i have started Desogyn and I am worried about weight gain. Has anyone gained weight on BC pills and can it be controlled, or is it inevitable? Thanks

I'm sorry but it's true. Weight gain is pretty much inevitable. I took it for about six months and gained ten pounds. I have a history of extremely high metabolism and have always been very thin, so I know it was the birth control. To be honest, though, which is worse: gaining weight or getting pregnant?


In our thermodynamics lecture we defined a reversible process as:\n\n1) A process during which every intermediate state deviates only infinitesimally from equilibrium.\n\nOR,\n\n2) A process that, when followed by the one in opposite direction, leaves no change in enviroment.\n\nNow we see, that from 1) follows that every part of the process is rev. too. Does that follow from 2) as well? If so, why?  If not, that apparently implies 1) and 2) not describing the same notion. Have we got to modify 2), adding "...for every part of which..."\nWhat definition do you find most accurate? Do we need to start from entropy (We made use of reversibility to define it). Perhaps from a mikroskopic definition of it?

Since entropy has a rather simple (statistical) definition, I would start with that and then define a reversible process as one which does not change the entropy (of an isolated system).\n\nBut if starting with definition 2, yes it would be best to make it clear that it applies to any pair of intermediate states even though it does follow logically (because the only way it's possible to recover the initial state with no net change in the environment is when the initial and final states have the same entropy. Since entropy is nondecreasing, the entire process must be isoentropic).\n\nThe relation between definitions (1) and (2) is this: If a system is arbitrarily close to equilibrium at all points in a process (definition 1) it takes only arbitrarily tiny nudges to cause it to move in any direction and that is the sense in which it's reversible by definition (2). That is, it takes an arbitrarily small external manipulation to move it in either direction - just as a static mechanical system can be moved in either direction along a path of constant potential energy with no resistance.\n\nGenerally an irreversible process occurs when a system is allowed to move spontaneously in a direction that it "wants" to move (in a direction of increasing entropy). Simple example: allowing heat to flow directly from a hot object to a colder object in contact with it.


how are the dodgers goin to win today? will they win by alot? ;) ;)

We have learned a great deal about recovering from narcotic addiction and have found several methods that work well.  This is information drug treatment programs would not want out since it would cause them to lose a large number of patients.  Would it be better to start with a blog or a website?  We eventually hope to make this into an alternative business that would help people get of methadone clinics.  Any advice would be greatly appreciated as there is a dire need for this information.  Thank you.

Website.  Share what you have learned to help people in need.  You cant do any better than that!


i want to study to become a criminal profiler. my biggest problem is that i'm not a very detail oriented person. is this something that a person can change, or is it like being a little bit pregnant, you either are, or you aren't?


I mean seriously, he's in a suit coat, jeans shirt every week but this week he's sporting the 5 oclock shadow\nget over yourself crusty!\nalthough i could be alone with this opinion

He's full of himself. He figures why bother shaving if he can go outside and probably get 500 girls to sleep with him if he wanted.\nI think he's dorky and a dumbass.


see its like there's this guy i like n he aslo likes me but everyone says he's doin time pass with me but still i like taht guy....'

whaz ur final destination? \ndo u expect tht this love will turn out to be a marriage?\nthere are many points which u need to consider..like...ur economy status, society, family conditions and last but not the least how is the guy like?\nin times, we think wht we are thinking and analysing is right and everyone seems to be ununderstandable for u and u think tht they are wrong. but the fact is u know everything but u didnt accpet the reality.. reanalyse urself.\n\nin times , we want to stick to the fantasy world just for our pleasure. perhaps the pleasure satisyf's us mentally, physically and emotionally. \n\nif u are enough matured to understand a relation , then u would have never asked this question. so do analyse the terms of the relation and the ppl around u and ur boyfriend and ofcoursed urself.


rant and rave like a stark raving lunatic or should i spew profanaties and threaten to whip his azz?

Why do you say he's no good?  Did he just make a bad call?  or was it just a call that went against your team.  Act like an adult and don't be stupid.  You have to realize that no matter what you "think" you see in terms of him "missing" a call, you're going to be biased towards your own team.  If he's just a bad umpire, remember he's making bad calls all around, so it's affecting both teams equally.


I am trying to go to pay for school,work full-time , help my parents out, pay for my car and save enough money to move out of my parents home. The bills are never ending .I just want someone to give me 5,000 to help pay for everything.

Me too. I am a single mother of 4 and struggling so if you find someone let me know too.


Earlier this evening I was working at the Mexican Grill.  It is on campus so it is just a small kitchen area with a grill, steam tables, quesodilla machine, etc.  and very very hot!!!  \n\nThe AC isn't on yet and we were all taking quick water breaks inbetween customers.  Well, I was cutting a quesidilla and suddenly became very light-headed and stumbled.  Part of me wanted to give in and fall, but the other half knew I would probably throw the knife somewhere and hit my head bad.\n\nI told my boss I was going to go sit down. She brought over water and orange juice.  She said I looked really red.  She then sent me outside with a damp towel around my neck and more water.  \n\nI was sitting out by the trash and could not smell a thing.  Soon, I became very cold and started shivering when everyone else was still burning up.\n\nMy boss felt my cheeks and forhead.  She said I must have a fever but the rest of me was clammy.  I was sent home.  \n\nI feel slightly better now.

