I have decided to retire on pension in a few months (at the age of 56). \n\nWhat are the typical mistakes that people make when retiring on pension - mistakes that I should avoid?

Make sure your active and have hobbies.  Alot of people retire and then don't know what to do with themselves.  Set goals for yourself and have fun!


Proverbs 19:29\nJudgments are prepared for scorners, and stripes for the back of fools.\n\nPsalm 1:1-2\n 1Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.\n 2But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.


I'm going to use this for a perswaysive essay so please find real information from the internet or something.   thank you

1. They don't get caught.\n2. Not all child abuse is equal.  Most of your respondents assume it is all severe.\n3. It's the Man!  It's all his fault!\n4. Some are rich enough to hire expensive lawyers\n5. Some ARE expensive lawyers\n6. some are judges\n7. Some flee the country\n8. They successfully blackmail the judge, lawyer, or victim\n9. The victim doesn't realize it's abuse (ever/ until the statute of limitations passes)\n10. The victim decides a legal battle is worse than just letting it go.\n11. The victim decides they want revenge, not legal consequences\n12. The victim is still being victimized and nobody knows because they can't speak (or are tied up in the abuser's basement).\n13. The victim buys into the cycle of abuse and decides to live the same lifestyle\n14. The abuser is in another country that doesn't define the abuse as illegal (ex: slavery in Kuwait)\n15. The legal system is one that easily accepts bribes (Ex: Ukraine and Russia)\n16. People are embarrassed and don't want to think about it, let alone strive to eradicate it.\n\nLast, but not least, prison is not necessarily the most effective way of dealing with this problem.  What do you learn in prison?  Does it really reform people or make more hardened criminals to be dumped right back into jail after they get out (repeat "customers" is great for the prison business).\n\nChildren are seperated from the abusive parent or parents (one abuser plus one enabler = parents) and counseling and probation ensues.  For severe abuse (sexual and other severe trauma), yes, prison.  For things like neglect, psychological, emotional, and non-injurious physical abuse, it may be enough to remove the child from the home (into foster care?).\n\nMany children act out and are removed from the home not because the parent(s) were caught, but because the child acted out either in copying the modeled parental behavior (example: raping a younger sibling) or committing crimes as a way of being removed from home.  Sometimes foster care placement lasts until they are 18, effectively removing the child from their parents.\n\nThere is no simple answer to your question.  If you need to know more or would like to discuss your essay, that's cool, but you should cite me [ex: "(personal communication, {my name},[date])"if you use APA style] .

does anyone know of anything that helps with dry flaky skin?in the winter time my face is the worse after i shower its really red and then i go outside and it itches like crazy especially my forehead does anyone know what the best cheapest face wash there is for me please help

I wouldn't necessarily use any wash on your face.  I kinda have the same problem.  My hands are the worst though.  They crack open and bleed alot.  My face usually gets dried out after a warm shower. I usually put lots and lots of lotion on my hands and body.  That's the only thing that ever helped me.  Make sure you use a lotion with vitamin E in it.  Good luck!~

Focus on what you are doing and realize when your mind starts wandering. You have to keep bringing your self back to your self. And stop the daydreaming!


on sun. i missed my pill by mistake so first thing monday morning i took sun and mondays pills.  mon afternoon i began spotting which did not surprise me because i had missed a pill, although in the past if i have missed i have not spotted.  the spotting stopped pretty quickly, by mon evening it was no longer present.  then just this evening i started bleeding again.  what the heck is going on?  and also right before i started bleeding yesterday and today i started getting this nauseated feeling its kinda weird...

Birth Control does the same thing to me. Its all the hormones in thel that can cause a woman to have irregular periods. Since you took 2 pills Monday, you doubled your intake of hormones, but didnt take any on Sunday. Your body probably just got 'confused' by the lack of hormones on Sunday, then double the hormones on Monday.\n\nSometimes it take up to a year of taking birth control for our periods to get back to 'normal.' And sometimes, after taking it for a year, we don't get our periods at all.


I ripped a dvd to hard drive using dvdfab, then used dvdshrink's re-author option to anylise and encode only the main movie title to another folder.I ended up with several files labelled VTS 01 1, VTS 01 2, and so on, each file is about a gig. My question is how do I convert these files into .avi files. Please don;t concern yourself with the method I used to get to this point, the only thing I need is a program to convert to 'avi files without having to download adware. Thanks for any help.

On what premise can Islam be reformed if the Koran is considered the direct and final word of God ?\n\nAnd if so, how ?

Islam does not need to be reformed, some of the believers in Islam however need to be. (like those who are not willing to reason, terrorists, those who think killing others would take them to heaven.) Such kinds of believers need more education in Islam.\n\nTO answer your question:\n\nOn what grounds then can Islamic scholar can say that a terrorist is not following Islam\n\nI am not an Islamic scholar but I know the answer.\nA terrorist is a person who kills and terrorized others.\nthat is forbidden in Islam. If s/he still does that, than logic would say he is not following his religion\n\n2) On what foundation can a reformist change the understanding of Islam (such as the violent quotes of the Koran)?\n   \n   SOme people including some muslims dont have the full knowledege of the Qur'an. They just take the superficial meaning of the verses. Sometimes they pick and choose the verses they want to follow. \n   This way, they have completely mis-interpreted the Qur'an by not considereing all the related verses.\nSome verses have deeper meaning and need to be interpreted by a person who knoows more about the verse like where, why and when it was revealed. Just taking the superficial meaning will definately lead a person to the wrong way.\n\n    Translation is not the same as interpretation. You can get the best translation of the Qur'an, but you can still mis interpret it if you dont know have much knowlege of it.\n\nTherefore, these people need to be more educated in the Qur'an, explaining to them that some verses cannot just be interpreted that way people want. They have to be interpreted by those who have the knowldge to do so.


I was really fed up with how my boyfriend was acting and in the heat of the moment, I told some people I wasn't with him anymore. We worked everything out and he apologized and said he has just been under a lot of stress, which I do understand(long story) anyways, word got around to this guy, "Alex" and my boyfriend and "Alex" use to be really good friends, but after my boyfriend went into his group home they stopped hanging out. So my brother tells me that on Friday when I was at my sister's "Alex" came over looking for me and my brother and him got to talking. Turns out, "Alex" heard me and my boyfriend weren't together and asked my brother for his approvement,I guess,to be with me. I never thought of "Alex" like that and I don't want to sound bad or anything, but after thinking about it I'm curious. I LOVE my boyfriend and I would never leave him, but I can't get over this weird feeling I have about "Alex" ever since I found out "Alex" likes me like that, I have been wondering...

You have to think about wether you would sacrifice your relationship with your boyfriend in order to relieve your curiosity.


I have had bellspalsy in the past in fact i have had 2 bouts in the last 6 yrs. im pretty much normal now, but my last  episode was in 2003, three years ago and my eyes still water  more when i eat or drink.. does anyone know if this is normal? im tired of looking like i been crying all the time, im really a happy person .

Hello,\n\nAs I am sure you know by now, Bell's palsy affects the VII cranial nerve.  That is the nerve that controls the facial musculature, including eye lids.  So the first question is, do you think you have a normal blinking pattern in the affected eye.  Compare it with the normal eye.  If both eyes are tearing, that is less likely due to Bell's as that is a local and thus one-sided process.  Additionally, the facial nerve carries nerve impulses to the lacrimal or tear glands, so it may be at work here, but again that would usually be a one one sided process. \n\nAs far what to do about the tears...manually blink your eye using the back of your finger at regular intervals, and especially when it feels dry.  If blinking is not a problem, or if the tearing continues, I'd see an ophthalmologist.  Hope that helps.

