human-papalomia disease *it is the most common disease any one can get 3 out of 4 people get it! its also known as HPV. i was juss wondering how common it really is?

Human papillomavirus, or HPV, is a type of virus that infects the epithelial layer (the outer layer or covering) of the skin and mucous membranes. Over 70 different types of HPV have been identified. The various types of HPV each have a tendency to infect specific areas of the body.\n\nThe most common manifestation of HPV is warts. This includes warts on the skin such as plantar warts or common warts, and warts in the genital area, known as genital warts. However, many types of HPV do not cause warts or any other symptoms.\n\nGenital HPV is the most common sexually transmitted infection in the United States. At least 80 percent of sexually active women will have acquired an HPV infection by age 50.\n\nIt is important because certain types of genital HPV infection have been associated with an increased risk of changes in the cells of the cervix, including precancerous conditions and cervical cancer. Other genital tissues (vulva, vagina) may also show precancerous changes or cancer possibly related to HPV infection, but this occurs less frequently than cervical cell changes.\n\nGenital HPV is spread through direct physical contact such as intercourse, oral sex, anal sex, or any other contact involving the genital area (eg, hand to genital contact).\n\nSome types of HPV can cause genital warts, which may be associated with discomfort such as itching, burning, or tenderness in the genital area. However, most women with sexually transmitted HPV do not have any symptoms at all.\n\nWomen who test positive for an HPV infection may have acquired the infection days to a year or more prior to the diagnosis.\n\n****\n****\nThere is currently no treatment that is effective against the HPV itself. Women with genital warts may be treated with agents designed to reduce or remove the warts, including creams, oral medications, or surgery. In women who have HPV with no symptoms, the infection usually goes away without treatment, although infection with the higher risk types of HPV may linger for some time.\n\nResearch on a vaccine to treat or prevent infection is underway.\n\nHope this helped.\n\nBest of luck.\n\n-yes, I'm a doctor.

If you ask an american, North America and South America are diferent continents. If you ask a south american, they say is 1 continent divided on 3. What do Europeans say?

I ran into some interesting perspectives while in Europe.\nMany people in Central Europe referred to America as everything from Canada down to the southern tip of South America.\nAs a Canadian I feel that everything from the Panama/Colombia border north is North America including the Caribbean.


I know that the New York Stock exchange might buy stock exchanges in Europe, but how is that possible? and also, How can the New York Stock exchange list itself on the New York Stock Exchange?

It's also a company in that it has revenues and costs.  It gets money from the people that have seats on the exchange among other things.\n\nIf the NYSE corporation buys the one in Europe, it will have control of it and be able to dictate policy if it wants.  It will also get the profits that come out of the other stock exchange from the various fees that are charged for trading on the exchange.


ok girls, i know this is painful, now i really want this for a special occasion (so much pain), but does it swell? should i do it the same morning or a couple of days before? Any advice to keep in mind?

It hurts. But it will be red and swollen. Get it at least a week before your plans, otherwise it will be big and red. Ice didn't help mine, but a bubble bath helped it alot.

I would like to preserve the percentage of ownership until the company has gone public. Can I be granted, let's say 1% of the company as options instead of a speific number of shares which would dilute my share if additional shares are issued. Also is it a %age of the shares issued or shares outstanding - what is the difference? Finally what grant is most tax effctive.

I think the majority of users are young teenagers who use answers.yahoo.com as a playground.  \n\nPersonally, I think the concept is great and would be better if there were age limitations on the site, with it reserved for adult users over the age of 18.  Perhaps yahoo could create a site for those who just like to waste bandwidth (such as the place is now) and a site for those who really want to make Answers worthwhile.


Bonds with a face value of $100,000 were purchased through a broker at 97 plus accrued interest of $1,000 and brokerage commissions of $350. The amount to be debited to the investment account is?

Easy..$98,350.\n\n97 is the price but means you pay 97 cents on the dollar so you pay 97000 for the 100,000 bond.  The accrued interest and brokerage charges are extras you need to pay for so they just get added to the total price.


triva question of the day, one man in US military history achieved the rank of both admiral in the navy and general in the army, these were not honorary titles, he actually earned them, can you name him?

Samuel Carter of Elizabethton was the only person in American history to be both an Admiral in the Navy and a General in the Army.


i think that the war on drugs has not solved anything. only after starting it did drug use become heavy. beforehand there weren't any hard drugs like crack, kind of like before the prohibition act there weren't moonshiners. the blackmarket wasn't so big either. i believe the war on drugs has made it worse. what do you think?

The War on Drugs has been one of the most silliest things to happen in our, oh so civilized, country in the past 200 years.\nIt is a war that cannot be won.  People are overdosing because they don't know how to use the drug responsibly.  We have imprisoned a large percentage of the population and the use rate of drugs such as Marijuana have grown six fold since prohibition.  If there is a will there is a way and people want to use drugs so all the money goes into the hands of what most people would call gangs.\nThere are over 89 million self admitted drug users in the United States alone.  Can you imagine the taxes for supporting these people in prison?  The war on "Drugs" is a miserable failure and we have done nothing but drain our social programs.  ie Social Security, Welfare,...

I am going to apply for a scholarship to get to CalStateLA.  I am having trouble writing one and bad at it.  I need help before the deadline passes for me.

If you get a choice of essay topics, write about something personal to you.  If the scholarship deals with a specific group of people or a specific subject, write about how much that subject means to you.  (If it's a scholarship for women going into computer science, for example, write about your first programming experience and how you overcame being the only female in your school who liked it.)\n\nAs with all essays, give yourself plenty of time, write an outline, and keep editing.  Give it to someone else to proofread, and then put it aside for a few days.  Pull it out 2-3 days later, edit it again, and send it in :-)

If you are in this line of work,do you enjoy it? How much do you earn? Where can I get training-where do I start? Thanks ...

Hi, I have a health care worker that comes ten hours a week. Most in my apartment complex have helpers. Most of our helpers are great. We know that it is hard for workers to understand our needs and we work together with our helpers to make our relationships good. Our aids become like family. The pay in Michigan is $9.00 per hr. Wages depend on agency. Make sure the agency is good to their workers. My agency is harsh on workers and they are supposed to be the best. The workers are not treated fairly. Of course, if you start your clients will help you to know what agencies work well with you and your client. Call Social Services, employment agency, hospitals, schools, and even apartment complexes for disabled. Even apartment complexes for retiree's and elderly will give you information. The pay is not much but if you are considerate and love people, you will do this job. You will not find more loving and understanding individuals as in disabled complexes. Not V A, but complexes that have disabled.

If you have a character that says, "This table is red. The carpet is green." Basically, he's saying what he sees. I read that this is the type of dialogue to avoid but can anyone give me the term for this kind of dialogue?

Nondescript. Too much of it can leave the reader with nothing to build on.\n\n "The table sat in the midst of the dining room with an elegant green rug beneath it." Better? The idea is to give the reader something to 'see' without over, or under doing it.

What is erosive esphogas and what are the symtoms?

