It's just kinda an "out there" question.  Some would call me pretty; considering I'm a little heavier than I'd like to be, I'm not one of them.  I have self confidence, I'm resonably sociable, dark brown hair past shoulders, dark greyish, bluish, greenish eyes, pale skin, 5'7".  Botton line, I'm not a tomboy, I LOOK like a girly girl, even though I'm not one in my ideas (I'm pretty opionated and outspoken).  The other day in bioethics I made the statement that I think multiple offense rapists and pedofiles should be sterolized.  So would you feel intimidated by me?

Honestly, I've never felt threatened by the thought of dating a smart or successful woman.  It's also my honest opinion that that particular line of thinking is a cop-out, an excuse women use to avoid admitting they are doing something wrong.  \n\nExcuse me as I go on a tangent here, and don't take this personally(afterall I don't know you), however, every reasonablely attractive woman without serious issues that I've ever known who claimed to have problems finding men had several guys around that would consider dating her.  Yet, the women claim "there are no guys" as if these men don't even exist.  It's a form of dishonesty.  Obviously, successful people would (justifiably) have higher standards, but your typical female standard is pretty high to begin with.  A lot of the self proclaimed successful women I've known really don't give average guys a chance, then wonder why they can't find someone.  Another form of high standards lies in not offering anything to the relationship.  For example, demanding a guy wait 56 years before considering going sexual, refusing to tolerate "whining", etc.  It's important to have confidence, but it can be taken too far.  Just being around isn't really enough to justify a serious relationship for a lot of guys.\n\nA second potential problem is availability.  If you spend a lot of time at work advancing that career, and little at leisure, there aren't many opportunities for guys to approach.\n\nAnd of course one final potential snag is the old negative attitude.  Some people are just unpleasant to be around, because they nag, whine, or are dismissive of other people's feelings.  People may not come right out and tell you what turns them off.  It's tempting to assume you "know" and it's because those people have some insecurity, but that won't help you in the long run.


I know it's silly, but I think he is hot as hell! what u think???


Anybody? Black woman working for Republicans?

I think she is a Sellout because she is Black and a women. Either one makes you a sellout if you are republician. If you are rich then it is not so bad and I can understand. Rich people who are republicans are OK because they choose the party for financial reasons and not their backwards views on morality. Republicans hate change and they want things to "be the way they use to be." Unequal rights are the way it used to be and if republicans actaully believed they could reverse most of the progress made in this US in the last 100 years, they would!

I am a chem person doing a reaction under pseudo-first-order conditions. (i.e loss of starting material versus time should look like an exponential decay).. BUT ...\n\nI know one of the products of the reaction speeds up the consumption of starting material. What I observe is a linear decay (ie straight line) .. \n\nI tried modelling autocatalysis but that only gives sigmoidal curves, i want to make an exponential decay look linear from start of reaction to end using autocatalysis :)\n\nI know this may be confusing. But please somebody help :) You can also email me at ureymiller_at_yahoo_dot_com for further details.

If you have the reaction A + B -> C + D, under pseudofirst order conditions where B is in excess assuming a rate law of d[A]/dt = k[A][B] = k(obs)[A], observation of [A] should be a first order exponentional over time.  You can confirm the first order exponentional by plotting ln([A]) vs. time, which should be linear.  If you have some sort of autocatalysis - d[A]/dt = k[A][B][C], then the plot of ln([A]) vs. time will deviate from the linear with a larger deviation as the reaction progresses.  Another possibility other than autocatalysis for the not strictly linear log plot could be a change in the reaction medium as the reaction progresses.  If one of your products - say C - significantly more or less polar than A, you might be changing the rate of your reaction which the changing solvent mixture.


i think its because of their behavior what do u think? tell me

If your like me, Then it's because you have had some pretty nasty girlfriends who have used and abused you. Today's women can be modivated by greed, selfishness, and the desire to emotionally hurt men for the fun of it. \nBut it does not mean you have to fall for the same trap twice.  read "who moved the cheese" great book for changing your perception in life. \nThe sad part was I brought it on my self because of my low self esteem. \n\nThe best thing you can do is FLUSH the past and start with a clean slate. \nStart by reading books on Self Help, and work to rebuild your Imiage. Smart love is one good book to start with. but by it self it will not get you over the hump. \nAfter you read smart love start dating again. but this time follow some of the advice, and learn to prescreen your dates. your looking for certain things that wave the red flag about a girl, but you want to be subtle in your approace so the girls do not understand. (THE SMART ONES WILL THOUGH ) \nOnce you find a Lady who has passed the first screening, then you can persue this relationship and see what develops. What your looking for is can this woman meet your 5 basic "needs" if you marry her. ( suggest you abstain from sex until you feel she is worth marring her. ) this way you can see if she has the stability to meet the other 4 basic needs. The sex will take care of it self if she does. \nRead His Needs, Her Needs, to understand the differences between men and women in relation to the 5 Basic "NEEDS"\n\nAlso read 7 habits of highly effective people, by Covey\nThis is an AUSOME Book for learning good people skills. \n\n\nGood Luck and God's Blessing be with you.

I was sitting at the same table with two people who had a mutual interest in Zen. Their conversation did nothing but\nconfuse and irritate me. Could anyone enlighten me,in relatively simple terms,what Zen is all about?

Odd that you should use the phrase "enlighten me."\nMost Buddhists believe that the path to enlightenment is by following the way of faith and devotion to Divinity.  It depends upon one's interaction with the rest of humanity.\nZen is the path to enlightenment through intuition, meditation and self-contemplation.  It depends only upon the direct relationship one has with Divinity.  This bond is clearest when the mind is thought-free.


should i tell him that when we have sex at first time? men like virgin? or dislike? he always thinks that iam not a virgin. should i tell him?

By all means tell him now. He will either run or stay. You need to know which way he will go. It's important for the both of you.

It depends how the relationship between the parent and student is. You know all those drug commercials about the bossy parents who try to control the lives of their kids? I have seen by experience that those parents usually create the problems that they are suspecting, because the student thinks "If they already think I'm going to do drugs / sneak out / etc, why not just do it?" On the other hand, parents who are open with their kids, and firm but fair, and give good non judgemental advice usually have a pretty good chance of influencing decisions.

Should your arm take a big backswing or a little backswing?

I try to make my backswing as compact "small" as necessary so as not to fundamentally break down in my mechanics.  I always try to maintain a full follow through whenever possible.  Against serve and volleyers this can sometimes be tough.  With a smaller backswing it allows me more set up time so I can handle shots with lots of pace.  More often it is the clay court players that have longer backswings.  Growing up on hard-courts I have made mine more compact.

Is there a cost for swithching over? Will this effect my ein number? Looking for an answer as soon as possible. Thanks for the help.

Many entrepreneurs begin with a sole proprietorship, which is to say that they begin by doing business as the single owner of an unincorporated company. As such, a sole proprietorship is not a registered legal entity that is separate from its owner and therefore cannot technically be "changed" or converted to a limited liability company or a corporation, for that matter.\n\nInstead the sole proprietorship would cease to exist, and you would form a new LLC to conduct business. The cost involved comes from the filing of formal paperwork, usually called articles of organization, and the filing fee ranges from $40 to $900, depending on the state.


In recent answer someone claimed that new deposits of crude oil and coal had been formed by the Mount St Helens eruption.  This flies in the face of logic and what I know about geology, etc.  \n\nHas anybody here heard or seen any similar claims or rebuttals of this idea elsewhere?.  Can you provide references so I can follow this up?\n\nThe subject of the original question isn't important, but I want to check out the response which I believe is falsely being represented as the "truth" in order to make the facts fit their beliefs.

I live about 50 miles from Mt. St. Helens and can guarantee that no deposits of coal and/or oil have been found because of the 1980 eruption. In the first place, The Pacific Northwest has few if any coal or oil deposits, and to claim that St Helens produced any is a silly notion.