Definitely heat exhaustion. Heatstroke you would have died it not treated at an hospital. Heat exhaustion is when your body is taxed to it maximum but you are still able to sweat (bodys way of regulating heat) and help keep you cool. In a Heatstroke your body shuts down it's cooling mechanism and you must be treated immediately. Your temp rises so fast in a heatsroke that within minutes your body literally cooks itself if not treated. Your skin would be very hot and dry with a heatstroke.


Sabres won!=)\n\nTell me more about the team and the game,please!;)\n\n\nAre you celebrating?\n\nHow?\n\n\n\n\nThank you very much!\n\nThe best Sunday to you all!:)

I am absolutely ecstatic (if a bit hungover this morning), Moon! :) On one glorious sporting day, Liverpool won their 7th FA Cup and my Buffalo Sabres defeated the Ottawa Senators to advance to the Eastern Conference Finals. You cannot top that! Well, aside from when my Sabres beat Carolina (presumably their next opponent) and then defeat the Western Conference champions (likely Anaheim) to win the coveted Stanley Cup! :)\n\nLast night's Sabres-Sens game was a hard-fought affair, each team trading goals until it went into overtime, tied at 2-2. Typical of the Sabres' grit and determination -- to say nothing of their youth, skill and blinding speed -- young Jason Pominville went in on a shorthanded breakaway just 2 and 1/2 minutes into OT and scored a highlight reel goal that set off a celebration in Buffalo which I could feel here, nearly 400 miles south!\n\nAre we celebrating? Erm, did I not mention that I was hungover this morning? ;) Sabres fans all around the country (and the world) are celebrating this upset victory and feeling very excited about our prospects of winning it all. Bring on the Hurricanes (or the Devils) and let's keep this train rolling right along! WOO HOO!!! Thank you, Sabres!!!\n\nLet's Go Buf-fa-lo!!!


250 deer are captured and tagged in Yellowstone Park. 3 months later 80 deer are captured and 16 of them have tags on. How many deer are in Yellow Stone Park?


With what's going today on the Petrol and the US type of cololialism on arab countries, I began to think that even that 911 day was a perfect plan... Just see the US (people, culture and economy) before 911 and After...

You "began" to think? Come on, it's crystal clear... unless Bush is SO DAMN LUCKY to have 9/11 happening as an answer to his prayers in order to wage his war on terror and invade other countries and take the oil and control the middle east!\nPlus, the initial plan was Afghanistan... now we have Iraq, Syria and Iran.


I have been talking to my boyfriend for nearly 2 years now and his too scared to come and see my because of his scared of my dad and somewhat me. He lives about 40mins away and i told him to come and see me at a specific time and he held back from getting on the train coz he was scared mind you i told him to come when my parents were asleep but it still stopped him. Everytime i see couples holding hands and kissing whether it be on tv or in reality i get all emotional and sad wishing it was me. Is there anything that i should say to him to persuade him into coming and seeing me? Help anyone?

heyy--i was in that situation a while back when my boyfriend and i got together. he lived 50 miles away from me, about an hour-ish drive in california. anyways, it took him a while to come around to see me...but i guess what really pushed him was his feelings for me. it sounds to me that you and your boyfriend have not seen each other much the past two years or else you guys would know what to do by now. what i can tell you is that, talk to him in a very serious way...don't brush it off as an unimportant issue. it's important to have physical contact with someone. i've learned in my psychology class that physcial contact, whether it be a kiss or a handhold can help push the relationship forward. tell your guy that he needs to step up to the plate and come see you, even if it means confronting his fears of your father (and oddly enough, YOU?). if he's still a bit apprehensive, i think he needs to do a little bit of growing up because a guy who cannot come see his girlfriend of two years because he's scared of her daddy is not worthy of you. so, do what's in your best interest. talk it out with him; if necessary, give him an ultimatum--either he come see you, or he hits the road. if he toughens up, then maybe it'll work out, but if he's still a little wuss, call it quits and find yourself a REAL man. Good Luck!


Can you grab both your hands behind your back then get them infront of you without letting go of your hands?  How easy is it to do that and how did you do it?

Your arms have to be double jointed to do that. Or you can jump over your hands.


My husband cheatted on me with his ex-wife 6 years ago. His children new what was going on, they are grown men and one of them has a daughter that my husband never visisted with while he had his own place, now they live with his ex-wife and he uses his grand-daughter as en excuse to go over there. Should i worry or let it be?


Does any one know what hippomonstrosesquipidaliaphobia is........... and yes it is a word!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It means, ironically, "a fear of very long words".  Trust me.


Man is naturally polygamous. The divorce rate has gone so high bothering to marry in the West is a waste of time. You marry, then sleep with your secretary and then tell your friend who is sleeping with your wife and then he tells your wife. You file for divorce and suffer a loss of half the estate and pay alimony. You marry again and the cycle repeats itself. After the fourth wife, you get depressed because you have to pay alimony to four wives and none of them wants to sleep with you. You take a gun and blow your brain to pulp.