Erosive Esophagitis\n\nErosive esophagitis is a condition in which areas of the esophageal lining are inflamed and worn away.\n\nThe most common cause of erosive esophagitis is chronic acid reflux. Corrosive substances, such as cleaning solutions, can erode the esophagus if they are swallowed accidentally or deliberately, as in a suicide attempt. Some pills (for example, aspirinSome Trade Names\nECOTRIN\nASPERGUM\nor other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs [NSAIDs], alendronateSome Trade Names\nFOSAMAX\n, doxycyclineSome Trade Names\nVIBRAMYCIN\n, and certain large iron and potassium tablets) can cause painful erosions if they lodge temporarily in the esophagus.\n\nDiagnosis of erosive esophagitis is made by esophagoscopy. If an erosion results from a pill, the pill usually can be washed down with large quantities of water; the pain often resolves within hours. Rarely, erosions caused by corrosive substances or pills persist, leading to narrowing of the esophagus.


y am i suffering without my fault in this birth , does sin done in pervious births have efffects on this birth n coming birth. wht is paap. crystal ball dazing n tarot cards works ????????? can worship sloves all the problems

In Buddhism, you are taught that the only person who can redeem yourself is you.  If you believe in Karma, a good way to think of it is like this:  In the Buddhist concept of Rebirth, we have always been here, and we have always been 'rebirthing' from lifetime to lifetime, among different forms, planes, etc.  In the thousands upon thousands of lifetimes, we have done some amazing things!  But we have also done some amazingly bad things.  The only thing you bring with you between these births is your Karma.  Your Karma will help (not entirely guide, but *help*) determine what kind of life you'll have here.  But remember, the life you lead is also dependant on all the decisions you make within this lifetime as well - so if you examine what you do, how you choose, and why you choose things as you do, you can see the effect your choices have on your life.\n\nNext time you are given a choice in life, examine why you are making the decisions you make - who will benefit? You?  Will it hurt you? What about someone else? What about the planet?  Your intentions will color every decision you make, and the after effects of your decisions will ripple out, and effect all of us.


Nothing is open now. I dont have baking stuff on me like baking soda or anything.\n\nI have two massive ones and they hurt like a b**** ones in the lip area just inside mouth, and the other is on the left underside of my tounge. Any good ideas?

I'm going to the Pepsi 400 in Daytona next month and I can't wait. I'm going with my friends who already atteneded last year's race and they're bringing me along because they want to see my reaction to an actual race I imagine myself blubbering like an idiot because I'll be overwhelmed.\nMy question is what am I to expect? From traffic, to the amount of people out there, to just how loud (in decibels, please) weather, what should I bring, anything you can think of. Have at it NASCAR fans. Tell this die hard fan what she can expect on that much anticipated weekend?

Don't be surprised at any driver you may approach for an autograph, they are very accommodating. They will even engage you in conversation depending on what point it is before or after the race.  They are probably the most fan-friendly sport around at the moment.


My husband borrowed $60 from his grandfather about 7 years ago, and he never asked for a payment.  Family members told him that most likely the debt would be forgiven in the will, since, each grandchild expected to receive some inheritance of cash.  Well, his mother who is the executor says each grand child is getting only about $20 K, and my husband owes, his uncle $40K that has a 5% interest rate since 1999.  Only a year before his death, did gfather ask for his money back.  So, my hsbd, took out a mortgage on our home to pay him.  Upon coming to his gfather with the money, his gfather did not accept the money.  We have not seen the will, isn't there a probate, that all beneficiaries should attend.  Would you suspect there is something that is not completely right here?  Please assist with an anser to any part of this question.

Ooooohh ... that's a really sticky situation.  My guess is that you're going to have some big family problems with this one.  Have you told the executor that the debt was forgiven?  Do you have it in writing?  If you don't have it in writing that the grandfather refused to accept the money and the debt was forgiven, you're going to have a really hard time proving anything.  I'd retain a lawyer if you're going to fight it.\n\nAlso, you should consider if the damages to the family relationships are worth the $60K.  Some family feuds can go on for years and years.


My husband has recently got back into fishing and would like a pair of hip boots, we can't find a store that carries size 14...

Im Behind You 100% Who Is Deleting My Question's About George Bush!


Is that what they call an Eluciadian computation?


The bird alone weighs 6 ounces. The box alone weighs 6 ounces.the bird is flying inside the box and the box is completely sealed. Now weigh the box with the bird flying inside it. How much does it weigh?

The mass of the closed system (bird and box) is 12 ounces no matter what.  However, the measurement of the weight will vary depending on the acceleration of the bird.  If the bird is resting, or flying in a stationary position, the weight will be 12 ounces.  If the bird stops flapping it's wings (free-fall) the weight will appear to drop.  If the bird is rising, the weight would appear to increase.


I'm wondering why the promotional criteia is the same although students who receive home instruction is only allowed 10hrs of teaching a week vs. 35 hrs of public education

Not exactly sure of the question, don't know what you mean about promotional criteria. If you're talking about homeschooling, you can take as many hours as you need ro want. But, in general, I know with homeschooling, you don't need as many hours to learn because it's one on one. You learn and retain things faster that way than being in a school setting. Hope that helps you a little.


A lot of people are blaming illegal immigrants for taking our jobs, rightly or wrongly. But have you considered that many of our American companies are also giving our jobs away. They either outsource or move the company to a foreign land in order to procure much cheaper labor. This labor crosses all areas of commerce from factory workers to skilled engineers. These American companies dodge high taxes by not being based on American soil yet still have the protection of the USA and then market their product at huge profits to us back home. Where d'ya think these profits go? I haven't seen a reduction in the prices so it hasn't been passed on to the American people. Wouldn't our unemployment rate go down if American companies abroad had to hire American citizens the same way congress is threatentning to fine the homebased corporations who don't. If we are trying to place the blame for our unemployment, lets share it fairly.

Outsourcing is the biggest thing killing our economy right now. (US economy that is). \n\nIt is not just a factor of cheap labor. It is the first step in losing all of our big companies. If all the workers are overseas what is the point in having managers here? If all the managers are overseas what is the point in having a board here? People are not just exporting other people's jobs they are exporting whole industries. \n\nA second aspect on this is that we really don't make anything here in the US any more. If all our ports were shut down for even a few months much of America would come to a screaching halt. We would have empty shelves and no replacement parts. So for the last 20 years we've traded on information and technical ability. Both of those are now in dire risk. The slashing of R&D budgets combined with oursourcing means we will literally be out of the information and technology business. Most of the major software in use today started from a programmer who was employed full time writing code for another company. Not by employees of companies like Microsoft who merely steal or buy the software. If these programmers cannot make a living writing code they do not sharpen their coding skills to write the next great inovations in software. The majority of Open source programmers are employed as programmers for companies, some even use some company time on open source projects. So this outsourcing threatens both our comercial and free software markets. If Western programmers are not hacking out code for a living it will be Indian, Chinese and Russian coders writing the next Oracle, the next great game, the next whatever is needed down the road. It is they who will have the expereince and expertise not us. \n\nIT and the net were saviours to our broken economy in the 80s. The 90s we flourished mostly because of an ineffectual series of presidents and the boom in IT. This boom triggered so many ripples in the US economy that many service industries are now coupled to IT and high tech. As the jobs flow overseas these jobs will dry up as well as the information workers creating even less demand for what we still produce here in the US. \n\nAs for tarrifs they have to be enacted now. If we wait another 5 years it will be too late. Too much of our knowledge base will be outside of our control and our talent will have been religated to the dust heap. This is a major ecnomic crisis which severe impacts for everyone in the nation. The tent cities so many have forgotten will return in the near future if we continue to outsource. \n\nIllegal imigrants are a major problem. Nowhere as big as outsourcing. What is happening is that when everybody went to information management it created openings for imigrants in trades and other semi-skilled jobs. So today a night stocker, a construction work are now working for wages dictated by what people can pay illegal imigrants. Our entire wage scale and standard of living is being decimated by the sheer numbers of illegals we have here and the entrenched structure they have built. Once a job falls into Illegal's hands is very difficult for American's to get on those crews. If they do an American cannot live on those wages without living in the poverty ridden life of an illegal. Many displaced information workers looking to return to previous proffesions are no blocked by illegals. The true unemployment rate, not the joke perpetrated by the Gov is rapidly rising. To aggravate this so many that have ducked into education over the last five years will be graduating to deep debt and no jobs. People with handicaps or strikes on their records will become long term unemployable as the compitition has risen so steeply for what jobs exist. Those that lose a job are often looking at 1-2 years of seeking to find a job that pays a fraction of their previous wages and they feel lucky if they find work in their same field. \n\nLegislation and environment are two factors that hurt employmen

if common sense is so common then why do very few people have it?