In my opinion, Avril Lavigne is the coolest punk-girl out there. shes perfect. perfect hair,eyes,smile,face, every thing. others think she is a poser. what do you think?

she disgustipates me. she's so f*ckin fake and not punk, but she desperately wants to be. any retarded monkey can write their own lyrics. most people don't pay attention to that anyway. as long as it has a melody that drunk white girls can dance to, its a hit! sadly the same thing is going on in rap and anyone with substance is overlooked


was see-ing a guy last summer for three months, he told me two weeks before he broke up with me that he was falling in love with me, then he said he wasnt ready for commitment and we split. Some other girl told him she fancied him and i think that made up his mind for him that he wasnt ready to be tied down. Hes not see-ing her or going out with anybody now but hes still in contact about once a week with me since last summer. Its never gone two weeks without him being in touch. I never contact first, its always his choice. I do reply to his sms etc but last week i decided that im not going to reply to him anymore. I havent seen him since we split and im glad because i think i still have feelings for him. He text on Valentines Day to wish me a nice one etc. Havent heard from him since but Im sure he'll be in touch this week. I think Im doing the right thing by giving up on him? Im kinda still heartbroken but i think im that way because hes still in touch with me?

Honesty is best.  Tell him that you are confused.  Ask what his intentions are for his keeping in touch.  Does he still have feelings for you?  Does he want to date you again?  Or is he keeping you close because he wants to be your friend?  Ask him straight up.  Then take it from there.


Given that Google stock is at $432 per share (granted they have fewer outstanding shares) and Yahoo stock is at $34 per share and they each have a P/E ration of 95.85 and 26.94 respectively, isn't Google "OVERPRICED" relative to what Yahoo!'s market-cap is?\n\nI've heard from others that both companies are EQUALLY priced (given the fewer number of outstanding shares.)\n\nWhat say you? :)

According to Yahoo finance: GOOG's PE is 50 with a PEG (PE to earnings growth ratio) of 2.25.  The same statistics for YHOO are 48 and 2.4, making the two stocks fairly comparable in these respects.  In addition, GOOG has less short interest than YHOO at present.  One major difference is that YHOO is more mature than GOOG and provides earnings guidance, making their stock movements likely less volatile.  Alternatively, the general expectation for GOOG is faster growth and penetration into new market segments for growth.  So, is GOOG overpriced now?  Probably not based on growth metrics, but clearly GOOG has higher expectations (at least prior to yesterday) and is more expensive than YHOO on fundamental valuation.  Both have good prospects in the long-term.


Like over the conuter and doctor order. Some people say all amphetamines do but you can get dite pills with that in them.

Not especially clear on what you're asking, but methamphetamine hydrochloride is available by prescription.  The trade name is Desoxyn.\n\nAnd you asked what types of drug is methamphetamine...it is a central nervous stimulant.  Means it gets you going, rather than slows you down.\n\nJust so I can say I said so: if you are thinking of messing around with this stuff, don't.  I have seen it ruin life after life after life, and nothing good comes from it.  Ever.

Gravity is what makes an object fall, and as it falls it gains energy.  Where does that energy come from?  If you say "the planet" then - When a rocket takes off against gravity, energy is added to the rocket but not taken from the planet, no?  Is there something about moving into stronger fields of gravity that adds energy to objects - also - time slows as the object moves into stronger gravity fields.  Is there a relation between the energy of a falling object gaining energy and time slowing?

It doesn't gain energy, but rather it gains velocity as gravity pulls down on it.  As it falls, the air below it pushes back against the gravity (called resistance), and the faster the object falls, the more air pressure pushes upward. This continues until their is a balance in force between the force of gravity and the force of resistance, at which time there is no increase in either pull on the object, and it remains traveling at that constant velocity until impact.  This concept is known as terminal velocity.


I am so tired of American Idol, every season it seems to become less and less entertaining. The first season was cool, but it was also original! Now I think the show is tired out and I personally wish they would end it already. I think the whole voting thing is just a sham as well and that everything is all predetermined. If you agree with me or not, let me know!

Yes I am sick of it.  I never liked it in the first place though!

Everytime they win a case in anything they are paid lots of money fees (paid from your tax dollars) so they keep suing for everything.

Please refrain from generalizations like that.\n\nMany law suits follow any public or private organization.\n\nThe scouting program won a case years ago that stated that the BSA is a PRIVATE organization. As such, they have control over their own membership requirements and actions.\n\nCivil Liablility Union has every right to find things that may be against ITS own beliefs. If ACLU choses to nit pick the private BSA group, then so be it.\n\nDo your best to give the scouts the best moral standards they deserve. Don't worry about what what another organization is suing for.


I would love to become a Business intelligence administrator i.e. Hyperion, Cognos, SAP, Business Objects, etc.  What do I needt to do to make the transition?

Hi, You need to find the skill sets for that position.  Once you do that you should try matching up your personal experience to those skill sets.  In regards to SAP it id very difficult to settle into that type of position because of the vast amount of experience that is needed.  You may want to start looking at vendors of SAP/ HYPERION/ HP and such, become an Account Manager and move into an analyst position that way.


yes its totally right now look at the difference carefully b/w muslims and non muslims. a girl gets nonvirgin the time she gets full mature and get married in islam but in the west countries lol. a girls gets out of being a virgin in high school and till the end of high school or university she has sex with even the gatekeeper of their campus. \nnow lets get serious , cant you look how islam is a clean religion it show the right path, its show everyone their objective in life wihtout any blame of sex having with someone.

If there are two dc motors.One comprising electomegnetic fied poles while the othrer uses permanent magnets as field poles .Both of them are of 5hp. whose effeciancy would be better,and what will the rate of differece be?

The DC motor with Permanent Magnets will be more efficient as the energy of DC supply for the poles will be used as available energy.\nThe motor would be a constant torque motor.There will be no compensation for commutation. The power will increase with armature voltage.\nWith Electromagnetic poles you can play a lot with the adjustments. A field weakening can increase speed of the motor at Constant HP.\nThis is a vast subject and lots of work has been done here.

Ex-wife make $70,000 a year i make $18'000 a year and pay $500 a month in child support and ex uses it for trip to cancun! What's a man to do???!!

Sorry this is so long, but bear with me.\n\nThe law begins with the premise that you are the father and share in the obligations of your own child's upbringing. What you are asking is to have an exception or an easing of the costs based on need because of financial strain or unfairness due to the inequity of paychecks. Your side will be the one to have to convince and persuade because her side has law. In the end, even a good persuasive argument may not stand if there are no laws with which to draw on in your favor.\n\nLook closely at your side then. I am not trying to attack your side by these questions. I am merely saying that such questions may be asked by the legal decision makers or legal financil aid providers and you need to know your side has the strength to convince. Here are some questions to be prapared on:\n\nIs your limited income due to irresponsibility - Did you have to get a new job because you were fired from your old one? Have you wasted reasonable opportunities to have a better job - For example, do you have a degree and qualifications for a better job but chose a low paying job instead?\n\nWill your income likely grow again in the near future - Eight years ago we moved to a new state and my husband had to begin over again on the payscale. We began that first year on less than 18K, but we moved up quickly to now being quite comfortable by regional average income standards. If you are likely to move up in pay, that will be taken into account especially if you are asking to be excused altogether from the burden of support.\n\nHow much money is needed to raise a child in the location in which this child is being raised - Surely 70K/year would be far in excess of expenses where we live and perhaps where you live. However, if your child is being raise in many of the large cities in the Northeast or California it may take about that much to survive there.\n\nIs the $70K all the income from your wife's side? Has she remarried and has her husband's income too? If so, is that 70K a combined income from her own and her husband's income?\n\nHave you provided more than monetary support? Have you been a father beyond the child support payment? If you have been actively engaged in your child's life you will have a more convincing argument than if you haven't had anything to do with him.\n\nWhat were the conditions leading to divorce? Obviously if divorce occured because she was unfaithful you will have a stronger side than if you were unfaithful or abusive. Some would think that if you messed up in these ways you made your own bed and by paying you are reaping what you have sown.\n\nHaving such information as her being able to afford Cancun while you are barely able to afford groceries is very helpful, but make sure no holes can be poked through it. Did she really use the child support money for that vacation? Was the vacation specifically in the child's interest. It doesn't sound like it, but again it is your side that will have to do the proving not hers.\n\nOK. That is the end of the questions. I hope you understand my motives are just to make you realize that you will be the one with the uphill battle. If you are using an overworked public attorney and she has an elite, smooth talking lawyer your side cannot afford to be unprepared for such questions.\n\nI do feel for you. I want to tell a true story that I feel applies when it comes to grace under unjust circumstances. I know a pastor who lovingly was counciling a man who asked him for help. This guy was having a secret affair with the pastor's wife the whole time that this pastor poured his energies into being a help to him. It all came out when she got pregnant. The pastor wanted to save the marriage in spite of it. Instead, she began lying and demanded a divorce. This poor man lost his pastorate becauset he congregation didn't want a divorced man leading their church. Because he lost that job, he couldn't get full custod


If someone holds their hand straight up, with their thumb and little finger out away from their 3 middle fingers close together, does this mean something in sign language?