My boyfriend can be very old fashion, and it is sometimes hard to accept.  For example, he always opens the door for me, which is fine.  People should open doors for other people.  But anytime I hold the door open for him, he refuses to go through it.  I haven't said anything about this because, well, I'm not really sure if it's important or if I am overreacting.  It's not the act itself that bothers me, it's what the act symobolizes.  This is just one small example but for some reason it's the one "old fashion" thing he does that gets to me most.

As a guy who holds the door for his girl I have to admit that it is hard to accept when she does it for me.  I guess I see it as part of my obligation to always let the woman go first.  Over time I've come to accept that my girl wants to also feel like she is doing something chivelerous.\n\nJust talk to him and let him know that you want to be able to open doors for him and that by him refusing he isn't respecting you as an equal.


I saw a show on PBS, the firemen saved a temple in the middle of the firestrom.

The Battle of Britain is the name for the general air war over Britain.  It is also reffered to as the "Blitz".  It started as an attack against the RAF, but switched to a campaign of bombing London in September 1940.\n\nBlitzkrieg refers to the "lightning war" (literal translation) where German armies quickly stormed other countries, defeating them in weeks.  This is opposed to trench warfare, where years are spent moving the frontline only short distances.\n\nUsing air superiority was a tactic of blitzkrieg, to soften enemy defenses before attack.\n\nThe allies also bombed Germany heavily, I believe causing more civilian deaths than British civilian deaths.

I think that, with a strong showing in the World Cup, that, by 2010 (the next year that the World Cup is played), soccer will be one of the big four sports in the United States, replacing hockey and joining baseball, football and basketball. MLS attendance is up and still going strong after 10 years, more kids are playing soccer than ever before, and those kids are now growing up to play and follow soccer later in life. Players like Donovan, Johnson, Twellman and, eventually, Freddy Adu are becoming household names, and I don't think that you can ignore them anymore.\n\nI think that the mindset that soccer will never be popular in the United States is slowly changing, and I think that with a strong performance in this year's World Cup, it will lead to even more change.\n\nNow if we can just get ESPN to start showing more highlights. What do you think?

If you mean by how society rates them, then no.  Soccer will not be ranked among the top four.  Football, pro and college, will stay as number one.  Basketball, pro and college, will also stay up there.  Hockey has slipped out and baseball is teetering on the brink.  If the steroid scandal hits hard, baseball could take a HUGE hit.  If soccer is to be considered a top four, it would have to overcome NASCAR, golf, etc.  Poker gets better ratings on TV.  Adults play more softball than soccer.  Regionally, it would be hard to take hockey out of the midwest and northeast as a big four. \n\nFor soccer to become a big four, the U.S. would have to win two World Cups in a row, an Olympic gold or two, and have some Gretzky/Jordan/Montana/Ruth type of player.


And how does this beloved true man of god support it all?

You sound a little skeptical.  I know Hinn and a number of others.  Like a lot of them they started out as good people wanting to make a difference.  Along the way they found fame, fortune and the "perks" that follow with it.  Sometimes the "show" of televised church becomes more important than the ministry.\n\nThe problem with Hinn is he started using a parlor trick using hypnosis as a healing effect.  A simple test to see if someone is ripe for suggestion in hypnosis is to rock them back and forth.  This tells you the person is relaxed and trusting.  What the camera does not show you at his crusades are his people testing people for this.  They are told what Hinn is going to do and to just "accept" the healing and fall backwards into their arms.\n\nThese people are lined up one after another and you see on tv that they must be knocked over by the power of the Lord.  I have seen people that did not speak English or were deaf and did not understand the rules not move at all when he put his hand on their head.\n\nLong before he was officially "exposed" on dateline I was working on doing some things at his crusade.  One was I planned on bringing a friend that has only one arm and see if he can heal him.  You will never be allowed on stage with that condition so we would have had to put a fake arm on him.  Then at the right moment pull it off when Hinn asks the problem.\n\nHowever it seemed shortly after we planned this Hinn had a fat lady fall down on an elderly lady and the elderly died.  So that got enough debunkers attention there.\n\nThere are many, many other tv tricks that Oral Roberts and Tilton others did.  Some of them pretty smart.


Man as lover <-- give an opinion to that...help me now pls...

man is a lover because i decided that the grass is now blue when i say green before yes.


say if you like this girl alot but you know other people pick on her and call her names. what would you do to talk to her?

Depending on the atmosphere and administration at your school, there's a good chance the counselor, vice principal, or principal can "do something" about the harrassment thing.  She (or one of her friends) should just tell the truth, and shouldn't be afraid to go back to the counselor or principal if it continues.  Nobody should have to put up with that.\n\nFrom the perspective of the person being picked on, if this person shows they are hurt or can't face the people picking on her, the jerks will keep being jerks.  But if she can turn straight to them, look them square in the eye, and calmly say "go pick on somebody else", and then calmly walk away - it should help.\n\nAs for talking to her... that's easy.  She should be just like talking to anyone else.  I'll guarantee she just wants to have a normal conversation with a normal person.  The guy just says hi, and talks about whatever he wants to.  Just like getting to know anybody else, the first conversation doesn't have to be any more than a couple seconds.

I want to know why, today, people are still thinking that one race is better than the other - or that in a melting pot society, race even truly exists?  WHY does racism still thrive, when there is overwhelming evidence of its inaccuracy?  WHERE does the fear come from, and HOW are people enabled to continue to spread this hate?  WHY do so many people pretend racism is dead, and WHY are so many people allowed to spread their racist propeganda?  Basically, what the hell are people thinking?????

I can honestly tell you that thet root of racism is directly related...at least in the U.S to series of events that most of us don't ralize are there because we don't MAKE THE TIME to inform ourselves. racism, war and poverty are a direct result of U.S interventions thru out the world in order to intimidate people w/ ideals that might pose a threat to THE U.S GOVERMENT...NOT THE PEOPLE OF THE U.S., BUT THE GOVERNMENT...this has been going on for at least the last 50 years. \nthe secret gov't spreads racism by means of terror.\nthis is a list of countries that the U.S has invaded since the 1950's  till today.\nIRAN, cambodia, VIETNAM, GUATEMALA, CHILE, EL SALVADOR, CUBA, EGYPT, IRAQ, AFGANISTAN,LAOS,PANAMA, BOLIVIA...the list goes on and on.\nthe U.S secret gov't is responsible for more than 5 millions of deaths and atrocities thru out this counries.\nRACISM exists because we allow the people that are supposed to represent us to do as they wILL. WE HAVE THE POWER TO END RACISM BUT WE CAN ONLY DO IT BY BECOMING CONSCIOUS AND CREATING SOLIDARITY THRU OUT THE WORLD.THE PEOPLE HAVE THE POWER, WE HAVE THE POWER TO CREATE A BETTER WORLD FOR ALL. BUT WE MUST SPEAK OUT AND BECOME INVOLVED AND FIND DIFFERENT SOURCES OF ALTERNATIVE INFORMATION.


i'm supposed write an essay on this but i don't have any idea abt this stuff\n   please help me out

It's nothing to do with the moon. When any wave reaches the shore, it slows down, piles up higher and higher, and if you observe carefully you will see it draws some of the water in front of it backwards to help fill the wave crest before it breaks. The same thing happens on a very much larger scale in a tsunami. The "tide goes out", then comes back with a vengeance. Since tsunamis can consist of more than one wave, this out-in cycle may repeat a few times.