I don't think it refers to it being common... instead I think that it refers to like everyday (common) as in you do it often or commonly.  So it means like "everyday sense".  I agree with you however that people don't use it, but it is not common because it does not really mean "common sense"


Custom is a way that societies operate - things are usually done in a certain way, so they continue to be done that way.\n\nSome societies have elevated certain customs to be enforceable by penal means - if you disobey those customs other members of society will punish you.  They are customary laws.\n\nCustomary law also has a particular meaning where indigenous or minority groups have a different pattern of laws to the majority or conquerors.  In that circumstance customary law may apply, but only to the indigenous inhabitants.  \n\nVarious legal systems give varying degrees of recognition to customary law.  In Australia, for example, courts sometimes acknowledge that a person may receive additional punishment under customary law and take that into account in deciding the severity of punishment.\n\nThe extent to which customary law should be taken into account is quite a difficult jurisprudential issue.


i can have this judgement collected with a garnishment but need to know where he works.

Follow him. I take it you know where he lives so that is the simple answer. Or, call his house and pretend that he won a tv and you need to deliver it to him at work because of your delivery hours.


I heard on the radio back in December of 05 that AC/DC was going on tour again.  Is this true?  If it is are they coming to NY?  If you know or can give me somewhere to find out That would be great.  I already checked the search engiens and cant find anthing exact.

THIS IS TRUE!!!!  The question is when though there are a lot of rumors out there.  Pickup the copy of the latest Hit Parader magazine and there is a big article in there about AC/DC it's an interview with Angus Young and it sounds like the album is already made they are just planning the tour.  Then I also read in the Sydney Herald that the band had arrived and was ready to do the new album.  I choose to believe the article in Hit Parader cause it would mean we get the new album sooner.  Either way we know they are recording.  Also you know when they go on tour they are coming to NY.  You know they "Feel Safe In New York City"!  I hope that helps.


ok my friend got mad at me cuz i use to hate this one girl whos going out with my exboyfriend... now shes mad bcuz she dont believe that i care about my new friend... what should i do cuz i cant leave either of them... we are so close!

Are all men bisexual or bicurious.???? be honest!

The bible says that the whole world is lying in the power of the wicked one... \n\nSo maybe things are going in that direction - after all they have tried just about everything else. 20-30 years ago men had different expectations of women in that department - that's for sure. Times are changing and not for the better. Guys are much more obsessed with their own genitals nowadays. They want their favorite thrills even at the cost of dignity and self respect of both them and their partner at times.

set new goals:\nex:\nOllie, Kick-flip .....watever you want to do in skateboarding...\nwrite them down, put them somewhere you can see them everyday...as you start to acheive new goals, you will feel satisfied with what you did and you will keep setting new goals and putting them up to see untill the time comes where you feel like you've achieved enough goals in skateboarding and the passion is lost


I am trying to come up to speed with baseball, basketball and football. Are there primers or places where I can start to get some idea on rules/how these games are played/scoring, etc. on these sports.\n\nThanks,

You can learn sports in a few ways.  Obviously books or the internet work.  But that's not the most practical application. A good one is the old guy at the sports bar.  If you find a 40+ at a sports bar, you are golden.  Not only will they tell you about the ins and outs, they'll tell you about the old days of sport.  Interesting stuff actually.\n\nAlso try watching nationally televised games.  The announcers know they are broadcasting to a mostly non sports audience.  As a result they usually take extra time to explain stuff that may seem obvious to a sports head.  Monday Night Football with Joe Theisman, Fox Saturday baseball with Joe Buck and the upcoming NBA Finals are all good things to watch.


I wonder why our Canadian court system is light on charging impaired drivers, the first offence is a fine atleast and probation. The second offence is close to the first punishment. If you walk into a court room, and most of the offenders just geta slap on the hands, thats it. What makes it worse, when this person comes back a second, third or even forth time, they might get probation and higher fine. Then this person who has been charged over and over, finally kills some one, they get a slap on the hands again for taking some ones life.\n\nSo .....we see it every night some kills some one, drinking and driving. If a person get caught with drinking and driving, the book should be thrown at them....the first time, so it will sink into there heads, they are in jail, why pitty the offender.

Hell you'd need to lock up everyone in Canada.


does anybody know where i can find free summer oceanography or related science programs for undergraduates still open??? i really want to do something this summer... please help

Well, as a last resort you could always try Stone Lab, it's located on Lake Erie, which obviously isn't an ocean, but it's still fun and there is a variety of wildlife and plantlife in the lake and it would be relevant to your studies.\nhttp://ohioseagrant.osu.edu/stonelab/


Can someone please tell me how to over clock my video card? Please provide step by step instructions. Best and most detailed answer gets 10 pts

http://www.techpowerup.com/atitool/\n\nUse that to overclock ATI cards. What I do is that I make a new file for overclock. Then, I click the button on the screen saying "Max Memory/Core" and it overclocks automatically that way. Then I save, and then I minimize it.\n\nJust if you're wondering, only certain cards have thermometers. So if it doesn't display a temp, mine doesn't either because mine is also a 9600.

My 19 month old son has Excema on his face, the Dr. prescribed Elidel, he has been using it for about a year now, I was just wondering if anyone else uses it and how long?  His dermatologist has kept refiling it and hasn't seen him back since he prescribed it, the Elidel really helps, but it has never gone completely away.  That is why I have kept using it.

Continuos and long term use of any topical calcineurin inhibitor is not recommended cause it might bring side effect to us. Furthermore, Elidel is actually not recommended for children below 2 years old. ( but if prescribed by dr. maybe has his reason) . You can refer to the source i gave.\n\nMy little brother has eczema too, he use betamethasone and eumovate. but he never use it for more than 2 months. (what i mean is that he wil stop using occasinally, usually two weeks before continue using again.)

My above ground swimming pools ph results were @9.0 and need to be between 7.2 and 7.4. Just trying to figure out a dosage of 90 ppm of sodium bicarbonate to add to lower the ph.

DO NOT add sodium bicarbonate! The pH is already too high. Bicarb will only COMPOUND the problem, not fix it. What you need is acid. Bicarb has an alkaline pH.


I am a G.E.D grad and I want to work but no one hires 17year olds.

Try Lowes or Home depot look for a company that is an ESOP they have good growth opportunities for long term employees. What do you like to do you should focus on that industry.\n\nGood luck and God Bless!!


I know it has to do with Non-volatile weak acids. but that is about all I know about it.

Do you mean reverse osmosis? Reverse osmosis is used to remove troublesome amounts of alkalinity in water.

i must leave my husband for some reason what should i do without break his heart cause he loves me so much and i do not want hurt his feelings but i have to

Go ahead, do what feels right. I noticed that when I follow that "feels right" thing, everything good happens. And when I don't.... Things get worse. IF YOU DO what's best for you, life will reward you. I don't know how it happens, but it does so every time. BE honest with yourself and your husband. THAT's the BEST way to go. And don't be afraid, things will work out for him too. Good luck!


I'd like to know how the systolic and diastolic values are detected when the doctor/nurse pumps the cuff and watches the mercury falling in the barometer.