How about marrying a woman with more than one husband? I could benefit from my brothers, have plenty of time for myself, have plenty of help in caring for my children, but I might have to wait for alone time. \nCheck out the social heirarchy of gorilla packs and chimp tribes. Other primates have this sort of arrangement too, so its definately a part of our social anscestry.


I want to choose a private school for my son (this is in the UK) but there is a school I have considered but it is at the bottom of the ratings (according to The Sunday Times - 2005). Do I ignore what position the school is and still send my child there? \n\nI have also read elsewhere on this site that private school produce snobs, although this comment was made with regards to American schools but is it still true for British schools?  I thought I was sending my child there because the state schools in the area are run down (Haringey in London) with lots of gun crime so private seems the next best alturnative.

You need to physically visit a school during teaching time to gauge it's worth. You will get a feeling as to whether it is right for your child or not, and that does not necessarily follow that it is one of the highest in the league tables. It is purely a personal thing.

I need the exact names of the medications, or were I can find the names.

isoniazid (INH), pyrazinamide, ethambutol, rifampicin are 4 drugs used in the Direct Observed Therapy for Short course. (DOTS)....its a 6 month program where u take all four drugs for the first 2 months nd only 2 (i think INH nd one more out of the other 3 ..not sure which) for the remaining 4 months.


now a day when women are being encouraged to be in almost every fields and have given equal oppertunities like males. do u think most of the times the more deserving male misses some offer coz some other woman colleague came in and took over.

yes in some cases.women do have an edge over men if their bosses are men as men tend to have a soft corner for women.but if their bosses are women then their wont be any chance for the women.


Jozef K. je sanjao:\n\n\nBio je lijep dan i K. je htio prošetati. Ali, ubrzo nakon što je napravio par koraka, već se našao na groblju. Tamo su puteljci bili neprirodno i nepraktično krivudavi, ali on je, postojano se držeći kao da lebdi, jednostavno klizio po jednom od tih puteljaka, kao po vodenoj bujici. Već izdaleka, zapazio je nedavno nabacanu humku, kod koje se poželio zadržati. Ta grobna humka na njega djelovala je gotovo zavodljivo i pomislio je da neće uspjeti dovoljno hitro stići do nje. Ponekad pak nije mogao vidjeti humku, jer su mu je zaklanjali stjegovi, čija su se platna vijorila i velikom silinom sudarala; nisu se mogli vidjeti stjegonoše, ali kao da se tamo nešto naveliko proslavljalo.\n\n\nGUARENTEED BEST ANSWER IF YOU ALSO DO A TRANSLATION :-)))\n(It's not a difficult language to understand.

According to a trivia question on the bottle cap of Carlton Draft beer, it is Venus.......I would have said Mercury, what is your opinion?

Venus is the hottest planet, with the maximum surface temp. of 900 degrees F.\nreason\nthe component of the atmosphere is carbon dioxide, which traps heat in a greenhouse effect far stronger that that of the earth.\n\nmercury has a max temp of 800 in sunlight and -270 on the dark side\n reason. sudden changes of temp is caused by the planets atmosphere is almost nonexistent. it consists only of minute amounts of helium and hydrogen


Is it fair that you may have to do more difficult work or simply more work because of a coworker that is too overweight or for chronic pain that is not work related?\n\nIt is not that I do not sympathize with people that I describe it is that why do we all make the same amount of money when we all do unequal amounts of work?\n\nBTW, I am a nurse that is frustrated over a few co-workers that simply cannot do their jobs anymore because of severe weight gain. And they only gain weight due to lack of exercise and diets that could fill up an entire etheopian villiage.

While I can certainly understand your anger (my sister's a nurse and regularily vents about chronically absent collegues) , I believe that punishing people by reducing their earnings/disability/whatever based on a perceived responsibility for their own health problems strikes me as the first step on a slippery slope. \nWeight gain can be caused by diseases or medication - it isn't always clear cut. A fair share of normal weight people are basically unhealthy couch potatoes, they are just genetically favoured not to put weight on easily. They could just as easily fall prey to "self-induced" diseases brought on by unfitness and inactivity. How about people suffering from sports-related accidents? Scuba- or sky-diving, skiing - should they be punished? How about the jogger that breaks a leg? \nWhere does it stop? A lot of people get sick from side-effects of medication (and get medicated some more for those symptoms) - are they responsible? How about someone working in a highly allergenic environment who is prone to allergies? Their own fault? How about all those older people? Why should young, healthy people pick up their physical slack?\nI am sure you can see where I am heading. While I agree with you that it isn't always fair, many things aren't. At some point in our life we all are relying on other to help us over a hard spot til we get back on our feet. \nI believe this is the price we pay for living in a decent society, not in an absolutely cutthroat one where you are expendable trash when you don't function perfectly any more.


This is to answer a Financial Accounting question. I am trying to understand how they are interrelated.