In the last few years I have less and less taste for any sports. I don't spend money on anything sports. So I don't understand why so many people will spent litterally millions of dollars every single years on football when most of us can't afford a new car. I mean it seems like our priorities are weird in America. While people were watching the super bowl I was out maken money! Hehe, so go ahead, the more YOU watch the more money I made! I think the Superbowl is over rated.

The players are over rated so the Super Bowl is over rated.Most Super Bowls do not reach the hype that the media makes them out to be.Duane Thomas running back of the Dallas Cowboys was asked after winning the Super Bowl 1972 against Miami if this was the ultimate game and his response was,If this is the ulimate game,why do we have to play it again next year


Going to participate in a bowling benefit but don't know what scotch doubles, no tap & 3, 6, 9 frame bowling rules are. It's bad enough I have trouble breaking 100 when I bowl, I don't want to be ignorant of the game rules as well.

I think "scotch doubles" mean you alternate throws with your teammates. "No tap" is if you throw a 9 with your first ball, you automatically count a strike. 3,6,9 I have no clue about.

if I had a pound of gold and hurll it into space at lighning speed would i have more or less gold would i have created a large mas the size of the earth or will it reduce to the size of a proton.I am told that inertial & noniertial masses dont change,how could they be relative?

Relativistic mass is kind of an old concept.  In relativity, energy has inertia associated with it.  An object that is moving has more energy than an object at rest, thus it has more "mass" when it is moving than it does when it is sitting still.  A lot of the old scientists used to differentiate between rest mass and relativistic mass.  The relativistic mass was the extra inertia that the object had due to its motion.  Nobody really thinks about it this way anymore.  Einstein advocated only introducing the concept of rest mass.  This is because the rest mass is the same no matter what your reference frame is, but two observers in different frames won't always agree on the relativistic mass.  When you have a chunk of gold moving at close to the speed of light relative to you, you don't have more gold than you did when you were at rest.  The gold atoms just appear heavier because of their kinetic energy.   Likewise you aren't creating more protons, the protons that you have just look heavier.

I get it alot, and it sometimes blinds me from making good decisions. I try to stay calm, but I end up not being able to talk and let my fists do my talking for me.

Well, it's hard to say -- I'm a Anger/Rage Councelor and grew up with Anger/Rage issues and in a home with the same issues so I completely understand -- So it depends on the degree of the anger -- Is it anger or is it a rage? -- People always tell you that anger is wrong -- First of all it's not wrong, it's self defense -- Anger is not evil and it's alright to be angry -- It's what you do with the anger that creates the problems -- When a person is in full blown rage that rage has to be directed somewhere to begin with until it's learned response to control, which will come in time and with age -- I used to go and beat the heak out of pine trees (I hate pine trees) until I come down off the rage high -- And anger/rage does produce and give a high -- And those harmones have to be directed and dealt with -- Just having someone telling you to get over it only makes it worse (always made me worse because I had every right feeling the way I did) -- Then I learned how to identify the factors that would uncontiously lead me to those fits of anger -- I didn't know it at the time, and would have sworn nothing was causing it, but there was -- Frustration from other areas of my life caused it -- Not feeling in control of other areas of my life or things happening to me or to my family or in my family -- Things I couldn't control and things I'd never be able to control -- All I could control was my actions and reactions to things around me -- I could go on and on -- But I would suggest to get a book called "The Anger Workbook" and it will help you start identifing your anger stressers -- And if you would like to talk further you can contact me for free at theangelknight.com -- I have 25 years of counceling experience and a Bachelors Degree plus I'm a State approved Therapeutic Foster Parent -- Helping those with Anger/Rage issues is what I do -- Hope this helps -- Good Luck and Take Care --

They are protesting that they are wrong but are doing it by means portraied in them!  That isn't helping any at all.


I live near Kankakee, ILL, My question is where is to meet the ladies in this area?

What type are you looking for? Same as anywhere. Clubs, bars, churches, grocery stores, community events, libraries...


I ask this not because he is our Vice-President and a private citizen but if he was a regular average person who fail to pay the permit for shooting the quails. Should he get punishment like the rest of us? Should he have a misdemeanor criminal record?

No, he shouldn't.  It was an accident, and if you accidentlly did the same thing in the same circumstances, you wouldn't either.\nBy the way, he did have his hunting license.  He did not however have a stamp for the specific bird that he was hunting.  The stamp that was needed was something that they had just started requiring this year.  As with several other people before him, they are collecting the fee after the fact, because not many people know about it yet.\nSorry, this is something that they are going to be able to throw the Vice President into jail for.  I know this distresses you.


Esmeralda sings a song called "God help the outcasts"


I still love him, but he told me "I meet this one girl" so he left me. I miss him day by day. I'm always thinking about him and checkin my phone trying to see if he has text me but nothing has happen. I want to text him but then he might think I want to get back with him. Although I do I don't want him to know. Should I text him or let him go although its hard. He puts this girls to call me Just to fuck around. I text him talking shit but i dont know what to do. What should I do????

It is hard, but you need to accept the fact that it is over.  The easiest way to start the process is to delete his number out of your cell.  Yep delete it.  You can't stare at it for hours if you don't have his number anymore.  You can't call him/text him and make a fool out of yourself.  \n\nListen to sappy melodramatic cds (early Sarah McLaughlin is a favorite), cry, be bummed.  Eating lots of fattening foods.  Talk your friends ear off.  Put all the stuff he ever gave you (including pictures of you two) in a shoe box and shove it under your bed.  Watch depressing movies.  \n\nIt sucks, but it is a process and you need to just go through it.  It's how we learn and grow.  Over time, it will hurt less and less until years later, you take out that shoebox and go "what a loser!  what was I thinking!?!"


Ive never orgasimed is something wrong with me?\nDuring sex and oral ive never orgasimed or cumed. How can i get there. Tips and advice greatly appreciated\nIm a girl

RELAX. Don't worry. Out of the ladies I met, more than 50% of them have this problem. My solution is, have longer oral sex, say for example an hours oral sex. Ask ur b/f to suck your entire body especially ask him to spend more time licking ur private parts. ask him to penetrate his tongue deep into ur private part. I bet surely u will get orgsm.. there after have internal sex. again u will get orsm..

They sell pepper spray that is supposed to be used by hikers against bears.  I was wondering if it could be used on humans if somebody breaks into my house.  It shoots 20-30 feets which would be pretty nice.

Well if it'll stop a bear at 20 feet... but you have to remember that no matter what you shoot at someone you are going to be responsible for any consequenses... They'd have to be actually killing you for you to get away scott free... If you spray someone for breaking in to your house they'll sue your butt even if it is self defence or to protect your property...


The question is, are there any companies that do this type of work?

It doesn't look like something I would enjoy but if it appeals to you, give it a shot.  However, if they ask you to pay up front, that would be my invitation to say goodbye.  If they are hiring employees, why gives them the right to charge you for traing?  You wouldn't let an offline company do that, would you?\n\nTo me it makes more sense to find someone who is making the kind of money and living the lifestyle you want and finding out how they are doing it.  Do something that matches your personality and your skills.