(m)\n\n blood pressure can be measured either by using a machine called a sphygmomanometer (spig-mom-an-om-eter) or by using an automatic machine.\n\n\nA sphygmomanometer is the older kind of equipment that measures blood pressure using a column of mercury. The person taking your blood pressure will put a cuff around the top of your arm, pump up this cuff and then listen for sounds through a stethoscope placed on your arm. The sounds heard through the stethoscope will start and then finish at certain points on the mercury column, and this will give the reading for your blood pressure.\n\n There are also automatic digital machines that can measure blood pressure. They also use a cuff around your arm and will give a readout of your blood pressure.\n\n\n\n\nWhat do the numbers mean?\n\nWhen you have your blood pressure measured, it is written down as two numbers, one over the other like a fraction. \n\nFor example:\n\n140/90mmHg\n\nIt is said as "140 over 90," for example. The top number, which is called the systolic pressure, shows the pressure in your arteries when your heart is forcing blood through them. The bottom number, called the diastolic pressure, shows the pressure in your arteries when your heart relaxes. The top number can be anywhere from 90 to 240 and the bottom number can be anywhere from 60 to 140. Blood pressure is measured in millimetres of mercury, which is written down as: mmHg\n\nEveryone has a different blood pressure and it can change in the same person during the day and night. Your blood pressure varies by large amounts, depending on what you are doing. The lowest blood pressures occur when you are asleep or if you relax all your muscles. Standing up, exercising or anxiety all cause an increase in blood pressure. In a single day your blood pressure may vary by 30 to 40 mmHg systolic with similar proportionate changes in diastolic pressure. This is why when you have your blood pressure level assessed it is so important to have it measured under the same conditions every time.

I am looking for a safe, easy procedure.HELP!!

I so know what you mean. Sleep deprivation in these circumstances can make a person feel homicidal. Seriously. Inadvertently, my ex's snoring led to the end of our marriage (a long story which I will not bore you with here but suffice to say there were other things going on too!). \n\nThere are non-prescription nasal sprays that you can buy for him to try. If this fails, tell him to haul himself down to his doctor as there are lots of things that can be done to alleviate his condition before surgery becomes necessary.\n\nGood luck!


Help! HW problem. For some reason not understanding to well.

this polar nature depends on electronegativity. \nIn a bond, say C-H, the most EN element gets partial -ve charge and less EN element gets partial +ve charge\nIn C-H, H is less EN and C is more EN. Thus, C gets partial +ve charge and H gets partial -ve charge.\n\nEN of C is 2.550 EN of H is 2.200\nEN of Si is 1.9 EN of Sn is 1.96\n\nIn this group EN of C is high and H is less in C-H thus, C-H is most polar. \n\nAs EN of Si and Sn is less, than H , H gets positive charge but very less +ve charge. but in C-H C is more EN and gets +ve 2.550.\nHope i was clear enough.\nAny doubts you can ask further.


Let X be a metric space and A, B disjoint closed subsets. Prove that there exist disjoint open sets C,D such that C is a superset of A and D is a superset of B.

define f(x)=d(x,A)/[d(x,A)+d(x,B)].\nThis is a continuous function f:X->[0,1] (use triangle inequality to show x->d(x,A) is continuous for a closed set A). Also f=0 on A and f=1 on B. Let C=f^(-1)[0,1/3) and D=f^(-1)(2/3,1]. Then C and D are open because inverse images of open sets under continuous functions are open.\n\nNote to Adolfo Boy: It is possible for the distance between two disjoint closed sets to be 0. Consider the x-axis and the y=1/x curve. Your argument does work for compact sets, though. The point (a,b) in your argument need not exist if the infimum is not attained.

my workmate has ruined his back, he is in chronic pain, without medication he is unable to move, speak or think. The doctors tried something that didn't work, if anything his operation has made him worse, he has been lying on his stomach for months. \n The waiting list for another operation is 2 years, just looking at him makes you wince from the pain, there is no way he can wait two whole years, i wouldn't wish a minute of that pain on anyone. \n His credit rating is too bad to get a loan, his parents have no money, work probably wont let him have any more time off. No health fund will accept him.\n He says that he is considering having both his legs amputated to stop the pain. \n\nThere must be another way.\n\nany suggestions?

Go to your county's social services agency (welfare agency) to see if he can get emergency Medicaid. If you keep making calls around, eventually you will come upon some organization or agency that will help. Don't give up, -- get up and get moving to help his parents find the help that I believe is out there. Make phone calls - most places will give you some kind of referral if they themselves don't offer the needed services. I wish you well. Do your best, and God will take care of the rest.

Does anyone know how to make the task manager work? I pushed Ctrl Alt Delete and it says the task manager has been disabled by the administrator. So I went to Windows Help and I follow all the directions to use my task manager. The task manager worked for a while. Now it does not work, so when I follow the prompts again it does not work. I know it has to be a virus that is causing this problem. I scan my computer frequently to remove viruses and spyware, and the task manager just doesn't work any more. Does any one out there have any suggestions?

Just right click on the bar where your see the windows minimized and click Task Manager, you will see the task manager easily. If not there has to be some problem with related files, try repairing the windows installation.


How did they come into existance? Why don't they have their own kingdom in scientific classification (biology)?\n\nHow long have viruses been around?

OK, after reading the answers so far I just have to say who are these people, and where are they getting their information from.  Many are stating that viruses are not considered living.  Well, anybody in the academic circle can tell you it is a matter of opinion, with many arguments for and against (mentioned by others).  I think, however, to answer your question, we should talk about the origins of viruses.\n\nThere is a current thoery out there that the origional viruses were actually defense mechanisms by early organisms against other organisms competing for the same niche. That is, the genes and functions were "excreted" into the environment with the purpose of attaching to something else, specifically, and destroying a host.  Over time, it is believed that evolution allowed the new hosts to survive these infections, yet stay infected, which allowed the nascent genes to become seperated from their origional "makers".  This then led to the viruses being able to evolve independently of the origional organisms.\n\nAs for why they don't have their own kingdom and classification, it is simple.  When the classification system was made, viruses were not known to exist.  Their diseases were, but they themselves were not.  It wasn't until leeweinhook in the 15th century that even bacteria were really discovered.  \n\nSo, as time passed, new organisms were found, and new classes were added to describe them.  The purpose of classification is two fold.  First, it should describe the organism.  Second, it should allow some sense of familial relationship to all other families.  Hence the new areas of prokaryotic, eukaryotic, and archaeobacteria.  \n\nBut with viruses, as others eluded to before, it wasn't certain that they were living at all, so how do we go about classifying them?  One scientist decided that instead of fighting an uphill battle, he would just start his own classification system, completely independent of the ones used for all other life forms. So, believe it or not, viruses are classified into families and genera, but just not placed into the classical naming system.  If you look iti up, you will find that all viruses have a latin name, from phage all the way to plant viruses.  \n\nI hope this helps you out.


I think our goverment should of pulled up at the ralleys today and started asking for green cards and for who didn't have them load em up and send them to their native land.  Does anyone else feel the same way?  \nWhat can be done to save our country from illegal immigrants?

I think they should start hunting them down and shipping them back. The whole problem's getting really annoying and serious action must be taken. \n\nOf course we wouldnt be having this problem if everyone in this country just came here legally.

For a gymnast at any level, is there something which personifies the fear you might hold; the fear of failure, the pressure you might feel to perform well, or something else you might just be afraid of. I am thinking about some sort of monster -- is there anything that embodies a gymnast's worst nightmare?  Or maybe I am just plain asking the gymnasts out there about something fantasy they might be afraid of.

It depends on the gymnast. I don't have fears in gymnastics. Some fears may include, splitting the beam, missing a landing, and falling off an apparatus. Some gymnasts may have fears of performing in front of an audience too.


A)Magneto\nB)Mystique\nC)Sabertooth\nD)The Juggernaut\nE)Dark Pheonix\nF)Apocalypse\nG)Hellfire Club\nH)The Brotherhood of Evil Mutants(list favorite members)\npick as many as you like.\nTHX!