Income statements contains information about your revenue and your expenses. When you reduce your revenue with your expenses, you'll get profit or loss. \n\nBalance sheets contains information about your assets, liabilities and capital. Your profits or loss value from the income statement will be incorporated in your capital calculation and make your capital either increasing (profit) or decreasing (loss).\n\nRetained earnings statement is generally used for accounting in corporations, where the owner is more than one. Because the owner is more than one, your income statement value has to be divided for each owner at the last month of your accounting period. To make it not confused with your current income statement which will keep changing at time to time, your income statement value at the last month of the period is transferred to the retained earnings statement.\n\nThe statement of cash flows will calculate the difference between your cash in and cash out. The difference will be considered as the amount of your available cash right now (either in your bank or in your pocket). It will be included in your balance sheets calculation as assets.


How commodity trading works[If possible please give me answer specific to india]? How do i trade online?\nand whether only margin trading is possible in commodities or cash trading is also possible online?

You're insane.  Buy commodities as a diversifier and inflation hedge only, and as part of a larger diversifed portfolio.  They should make up no more than 5-10% of your portfolio, depending on your personal risk tolerance.  They are VERY volatile, so keep that in mind.  The best way to do it is through a diversifed commodities fund, like the DWS Scudder Commodity Securities Fund.\n\nHope this helps!\n--J.

ribs fracture with no contact but rather me just swinging at the ball hard. go figure/

Do you have osteoporosis?  Some people loose calcium and bone mass density.  They get what is called a "pathological fracture".  This can happen just with strenuous exercise.  I'd ask your doctor if a bone density test is right for you.  Medications can be given to replace calcium AND prevent calcium loss, if this is the problem.  (Can affect both women AND men)


i have saved a little over 10k and now i want to so something with it.  what would you suggest. i don't want to blow it. i want to make something out of it. \nany suggestions?

First, I would make sure you have at least 3 months salary saved up in the bank or in a money market fund for an emergency fund. Financial disasters like getting layed off or sick happen to all of us.\n\nSecond, I would pay off all high interest debt. Pay off everything you can except the house mortgage. Paying off debt is one of the best investments you can make. You will have more money in the future because you won't have credit card bills to pay.\n\nThird, if you have money left, start investing in stocks, bonds, and money market funds. You want to buy a diversified portfolio of stocks, as individual stocks are too risky. For most folks this means buying mutual funds. I like Vanguard.com, other people like Fidelity, TIAA-CREF, and DFA. Buy no-load, low cost funds. If you are like most people you will invest part of your money conservatively, in money market funds and bond funds, and part aggressively in stock funds. Vanguard.com has an on-line questionnaire which will give you an idea how aggressive you want to be. \n\nInvesting in a mutual fund IRA for retirement may give you an income tax break. Talk to your tax adviser. You may also be able to invest in a stock mutual fund via a 401K plan at work.\nTaking advice off someone you met over the Internet and know nothing about is risky. Read these websites for further information.


my friend does not want to share me with my other friends.he has bin like that 4 a long time.if i tell him to not do that he will go to his mom and i will get in trouble.wut do i do?

i just got off my period and i started seeing blood in my stool { poop } what could it be? What should i do? please help me!!!!

Could be just a burst blood vessel, as a result of 'pushing' too hard - if it stops in 2/3 days - you're fine.\nIf it still shows after a week - see your doctor immediately, this could be a sign of bowel cancer.


i mean if everything in life is not enogh there must be something else, right.\nhappinest is reaching for something, once you have it, its over

why don't you try giving someone that has less than you something that would make them happy maybe you could find happiness in giving instead of receiving all the time


Please only answer if you do track. I am wondering... what is your best time for the 800 and for the mile? I am a sprinter (yes I know I should not be running the mile lol), and my best times are 2:31 and 5:41. I am a 15 year old female. What age are you, and gender? Also... how do I break 2:30 for the 800?

Im a guy 16, i run a 2:05 for the 800, and a 4:49 for the mile. to break 2:31 u probably wana run a lil fast for ur 1st lap, that will make up for the time you lose for being tired. For instant to run a 2:05 i ran a 60 second 1st lap, then a 65 second last lap. for a 2:30, try maybe a 1:12 or a 72 for ur 1st lap, then 77 second lap or 1:17. and that is 2:29 :-) good luck! (and kick like its your last race! \n;-)


... and you're attracted to a father (divorced) of one of the kids, you think he likes you, you have a suspition he's going to ask you out... should you accept? Keep in mind that I know his ex, the kid just happens to be my boss' grandchild, and I only have two weeks left on this job.

Definitely wait until the job is finished... if he asks you out, be honest and say you are attracted to him and explain it is best that wait until the job is over.\n\nEnjoy!:)


I'm a high school junior but with school and work, and many more things i'm feeling a little stressed. I really dont wanna take the easy way out but I keep thinking about it.