!WARNING!\nFirst before I even answer your question.  I just like to warn you that if your actually attempting a stunt like this be very careful.  Connecting 100 AA Batteries(1.25V) in series will produce 125 Volts.  Be very careful with it!\n\nAnswer:\nThe SI units of the electric field are volts per meter.\nThe equation for an electric field is: (E=V/r)\nWhere E=Electric Field, V=Voltage, r=distance from point.\nSo a higher electric field means two things: Higher voltage, or less distance. In order for you to get the highest voltage connect the batteries in series as follows:\n\nConnection: \nYou would need to connect the battery in series as follows to get the highest voltage. \n Bat1  Bat2  Bat3  Bat4  Bat5  Bat6      Bat100\n[- +]o[- +]o[- +]o[- +]o[- +]o[- +]o....[- +]o\n\n\nWhy:\nThe electric field is dependent on the voltage and distance. Increasing voltage will directly increase the electric field.  Decreasing distance will increase the electric field. Look at the equation above. E=V/r\n\nAnother way to think of it:\nThink of Voltage as pressure. And a ball as an point charge(electron).  Suppose you have a water hose and a ball.  You have to use the water hose to move the ball around.  If your too far away from the ball, the water will not reach the ball and the ball won't move.  The same thing happens in electric field.  The electric field is too far from the electron to make it move.  Now suppose you increase the pressure on the water hose.  Because of the increased pressure(Voltage) the water will shoot further and hit the ball, thus moving it.  If your very close to the ball you can use the water pressure(Voltage) to move the ball faster.


No similar questions found... (sniff) I'm so proud of them...

I have 'all day bed head', my hair is long and frizzy, that's why I've given my avi straight hair, as that's what my ultimate goal in life is. :)


This has happened several times where I'd call but the girl never wants to talk to me or anything, and make up false reasons to hang up.

That's a good question.  Probably because they are what I call complete "time-wasters"\n\nThey waste time, emotion, and mislead others into liking them bc it gives them a rush to know some guy is interested in her.\n\nMay I suggest you aim at older women... say around 30+ because they WILL talk and do much more and you know what? Those are the women that were once 20 and didn't talk bc they thought they were hot tamales and now their getting old, ugly & desparate.


Why did chef (issac hayes ) leave in the first place?

Like everyone said, Hayes (who is a Scientologist) quit because of South Park's creators' intolerance of religions, BUT Hayes has voiced Chef in dozens of episodes that have lampooned Christianity's silliness, and the Mormons' strange story, and Jewish stereotypes...\nApparently he doesn't consider those actual religions?? Or was he just okay with the so-called intolerance because it wasn't HIS religion (and I use that term L O O S E L Y with regard to Scientology!)


I know there were several Greek words that are translated as "love". Which one was used in this particular instance?

Agape\n\nIt is in an ancient dialect called Konie Greek. It was spoken by common people. The Greek had a few different words for our one English word love. \n\nAgape means principled love.


First I want to just say I'm not trying to belittle you by asking this, I'm just curious since I've never really cared for sports myself.

I need help when i look at girls kissing i feel all excited and happy its like its new.I am young and i shouldn\n't be worrying about this stuff.But i need help am i a lesbian?

Well, you're right- you shouldn't be worrying about it. You like who you like, you're attracted to whomever you are attracted to. It's confusing to be a teenager- hormones are a crazy thing. \nI think if you are a lesbian, you probably already know the answer to your own question, honey. On the other hand, if you've always found yourself attracted to boys and you've suddenly been exposed to something NEW (porn, I would assume), that doesn't necessarily mean you are a lesbian and I would caution you NOT to drive yourself insane trying to figure it out. You would certainly NOT be the 1st straight female to be "excited" by those types of images- as there are PLENTY of women who do, who also consider themselves straight.\nIf you have ALWAYS been attracted to other females, perhaps you do have some not-so-straight tendancies. But I wouldn't worry about that TOO much- it's not the end of the world, but it will take some time to get used to it and whether or not you are comfortable enough with it to talk about it to others. \nThe bottom line is to not make too big a deal of it. If you are anxious or nervous about how you feel, my advice would be to stay away from it until you know yourself a little better. Don't add more confusion where it just isn't necessary. Just relax and enjoy being YOURSELF- and finding out who you really are. Your sexual orientation is what it is and you WILL figure it out, probably sooner than you think.  \nIf you think there's anything else I can help you out with, feel free to contact me by clicking on my profile- there's a link you can use to contact any one of us here. Some "answerers" don't have themselves signed up to receive email from others, but mine is set up that way. Best of luck to you!

Yes it is biologically related. Pheromones (chemical scents that all of us emit) influence the menstural cycle of women, and are the cause of this phenomenon.\n\nCheck out the link for a more scientific explanation: http://serendip.brynmawr.edu/biology/b103/f00/web2/braha2.html\n\nThis phenomenon is widespread in nature. Plants use a similar mechanism to thwart pests. I.e. when a plant gets attacked by pests, it releases a pheromone which alerts other plants -- which enables them to build up defenses to combat the pest. http://www.jhu.edu/~newslett/01-28-99/Science/3.html


If any of you feel the same way I do. We should take action in that even if it is just becomig IM friends. That way we ask each others opinion. Not many young people feel this way anymore. I love God. Iwant to serve him to the best of my ability.

I'm not a teen but I am filled with the Holy Spirit accepting Christ in to my life has been the best thing I have ever done in my life. My life has changed so much for the better it is truly an amazing experience. He has made a way out of no way. Keep speading his word God Bless


Just ask him.  Us guys would really appreciate if women took it upon themselves to ask us.  I'll bet he'll be appreciative and go out with you.  Good luck.


I have tried different diets, e.g Weight Watchers although I lost a stone when I weighed in the next meeting and the others meetings I had attended the weight that I had lost was all put back on. Working now in the hospital in the kitchen washing dishes and other chores, I sweat alot which I replace with water, drinking more than 2 litres and living mainly on salads and still no weight reduction. Now it is affecting my health - high blood pressure which is being taken care of my medication, asthma - also with medication.  Now I am finding it more and more difficult to get out of bed, like my body is worn out with aches and pains. Constantly I have to have my feet massaged.  Hoping to find something to help me try to lose and ease the burden on my poor tired body.

Have you been checked for Diabetes, Hypothyroid, Iron Defiency, Metabolism irregularities?\n\nSome of what you describes fits Hypothyroid perfectly.. eyes puffy, maybe bulging a bit?  Dry skin and constipation?  Alligator pattern of dry skin on your shins?  Numbness/tingling in your forearms/hands?  \n\nIt is also possible that you have Chronic Fatigue Syndrome or Fibromyalgia, neither of which can be proven with a medical test, but those other options need to be ruled out first.  Please see your physician...and best wishes!


have witchcraft source books that can be read on line?

I don't know that there are source books online, I've never seen one.  However there are many sites where you can talk to people, and groups just about everywhere.  You will get better info talking to a person rather than trying to learn from books.  Books give you the basics, they don't give you the depth that you need to actually learn about witchcraft.  If your just looking for spells, their everywhere also.  You can always see if this site helps you out:  http://www.mind-n-magick.com/


My weight is 97 KG and my length is 176 cm , But I don't appear fat it's retalivly good  but I want to loose more weight what can I do ??????

For what reason do you want to lose weight? If you don't look fat and if you feel healthy, you probably have no need to lose weight. Remember, muscle is heavier than fat, so from the dimensions you gave, you might just be big-boned or a very muscular person.\n\nAnyway, if you still want to lose weight, consult your doctor regarding a good plan.\n\n97 kg = (approx.) 213.4 lbs.\n176 cm = (approx.) 5'9"


1. ¿How do I interpret a water analysis? No parameter seems to be wrong, does this mean water is safe to drink, even if it has not passed any treatmen?