Apocalypse is a virtually immortal mutant bonded with extra-terrestrial technology. He is one of the most powerful beings in the Marvel universe, possessing a multitude of superhuman abilities, including almost unsurpassed strength and invulnerability and the ability to shift and alter his mass. Apocalypse is often accompanied by four servants, the Four Horsemen of Apocalypse, named after the Four Horsemen of the Book of Revelation.\n\nApocalypse is one of the first mutants, born in mid-30th century BC Egypt. He appears as a death god in several ancient mythologies. However, he has been most active in the late 20th and 21st centuries AD when mutants became a sizable part of the human population. He sees this as an age to implement his extreme eugenic philosophy (only the 'fittest' have the right to survive).\n\nA popular X-Man adversary, he played vital roles in 1990s-era “event” storylines “The Age of Apocalypse” and “The Twelve.” He was also featured prominently in the 1990s X-Men animated series, its successor X-Men: Evolution and the video game X-Men Legends 2: Rise of Apocalypse.

Kobe had 50 points.What happened to everybody else??

Despite Kobe's 50 points Steve Nash and his crew were very determined. I think mostly because of all of the Lakers careless turnovers and all of those costly fouls. But one thing I am sure about is that Game:7 is going to be a great battle.(In more than one way). ( Kobe VS. Raja)

The past 2 years i was in the philippines and the school there was different from here. Please tell me many ways to survive. How do I make friends?


It might help if you gave the context.  At some schools it means Department of Health Care Sciences.  But there is also some kind of gene called DHC, so if it says DHCs, then it might be that.


i used to be bubbly and perky and fun and enjoy the company of people. But now, I'm unhappy most of the time. I cry without reason. I always feel tired and restless and i became the loner that i was in grade school. i am in a relationship and i feel it's unfair for him that i'm always ill-tempered and snaps at him. i get ticked off at the slightest provocation. My friends say that I'm beginning to be boring. I just don't know what exactly is wrong with me and I don't like going to a doctor and I find it hard talking about it face to face even to my boyfriend or bestfriend. I find it hard to open up when I'm face to face with someone.

I am a licensed mental health professional and while I certainly would never diagnose you online, I do think other writers are on the right track.  What you are describing really does correspond with symptoms of depression. The good news is that this is a common and very treatable illness.  While you don't want to go to the doctor, you need to remember that depression (or any type of mental illness) is nothing to be ashamed of.  If you were diabetic would you hesitate or be embarassed to seek treatment?  Heck I'm a professional and have experienced depression. I got the help I needed and moved on with my life.  There are so many new medications and other options you can speak with a professional about.  This is all about taking care of yourself and getting the most you can out of life.  I would recommend getting a referral for a practitioner who has some experience in treating depression.  If money is an issue, almost all communities have free or low cost resources. In the mean time, try to share what is going on with your boyfriend and other people you trust.  Let them be there for you.  If you want to talk please feel free to contact me.  My email is jazzy_59602@yahoo.com.

born in the philippines. lived in the United States since i was 6 months old. i lost my birth certificate and i need a replacement.

Since am also from the Philippines, you can obtain an authenticated birth certificate via telephone though it's more expensive but without any hussle in doing so. Try calling the National Statistics Office (NSO)with this number Country Code plus 027371111 then give all details of your birth such as birthdate, birthplace and parents names. If you have the birth registry number, better if not, then it's still okay. Be sure that you are giving the correct name on your birth certificate. The operator will give you some numbers as your reference code and this will be used when you pay in any Metrobank around or its affiliate bank there. After about a week or so, they will send you the copy through courier service. You can request for several copies if you like since payment is on a per copy basis. Good luck!


there is an expression "what ever we do, that's effect will return to ourselves"\ncia has taught bin laden and bin laden built american nice day in 11th september!!!

Do you think it is Gods will for man to be with man OR female to be with female!!! How would we all be here if that was the way it was supposed to be,Our country is so messed up!!And if it was morally ok...Why did the Old New Jersey Governor resign!!!

God has every right in everything. He has a place in the government, in schools , etc . because look at what this country is coming to with all these people wanting God out of the picture. America needs God and as for the question, God did not intend on Man to be with Man or Females to be with Female. It is wrong according to the bible. DOesnt mean I dont have gay friends. I just keep my opinion to myself around them. Just like the ones who dont believe in GOd being in the pledge need to deal with it. Because the people that started this country had the right way of doing it. NOw everyone wants to mess it up. Lets see how far we get without God. This Country is already showing the effects. I cant believe half the things people say about Bush, gay marriage, etc.. its crazy


They can be past or present..or an entire band...thanks!

My husband sleeps for whole day when he is on leave and on other days he sleeps late till 12. Actually he has the work shift of 3pm to 12 am. He also has the prblm of taking self decision why is it so.Actually he take decision regarding his work but when it come to the family matters he do it as his parents tells him to do. Is it because that he is drug addict or he was a drug addict or is it because he have some mental problem.

Your husband seems to be on a second shift work schedule. There is nothing wrong with him. But when he comes home from work he isn't ready to go straight to bed. He needs time to wind down. And by that time it could be 1 or 2 in the morning. This is very normal for someone who works any shift other than first. \nPeople who don't work, or work first shift can not understand someone who works second or third shift. It's not the same amount of sleep nor is it the same quality of sleep. \nDon't worry he is fine....


The Comforter, the Spirit of Truth, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all that I said unto you."\n[Bible - John 14:26]\n\nJesus, the son of Mary, said, "A messenger will come after me,named Ahmad."\n[Quran 61:6]\n\nThe chief priests and Levites asked John the Baptist, "If you are not the Christ (Messiah), and not Elijah - are you THAT Prophet?"\n[John 1:20]\n \n\nWhen the chief priests and Levites asked John the Baptist who he was, they asked him in a very strange way. First the questioned him as to whether or not he was the anticipated "Messiah" [Christ in Koine Greek]. He was not the "Messiah" that had hoped for. Next they asked if he was the prophet Elijah and again he tells them, "No." Now comes the really strange part. Finally, they asked him if he is "That Prophet?"\n\n1. Are you Christ? - [No]\n2. Are you Elijah? - [No] \n3. Are you THAT Prophet? - [No] \nWhat did they mean by "That Prophet?" We of course, know who the "Christ" is. After all, Christians should know that "Christ" is merely a shortened form of the Koine Greek word "christos," intended to mean the Hebrew word "Messiah."\n\nThe Jews of two thousand years ago were definitely looking for the Messiah, who it was foretold in their books, would come and lead them to victory over their oppressors and thus gain for them mastery over this world. They were very oppressed under Roman domination and even their own Jewish kings were seen as nothing more than puppets or agents for the disbelievers. Certainly, they would have been most happy to see someone come on the scene who would defeat their Roman masters and slave drivers.\n\nThen the priests and Levites asked John the Baptist if he might be the prophet Elijah, returning back after hundreds of years being away. There was the notion amongst them that Elijah would come back. But again, John the Baptist is denying he is Elijah.\n\nThen, who is he? They wonder at this man living out in the desert and forsaking wealth and luxury and fasting, avoiding the material attractions of life.\n\nAgain, they ask John the Baptist who he is. "Are you THAT Prophet?" And one more time he denies being "THAT Prophet," but then he does tell them about someone who will come after him soon, whom he claims he is not worthy to even unlace his shoes.\n\nHowever, this does not answer the question, "Who were they expecting besides the Messiah?" Could it be they were looking for someone like Muhammad? (Could be)\n\nWho is THAT Prophet? - \n\nKeep reading and learn who "That Prophet" is and what other proofs can be discovered within the Holy texts to support this idea.\n\n____________________\n\nFor centuries Muslims have believed Jesus, peace be upon him, was "THAT Prophet" mentioned in these words of the Gospel of John. The Quran states one of the important features of Jesus' mission was to give the "bashir" or 'glad tidings' of the coming of the Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him. During his short missionary career that lasted not more than three years, and which was overshadowed by the hostile attitude of his own people, Jesus gave them the good news of Ahmad, (one of the forms of "Muhammad") the last messenger of God, who would perfect the divine teaching both in theory and in practice. The Quran mentions that, Jesus says:\n\n"O Children of Israel! I am the messenger of Allah {Almighty God} (sent) to you, confirming the Law (Torah or Old Testament) before me, and giving glad tidings of a messenger to come after me, whose name shall be Ahmad." (Surah 61:6)\nThe Quran gives the name as Ahmad, one of several ways to say Muhammad's name. Just as we have in English the name Joseph, and often use a shorter form such as "Joe" or the familiar form, "Joey,"