PLease whatever you do DO NOT DROP OUT OF SCHOOL!!!! From a woman who is struggling herself, i envy you that you are in high school and still have a chance to make it. I understand that thngs are tough right now, but it will pay off. You have to sacrifice a few things to make it in this world. Dropping out of school is not an option and you will regret it for the rest of your life. You will not get these years back. I was sitting on the bus and watched the high school kids going to school and i almost wanted to cry. I cannot go back in time and fix what I did. If i knew then what I know now, I would have been in the front of the class, front and center, on time and did extra work on my projects. Then maybe i could have gone to Princeton or something. if you do this, you will be having to play catch up all of your life. Your situation is just hard now, NOW. it will not be the same tomorrow. Would you really want to ruin your life because of a small obstacle now. Please think about this. I had to do some regrettable things in my life and dropping out was one of them. I played catch up and i am 23 and still struggling while i have a friend who is 25 and is already working on his Masters degree at LIU. I envy him so much and it makes me look at my life. I have an Associates degree and am planning on "trying" to get my Bachelors one day, hopefully soon, but all of the struggles i had to overcome are unimaginable. The shame hurts more. So please, while you are still young and have a chance to be somebody, stay in school and do your best with what you have. If not for your family, for ME or anyone, but do it for yourself. I would hope that you do become successful and live a life free of worries. Make the right decision and stay in school.


I installed the free 30 day trial for DVD Region Free software and I would like to keep using the trial.  Is it possible to unistall the software and then reinstall it and have the program work for another 30 days?

Yes it is possible BUT you have to do more then uninstall it. Somewhere in your registry or on the harddrive the program install a date that it matches up against. You have to remove that information. That information is NOT removed by a simle unistall. Sometimes all you have to do is change the date on your PC.

I would like to apply to another university course because I have decided I do not like the current course I am doing. Is there still time to apply through UCAS or will I have to apply through clearing in july?

Is the option to add route b choice still open? If not clearing in july would probably be the best bet. check with UCAS who will be able to tell you for sure. Good luck with the course you choose.


I don't see my boyfriend very often 'cos he lives 3 hours away. And when I do see him, we have sex a few times and cuddle for a lil while and its all great, then he just wants to go on his computer and check emails and sort his ebay account :S Is that normal?

No,it's not you.I have the same problem with my bf.He thinks that the computer is more important then spending time with you.Tell him politely to shut the computer off for a while.Also explain to him that you hardly get to see him and while you are visiting him to spend time with you.Let him know that it's rude to ingore you like that.Ask him to check his emails and his ebay account another time when you're not there.I really don't think that this behavior is normal.Or tell him that you're not going to be with him if he keeps this up.Ask him if he thinks that you're just there for sex?Maybe you should leave him and look for someone who's closer to you.He should pay attention to you,not to his computer.That stuff can wait.Ask yourself this:Do you want to continue to be with him or to find someone else?I think that what he's doing is rude.Good luck.


ok guys wat do u really like about a girl honestly

I like a girl if she doesn't play games.  Too many girls play flirty games and pretend to be hard-to-get.  These girls will mask their true feelings from you for a long time, maybe forever, because they don't want to let you too deep into their life.\n\nI like girls that are is honest and open about their feelings.  They will not be afraid to say embarrassing things about herself.  And best of all, they will not play games.  I like girls like that.  A girl who plays games is no fun to be with.


Where did the Lucifer mythology start, it is not very clear in the bible and not found in the Hebrew bible, I only found the name "Lucifer" once and only in ONE translation. Is Lucifer the same "Prince of Darkness" found in Zoroastrianism (Iranian Pagan Religion)? \n\nOr is he borrowed from Seth the Egyptian God, who is pretty evil and predates the Christian mythology?

Lucifer (light bringer) is almost a direct ripoff of the Titan Prometheus from Greco-Roman mythology. Prometheus created humans in an idle moment, and really pissed off the gods by giving them fire (knowledge) and got "cast down" (chained to a rock with an eagle nibbling his liver) for his naughtiness. Only major difference is they removed the creation myth tie in.\n\nRemind you of any stories involving a garden and an apple?\n\nWake up folks, even their book states that knowledge is the worst enemy christans ever had. Right in the beginning no less...


There is this girl I asked out last friday and she said yes. Right now though, we hang out a lot but I not sure if we are going out or not. Should I start by holding her hand or kissing her or should I talk to her about where we are at?

try to hold her hand first, that is the least intimate way of telling someone you like them, then if she pulls away ask her about it


gas prices are getting way too high, and so far no one is doing anything to get them lowered. no protests or anything like that. so what will people start to do once oil companies start to rise the price over $4 a gallon?

This person will celebrate. Cars are the number one killer in America. The smog, the noise, the area they take up in our cities, not to mention war, human right abuses across the board by companies like Shell, oil spills, parking lots(ugly,smelly) and even the isolation of being in cars verses just about any other form or transportation. Kids are not safe just going to school anymore. I cant ride my bike two miles before I am almost killed. I can't take a walk without stopping every so many feet to wait till I can "walk". \nI may drive one because I have to for work, but that's just it. Its not really a choice anymore, and this American looks badly at that. I hope it goes up to 20 bucks a gallon. \nI am looking for solutions to transition away from cars, to free mass transit, bikes, walking, a 30 mile an hour electric lane, etc etc. For now I drive with Bio-diesel. I can't live with the blood of innocent children on my hands. Heck make it 100 dollars a gallon. \nIts our taxes that keep it cheap anyway.