Are these as effective and do they have advantages??\n3. ¿What is the correct dosis of clorine to disinfect water and what time of residence is apropiate?\n4. ¿What parameters (aspects) should a disinfection programm content?\n\nThanks ;)

1. The EPA has set maximum amounts of contaminents for drinking water. here is a table http://www.water-research.net/standards.htm\n\n2. You could use ultra-violet, this works well, also ozination.\n\n3. A gallon jug of household bleach down the well casing usually does the job. After dumping the bleach in, run water at every spigot in the house until you smell bleach. shut water off and let sit for 12 hours, then run water until color is clear and smell has dissipated.\n\n4> ?

because that's what a well-designed logo is all about: a simple mark with a primary and secondary meaning. often the secondary meaning is known only to insiders. for example, the bmw logo is actually and abstract of an airplane propellor (white) against a sky (blue). bmw made airplane engines when the logo was designed. in the case of the fedex logo, it's a great, simple logo that can be easily seen on a package or a tail of an airplane, with an arrow representing motion.


i am a college student and i want to buy a house.  my income is nowhere i think it needs to be to be able to afford a house.  but is there some way most people might not know about (some secret way an individual like me can afford a house)

try houses seized by government auctions, they may have some fixing up to do, but I'm sure it would be way cheaper than buying a new one (especially on a loan)


Many experts predicted a rise in rates earlier this year. It didn't happen.


They are used most commonly as weather balloons to study atmospheric conditions for environmental research, such as how severe storms form, the cause and effects of global warming, etc.  If you go to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration website, you can find lots of information on the history of using weather balloons, as well as how they are used today:\n\nhttp://www.noaa.gov/search.html  \n(search for "pibal" or "balloon")\n\nhttp://www.ofcm.noaa.gov/fmh3/text/chapter1.htm\nhttp://www.ofcm.noaa.gov/fmh3/text/chapter6.htm\n\nThey are also used by NASA to research techniques for missions to other planets:\n\nhttp://www.centennialofflight.gov/essay/Lighter_than_air/Planetary/LTA16.htm\n\nI hope you find these sites interesting!


just be nice to her and compliment her on stuff.  like if she gets an A on an assignment or if her hair looks cool.  if she likes you too go for it.  you have nothing to lose.  girls want guys to be straight forward with them instead of stalling!  good luck with the girl...hope she says yes :)


also a external ip address why is it hidden?\nif i send a email to someone can i get there ip\naddress from my full headers somehow?

For some people, when they connect to the internet, they have to connect through a proxy server. This server has its own address on the internet, the proxy address.\n\nBehind this is your computer, which has its own address.\n\nIt happens that some sites that "suggest" they tell you what your IP address is, actually report back what your proxy's IP address is and not your computer. This 'can' break all sorts of software and forwarding techniques for you.\n\nThere is no way for us, the public to get hold of an IP address from an email. We can see who it was routed through but other than that you need to ask the originating ISP and the only people with the power to do that are government agencies.\n\nhth


we love each other so much and i trust him no matter wat the reason is he cant live with out me and he will never leave me and i am waiting 4 him 2 tell me

She asked if we can go and see friends before we eat? I replied..only if you treat me nice ;) She replies..Only if you are a good boy..(Background:she is just my friend but she I have told her that I like her but she said she does not have the same feelings)...so what signals are these?.. I like to think that she has the same feelings but wants to take time. What do you think and Why?

maybe she is being a little bad cause she is treating you like if she likes you and then she is telling you that she doesnt and if u want to know if she likes you ,dont treat her as always , stay more serious until she talks to you ...........hope it works


The Idiots in the White House would be there name.\n\nThey could all were T-Shirts saying, "I'm with stupid".\nThese shirts would each have arrows pointing to the left and the right side.


Why is it that we can't fly, or read minds, or move things with a simple thought? You guys are probably thinking I'm just asking a stupid question but it's true. I am sure that if we saw someone do any of the above, we'd be impressed and start practicing. And by the end of the year 1000 people would be able to fly, or read minds. At one point it was thought to be impossible to run a mile in under 5 minutes... and then someone did it. Then it was thought impossible to run one in under 4 minutes and guess what... someone did it. Then everyone started doing it. I think we need to open our minds up and realize anything is possible.

You are entirely correct! The power of the mind is limitless. The reason we humans have such low expectations is because we are weak at mind and conscious. We constantly underestimate ourselves, we humans are by far the most intelligent things to have ever existed on earth, we simply lack the drive and fear too many things.

I'm looking to increase body mass and strength though I also cross train for stamina. What I'm seeking is a basic outline programme that caters for all major muscle groups.

well ive always been kind of a health freak but i never followed someone elses outline.Im in the national guard and we do alot of the basics...Sit ups push/pull ups,and a crap load of running.when i was a kid i did a lot of swimming it helped not only endurance,but it works every part of the body.i also rode my bike everywhere (still do even with a car).i mean ive weighed 123 for about the last 5 years and thats befor and after puberty.


I once learned that the three presidents were from the same family tree. I would like to know if this is true or not.

The people who are giving you grief are completely wrong. \n\nGeorge Washington is George W. Bush's 11th cousin, 8 times removed; Thomas Jefferson is GWB's 12th cousin, 7 times removed; and John Quincy Adams (John Adams's son) is GWB's 5th cousin, 6 times removed. \n\nLots and lots of the presidents are related to each other.

do i need a special kind of cord or should i just get another modem for the other computer?

Get a device called a "router".  It pretends to be a computer for your cable modem.  Your computers plug into the router (or connect wirelessly), and share the internet access.


Ok some people think abortion should be OK, and some people hate it.  Your thoughts please?

Your question is awkward.  Of course, I believe that it exists!  There is plenty of evidence for that.\n\nDo I think that it's right that a woman should kill her unborn baby because the pregnancy will be inconvenient in her life?  She's not God, so of course not.\n\nFor those who say that every child should be a wanted child:  shall we just round up all the unwanted children in the world and execute them?  What a ridiculous argument.\n\nThere is nothing shameful about not being ready for parenthood.  Women who place their babies for adoptions are committing an extremely loving act.  \n\nI have little respect for those who kill their children just because the children might get in the way of their other plans in life.  Hitler had the same argument.

talking about political ideas more inparticular policies we need to think about making it better by progression not by forced taxes and levies but by freedom of choice our choice \ndon't buy my food my home my medicine just get out of my way and i will get it myself. speaking of our govt. people believe in yourself don't let them kennel us

I usually try to learn about it first--reading the newspaper, listening to some tv or radio news, or reading news magazines like Time or Newsweek.  \n\nIt's pretty easy to form an opinion and speak too readily (I sure still do it!) but listening to different points of view and thinking it thru before we speak is better.\n(I know it makes me look more intelligent too! :)

I am moving to a different state soon, and am wondering what my chances are of finding a job (online) before I go.  If anyone has gotten a job this way, I'd love to hear about it- thanks!

I have gotten job offers without being interviewed, because I am a teacher in a field with a shortage.  People have wanted to hire me just because of my certification, without even talking to me or checking up on me.  I have never taken any of those jobs, because there is usually a reason they can't get someone to stay.\n\nAnyway, don't count on the internet.  At least get on the phone.  I have even seen an interview happen over the phone with someone from out of state.

If they came with your Dell, then you either have the backup disks (unless you lost them) or all the original software is stored on a separate partition on your hard drive.

I'm mostly on your side. MJ needs a lot more than a slap, but Richard? hey, he may be annoying to some people, but he has done a LOT of good for people. he hurts no one, and helps people who are overweight. I agree, his hair is annoying, but common', give the guy a break.