By the way, Prophet Muhammad is mentioned BY NAME in Song of Solomon 5:16 - In original Hebrew it says "Hiko Mamitakim, Vikuloh MUHAMMADIM Zehdudi vizahrei Bayna jerusalem"...\n\nUnfortunately the translators of the Bible translated the the Name Muhammadim to Altogather Lovely..\n\nFurthermore there are many other prophecies of Prophet Muhammad in the Bible which are fitting Prophet Muhammad like a glove and not to the Holy Spirit..\n\nFor more Information, contact me at shiekhtm@yahoo.com


I have had two girl like the smell of saliva when making out, and other women who like the smell of sweat. Maybe wierd maybe not.Others like different smells, me personally I dont mind the vaginal scent when it is not too strong.

YES, there is power in a certain scent, my b/f has the sexiest natural smell I love to smell him. Any time I am around him that smell turns me on. During sex he has a different smell right before he orgasms and it drives me wild.


I have looked family, like my mother and it told me how many children she had and gage names. I am looking for my grand mother her name was Mary Elizebeth Catlett that was her maidin name. She marryed Lewis.

im 15 and my bf is 17 and were still virgins but im ready to loose it what should i do?

listen, if you don't know how to tell him, then that right there is a sure sign you're not ready. you need to feel comfortable talking about it, including birth control & protection. make sure you're really ready and that includes talking to him. just my advice.


its just a thought... i work with a bunch of people that came out of jail so it makes me wounder, if your job has over 100 people 1 out of the 100 had to of right?

Think of people that work IN prisons, in the armed forces, security, in law enforcement, etc. I'm less worried about people who are known to have killed than I am about the serial murderers who are still uncaught....you know, the quiet ones who are "the people next door"\n\nOK, I watch a LOT of Law & Order and CSI!

I have my first exam in 5 days and i am starting to panic!

don't pressurise u'r brain on the day before the exam.take as much rest as possible.just revise u'r formulae well.don't get tensed.stay cool.


1. Make sure the angle of interest is in radians.  Radians are the "natural" (non)-units of angles, because they relate the angle measurement to the length of arc the angle cuts off on a unit circle.  So 2*Pi radians are equivalent to 360 degrees.  Basically, if you have that sucker in degrees, multiply it by 2 * Pi / 360.  Unit conversion is done. \n \n2. Make sure the angle is between -Pi and Pi.  Because sine is a periodic function, with period 2*Pi, just subtract or add 2*Pi enough times to get the angle between those two points.\n\nnow for the meat of the problem:\n\nsin(x) = x - x^3/3! + x^5/5! - x^7/7! + x^9/9! - ... + \n+ (-1)^(n-1)*x^(2n-1)/(2n-1)! + ...\n\nExample: sin(15)\n\nStep 1: 15 degrees = 15*(2*Pi/360) radians = Pi/12 radians \n \nStep 2: I need Pi/12 in decimal (let's see, Pi=3.14159 (memorize that much, it's pretty easy... "Pi when calculating sine, 3 point 1 4 1 5 9!")) \nPi/12 approx = .261799 (we only had 6 sig figs, so we can't add any more than that) \n \nNow to the series: \n         first term:  x=.261799 \n         1st estimate: .261799 \n         second term: -x^3/3! = -.0029905  \n         2nd estimate: .258809 \n         third term: x^5/5! = .0000102     \n         3rd estimate: .258819 \n         fourth term: -x^7/7! = -.167*10^-7  \n         stop here - past precision\n\nThe answer is positive \nsin(15) = 0.258819\nsin(18) = 0.309017


It sounds like Lil Jon does some numbers in the background and then at the end the main singer guy starts listing whole bunch of chicks names like "Shaniqua, Yolanda, etc".  I love this song so much but I hear it on the radio every once in a while.

Our landlord has been sending a handyman to come into our home without telling us and she also entered without notice. My wife is up stairs on bedrest right now and has been scared many times by them thinking someone has been breaking in. They started painting the other day all of our doors with oil based paint and i almost had to take my pregnant wife to the hospital. I thought they had to at least give a notice if they are going to enter our home. They havent been entering for any good reason (checking fire alarms or anything) it has just been for them to do checkups or the painting. The other problem with the painting is they left all my doors wide open and i was at work so anyone could have come in and taken everything.

In Virginia a landlord must provide the tenant with 24 hours notice before entering for a non-emergency situation.


I would like to know how to get a business license, how to get insured, bonded, anything I really need to know to get a small business off the ground. I have never tried this before and really don't know anything about the process.

I had the same business about 30 years ago, while I was in college. Its unlikely that your customers will ask about insurance and bonding for this business type. It might be better to start operating the business and if anyone ever ask for insurance and bonding, decide then if that account is worth the expense. If your business is setup as a corporation or LLC, you would be protected from most liability yourself anyway. Make sure that your contract holds the doctors office or restaurant where the aquariums are located responsible for any damages that may occur. Their employees and customers are more likely to damage the aquarium and spill the water than you are. Try to keep the business small enough to handle the accounts yourself. Having employees is where most of your business troubles will start. More help available if you need it.\n\nI recently retired from the real estate business in Central Florida after 27 years. For the past two years I have been offering free business mentoring services to young entrepreneurs. I can offer a variety of small business ideas depending on your personal interest and abilities.

Could you love someone who is what you the world hates. Most of you people wont even read this rant, and for those that do. Congrats youre as bored as me. The question is, as pathetic as this world and its humans are, why do i even bother being more pathetic with such a stupid question. Why even talk, why not isolate oneself into a shell and run away from stupidity.Why not kill your humanity. When i answer your questions, i seek love. Love people.love me..i am not so bad. I just hate hate hate hate hate myself. and therefor everyone else. Becuase they remind me of me. I destroy, i cannot create. I am the illusion of self. The magic formula is noise and the bottiom of the abyss lacks its creator. Sleep would do you well, the kiss from a snake. Coded words for coded people. Hate. i have 200 words left...ahhhhhhhhhhhh i am asking you if you would watch my realuity tv show. I would not be a retro active abortion. Ill be back, and with this i thee swell to new heights. Love me love me love

Very poetic, you should take up writing poetry, seriously.  Maybe you could find release or joy in that.  I was once where you were, I know of what you speak, and there is only one way out.  I will not reveal it to you for fear that you will think I have alterior motives.  But God will reveal it to you when you are ready, and you will know of nothing more pure and joyous as this.  All you speak of will melt away as the snow, and you will have peace.  You are in my prayers, lost one (I call you that out of respect for being where you are - I too know of the tormet of which you speak), and there is no greater joy in heaven than the return of a son.


range is somewhere between 800-1200. i want to know if anyone has a source to find specifically, how many.