What is in a male ball sack, other than the testicles... also a link?

Blood. Testicles. Fluid. Semen. Largely, that covers it if you ask me. I am not a doctor, but there is not exactly a whole lot of room for any big objects such as TVs or Stereos.


Ok this has been one of the funniest argumentative questions i have asked, but for the specifics, Im talking an african male lion, and a large crocodile (can be found all over the world).  African lion: they have found man eating lions as large as 688 lbs.  Crocs are recorded to be as long as 20ft. (With the tail and all)  IF we have to pick a battle ground for them, how bout a small, dirt floored arena, about 75ft x 75ft.  No water for the croc to hide in either, no trees for the lion to climb up in.  Lol tell me what you think would win.

In open area-nowhere to retreat....the lion...once the croc takes a snap at the lions paw it would be curtains for the croc.The lions overall strength & speed would overwhelm my short legged,belly crawling friend...


Do girls like booobby F***? U know what i want to ask.


They did not plaed the game that brasil just  to play do you think was the opponets technical deffense or someone made this happend?

Brazil had obviously fixed the game. They wanted to "share the wealth," while they in turn received a nice gift. They could have beat France if they wanted to.


She usually needs to be a BACHELOR first, i.e. B.A.\nI wish life wasn't so sexist. (I am a man.)


Look...no one knows if they will or will not be in God's hell fire eternal super torture chamber...so we have the technology....lets ram thosands of nuke deep inside the earth from many angles...china...usa....france...australia....and POWWWWW....TAKE OUT SATAN!

Many of us would like to live our live and find out what our purpose is, so it would be rather selfish to KABOOM the the earth. It is the internal Satan we must fight. I believe that the core of the earth is fire for the sake of keeping the oceans stable. I do not believe that he is down there,.. only in a portion of our heart. We have to find solutions to extinguish the devil there.


My house looks nice warm and friendly when furnished... Will it be an eye sore?

You should always try and show a potential buyer around your home when it's lived in and furnished.  An empty house isn't particularly attractive or inviting.\n\nIt's not always practical to do this - particularly when you're moving out before the house has sold.  Try to keep some furnishings in the property and wherever possible carpets and drapes are a must.\n\nA lot will depend on the buyer of course.  An investor or speculator would expect the house to be empty - they want to see that it's available for them to purchase in the shortest possible time.\n\nIf you do leave furnishings in the house go for fairly neutral things and a clean, tidy and uncluttered look.\n\nWhen selling make sure there's loads of light, turn lights on, raise blinds, draw drapes right back and use mirrors, they all give the illusion of extra space as does having lots of floor visible - move frnishings to the sides of rooms.\n\nUseful tip - tidy up the drive/path/garden/yard, plant some flowers etc and make the first impression a good one.  Also, make the last impression a good one by saving the best feature of the house until last (if showing the house yourself).


I need to know where to find info on King David. OTHER THAN WKIPDIA! I already got info there. Please help.


He looks so familiar, but I just can't place him.


strategy for the confederate and union to win the war? What were there strategys??

I just finished with the unit of the civil war, the Union had very unskilled soldiers but a lot of them, but the confederates had less soldiers with more skill, the confederates had the motherland aka England supply them but not enough supplies were able to come to them due to the fact that the Union had blocked most of the trade routes in the rivers, that wasone completed accomplishment.


well i have had this problem for like almost 3 months now...ive been to the doctor 3 times....first time they say its a yeast infection, second time they tell me its cytollic vaginosis which is still like a yeast infection....i just went to the doctor down here and they gave me an antibiotic called sulfameth/trimethorpim well this is the second day i have taken it and i still hurt i cant sleep its like this burning sensation after i pee and it last for a while and it feels like i constantly got to pee....it hurts so bad any advice on what i should do...

I have to wonder if you may have a bladder infection. If it is a yeast infection which can be painful. It burns really bad. Some Yeast infection treatments come with a topical cream that helps. Also you should call the second Doctor and let his office know that you aren't feeling any better. I hope the best for you and you get relief soon. Drink plenty water and Cranberry juice.


you can sdd me in msn loolivia@hotmail.com talk more teach me how to do...

You have to use the Windows disk to install Chinese as a language as well. You have to call out the language bar from some place (I forgot where) and use hanyu or pinyin to do it.


And how do the mission controllers know when they've reached their target?

The fact that there's pretty much nothing random in orbital mechanics is very helpful along with the fact that we know pretty much everything about what affect all the objects in the solar system have on the spacecraft, that way they can just run the simulations using computers to high precision and take account of pretty much everything.\n\nIt is of course common to use mid-course correction burns to correct for any errors when the craft was first sent off into space.


I just watched 60 minutes and poor people in New York are putting their kids in a lottery to maybe, get their kids an education.\nWhat the **** is the matter with you people?