I find that it is easier if you pick a theme. For my sis's b-day I chose "relaxing" as a theme. I bought a basket and filled it with books and bath items. For my teenage niece I made her a movie night basket with a couple of girly movies, some popcorn, and pop. You can make a basket of whatever you want, even if it is just random stuff put together. How about a beauty basket? Makeup, hair accessories, bath items, jewelery, a cute scarf, etc.

pro·cras·ti·nate    (pr-krst-nt, pr-) KEY  \n\nVERB: \npro·cras·ti·nat·ed , pro·cras·ti·nat·ing , pro·cras·ti·nates \nVERB: \nintr. \n\nTo put off doing something, especially out of habitual carelessness or laziness. \nVERB: \ntr. \n\nTo postpone or delay needlessly. \n\nProcrastination is the act of procrastinating, putting tasks off to a future, delaying, deferring, postponing, not getting around to tasks.\n\nThere are number of possible cures to procrastination. You can overcome procrastination with various psychological methods. It is also possible to stop procrastination with energy work techniques. Some people succesfully utilize just simple time management techniques to end procrastination in its tracks.\n\nWhichever technique to quit procrastination one will choose, the most important factor for breaking the procrastination habit is persistence. Habits are tough to break, the procrastination habit being one of the toughest. \n\nProcrastinating is a serious problem affecting 25-70% of population. According to the research done by McCown & Roberts, 40% of people have experienced loss due to procrastination and around 25% of people claim their problem to be chronic.\n\nIt is one of the most expensive problems one could ever have. If an average procrastinator would count up the losses from missed opportunities in school, carreer and personal life, when expressed in monetary terms, it would often be an impressive amount of money. Not counting the emotional and psychical losses - often even more depressing.\n\nProcrastination is not laziness. Most people, who were never affected by this problem, will show very little understanding for problems that usual procrastinator is facing every day in real life - which will add even more to her/his problems. Others will attempt to help with well meant time management advices, wondering why the procrastinator is impossible to implement them, thinking she/he must be lazy. Again, that will just make the problem deeper and more depressing.\n\nProcrastination, though not officially classified as such, is a psychological problem that can have roots in (or comes alongside with) several officialy recognized "illnesses" (eg. phobia, depression, low self-esteem). Other causes can range anywhere from bad time management abilities to problems with authorities, self-sabotage, bad decision making or self-motivational issues. \n\nMore info in the links!

I am 18yrs old and still live with my mom but I wish she would stop talking to me like a little it gets very frustrating.

why don't you ask her what she was like at your age and did her mum treat her like a kid as well....without making it sound rude...


I have a sound issue which makes my sound distorted and lags as if processing too much. Wasnt like this at first, using XP, convinced is registry issue. PLease tell me which is safest free registry cleaner. thanks

I use a CCLEANER daily.  It can delete temporary Windows and IE files, as well as detect and remove useless/old/unused registry keys and entries.  The software is free and is updated regularly.  I highly recommend it, even if it's not exactly what you're looking for in this post.  It's just a good day-to-day maintenance application to have.


i need to make sure some answers for my college trig are correct\ntan^2 x - sec^2 x = ???\nexact value of sin 2a, given that sin a = 5/13, with the angle a in Quadrant II.\nexact value of cos 75

For the first part, use the fact that tan^2(x) = sin^2(x)/cos^2(x) and sec^2(x) = 1/cos^2(x) to transform your expression into (sin^2(x)-1)/(cos^2(x)). Then take the well-known identity sin^2(x) + cos^2(x) = 1 and re-write it to get sin^2(x)-1 = -cos^2(x). You should get -1 in the end.\n\nOr you could start with sin^2(x)+cos^2(x)=1, divide all terms by cos^2(x) and solve for tan^2(x)-sec^2(x). You should get -1 here as well.\n\nTo get sin(2a) use the double-angle formula:\nsin(2a)=2sin(a)cos(a)\nYou've got sin(a) but not cos(a), so draw the angle in the second quadrant whose sine is 5/13. This should give you cos(a) = -12/13 (you're going to have the ever famous 5-12-13 right triangle).\n\nFor cos(75), 75 degrees isn't an easy to use angle measurement but 150 degrees is. So use the half-angle measurements to write the cos(75) in terms of cos(150), which you can compute by drawing the 150 degree angle in the second quadrant and using ratios of 30-60-90 right triangles.\n\nHalf-angle formula:\ncos(a) = sqrt((1+cos(2a))/2)\nLet a = 75 to get cos(75) in terms of cos(150), figure out cos(150) from the appropriate 30-60-90 right triangle and plug it in.


i want to succeed in life..plz suggest me the right place to go for further studies.and it shd be cheap

It depends where you are from and what you want to do. In general terms, the US is the best place for opportunities without question. The US system of higher education have worked very well for hundreds of years and research is striving in both public and private institutions. I am sure Australia is cheaper, however, there are many options in the US that can help you obtain excellent education for good price. There are universities in some States like Utah that don't charge much. You can also start your first couple years in a reputable community college and then transfer to a university afterwards. Always choose the Community College close to the university where you want to go and call the admission in that university to ask about their experience with that community college.\nI don't want to fill you up with alot of info but I just want to highlight the many opportunities there are to study in the US for less money. With hard work you will succeed regardless of the place you choose.\nGood luck :)

Well the easy answer is an old joke: Whats the difference between a lost golf ball and a g-spot? Men will look for a lost golf ball. I'd suggest you change your dating habits and be a little more vocal with your partners.

I've tried many over the counter ointments and creams with no success.

I used to suffer with sebborich dermatitus. I went to the dermatologists, etc. It is similiar to psoriasis. I suffered worse during winter months, summer time when I was outdoors and enjoyed the sun, I had less issues. I did not respond well to treatments offered via prescription. I did find a vaulable use with Aveenoo lotion. Its oatmeal formula offered a big relief. It is non greasy and offers very good relief fromthe flaking, etc. Hope this helps!

I'm seeking a name as an artisan for a rennaissance group and am interested in your answer.

Calyborri\n\nCalyborri Ine Kneale was my ancestress from Mallenhowne, Isle of Man.\n\nAlwara, Alvarissa, Lucia, Alice, Helwise, Bridget, Ada, etc. are all other names from that time period in my family tree.\n\nIf you want Norse/Viking names, I have a BUNCH of those too!


Who's the best? Who's the worst? Who does and does not nail the song? Who always make Randy say 'it wasn't aiiiiiight for me'? Who always get Paula to get off her seat and start cheering? If you are still not very sure who will win this year,you may pick your top 3 likely to win this highly-rated reality tv show.

Here's my top three for American Idol this year:\n1)Elliott because he can sing well and yet he is just homely enough to get sympathy votes and make us feel good that we could advance his career and be the ones to discover his talent.\n2)Katherine because she is talented and beautiful and last night's being in the bottom three will surely humble her from being too prideful.\n3)Mandisa because she already had a career before she became a contestant.  She can sing with great power and is a beautiful role model.\n\nBucky and Kellie can only sing one way and they are not that good.  Randy will always be saying to them, "Dude for me that was just ariiight."  \n\nPaula loves to stand and dance any time she can.  She has the hots for Ace but tries to be encouraging to everyone who can entertain, like Taylor.

Hearing lots of references to something that happened with Star Jones and a big fight. Very curious as to what happened and what it was about?

Yeah, I think that Star kept going on and on about her surgery and the aftermath.  Joy got tired of listening to her and went on to other things.  And then I think Star said that things hadn't changed there at all and that Joy was a b*tch.


Most of the guys I know are all after the girl thats the most skinny and pretty. They look at whats on the outside and not on the inside. Most of the guys that go for these types of girls get their hearts broken. But I've had my share of a broken heart... but anyway why can't guys go for the heart not the looks???

because when they were little they were not allowed to play with Barbie - so now that they are older they can play with what they want.


have high blood pressure and started medicine today alot of stress last few years

All right, here is the deal.  I don't usually tell people what to do on this forum, but let me warn you, the excessive intergestion in the setting of chest pain is a classic sign of an inferior (meaning lower part of the heart) heart attack.  Now this may just be heartburn as suggested above, but if you are having chest pain with lots of burping right now, you may want to go to the ER just to be safe, or at least call your doctor or a nurse to ask them what to do.