I ask because I have a friend who's mother was a pain in the butt, she wasn't happy with anything, plus she made everyone feel uneasy at dinner, she kept telling everyone where to sit how to pose for pictures then she got so drunk she started crying and yelling at the grooms 80 yr old aunt because she wouldn't take off her pretty hot that matched her outfit. She was just a real thrill to be around. Then she'd say " It's my baby's day I can act the way I want"

If the parents of the bride are paying than she feels like she needs to be involved with everything.  But if not, she shouldn't have any say so in the matter.  She shouldn't of acted the way she did if it was her "baby's" day.  She should of behaved herself and let everyone enjoyed themselves without her crying and whining.


I'm very excited to be going to St Mary's next year, but I'm wondering about martial arts on campus. I've been doing aikido for four years. Is there a dojo near there or classes at either college? Any information would be lovely. Thanks!

Yes in town but unless there is a class in phys.ed. I don't there is on campus. You can always ask a student dorm councilor. no I do noyt type well I'm disabled.


my face starts to turn red especially around the bridge of my nose

you need to go to a doctor.  double vision could be a bad symptom of something.


she said that she could no longer "ride" her man because if she did for to long, she would be able to feel poop comming out, and if she didnt stop it would go everywhere. I havent done it yet, but she said she only did it once. is this true? what other bad things happen if you have anal sex?

there are sooo many bad things....that hole is for out only it is controlled by a muscle called the sphinxer(sp?) and that hole contracts when u poop, anal sex loosens that muscle and u inturn lose control of u'r bowel movements(not after one time, but in time)...u can also get hemorroids(sp?) which never go away unless u get surgery to cut them out, they get inflammed and bleed and are very dangerous....also after anal sex u will be constipated..my friend said she couldn't take a dump for over a week so she had to go to the doctor and get a laxative tablet to put up her butt...u will get small tears which are open and leave u vulnerable to infections and diseases....if u still decide to do it...u need to wear a condom and use lots of K-Y Jelly...not baby oil or vaseline pls....good luck- and just say no if u don't want to...if he doesn't respect u'r wishes then he's not worth it anyway :-)

I am making a DVD for my friend's wedding and I will have all the usual chapter buttons for ceremony, reception, and stuff like that, but I would like to make a time capsule button with pictures of her and her husband as kids and facts like the #1 song when they were born, the price of milk, gas, top movie, price of a stamp, average price of a home and car, average salery.  I will do the same for the day they are married, so it will be interesting to watch with there children in 20 years.

4 example he yells at me for other people leaving the front door open. Like I am supossed to stand next to it all day. I do have3 boys to take care of. But thats not all I get no respect at all becuse I get to stay home with the kids and take care of our home and thats not easy! help I nedd some help here I dont wont to divorse

It is very clear that he has a short fuse. He doesnt handle responsibility at all and he feels like you dont do much. You should probably explain to him in a nice clear firm voice what you are feeling like and what you need from him and you may want to ask him if there is something that you are doing to make him act this way. To every action is a re-action. You both have to be willing to work at the relationship and you will always be working at it. All you can do is make sure you are doing everything you can to make him happy and make sure he really fully understands what your needs are from him. Then you go from there, if he doesnt listen to you and your doing everything he needs from you and he comtinues then you need to go to the next step which would be counseling. Basically if he is not willing to put forth any effort to make your life better and happier then you really do not have a marriage there. And then at that point you may want to play the hard role , if all else fails you can just act as though you dont need him. Start going and doing things on your own and with the kids and do everything else as far as the household but dont pay as much mind to him. ( Start moving on with your life) That may very well stop him in his tracks. Start doing to him what he does to you and if he really does love and care for you he will see it and just tell him "thats what you've been going through and you only done it to make him see it first person."


Why did they build the milenium stadium and Wembley stadium, your country has tons of huge stadiums all over, why build two only used for special occasionns?  It just seems like a waste of money.

Well when the new Wembly is finally ready it won't just be used for "special occasions" such as the FA Cup Final. It is used for International football matches, lower division playoff games and other events such as large music concerts. There were a couple of years where Arsenal actually played their European games there and when London had an NFL Europe team, the London Monarchs, they played their games there. As for the Millenium stadium, it is the home of the Welsh rugby team and has held events such as boxing and also music concerts. They are like the English/Welsh equivalents of Madison Square Garden I suppose...


I just received an iPod shuffle, but not the installer for it.  Where can I get alternative installation software?

First you have to be running Windows 2000 or XP. Or if it is a Mac, v10.2.8 or later.\n\nThen, download iPod Updater: http://www.apple.com/ipod/download/\n\nYou need to have an Apple ID to download the software to update the software for your iPod. It's free to sign up. Then you can download the software to update your iPod...


when u sign they will send u free alerts without entir/exite ..they have system cost 4400 AUS, any one from u want try it and send me comments ?

I know the site.\n\nI use Tricom to trade 4x. Good service.


will he have a pedometer? I'm on a strict exercise program and have to get my miles in.

I would recommend you meet up at the gym and both use the treadmills. Then, you could do some weight training with Him, before a stroll to the cafe for a coffee and a cigarette. After that...who knows?\n\nWhat He REALLY needs is a pedoPHILEmeter to assess prospective catholic priests.


and if it's because they work so hard then why do blacks smell bad too?

I am looking for a very small kitchen space for a food delivery company in downtown Grand Rapids Michigan. I have no idea where to look for space that may be for rent or for sale without just walking around downtown. Is there an effective way to find all retail listings or do I have to pay someone to look for me?

Call a commercial real estate agent. If you're on the 'buying' side of a sale or lease, you don't pay the agent - agents are paid by the seller (or landlord, in the event of a lease).\n\nIf you don't know of any commercial real estate agents, call a repuable local real estate company and ask if they have anyone who specializes in commercial real estate, and if not if they can refer you to someone.


people always wonder how or why i do it shouldnt they mind there business??

you should mind your business haha jk but if you dont want to hear their buisness (what they think) then you should quit listening!! FUCK THOSE GUYS\neven though i hate asians with a passion


Not too bad, but I think you'd better listen to Phill Collins performance on drums, live at Bercy, in Paris, France, in 2004.


Right now, I am going into my 3rd year as an undergrad in a university. I have a 3.45 GPA and still have to take Organic Chemistry, which might bring my GPA a little lower. I slacked off badly my first semester in college and damaged my GPA (oops).\n\nIs it possible to be accepted into any medical school with this kind of GPA? Or should I just give up the dream of being a doctor?

First off, if you're really serious about becoming a doctor don't ever give up. There are multiple roads that lead to "doctorhood" (some which cost more than others) so don't give up just because of grades in the 1st semester. \n\nOkay. I think what you really need to decide is if you're going to give this track you're currently on, everything you've got. As long as you ace all your science classes and prove to your professors that you're serious about becoming a doctor 1st semester grades, which probably didn't have a lot of biochemistry in it, won't matter much. \n\nUnderstanding and getting A's in science isn't as hard as people think. It may be hard work, but it's not hard if you're committed to it and believe in what you're doing. You'll just have to change your life around. Study in groups instead of going out to socialize. Ask your teachers and counselors for help on how to be successful. Be earnest, honest and committed. \n\nThe only other thing is that if you find that you're struggling too much... you'll have to ask yourself if this is where you really belong.


Will they be able to run WWE better considering their popularity and Stephanie's assets, both mental and physical...?

On air they should be reunited because it looks absolutely silly to see a very pregnant Stephanie McMahon with no explanation of who the father is. Back in the day when fans weren't up on what happened in the wrestler's personal lives, maybe something could've been built around it. But since everyone knows that Stephanie McMahon and Triple H are married in real life and are expecting a child, it makes sense to reunite them on air.