They are putting their kids in the lottery to hopefully get their kids a decent education.\n\nShall we tell the rest of the story or will that not fit your biased bullsh*t agenda.\n\nWhat the hell, you had your tenure so now its mine - except mine will be the truth.\n\nBush has spent more on education that any other President in history - Reference the Congressional record if you doubt.\n\nWhat schools all over the nation have done is put themselves in a system which does not allow for accountability, prohibits terminations of its worst teacher via the teachers union and refuses to all competition with schools in the private sector.\n\nLets see - "competition among drug companies is good for getting the best for your money" is what democrats say in the health care argument - why doesn't that argument work in education.  \n\n2 reasons - Kids don't vote and Dims love scaring the sh*t out of old people with threats of losing there medicare.


can you realise that this is smth that we will never find out as long as we live.isnt it kind of scary?

If you believe that the Lord Jesus Christ is your Savior, then you go to heaven.  If you don't, then you go to hell.\n\nIt's just that simple, and sad for those that don't believe.


Sexuality is not a choice, so why do you lot get on at us for liking the same sex? It's not what nature intended, no, but God made us for a reason, surely? Do you agree?

Actually, ALL species of the animal kingdom engage in homosexual behavior...so yeah it IS nature intended. Christians have a problem with anything they can't control. They're also brainwashed and can't think for themselves.


1 time i was trying to get this phlem out of my throat and i couged hard several times and then suddenly my nuts hurted. kinda like cramps lol. what is it and is it bad?

I need to find a software or a solution in order to allow windows XP to connect automaticaly to ADSL every time I boot the system.... What do I need to do?\n\nI`d really appreciate a solution guys!!!\nThank you!!

What do you mean?  How did you get connected to the internet in the first place anyways....??\n\nBuy a router (point of access) (wireless or not wireless).  Connect the ADSL modem to the router.  The router will give you an IP address since most routers come with a DHCP server.  Configure your NIC card to obtain an IP automatically. \n\nthat's it!


What do you say about this verse?  Please serious answers only, don't be mean.\n\n"In the beginning was the Word,and the Word was with God and the Word was God."  John 1:1\n\nFor those that don't understand:  The Word is Jesus.

We cannot understand the nature of God he did not design our minds to be able to do so.His ways are not our ways.He surpasses all understanding.Yes I believe what you have said but I can not understand.


When you sneeze.. instead of giving you a kleenex .. they say BLESS YOU??\nWhat does it mean.. or is sneezing a blessing??\n\nthanks for taking time to answer.

in the old days, when you sneezed " your soul came out" people were afraid that the devil would grab your soul, and take you to hell. So they said bless you which basically tells God to bless you by giving you your soul back\n\n\nP.S. please give me the points beacuse i swear that i'm not lying


Its the season of result declaration of almost all the board exams ---Class 10 and 12. ICSE, CBSE, and all other state boards. How much do you expect???

well.....i dont no bcoz the whole pattern of checking copies has been changed from this year .....so cant predict.......


my wife and i have been together for almost 15 yrs now,i don't have a problem telling her i love her in front of any one,so why does she not say it to me if she's around other ppl or her friends.ex:if i call her at work and when were done talking i tell her i love her but all she says is i know,then tells me at home that her friends were there and she was to shy to say it in front of them.is this normal?she isn't shy about alot of other things in front of ppl,or friends.

I dont think that sounds normal no! I am very shy person ex. they had to cut my underwear off to give birth to my daughter. lol (i can see the funny side of it now)\n\nMy first relationship was physically, emotionally and mentally abusive. I still have bad memories of that! It still affects me even till today! ex if someone walks towards me and moves suddenly I cringe!\n\nI have another partner now who is wonderful. Hes been my best friend for years. I am not use to being treated like a queen. He showers me with gifts and tells me a hundred times a day he loves me. At first I was embarassed and didnt know what to answer him. He perservered! Now I am proud and have no problem in telling him I love him in front of anyone! My friends wish they had him for a partner because hes such a beautiful person. They actually envy me! lol\n\nThis woman is your wife! Did she have trouble saying yes I love you (I do) in the wedding ceremony?? I think not. Obviously because yous are married!\n\nI seriously think she has no excuse for this other than maybe some of her so called friends are male and dont know about you ;) or that her feelings for you might not be as genuine and she tells you at home to shut you up. Sorry this might not be something you want to hear!\n\nI think your best bet is to ask her straight out and ask her to promise you to be totally honest with you!\n\nGood Luck with everything!


I am trying to figure out all the variables that make an object move in space, but what makes a planet spin?

The effect known as the Gyrous of Rotation causes planets to spin. When the planet is born and begins to condense out of its accretion disc it contracts and this puts a turning moment about the planets common centre, similar to a ballet dancer pulling in their arms in order to spin faster. JULES


Those icons in the url box next to the url? Like when you go to apple.com and you see the apple next to the url, but I don't see them?! I just see the Internet Explorer Icon thingee, can anyone tell me how to see them?

IE6 doesn't use favicons in the Address bar or in the title bar, but they are used in the Favorites menu if you have anything listed there.\n\nFavicons are temporary images stored somewhere in cache or your temporary Internet files.  Sometimes the icons don't show if you clear your files and cookies.\n\nI found a program called FavOrg that will scan all links in your Favorites folder and save the icons so that they will show up when you hit Favorites.