My USB port on my laptop says it isn't a USB 2.0 port so it won't work with my Ipod or external Hard drive when I try to plug them into it. It's a few ytears old. How do I go about upgrading this? My friend told me I just need to download some drivers but I've looked on the internet and I can't find anything on how to do it. Someobody Help me please!!

Software upgrade is useless (but can be done anyway). The only upgrade i can recommend is to get a PCMCIA USB 2.0 adapter card. But be aware that with this card the speed (e.g. with an external hard disk) will only be increased about 6 times and not 40 times like many vendor promise (PCI specifications for notebooks - they are hardly known!).\n\nPCMCIA USB 2.0 adapter\nhttp://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16839101111


I am doing a homework assign, and I need to know that it is ok for those who have Asthma to get a theraputic massage.

Asthma can be beneficial to those that have asthma.  Regular massage seems to decrease the frequency and intensity of the asthma attacks. According to a massage therapist, eucalyptus drops if put in the massage oil when treating a client with asthma is probably the most effective scent to help reduce the severity of an attack. It can also help to prevent attacks starting by keeping airways moist and so decreasing upper respiratory tract infections. It is also very effective on the back and neck muscles. Of course, it is wise to ask your doctor first if this is ok in your particular case of asthma.


I hate listening to everyones profile songs when i'm on myspace, but i listen to my own music on winamp when i'm on the site, and whenever i go to someones profile it always autoplays their music...i want to stop that!! how?? i turned off sounds and videos from the advanced internet options but it iddn't change anything (tried restarting too).  That just turns off like background wav sounds, this is all streaming music/videos that i want to stop playing.  Most of it uses a shockwave player, and some of it uses wmplayer videos.  PLEASE HELP its soooooooooo annoying

Just hit the stop button on the shockwave player on that page.


Hurricane Katrina was a natural catastrophy that troked the southern part of the United Staes of America;specifically the state of Texas.Most of the citizens living in  this state were rendered homeless.There was an out cry from the victims and the world at large on why it took the government long to rescue the situation;or why did the government not forsaw the dangers of the approaching hurricane, being endowed with modern technological warning devices.Most of these victims don,t no where to go to.Some of them patch up with friends and relatives while others in deserted ghetoes and caravans at the outskirt of their towns.I will like to know the actions taken by the government so far to see that these victims are actually treated well.Please send your answers through my e-mail address;olingesfr2000@yahoo.com Thanks

Reaction was not slow. Implementation and action was slow. Politics got in the way of many things when it should not have.\n\nMistakes were made, but the good thing is that change will result because of it. It must be remembered though that mistakes happen in dealing with ANY crisis. I don't care if it is government, business, or personal. Nothing can be predicted 100%. Influence and control within organizations is also never 100%.\n\nI do not think that there was any conspiracy though. Nothing against African Americans, or New Orleans itself. There was no ill will by Bush, nor by the administration, nor by FEMA, nor by local authorities. Stuff just went wrong.


My 12 year old has suddenly taken an interest in sex and babies.  She knows a lot about it, I mean I have talked to her and all I got her some books, but she is like.....I dont know how to put it. When she gets around babies she can only talk about them, even when she sees them on TV. I am afriad she likes them too much and at age 14 (or something like that) she will get pregnant. Am I just being paranoid?

You arent being paraniod. Tell her that babies arent just cute to hold and rock to sleep. Tell her that she wont have ANY time for herself, and if the boy caves in and leaves (which he prob. will) she will be alone in raiseing the baby. Tell her she should wait until she is both physically possible and finacually stable with a nice man to have a baby. Tell her all about STDs. Tell her it is a woderful thing to have a baby....when she is ready to have one.


I fell in luv w/ 2 gurls. 1 of them is me bestfriend, Maria. the other 1 is just a friend. Maria know that i like her. my other friend don't know i like her I known me Maria for 2 yrs. I known me other friend for 3 days. What should i do? go out w/ both of them?

Go with Maria, she knows you best and as for beingin love in 3 days, cant happen. Stick with Maria, it's your safest and most intelligent choice.


Can you just be a little more neat than other people?  My friend thinks I have OCD because I go a little crazy cleaning and like things in a certain order.  I've read a little bit about it and saw the MTV True Life on OCD and I'm so not that bad.  Besides keeping everything clean and organized, I just don't like water spots, labels or label residue, I like things to line up straight like remote controls, my money in order in my wallet, my gum to come out of the package the right way etc. etc.  Is that normal?

Sure, all mental illnesses can have varying degrees.  Some of your behaviors could be described as OCD-like, but I think the important questions to consider here are: 1) are your "compulsions" interfering with your daily life (do you spend hours and hours making sure each little thing is just perfect), 2) would you consider any of your habits to be harmful (as in washing one's hands 30 times a day to the point where your skin is irritated), and 3)are the things that you are doing actually compusive, or rather just personal preferences that are no cause for alarm?  It sounds, from your breif description, that your habits are merely habits.  Some people enjoy varying degrees of cleanliness and organization, and you just might be at one end of the spectrum.  Unless your cleaning preferences are really disruptive, it sounds like you're just a person who enjoys a certain order in their life.

I have a 800x600 graphic that I want to use as a background for my homepage, how do I do it in dreamweaver where it fills the browser no matter what the visitors resolution.  Do I have to use CSS?

That's a really bad idea. By making an image a certain size as a background image you are limiting the number of people that can visit your homepage. Also an image that size would have a very large file size. Very large file sizes like that will exceed the data transfer limit most hosts give ytou very quickly. Also some one using a dialup internet connection will curse you when they visit your site because it would probably take 20 or 30 minutes for the image to load. Aren't visitors hard enough to get as it is?


I'm at school and a jacka$$ has locked the background picture. Is there a way to get around it or at least screw with the guy?

No, not if he knows what he is doing and has put in the correct GPO.


I have been confused for a while on this. Of course the English settlers that came to North America had a British accent. They fought the Revolutionary War and called themselves Independent Americans. Where did the accent go over a long period of time?

Interesting question.  As you know, language is a living thing. When people settle in regions, they interact closely, and their language subtly shifts.  (That's why Boston, New York, the South etc. have distinctive accents).  Over time, there is more differentiation-and the original accent is blended into a "new accent".  With English, you can see that happened in Australia, New Zealand, India and South Africa (and elsewhere) as well.

ALL I WANT TO BE IS A GOOD FOLLOWER OF THE LORD.

I like what has been said.  The whole point of being a Christian (past the salvation part) is to become like Christ.  How do you do this??  Good suggestions have been given, and here are some more:\n-get into the Word every day.  God is going to talk to you through the ultimate "user manual".  \n-Get plugged into a Bible based church.  Get involved!!!  \n-Be open to letting the Spirit help you in life with making choices and reaching out to others.\n-Memorize Scripture- that helps write His Word on your heart, and you will pull that out of your memory when you least expect to.\n-Clean up your "house" bit by bit.  If you wear clothes that are making guys think unholy thoughts, make the choice and wear something else.  If you have a potty mouth, bite your tongue.  We ALL have things that we are working on.  Others will see this change in you, and see how Christ is changing you.  \n-praise God all throughout the day, this helps focus on what He has made good.\n\nI have been praying for you already!


Anyone have any idea what it's called in Japan (in romanji please)? I'm having trouble finding out and require it for visa purposes. I've heard that it's called a "zaishokushomeisho", but I don't think that's it. Please help urgently.

It could be Shugyoushoumeisho or Zaishokushoumeisho.


i watched the movie and thought is there any1 that thinks like me or not. see i have a always thought of the US as a superior nation with most of the technology and all. what if the US uses this technology to make money or even to make weapons?i ont no maybe somethings wrong with me

Not really sure what the question is here, but yes the US does build weapons and tries to use it's resources to make money. Unfortunately the US also likes to start wars, which eat up both resources, money, and weapons. \n\nSo to answer your question I did see "The Island", I thought it was a waste of two good actors in a dumb movie with bad special effects.


i was just wondering b-cuz somone said somthing about a .mp4 file! i thought there was only mp2 mp3 and was it mp1?