Once when I was younger, I accidentally drank hydrogen peroxide and all it did was make me throw up.  If I swallow it now (not alot of it), will it cause any really damaging side effects, besides vomiting?  What if I use it alot?

If you are using it as a mouthwash or to brush your teeth, it won't hurt if you spit it out but a little goes down accidentally.  However, you should not swallow it deliberately!  H2O2 is poison if you get very much of it.


I go from manual labor to machinery induced matrix style victimhood.

when is the best time to put braces and how long do kids stay with them...are they painful?

The age which braces are placed will depend on the severity of your son's malocclusion.  A consult with an orthodontist is generally done at no charge and you should schedule an appointment and have this done as soon as possible so you will know the age to begin the process.  You can see your general dentist for a referral to a good orthodontist.


My employment background is a little sketchy and I was wondering if there are any services out there that will give me and veriy a new and stable work history.

If so how old were you and where did it happen?

First of all, Blackscythe has been reported for abuse.  You don't threaten people over the internet, or in real life, unless you are a fearful little jerk with no sympathy, no compassion, and no human feeling.  And if you're like that, you're not much of a human, and you're certainly no man.\n\nI'm 38, a teacher in junior high school -- which by the way is NOT a cesspool whatsoever.  We have programs in place here, and more and more schools are everywhere, that target, define and help stamp out bullying.  Teachers are trained in the overt and covert forms of it, and are given practical advice on how to combat it. \n\nThat said, I was bullied when I was in elementary, middle, junior high and high school for a variety of reasons.  No one ever made me cry; no one ever broke my spirit.  They just made me stronger and unbreakable, thus doing the exact opposite of what they intended.  I was bullied for my weight, for being a smart girl, for not bothering to hide my brains.  Whatever.  When people bully, it says a lot more about them and their insecurities than it ever does about me and my talents.\n\nRecently, a weird, dysfunctional man in my neighborhood tried to bully me about public parking.  He wanted to "save" public parking places, and I wasn't about to put up with that.  He banged on my car window, and I just looked the other way and very slowly and calmly got my stuff together, hoping that my total lack of reaction would piss him off and throw him off guard -- of course it worked.  He tried to curse at me, and he got up in my space threateningly.  So, I got up in his space, took two steps forward to his one, and screamed and yelled and cursed louder and longer, with more force, more vehemence and more style.  I got up in his face.  I gave it right back with double strength.  And this macho Hispanic dude literally backed away from me, running, with his palms up, submissively.  And of course since that one time that I stood up to him, he has not bothered me since, and I've gained his respect.  He knows not to mess with me, because I don't take it at all whatsoever.\n\nAnd that was what I did to everyone who tried to bully me: I stood up to them, looked them in the eye, and NAMED THEIR BEHAVIOR, framing it in the rudest, most pathetic, disparaging terms I could, to make me look completely innocent and them look like bumbling, fumbling, incompetent, obnoxious morons -- which they were.  Every time, since childhood, these bullies slunk away and I never had another problem.  I felt massively relieved and rewarded.  There is great, great value in having a sharp tongue.  It's because of my sharp tongue and slice-and-dice vocabulary that I've never been in a physical fight in my life; I could just insult the h-e-l-l out of you so that you slunk away in shame.  In a way I realize that what I did bordered on or was verbal abuse right back... but it stopped the attack on me, and there was no other problems were had.\n\nSo, stand up.  Look the person in the eye.  Name their behavior.  Be aware that bullies are always, always cowards.  And once you stand up to these cowards, they always, always back down.  Bullies are scared and insecure, and that weakness can be exploited and preyed upon.  Whatever they are attacking YOU for, that is what they hate and cannot accept in their own selves.  Turn it back on them.  Watch them squirm.  And watch them RUN away.  This is called guerilla psychological warfare.\n\nSo, from an overweight girl who never took s-h-i-t from anyone, I became a confident teacher.  I am there for my junior high school kids.  I empower them, teach them to stand up for themselves, to evaluate themselves, their situations and each other as objectively as possible, and if at all possible, to laugh about it.  And I and all my colleagues watch out for bullying every single day, and we don't let it go.  \n\nTake heart.  The jerks are out there, but they're SO easy to disa


Ok I am 26 years old. I moved out on my own when I was 16. Its a very long story but due to unexpected things beyond our control my mom went through some very hard times and asked me to move in with her. TOGETHER we moved into an apartment...that neither of us lived in before. I pay half the bills she pays the other half. But I am really not happy. There is a reason that I moved out at a young age and it becomes more and more clear every day. Our schedules are that so we only see eachother on the weekends and it seems like that is too much. My kids annoy her just by doing regular kid things (playing,talking during tv shows etc) she doesnt clean up after herself etc. Theres a whole list of things. When our lease is up in January she has decided she wants to get a townhouse or house and wants us to come with her. There is no way I can commit to that. And I have decided that I want to stay here. I do not want the kids to have to change schools again. CONTINUED...

I can relate, somewhat. I live on my own with my 3 children, but my parents are ALWAYS commenting on buying a house together. They do alot for me, so it's hard for me to tell them that buying a house WITH them is not my goal. When they suggest buying a house, it makes me feel like they don't think I'll ever find someone to love me and my kids, and eventually marry me. I'm young and I had kids young, but I'm not going to die alone! They always try to make it more appealing by assuring me they will stay out of my business, but it's never that simple. Try saying it like this....\n"Mom, we love you. Please know that I appreciate all you do for me and how much we love spending time with you. You taught me so much and one of the most important traits you passed on to me was independence. I know you want us to be happy and I know it makes you proud to see me accomplish things all on my own. And I am proud when I can tackle things on my own as well. I'd love to buy a house someday, but I'm not going to do it with you. It's gotten a little "tight" around here for all of us. We're too close to realize sometimes that living with a complete stranger is less stressful. Especially since I don't have to worry about that person, like I do you. I appreciate your concern and wanting us to stay close physically, but it's really for the best. I value our time and memories together more so when we are not together 24/7. Again, we love you but I need to do this. And please don't take me getting a room mate as a reflection on you. I need to feel like I have a life seperate from yours sometimes. I know I can do this."\n\nGOOD LUCK!


I have a teacher at my school that, personaly, I think stinks at grading. No matter how hard I, or any other person for that matter, try she always gives me a bad grade. Do you have anything to say about this? Do you have a teacher or do you try so hard and still get a bad grade? Please tell me about it. I just want to know that my teacher isnt the most evilist teacher alive!!!!

I have been in the same boat as you...and now I am a teacher.  First you need to find out what criteria you need to meet in order to get a better grade.  Talk to the most evilist teacher alive, and let her know you want to get better grades.  Ask her if she has a rubric for grading her papers.

They don't have an argument based on logic. They may be good for employers, but aren't good for those of us who subsidize their education and health care, while our own children's education and our own elderly family member's health care gets worse and worse.

After watching the news this morning and listening about Hillary Clintons possiblilty of running for president in 2008. I couldnt help but ask myself this question. I understand that all the presidents have had spouses and that they have influence and input on the decisions made and I the fact shes a woman not the issue. This would be the first scenario where the president would have actual feedback from a former president at this intimate level. Your thoughts?

Hilary's pet project, the National Health Plan was seriously flawed, and she didn't seem to notice it.  (I am not necessarily against a health plan, but hers seemed designed with so many problems you almost felt it was intended to be voted down.)\n\nHowever, even beyond that, you make a very good point.  We can't ignore the fact that putting her in the White House would bring Bill back. ( I feel like the little girl in Poltergeist - "he's b-a-a-a-ck!" - and all the interns's parents running in to drag them home.)\n\nI couldn't stand to have him in the White House again.\n\nSorry, Hilary.