I don't know how to go about telling him because I don't want to scare him away if he does not feel the same but we are already friends I feel a connection to him.

I am going through the same deal, except I am no where close to the love part yet. It is difficult to lay yourself out on a line when your not certain they feel the same. I am beginning to understand you just have to take that plunge if you care enough that it worries you and your ready to express it. I need to take my own advice.

just use them everyday, gradually you'll learn yourself, books is of little help other than for reference on doing something that may be dangeruous to the computer. I learn computer myself without the help of any books or anyone, just by using it and go.


I live in nice suburban area in Ohio, and the Cleveland City Schools are pathetic!! I studied education and think it is very unfair that students who reside in low income districts are held to the same standards (proficiency testing) as students who attend very wealthy, comfortable, safe and well equipped schools. These students have new computers, new textbooks, state of the art science labs and gorgeous gymnasiums etc. Do you think it is right to compare students who attend a school with rats, leaky roofs, outdated books, poor heating and have old or no computers to students who attend schools that are so very advanced. Do you think that all of the taxpayer money should go into one pot and be divide up equally to each school district. As the children should not be held accountable for school's that are in such poor condition. I understand that we are in a higher tax bracket and have paid in more money. However, we are all a part of this country and I for one would like to see all children treated equal and given the same opportunities!!

Yeah, I grew up in NE Ohio, and the Cleveland City Schools are just a mess. Same with my school district down in Canton. I think that we just need to completely revamp the entire school system for many of the schools not just in NE Ohio.\n\nWe need motivated teachers, curriculums that focus on helping our students become well-rounded students, rooms that are setup for our students to be the best that they could be, but, most of all, we need parents who are behind their kids and act as their motivation and give them a good kick in the ass when they need it.\n\nThings need to change, and while we might not be up to the standards that Europe or the Far East might have, I still think that American schoolchildren are just as good in numerous aspects of intelligence and schooling.\n\nWe need change now!

I want to find all the k-12 pictures that where taken of me and my siblings through the school years. Is their any way. I want to purchase them, all our school photos where lost and ruined through the years. Please help me out.

I really doubt you can do that, I don't think they keep the pictures. I guess the only thing I can recommend is calling the school(s) and finding out what company they used, and go from there.

What happens when a nuclear laboratory reports decreased tracer uptake is seen to the septal wall.  What does mean redistribution of the septal wall?What happens

Nuclear tests are great at telling you where there is deficit of blood flow.  That implies narrowing of a particular coronary artery.  "Decreased tracer uptake" in the septal wall means the artery that supplies the septum (the musculafr divider between left and right side of the gheart) may be blocked to some degree (but not fully).  It means you are at the risk of a heart attack to this area and may need an angiogram to take a closer look (and to open the blockage if ned be). Work with your cardiologist about it and good luck!


Should i assume it is broken? Can you "gain" double-jointedness? Would pain and swelling be a clue? can i just tape it to the middle finger?

try chewing on it...and if it comes off, then it's probably a sign that u r turning into a zombie!


i work with heavy equipt. all day and they all have backup alarms on them well i had one right in my ear all day to day. it sounds like when you change the tv to a channel that has all the little colored bars on it. how do i make it go away

go to sleep , it is the VERY best choice it really helps. and if u cant , watch an exciting movie and u'll forget allll about it, trust me.


I am taking a nutrition class and I have to come up with a one day diet plan for a 10 year old girl whose parents had confined her to a closet and greatly restricted the dietary intake for approximately 2 years.  Her height and weight are much less than expected for a 10 year old child.  Also I have to explain why I chose the number of calories and food types.  Anybody got any ideas.

i would say whole milk is very healthy and has calcium, green vegetables, beans for protein, apples, bananas, grapes,oranges are all healthy and have vitamins.


am i the only person who loathes her?what is so good about her?she wins awards..she's stuck up as hell but pretends to be humble...trying to distance herself from what made her..beat out gwen stefani who actually has enough talent to write her music..i think her and celine dion need to be bombed on an island together...

no u r not the only one, nothing is so good about her, name the island..LOL


My cousin has been with her daughters father for 13 years their daughter is 13(which he barely takes care of,just recently she started getting child support from him)when their daughter was 2 she found out he had another family with 3 other children,shocker!If that wasn't enough he had a baby with her sister in 2004. he still comes around her,I told her to change the locks and tell him to go to hell...but she wont....what should she do?your opinion.

Stay out of it because apparently if she's been putting up with it for this long then she accepts what's going on. Sometimes we have to let people live and learn on their own for them to understand what's going on.


Where would you two go together and where would you tell him/her your special information?

if i could say anything to my dream girl it would be how lucky i am to have found someone as special as her and i would take to a romantic dinner and my fav. spot...


I'd like to be able to greet a Polish co-worker.

To pronounce Dzien dobry: Dz sounds like a "j" or soft "g" and y like an "i".  The r's are rolled, similar to Spanish.  So it sounds a little bit like, "Gin doe-bri" (roll the r).  The "doe" in dobry is the stressed syllable, so is said "gin DOE-bri."  You can really impress your coworker and add on, Jak się masz? (pronounced "yak shio mash" (for się blend the i and o together) and means, how are you?  The most common answer is dobrze ("dobje" with the je pronounced like that in French). Good luck!


Will there be a another Star Trek movie or show

Perhaps.  But not for a while if this article is to be believed:\n\nNo Launch for 'Star Trek 11'\n\nBy WENN| Tuesday, February 28, 2006\n\nHOLLYWOOD - Plans for an 11th Star Trek film have fallen flat with creators of the sci-fi series and films keen to take a long break from the project.\nDespite plans to develop a new Star Trek movie, featuring the stars of all the TV show spin-offs, there is no new film in the works, according to Web site TrekWeb.com.\n\nA source close to Star Trek creator Rick Berman tells internet site Moviehole.net, "The best way to achieve this is to take it away for a few years and then bring it back and do it right.\n\n"The franchise needs a totally new creative team, some time off, and a cool new approach."


i need scriptures and anyother info. please help me. i need all the help i can get this subject means alot to me and i want to have it done by beging of april.

The Bible does not necessarily support alcohol, but it does not condemn it either.  There are numerous examples of people drinking alcohol and it is not a sin.  Jesus himself turned water into wine.  Alcohol is only a sin if you are glutonous with it, meaning that you drink too much of it for too much of the time..outside of that it is not a problem.

Our sun spins at 2 km/sec at the equator while some "normal" stars show rotation speeds that exceed 350 km/sec at their equator. Measuring the rotation speed of our sun is no problem at all. Galileo watched sunspots move across the surface and observedthat the sun takes about a month to complete one rotation. However, obtaining the rotation speed of the a star is something different. Its part of the physics of light. How (precisely) is this done?

its done by counting how long it takes for light from the planet takes reach here. usually between a period of dark and light. same as the sun

For security you want at least 2 of the 10 to be present when the room is opened. To be sure you put multiple locks on the door and distribute keys to the members so no one member can open the room, but 2 members can. Each lock has a different key  but you can make several copies of the same key to distribute to the members. What is the fewest number of locks and keys you will need? Exlpain how you got your answer

The above answers are correct, assuming that one of the people with the second key would be available to open the second lock.  However, If it was not known if any 1 person would be available to open the lock, it would be nice for ANY two to be able to open the door.  \n\nIn this case, you would need 10 locks and 90 keys. Each person would get one key for each of 9 of the locks, excluding 1 (different) key / lock per person. Therefore, a single person could open 9 of the locks, but it would take any one of the other 9 people to open the last lock, ensuring that your conditions are always met.\n\nIn summary -\n10 locks\n9 keys per lock, total of 90 keys.