MP4 is the newest version. Unlike a MP3, it can show audio and video. It has a better compression rate than MP3. Most of the newer burning software can produce a MP4.


After signing on with Yahoo for E mail and successfully sending and receiving for two weeks, I suddenly stopped receiving. my friends receive my mail but when they reply they receive a message stating 'unable to deliver'. How do I contact Yahoo to resolve this problem. I've followed all the Help desk directions but can't find a solution.

The problem is on Yahoo's end, not yours. If they can't get their act together (which they've been struggling with lately), then think about switching to Gmail instead. \n\nYou can sign up for Google's Gmail here:\n\nhttps://www.google.com/accounts/ServiceLogin?service=mail&passive=true&rm=false&continue=http%3A%2F%2Fmail.google.com%2Fmail%2F%3Fui%3Dhtml%26zy%3Dl&ltmpl=yj_wsad&ltmplcache=2


At my house, I pick up cheese on these small wooden plates. Some metal piece always lands on my head. Don't the humans who live here understand thats detrimental to my health ?

Never take cheese off of one of those.  I learned that the hard way!  You can stick a stuffed toy or something in there to get the metal part to come down.  And then you can get the cheese free of pain.  Those humans who live in your house will be so dumbfounded!  Be sure to watch from around the corner when they come and find that you've outsmarted them.  It is so funny!!!!!!


May be cause my character rather to shy,I can`t to associate with my friend.I like alone.So I think,like that I get a big troubles,I can`t find a way out,I`m so disappointed.I`m only to brave to come in chating.May be I can to get a frieng who can help me to solves my problems.  I1m really down.Thanks

Its OK to be shy, so what if it takes you a while to feel comfortable with new people and new situations. In fact, it can even be helpful to be a little shy. When you're shy, you may spend a little extra time observing the scene before jumping right into it. And you're unlikely to talk to strangers, which you shouldn't do anyway!\nLook up - affirmations - they are good for all of us.\nTell someone about this if your depressed and talk to them. A parent, friend, teacher. Good luck to you and don't worry. Friends happen.


By the way, you can add bases(facts) if you want to back yourself up...

Absolutely a cult. Just because people are considered stars doesn't mean they're considered well educated or intelligent. Consider the high profile people who tout scientology who are also getting publicity for jumping on sofa's on national television.  That don't impress me much!  It is unfortunate that so many otherwise logical people are so deceived. I believe that Jesus Christ is the only one who raised from the dead...I mean aren't all of the others dead...budda, confusious, etc...People need to get into the truth, not into what just "feels good"...Perception of the truth does not alter the truth...give Jesus a call...he's expecting you...

i cant help flirting it is in my nature and the guy that i have a crush on plays the guitar and i am very lost and i dont know what to do. he is a grat guy and all but i get the feeling that he likes me and wants to ask me out but he cant bcuz i have a bf and he is respecting that. thank god but i need advice on what to do. my bf is the greatest guy in the world but i am lost help me find my way out of the darkness!!

If your boyfreind were the greatest guy in the world to you , you would not be flirting with other guys, socializing maybe but certainly not thinking about being with them. OOPS, sounds like you got attached to soon. You really should not commit yourself unless you are ready to COMMIT. If you are not prepared to be faithful and serious about your current relationship, then end it, if the guy your with is that great let him go so he can find a girl who is worthy of him.

We hear so much about separation of church and state. However, we let the government come right into our homes when it controls marriage.Shouldn't marriage and divorce just be a mutual agreement between two people, and between two people and the court system?

I already keep the state out of my marriage. I would like to think I am responsible enough to maintain my marriage without the government butting in. But I think that a lot people need someone/thing to act as a mediator when their marriages dissolve, so they turn to the state. Doesn't mean they should, but...


I have hyperthyroidism and am trying to find out the foods I can and cannot eat. Also if there might be a natural cure instead of surgury.\nI hope someone has some answers thanks.

Kelp is very good for the Thyroid and helps speed it up because it contains natural iodine.You will also want to include plenty of other seafoods and sea vegetables such as dulse,nori,arame,and ocean fish.Avoid goiterogenic foods that suppress thyroid function such as Cabbage,Soy products,Raw broccoli and Raw cauliflower.Increase protein intake as its essential for thyroid function.And be sure to include plenty of green vegetables.L-tyrosin is also a good one for thyroid function.Many people have success with the natural thyroid Armour rather then synthroid.

Unemployment Insurance Taxes\n\nUnemployment Insurance (UI) is a federal-state program jointly financed through federal and state employer payroll taxes (federal/state UI tax). Generally, employers must pay both state and federal unemployment taxes if: (1) they pay wages to employees totaling $1500, or more, in any quarter of a calendar year; or, (2) they had at least one employee during any day of a week during 20 weeks in a calendar year, regardless of whether or not the weeks were consecutive. However, some state laws differ from the federal law and employers should contact their state workforce agencies to learn the exact requirements.\n\n\nFederal Unemployment Tax Act\n\nThe Federal Unemployment Tax Act (FUTA), authorizes the Internal Revenue Service to collect a federal employer tax used to fund state workforce agencies. Employers pay this tax annually by filing IRS Form 940. FUTA covers the costs of administering the UI and Job Service programs in all states. In addition, FUTA pays one-half of the cost of extended unemployment benefits (during periods of high unemployment) and provides for a fund from which states may borrow, if necessary, to pay benefits.\nFederal Tax Rate\n\nThe FUTA tax rate is 6.2% of taxable wages. The taxable wage base is the first $7,000 paid in wages to each employee during a calendar year. Employers who pay the state unemployment tax, on a timely basis, will receive an offset credit of up to 5.4% regardless of the rate of tax they pay the state. Therefore, the net federal tax rate is generally 0.8% (6.2% - 5.4%). This would equate to a maximum of $56.00 per employee, per year (.008 X $7,000. = $56.00) in federal tax. State tax rates are based on requirements of state law. A table of current tax rates and taxable wage base information for individual states is available in this web site under, “On This Page” Tax Statistics 2002.\nState Unemployment Tax\n\nThe state Unemployment Tax, paid to state workforce agencies, is used solely for the payment of benefits to eligible unemployed workers.\nDomestic Employers Coverage\n\nEmployers of domestic employees must pay state and federal unemployment taxes if they pay cash wages to household workers totaling $1,000, or more, in any calendar quarter of the current or preceding year. A household worker is an employee who performs domestic services in a private home. Examples of household employees are: babysitters, caretakers, cleaning people, drivers, nannies, health aides, yard workers and private nurses.\nEmployers of Agricultural Employees\n\nEmployers must pay federal unemployment taxes if: (1) they pay cash wages to employees of $20,000, or more, in any calendar quarter; or, (2) in each of 20 different calendar weeks in the current or preceding calendar year, there was at least 1 day in which they had 10 or more employees performing service in agricultural labor. The 20 weeks do not have to be consecutive weeks, nor must they be the same 10 employees, nor must all employees be working at the same time of the day.\n\nGenerally, agricultural employers are also subject to state unemployment taxes, and employers should contact their state workforce agencies to learn the exact requirements.\n\nThe Federal Unemployment Tax Act imposes on every employer an excise tax of 6.2 percent (percentage may change from year to year) of the total wages paid by him during a calendar year with respect to employment. Under the Federal Act, the employer is allowed credit against the Federal tax in the amount of contributions paid by him into the unemployment fund under a state unemployment insurance law. This means that an employer’s Federal unemployment tax rate will be 0.8 percent of the total wages paid by him for employment; provided, he has paid contributions to the South Carolina Employment Security Commission as required under the South Carolina Employment Security Law.\n\nIn South Carolina, the normal tax rate for a new employer under the South Carolina Emplo

If its a particular kind of email with 3 such crosses next to each other, please note that it is spurious - you'll be better off deleting the mail ASAP. \n\nHowever, if the mail is from a trusted source and you have no reason to suspect the contents of the mail, either viewing of the image is restricted on your computer for some reason or the image is not present at the location it was supposed to be. In the first case, try opening the mail on another PC (preferably) from another location and seeing if you get lucky. In the second case, ask the sender of the mail to check with the image that s/he is trying to send via the mail. Probably ask for the mail to be sent again.


hi!\n\nCan someone help me with this problem\nlim (squere root(x^2+2x)-x)\nx goes to infinity\n\nthanks..

The limit for x --> infinity is 1:\n\nmultiply and divide by (sqrt(x^2 + 2x) + x) to get a difference of two squares at the numerator:\n\nyou now have \nlim[((x^2 + 2x) - x^2)/(sqrt(x^2 + 2x) + x)]\n\nthis is equal to \nlim[2x/(sqrt(x^2 + 2x) +x)]\n\nfor x-->infinity, you must compare the coefficients of the terms of higher grade at num and den.\nnumerator: you have only 2x\ndenominator: you have a sqrt(x^2 + 2x) which is sqrt(x^2) + somewhat which has order of infinity equal to x^(1/2), and an additional + x\nso at the denominator you have 2x + O(x^(1/2))\n\nAs the num and den in your limit have the same order of infinity, you get the limit as the ratio of the coefficents: 2/2 = 1

How is it even possible?\n\n I read something about this on Space.com a while back-I forget the details but some scientists had actually done this. I'm not a scientist,so will admit I'm uninformed about\na lot of scientific facts,and this blew my mind.\n Does this mean the Theory of Relativity is going to the same place as the theory that Earth is the center of the universe,or does it fit in somehow?

light rays do not move faster or slower than the speed of light.  the speed of light is the speed of light, period.\n\nthat said, light often travels *slower* than c, which is a constant defined as the speed of light IN A VACUUM, approximately 3x10^8 m/s.  here is a way you can actually observe some honest-to-god light traveling slower than c:\n\nstep 1.  find a window.\nstep 2.  look at it.\n\ncongratulations, you have observed light traveling slower than c.  in ANY medium (air, glass, water - you name it) the speed of light is slower than the speed of light in a vacuum.  \n\nin fact, the so-called index of refraction (n, which equals 1.4 for glass) is defined as the ratio of c to the speed of light in that material.  generally, denser materials have a higher index of refraction, and people have been able to make light go REALLY slow by making some very dense materials.  all of this is perfectly consistent with general relativity.\n\nas for FASTER than c:  under certain conditions, it is possible to make photons with a "phase velocity" that is greater than c.  however, when people speak of the speed of light, they usually refer to the "group velocity".  the distinction between phase velocity and group velocity is kind of technical; but phase velocity refers to the speed at which the individual phase fronts propagate through space.  \n\nit is possible to make these phase fronts go faster than c; but because the energy or information or whatever carried by the light travels at the group velocity, the actual speed (as far as stuff like general relativity is concerned) is still less than c.\n\nanyway, all of these results are entirely consistent with general relativity.  in fact, i don't know of any published results of a scientific experiment which are not consistent with GR.  \n\nthe fact that einstein's theory, largely concocted out of the blue from basic principles and logical reasoning, has stood the test of time for so many years is a testament to the genius of the man's work.\n\nhere are some links to learn about phase velocity, group velocity and the speed of light:\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group_velocity\nhttp://physicsweb.org/articles/news/4/7/8/1


Marine officers who’ve deployed to a combat zone since Sept. 11, 2001, are nine times more likely to receive the Bronze Star with combat “V” than enlisted Marines involved in the same operations, according to Marine Corps statistics.

In the event this allegation is true, and it probably makes sense that it is, it is officers who make the decision on who gets what.  It stands to reason that they take care of their own, first.  It seems to me the most hazordous job in the Marine Corps is that of a Lance Corporal.  Look at any cauality list, the majority hold that rank.  On that basis, you would think the majority of medals for valor would go to enlisted men, especially those who suffer the most, Lance Corporals. There is politics everywhere!


Satzin, thank you for answering my first question. I did everything you said and I did change the value to 1 but it's still not working. Now the first file that comes up when I run the regedit says : AB Default REG_SZ (value not set) it's the very first file that comes up. Autorestartshell is set at 1, is that wrong? Shutdownwithoutlogon is set at 1. Allocatedcdroms set at 0, (my cdrom is not working and D drive is gone! That was my fault I think)and when I startup my computer, for some reason the "My Computer" window comes up for no reason. Help, please, anyone? Thanks so much everyone.

im surprised somebody wont help this sweet lady...come people !


Are you bisexual or not? Do you support it? ><<>><><><><> why or why not?>?

i support it when the bisexuals are girls .i find it discusting when the bisexuals are man u may find my answer bios but thats what i like


I don't think that anyone knows for sure! Everyone thinks that their answer is correct, but everyone is saying something different.  But let's face it: It's going to happen if it hasn't happened already!


What software:\n   Recovery Tools\n   Antivirus\n   Firewall\n   zip utilities\n   download software\n   etc...?

First of all, depending upon what problems were afoot (i.e. is the hard drive failing?), I would definitely have the following:\n\na) a bootable disk image (Norton's Ghost for a baseline), a bootable CD with the same OS and a folder with a complete set (even if not necessarily up to date) of all the drivers for the machine and a recovery (or at least bootable floppy).\n\nb) A text file saved somewhere which contains your software keys for any downloaded or installed software, as well as information to get you back on the network, such as your WEP key if you have wireless or any IP addresses you need to manually configure;\n\nc) A folder (which I usually contain on my main drive partition) with useful command prompt utilities (usually InfoZIP for compression, and Borland's GREP nowadays);\n\nd) A disk with all the freeware utilities; and if you can afford it, the commercial system recovery tools from SysInternals.\n\nI've provided a link to (d) below.


This is a longstanding argument I've had with some friends, I won't corrupt the answers by giving my opinion.

It's not gay in any way.  It shows that you take an interest in your personal hygene and most women prefer that because they know that the person they are dealing with takes hygene seriously.  It also feels and looks better.


cheating, didnt count the hanging chads, his brother was the governor of texas...etc.  I wonder what excuses they will give?

That more people voted Republican than Democrat.  The Democrats have not yet learned that the country is in fact becoming more conservative each day.  This would not be a problem if the Democrats would run a more moderate candidate with a moderate platform.  The reason this will not happen is Howard Dean is chairman of the Democrat party and will have a liberal platform that only a liberal candidate can even try to sell.


i really want to find her but i cant remember her last name i need help i was wondering if i could some how look up old year books to find out her last name?

Did you try Classmates.com? That's a great site!


ice skate, bike riding, roller skating, jump rope with multiple players, sandlot softball, snowball fights, shoot marbles, skeetching from back fenders while sitting on the metal lid of a garbarge can.

Ohh man hahahaha when I was a kid I use to gather up with my friends and play hide and seek all day, and when it was night we use to catch lighting bugs, ohh yeah and I use to collect the Ice cream sticks that had the figure of the "looney tunes" and if you got the one of "bugs bunny" you got a free ice cream... GREAT TIMES


I briefly dated a wonderful, smart, handsome, caring, etc. guy who had a lot going for him.  When he started to introduce me to his family, I noticed a loss of interest.  You see, SEVERAL of his immediate family members suffered from genetic disorders.  Although he was perfectly healthy, I couldn't stop thinking about what would happen if we had kids together?

Actually I don't think it is shallow at all.  What is wrong with dealing with reality?  If you know what you want, and that is to be married and have children, why waste your time with someone that you are not going to have that with?\nI think you were protecting yourself from making a selfish mistake in the future: risking having children doomed to have problem.\nI think you did the right thing, and shouldn't be ashamed of it.


Is Bush going the right way handling the problems with terrorism?