Key Facts About Avian Influenza (Bird Flu) and Avian Influenza A (H5N1) Virus\nE-mail this page\nPrinter-friendly version\nWhat You Should Know About Avian Flu\nKey Facts\nInfections in Humans\nQuestions & Answers\nCurrent Situation\nThis fact sheet provides general information about avian influenza (bird flu) and information about one type of bird flu, called avian influenza A (H5N1), that has caused infections in birds in Asia and Europe and in humans in Asia. Also see Questions and Answers on the CDC website and Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) on the World Health Organization (WHO) website.\n\nAvian Influenza (Bird Flu)\nAvian influenza in birds\nAvian influenza is an infection caused by avian (bird) influenza (flu) viruses. These influenza viruses occur naturally among birds. Wild birds worldwide carry the viruses in their intestines, but usually do not get sick from them. However, avian influenza is very contagious among birds and can make some domesticated birds, including chickens, ducks, and turkeys, very sick and kill them.\n\nInfected birds shed influenza virus in their saliva, nasal secretions, and feces. Susceptible birds become infected when they have contact with contaminated secretions or excretions or with surfaces that are contaminated with secretions or excretions from infected birds. Domesticated birds may become infected with avian influenza virus through direct contact with infected waterfowl or other infected poultry, or through contact with surfaces (such as dirt or cages) or materials (such as water or feed) that have been contaminated with the virus.\n\nInfection with avian influenza viruses in domestic poultry causes two main forms of disease that are distinguished by low and high extremes of virulence. The “low pathogenic” form may go undetected and usually causes only mild symptoms (such as ruffled feathers and a drop in egg production). However, the highly pathogenic form spreads more rapidly through flocks of poultry. This form may cause disease that affects multiple internal organs and has a mortality rate that can reach 90-100% often within 48 hours.\n\nHuman infection with avian influenza viruses\nThere are many different subtypes of type A influenza viruses. These subtypes differ because of changes in certain proteins on the surface of the influenza A virus (hemagglutinin [HA] and neuraminidase [NA] proteins). There are 16 known HA subtypes and 9 known NA subtypes of influenza A viruses. Many different combinations of HA and NA proteins are possible. Each combination represents a different subtype. All known subtypes of influenza A viruses can be found in birds.\n\nUsually, “avian influenza virus” refers to influenza A viruses found chiefly in birds, but infections with these viruses can occur in humans. The risk from avian influenza is generally low to most people, because the viruses do not usually infect humans. However, confirmed cases of human infection from several subtypes of avian influenza infection have been reported since 1997. Most cases of avian influenza infection in humans have resulted from contact with infected poultry (e.g., domesticated chicken, ducks, and turkeys) or surfaces contaminated with secretion/excretions from infected birds. The spread of avian influenza viruses from one ill person to another has been reported very rarely, and transmission has not been observed to continue beyond one person.\n\n“Human influenza virus” usually refers to those subtypes that spread widely among humans. There are only three known A subtypes of influenza viruses (H1N1, H1N2, and H3N2) currently circulating among humans. It is likely that some genetic parts of current human influenza A viruses came from birds originally. Influenza A viruses are constantly changing, and they might adapt over time to infect and spread among humans.\n\nDuring an outbreak of avian influenza among poultry, there is a possible risk to people who have contact with infected birds or surfaces that

Renting would give you the most flexibility. Your cash would also be available for investment, emergencies, etc.\n\nIf you rent you don't have worry about upkeep on your home and maybe no yard work. \n\nThe down side, less control over who your neighbors might be. Probably less privacy.


I am thinking of changing birth control from the DEPO shot to an IUD. What kind of side effects has anybody had with the IUD? What's good about it. What's bad? I've looked on websites about it, but would like to hear personal experiences.

From my experience, I would NOT recommend and IUD.  It caused me so many problems.  I had severe cramping and spotting all the time.  It got to be unbearable and I visited my gynecologist about it several times within 6 months.  Every time he said it would get better and it didnt. I was basically miserable the whole time I had it. So I ended up finding a new gyn.  He couldnt believe that my previous gyn. didnt remove it!  He was so mad that he called him to ask him why.  He said it pretty much had my uterus in a ball.  It was like I was having labor contractions.  He removed it and it was IMMEDIATE relief.  I have problems to this day (6 years later) that I believe were caused by the IUD but there is no definite way of knowing.  So, long story short...if I were you DO NOT GET AN IUD!!

Parra gave them the ball then the game i'm not tipping them again

Yeah i tipped them at my tipping comp. Thought they were a sure thing with the cowboys running into the game with a few injuries. It looked good until they let that try in just before half-time then had no dummy half just after. That was the turning point in the match.


im married with kids and started talking to someone about 8 months ago and last night we actually got intimate . i had to stop cause it felt terrible and was about to cry. how can i get him and this out of my head. even though it was terrible and i love my husband i cant help thinking about it and him..

sorry to hear you let it get that far, i'm sure you are too. normally, i would say talk to your mate. but in this instance i would have to say you need to figure out in your head and heart what you really want and get you priorities worked out. your children are the ones who would really suffer for your indiscretions. i'm sure that is not what you want. but if your husband finds out, i don't think he'll be very understanding or forgiving. i wouldn't. but if you wan to save your marriage, then i would focus entirely on my husband and my marriage and making him happy. kiss butt, in other words. secretly, of course. one day, if you feel your marriage is strong enough, then you can tell him. the only thing that is going to help is your conscience. honestly, you may learn a bigger lesson by having to carry this secret and not burden your husband with what you did. sorry.

Winter Wonder-Wedding Theme\n\nSnow glistening in the sun like tiny diamonds. Warm and \ncozy flames blazing in the fireplace. Warm cider \nscented air. If these images evoke feelings in you, \nthen you realize that winter can be a truly magical \ntime, and a Winter Themed Wedding may be the perfect \nchoice for you. \nThough it's certainly not true everywhere, the most \ncommon association with wintertime is snow and the colors\nsilver/platinum, white, and aqua/blue.\nThe Bride may opt for faux fur \nlined gowns complete with muffs in place of a bouquet. \nBridesmaids can wear holiday dresses featuring snowflake \nor star motifs. \nWinter theme is one of the simplest to \ndecorate for. Pew bows can be as simple as white ribbon \nwith an snowflake ornament hanging from them.\nAfter the ceremony is over, it's time for the reception. \nWhite and blue tablecloths would be perfect for a winter theme wedding. Have the snow come to your reception by using snowflake confetti in iridiscent , silver, blue or mixed.\nFavors like snowflake floating candles, bottle stopper\nor an unique silver favor will add the touch of glitter.\nI hope that these ideas give \nyou inspiration to create your perfect Winter Wonder Wedding!


I need to know what must be done to be accepted to good colleges(universities).

Studying and getting good grades in high school certainly help. Excellent SAT and ACT test scores, also. Check the web sites of colleges you are interested in and see what their test score requirements are. It also helps to be a 'well rounded' student. That means get involved in various activities in and out of school - sports, band, clubs, volunteer work - the more, the better.

It seems that my jeans get tight after I wash them!! any ideas on how to keep them from getting tight!!!  And no I am not gaining any weight!!

Don't put them in the dryer. That's what makes them snug up as the heat makes the fibers on cloth shrink. Hang to dry. If you must put them in the dyer, dry on the lowest heat and remove when they are still damp.


I would. Actually I have before. I recieved $1000.00 extra once and I gave it back.