Well I can give you an opinion of someone who has been there and is currently in Afghanistan. It sucks having to help people one day (ie.. give food, medical attention, clothes...) only to see the same person the next day shooting at you or your friends. Why help people who hate us so much? Because if we left here right now there would be more death and destruction than Sadom could have inflicted in a 100 yrs. There are many ways to answer this pro and con, but that is just what I have to deal with every day.        \n\nBUSH ROCKS!! (not)

i have a big problem in communicating with others..i dont like to lie..i dont like to say bad things to ppl..although all my friends do..so when talking with others,i dont know wat to say..\nppl likes me from the first impression..i am cute and polite,but they get bored after talking with me.\ni still young(18)..and this is a v.big problem for me..so i need ur help,ppl.

don't change who you are but just be yourself, that's all you need to do. Just be yourself and don't worry too much about what you might say wrong otherwise it will affect you badly. Just be yourself.


we are a swing couple and we are trying to find other couples like ourselves to chat,cam and even meet.we fine that with all the games being played in this type of environment people are doutful that we are a real couple and may not even believe we are a male/female couple.Now to make matters worse we have a list of people on our 360 and none of them went to chat or e-mail us what do we do?

It really depends on where you are meeting these people. Most "social networking" sites and general "dating" sites have a prevalance of fakes, wannabes and picture collectors - thus leading to the type of cautious behavior you are describing.\n\nSites like myspace.com, yahoo, etc. are not really designed for swingers.\n\nMy advice is to find an actual swingers site, and connect with other couples there.\n\nParticipate in discussion forums, and as an active member of the site and you will soon develop a reputation as a "Real" couple.\n\nSome sites even have a "Certification" system, where other couples and people who know you can "Certify" that you are real.


today we have fire alarm at work place and we go to outside. one girl is beside me .after fire alarm she talking with one guy that she love my mouth, that will be taste good and she want to kiss my mouth and my tooth are so lovely and smell good.and she said she want to put her nose in my mouth for more than one hour because she want the smell of my mouth. \nSO WHAT CAN I DO FOR THAT?

This girl might like you and might think you have a great looking mouth and want to kiss you. But, put her nose in your mouth for a hour? I don't think so! This guy might be playing mind games with you. Girls don't talk like that about a guy to other guys.


The first African civilization after Egypt was built by an Egyptianized people who lived between the Nile River's first and third cataracts and spoke Nilo-Saharan languages. This region around the first cataract, called Nubia, had been conquered and colonized by Egypt in the fourth millenium BC. Because of this, Egyptian civilization diffused southward and a new African kingdom was built up in the floodplain around the Nile's third cataract: the Kush. Their capital city was Kerma and it served as the major trading center for goods travelling north from the southern regions of Africa. \n\n   Kush attained its greatest power and cultural energy between 1700 and 1500 BC during the Third Intermediate period in Egypt. The domination of Egypt by the Hyksos allowed Kush to come out from under the hegemony of Egypt and flower as a culture; this period ended, however, when the New Kingdom kings, having thrown the Hyksos out of Egypt, reconquered Kush and brought it under Egyptian colonial rule. \n\n   However, when the New Kingdom collapsed in 1000 BC, Kush again arose as a major power by conquering all of Nubia. The conquest of upper Nubia, which had been in the hands of the Egyptians since the fourth millenium, gave to Kush wealthy gold mines. \n\n   Following the reassertion of Kushite independence in 1000 BC, the Kushites moved their capital city farther up the Nile to Napata. The Kushites by and large considered themselves to be Egyptians and the proper inheritors of the pharoanic titles and tradition. They organized their society along Egyptian lines, assumed all the Egyptian royal titles, and their architecture and art was based on Egyptian architectural and artistic models. Their pyramids were smaller and steeper and they introduced other innovations as well, but the Napatan culture does not on the surface appear much different than Egyptian culture. \n\n   The Kushites even invaded and conquered Egypt in a magnificent irony of history. The Napatan kings formed the twenty-fifth pharaonic dyansty in the eighth century; this dynasty came to an end with the Assyrian invasion of Egypt in the seventh century BC.

Does accounts with high limits and low balance hurt it more?

Absolutely, it does. If you want to get credit, those nasty medical bills need to be paid off. My suggestion would be for you to pick 1 or 2 bills per payday (depending on how much they are) and pay them. After a while, they'll be taken care of, and you will be able to get credit. Good luck!

i have only just finished the book for the 4th time, seriously, its making me think 2wice about some things, whats your opinion...

Finally, a book with some truth to it.\n\nYou need to understand that only the characters, their actions, and the plot is fictional.  \n\nThe things which are making you think twice about are the actual facts.  Just so you know for instance, Venus does make a pentagram across the sky (thank you astronomy 101), the Priory of Sion is factual (thank you masonic history studies), catholic schools used to not allow left handers to write with their left hand (in medical terms, the left eye is called "oculus sinister" the left hand is called "manual sinister", the left foot is called "pedis sinister").  Catch the drift??  Left is evil, (in it's root word which comes from Latin) "thank you 4 years of latin".\n\nI hope the book helps you understand that history is written by the winners.  In Jesus's time, he was not the only person selling a new religious philosophy.  There were many others.  So you had the chance to "pick the new fad".  Why do you think it took 1300 years after his death for a catholic church to form?\n\nThe book should not make you drop religion, Dan Brown does not suggest that, and it's included with the book and it appears on his web page.  Instead, it should help you understand history a little more.\n\nIn case you didn't know, his previous book 'Angles & Demons' should be read before 'The DaVinci Code'.


Just wondering, because it's very cliche and is said to be appreciated, but how many of you would really go for chocolates? If they aren't your thing, then what is a better alternative?

I'm diabetic so no chocolate for me!  My fiancee usually gets me fake flowers, a fruit basket (good for you and tastes good!) and a stuffed animal of some kind.  I LOVE those!

Portuguese is spoken in Brazil, therefore they r not hispanics, but r they latin americans?

Yes, because they speak a language that derives from Latin and they live in the American continent. It sounds quite obvious to me!


i'm reaserching for my school:we have a class presentation and it's about my question.i'm grade 5,by the way

Budget\nSet your goals - What do you want to buy?\nWhat is your income?\nWhat do you have to spend - food, transport, clothing, tax.\nHow much can I save each week.\nCan I save enough to get what I want, when I want it.\nCan I allow for some extra spending and still reach my goal.


the only thing you need to do is say "No thanks.  Im not interested".  Ive never known anyone to CONTINUE with trying to share their religion if you say that.

Christians should be teaching by example.  Their lives and the way they live it is the best teacher you can have.  If someone is discussing or ask a question I will answer.  But I DO NOT push.  If they are not interested then you are not the person to teach them.  Someone will come along that is the right person at the right time that has been chosen by God.


i enjoy realistic fiction, long books, harry potter type books, chapter books, books like maniac magee, fav author is jerry spinelli, has to be a chapter book, i am a young adult so dont make it too hard, suspence, adventure, and i just finished the city of ember and the city of sparks witch were fantastic! Thanks for helping!

im reading the mates,dates series by cathy hopkins. i love them its defenitly not like harry potter but they're funny and i enjoy them.


I'm imagining two beams of light or emr, A and B. A goes on a straight line. B intercepts A at 30 degrees, and has a property that makes A actually refract, changing its angle, creating a similar effect as putting a prism in the path of A. IS this possible, perhaps with wave interference? This would be a principle for building a "remote radar" type of device, that would allow you to scan far away objects or places and change your point of view without being there.

No, one of the defining properties of a photon is that two or more are capable of simulatenously existing at the same co-ordinates. As such they can't possibly intercept each other or cause refraction since that requires either that they bounce of one another or else slow one another down. Neither is possible if they are to continue being capable of coexiting at the same location.\n\nPhotons can certainly interfere with each other, but only to the extent of increasing or decreasing amplitude, not wavelength or direction. At best you could theoretically reduce the amplitude of one source to zero, thus making it cease to exist, or alternatively boost the amplitude for a stronger signal.

My b/f is 34 and he has never been in a real relationship before...I was his first everything...things have been pretty rough for us lately and I just wnat to know if we did break up would he think of me often and keep coming back to me evenentually? I don't wanna break....I was just wondering if I was something he would never give up?