I would give it back as much as I'd like to keep it.  Reason one is to keep myself from getting caught and getting into trouble and as much of a humanitarian as I'd like to think I'm NOT, everyone makes mistakes and I wouldn't want the teller to lose his/her job over it...unless they were nasty to me then it's a free-for-all.

What punishment has to be given to Bush for his Hate propogation, for his mass murders, for his burtal politics, for his being a puppet, for his killing of millions of innocent civilians every day, every hour, every second, for every movement his body make in 24 hours of his day... i cant think of any torture suitable for him... not even Abu-Guraib prison, not even Gitmo torture cells... not even any other hidden torture chamber is suitable for himself to get tortured... pls suggest something new ... which is unimaginable... which must excel in inflicting pains to that of any barbarian... which must be 1000 times more inhuman then what even Albert Fish can imagine...

He should be impeached!!!  Removed from office and sent to Gitmo.  In the afterlife he should have 100 virgins that all look like Laura Bush.

I am doing a math project.  I had to conduct a survey of 20 people, asking of their favorite soda.  1 said pepsi, 3 said coke, 3 said dr. pepper, 7 diet, and 6 sprite.  How do I find standard devition?

I am pondering this question a bit. I might have a better answer for you, but here is a start:\n- - - - - - - - - - - -  - \n\nYour data is not exactly amenable to standard quantitative analysis. You can't really form an average, for example. \n\nYou can find the mode. The most common answer is, diet. So the mode of your data is "diet". \n\nThe data categories, as they stand, are not represented by ordinal numbers. So it is a bit hard to even describe the distribution, let alone the dispersion of the distribution. What you could do, is say that 35% preferred diet, and 65% did not. Then you could try to estimate the error bounds on these figures, given some assumptions. Or do a robust estimate using a jackknife or bootstrap.\n\n- - - - - -  - - \n\nHere is another idea. You might want to know the average number of people that are in a given category. That is, you might want to know how many people like a given type of soda. You have 5 categories, so the average is \n\n(20)/5=4\n\nThere are an average of 4 people in each category.\n\nNow you can find the standard deviation.\n\nFirst find an estimate of the variance V using the standard formula:\n\nV=(1/4)*[(1-4)^2 + (3-4)^2 +(3-4)^2 +(7-4)^2 +(6-4)^2 ]\nV=(1/4)*[9 + 1 + 1 + 9 +4 ]\nV=(1/4)*[24]\nV=6\n\nThen take the square root\n\nS=sqrt(V)= sqrt(6)\nS=sqrt(6) = 2.44948974\n\nThe average soft drink is liked by 4 people, but there is a standard deviation of about 2.4.\n\nSo one can say a soft drink is liked by 4 += 2.4 people (if we set the error bounds to be 1 standard deviation, but some people set it at 2).\n\nYou could even convert this to percentages. Then you could say that a soft drink is liked by 20% of the people, +- 12%.\n\nThe standard deviation assumes that the distribution is normal, that is a bell-shaped curve (aka Gaussian). However, it probably is not. A robust estimate of the dispersion of the dispersion can be formed just resampling methods, like the bootstrap or the jackknife. I have placed a link to these if you are interested, but I think it might be too advanced for your needs.\n\nAnother thing to do is to look at the median, and the median average deviation, or the median average deviation away from the median. A reference discusses these and other measures of dispersion if you are interested.\n\nI still feel that one might be able to do more with this. I will think some more and if I have any good ideas I will post them. I am not a statistician, so it is likely that one of them might have a much better suggestion right away.

It refers to parlimentary procedure.  It is a way of organizing meetings in large groups so that they don't get out of hand.  Someone moving to vote, means that they are suggesting that the group vote on the issue, and the person seconding the motion, means that they agree with the first person.

Ok.. just a quick question... this is for my human physiology class and noone can figure out the answer- and our prof will no longer help us with it. \n\nWhy is vessel radius a more physiologically relevant factor in controlling blood flow than is vessel length?  Describe the physiological mechanism by which blood vessel length can be changed rapidly to alter blood flow.

The answer is that blood vessel length cannot be changed rapidly. The diameter of blood vessels changes as the vessels constrict or dilate, and that has to do with smooth muscle contractions. That is controlled by the autonomic nervous system and happens very rapidly. When someone blushes, the small vessels in their face are dilating, for example.\n\nBlood vessel length changes through a process called angiogenesis. In the adult, it happens only in rare cases - wound healing, tumor formation, or in the female reproductive system. It's not a fast process, and it has little to nothing to do with regulating blood flow. Changing the length of blood vessels means making new blood vessels, and this doesn't happen to regulate circulation.


I was given a ticked by a cop who said that i was doing 55mph in a 40mph zone.we were driving in opposit directions on a 2-way

If the radar machine calculates the speed of the cop car and the speed of your approaching car then yes it will know your speed.  So it wont even matter if the cops are doing 95 they will still ticket u.


A road bike, specifically, and from California to Boston.

best thing to do is call ups, fedex or dhl. they will tell you the best way. may have to take it apart tho.


what should I do? it is really strange! he says that he loves me , but I think that he loves my body and sex with me! what should I do? thanks

Age has nothing to do with it. He appreciates your beauty and likes sleeping with you... oh the horror! The real question is does he enjoy your company and do you talk about other things? Do you have fun doing other things?


i want to join an affiliate program that offers Hosted Galleries but cant get the link to work.


I think you can be both! You can be sound while having a valid point; by the same token, to be sound, there has to be at least some validity to it...


I love my girlfriend very much.  I was scared to tell her the truth about smoking in fear that she will not be with me.  I was stupid with that.  Now she thinks i will lie about everything, which is by far not the case.  So now she has trust issues with me.  I want to know how can I resolve this and regain her trust in me.

Trust has to be earned back.  Believe me, it's not easy when someone you love loses trust in you.  She was hurt that you kept a secret, and I'm sure it hurt you to hurt her.  Just be careful in all you do, be good to her.  If it's the real deal, she'll learn to forgive and all will be well again.


How is associate degree different form a bachelor or master's degree.

It's a two-year degree that is basically worthless.


I AM A DENTIST FROM INDIA. I WANT TO CHANGE MY CAREER AS I CANT WORK AS A DENTIST IN UK. WHAT ARE THE BEST CAREER OPTIONS IN HEALTH CARE SECTOR? DO YOU KNOW ANY CAREERS IN PHARMACUITICAL COMPANIES?\nHOW CAN I FIND SOME OTHER JOB TILL I QUALIFY? I AM ON SPOUSE VISA.\nWHAT ARE THE OTHER NONSKILL WELL PAID JOBS LIKE RETAIL JOBS IN UK?

If you want a skilled job, the best way would be to go back to university - I'm currently doing an Access to Higher Education course which would be suitable for someone like yourself. It teaches skills such as Communications, Maths and Computing as well as 3 specialist subjects in a wide range of areas. This is the best way for a mature student to get to university as it will help you gain the skills and confidence to study at a UK university. I was working in the retail sector before i started the course, and even working my way up - i only managed a salary of about £14,000


Do you actually obey your parent's choice? Any regrets?

They pretty much did when I started, but I had changed to what I wanted by the time I graduated.


Our military for what i see has done nothing wrong. They are just doing what they are told to do. And are procting our freedom. Is that so wrong.

I saw this sticker on the back of a pickup truck, "WAR SUCKS, but FREEDOM is worth it!"\n\nSUPPORT OUR SOLDIERS!   (You can't sincerely support our soldiers, if you don't sincerely support their cause.  Think about it.)\n\nDid we already forget about 9/11?  Where would we be if our troops weren't protecting our freedoms.\n\nBlame the military?  Blame the president?  What is so wrong that we need someone to blame?  Blame them for what?