I still remember my first girlfriend.  We were in first grade, sat next to each other, took nap time near each other, first kiss... her name was Angela and she looked like an angel.  That was about 30 years ago. :)


my cat fur on his back has all matted, almost looks glued together. anyone know why or how to treat it.

They don't clean themselves properly.  You need to have the matts removed and them brush cat on a daily basis to prevent it from happening again.


how do i find out if old comics are worth anything

Do an advanced search on eBay for completed items.\n\neBay is a good indicator of the current value of most items.


I bring this up because I posted an opinon where I said something to the effect of:\nRap is the easiest way to become famous, because most rappers tend to focus more on their image than acctually having talent. \nNow I can't remember what question I posted it too, so I don't remember exactly what I said but the next answerer seemed to take what I said as an attack on rap, so I want to clarify my opion an find out what others think.\nI personally feel that the majority of rap is too highly focused on image over acctual talent. Of course this isn't always the case there are many rappers who are quite talented and never really have to talk about themselves. Another thing that bothers me is how much they focus on the Thug life thing. So many rappers talk about how hard their life was and I'm sure that some did have a hard life but not as many as claim. I did hear of a, Siagon who acctually did lead a hard life, but has choosen not to focus on it in his rap. \nBy the way I do enoy some rap.

i think that Rap is music for those who just dont have melody in them because what they do is generaly talk and the point about amost of them talking about the same thing is true.I LOATHE RAP MUSIC!!!


Every picture I see of any galaxy has a bright light in the center, with all of the solar systems revolving around it.  Why would we see stars and not the brightest part of the galaxy?

Yes, almot every star we see is a star from this galaxy. Their are also other galaxies, but we see those only as other points of light, since they are so far away, and five planets that usually glow brighter than the rest of the lights. Also tthe brighter part of the galaxy is just a denser cluster of stars, and we do see it, it's the milky white band we see at night from horizon to horizon, it's called the Milky Way.


I am going to law school in August and need a job in the mean time.  Its hard getting a job without offering longterm commitments.  I dont want to do fast food and such b/c i feel that having my bachelors is enough to atleast get a good receptionist job.  They all tell me no b/c of the fact I have a degree and am most likely to leave in a couple of months.  I have a good feeling about getting this job, but i didnt tell them about law school.  Am I wrong?

Absolutely not.  It's sad, but you have to play hardball in the job market.  If they want gaurantees, they should offer you a contract.  Employers never ask for a contract with you because they want the option to dump you the second it's inconvenient to have you around. The flip side of this is that you are fully within your rights to leave whenever you want.  You don't have to give two weeks notice either. That's the way the job market works.


I personally like the live versions better because the artists have more energy and it just sounds better...

i think it depends on the artist..some are just better in the album version and some are not.\nfor example deep purple is much better in the live version but jefferson airplane is not..But at the end rock music is about energy and live is more energetic.live version gives you the chance to experinence the artists spontanous actions....


I was sexually abuse as a child from the age of 3 to the age of 14 off and on by family members and foster parents and friends of the family.I am 33 years old now and for many years I pushed the depression the guilt the pain away so that I could survive and raise my kids but now I am finding that I cant controll this depression and the guilty feelings of that I have done something wrong or that I want to hurt myself.The only reason I am still alive is cause of my kids and my husband without them I don't think I would be here.My kids mean everything to me and I dont think I could hurt them by hurting myself,I wouldn't leave them...Please help I really need someone to talk to and that knows these feelings that I am dealing with!!

Hi there..\n   Our stories are similar and I'm always open for new online friends :) But you really should try and find someone to talk to in your real life like a therapist or counselor? Is there some reason you haven't done so before..?\n\n   In order to heal from anything traumatic, you must process it somehow. Talking about it is the key, but its something you should talk to a professional about.\n\nIts not your fault;you've done nothing wrong. There's nothing wrong with getting help when you need it. And you need to find it inside yourself to do it for yourself, not just your kids and family. You're worth it!! :D

It was the worst movie I ever saw! No wonder they pulled it from theatres! No action until the last 25 minutes, no plot, and no ending! What do you think?

Yes, I completely agree with you.  I watched it last Saturday and it SUCKED!!!!!  I cannot believe anyone would actually think that inflicting such an eyesore on the public would be ok.


My father is suffering from severe vision loss resulting from having glaucoma. In my research, I've statements that THc can be useful in reducing eye preussure. We've tried all the herbal remedies we've come across and there has been little to no improvement. His pressure continues to waver. I want to ask the doctor about THC but I want to know of actual people it has helped. Don't want to be let down again! Please Help!

Yes it really does help.  Just be careful because it is going to cause problems in your family and the benifits are not that great...Good luck!


I met a beautiful girl, and I want to be friends with her first and then maybe ask her out.But Im very shy and quiet.I need serious help getting girls to be my friends.I have no confidence.Im so depressed because I don't have the courage talk to girls and be friends with them or get girlfriends.I'm very jelous of every guy that has a beautiful,caring,fun,loving girl as their friend or girlfriend.

Ask yourself is the possibility of getting this girl worth the effort of overcoming your insecurities and shyness? Is holding her, seeing her smile, laugh, waking up to see her face in the morning worth putting for effort to change?  You're the only one that can actually do that, though here is a little advice that may help you in talking to her:\n\nTo keep the other person interested in a conversation don't talk about yourself too much. Ask questions to get to know the person better, talk about any interests you have, classes, guys/girls, parents, etc. Become genuinely interested in the other person.\n\nThere are lots of ways to start a conversation; keeping yourself informed on current events, staying involved in activities, and keeping a mental list of good topics of discussion are excellent ways to break the ice. Ask simple, friendly questions about the person. \n\nAlso remember that body language is very important! Most people don’t even realize it but most times you’ll already have made a lot of decisions about the person by their body language and tone, before you’re more than a minute into a conversation. You want to be cool, calm, and collected; act like the person is an old friend, even if you’ve never talked to them before, and make sure to look them in the eye. Instead of focusing on how uncomfortable you feel, prepare yourself by thinking of the issues that interest you most and what you would like to discuss about a particular subject. A little preparation can go a long way.\n\nPay Attention to what the other person says! This one is Extremely useful as you can bring it up at a later time and the other person will be surprised and pleased that you remembered.\n\nContinue to speak to everyone you know regularly. If you are walking and see someone you haven’t talked to in a while, stop for a moment and talk to them. It does not have to be a long conversation, just say hello, see how they are doing and if anything is wrong. You would be surprised by how little effort is required to win the friendship of others when you require nothing of them.\n\nBe nice and generally try to end the conversation on a good note. You don't have to make sure the other person has a great time Every Single conversation, but you don't want to think of all the petty arguements they've had with you.\n\nArguements... Don't. There are Very Few 'good' arguements. "The only way to get the berst of an arguement is to avoid it."\nIf you're wrong, admit it.\n\nDO NOT critize the person, or a friend, when talking to the person. If you want to point out something they did wrong, try to point out something similar you did wrong.\n\nSmile! Not a forced smile, the person you're talking to will be able to tell the difference. And you don't have to be an overly happy hyper-active person. Just smile naturally and, if you can, be somewhat happy. Remembering good times with your friends/family can help.\n\nLet the other person do a lot of the talking and be a good listener. (Somewhat stated in my first advice, ask questions, talk about interests the other person has. Answer questions sincerly.)\n\nHonestly make the person you're talking to feel important. You don't want to fake this one or do it too often, but if you honestly think they did something well, give them that praise.\n\nAs for the no being able to relate to others because you don't drink of dance... You're not the only one, a lot of people don't enjoy the bar and club scenes, you'll find others that feel the same way. If the people you want to hang out with do goto these places you can go with them everyonce in a while. You really don't need experience to be with friends at most of them.\n\nIf you want more advice, there are a couple good books that Will actually help. How to Win Friends and Influence People, is probably one of the best ones. It's an old book, but trust me, it's just as useful tod

I just want to know Why my update programs wont open.\n\nWith iTunes I had to fully uninstall (both iTunes and Quicktime) then turned the computer off for a day, then reinstalled with the CD that came with my iPod and then it opened then I had to update then it somehow just opened.