It tells me my computer isnt genuine at startup? and that someone could be counterfeiting my info. How do I solve this problem? Freeprod keeps coming up also and putting stuff on my add/remove programs>?

I really thought I would enjoy teaching.  I have a Bachelor's in Art Education and a Master's in Elementary Education (with a minor in computer ed.).  Turns out I don't enjoy teaching at all.  I really would love a great career that utilizes my education but I just don't know where to begin to look.  Any ideas??

I also have a Master's in Education.  I don't want to discourage you, but I will start with the bad news.  Most people in this country believe it is very, very easy to teach and as a result those of us who have a teaching background are pretty unemployable in most fields even though we all know we have great skills.  I went into temping for a while because I found it nearly impossible to find anyone willing to take a chance on me.  I learned from Human Resources professionals who would be honest with me that they would rather take a chance on someone without a degree than a teacher because teachers can't think for themselves and cannot take direction.  This is a bizarre stereotype and I have no idea where it comes from, but it made me HAVE to temp so that employers could see how very capable I was.\n\nSome people DO make the leap from teaching into other professions.  Usually this leap is done over time and is hard to do while unemployed.  There are many fields that love the kinds of skills teachers bring, but first you have to analyze what it is you want to do.\n\nThis is what I finally did: After temping and being offered many full-time jobs that were not right for me, I took some advice from my aunt who is a teacher that she had from her principal: Go back to where you last felt comfortable, and move forward from there.  This was what led me to law school, and I am finally, for the first time, really feeling like I'm in the right place.  I was actually a really good teacher, but I was never completely happy when I taught, and now I finally know I'm in the place that's right for my skills AND interests.  I don't necessarily recommend this for you, but I do recommend going back to what you last felt was "right" and use that to guide you in your move forward.  As it turns out, for me, where it was last completely right was HIGH SCHOOL, where I had considered becoming an attorney, but just didn't for whatever reason.  My teaching experience and degrees were not a waste of time and money (I have to keep reminding myself), but experience.  In my case, I am very different from most of my classmates in law school because I have lived another life and have consciously chosen this path.  I also have found a field in which my teaching background is NOT considered a detriment at all (lawyers, weirdly, "get" teachers...they use the same skills and aren't overly critical of a past in teaching).\n\nSo, don't get discouraged.  If you're not sure what to do, I highly recommend temping.  You may fall into the right job, but even if you don't, you will gain a LOT from being out in the business world.  I happened to get one assignment in particular that was on Sarbanes-Oxley in the insurance field (of all things), and I liked it quite a bit, and considered staying.  I never had such exposure to the business world in my classroom, and temping is a lot like subbing: you get the experience and can try things out until you find something that works.  While you temp, you might be able to find for yourself where you last felt comfortable and move forward.  At the same time, you won't be "just a former teacher" or "just a person with an Education degree," but you'll be someone with experience and a working knowledge of business who happens to also have a B.A. and an M.A.\n\nGood luck.  This was a painful experience for me (teaching is tied up with your entire life...you can't even watch a movie without thinking of how you could possibly use it in your classroom), and it was hard to find my path since it is a "vocation" career tied up with your whole identity.  This will not be an easy switch, but it will be worthwhile.


I bought my place from family who moved to flordia last year feb. they have been storing theier personal possesion in my garage. they were supposed to be here last  july to get them and have not, they keep saying may now its sept.

Send a certified letter to demand that they pick it up by a certain date, or you'll have it removed, or sold.  The law will protect you as long as you send the warning in writing and certified.  If you end up in court, you'll be safe.  Call your local police station and ask about the laws in your state regarding this, just to be safe.  Some states vary.


what is the duties of an administrative officer in an institution.

That person handles certain details.  For example they may be responsible for personnel policies, issuing manual about employment, finding a health care coverage system.  They probably have to make sure all the bills are paid, like the water bill, etc.  They have to make sure you can meet the payroll.  They have to make sure there are evacuation instructions for fire in each room.  Everything it takes to run the institution.  They are not responsible for strategic goals like philosophically where the institution is supposed to be going.  More the nuts-and-bolts stuff to keep the place runnning.  Like air conditioners and roads and toilet paper in the bathrooms.  Complying with record-keeping rules.  Paying taxes.  Getting the place painted or new carpet or tile.  Deciding the priorities on how to spend money.  Making sure the phone system works, does it need upgrading and what new phone system to get...providing internet access, deciding the backbone.  Providing janitorial services and getting the trash pickeed up.  Oh yes, and all the systems of badges etc.  I feel it is much broader than human resources.  Depends on how big the institution is.  I mean this is kind of random but this type of stuff.


there are some web sites that i go to,and if i just type the name of it then .com i get page can not be displayed...but then if i type www. first then i go right to the site....however on other sites i can just type the name of the website and go right to it

It depends on the DNS name of the site you are connecting to. Some sites alias www.site.com and site.com... so either address would work. However, if the site only registers www.site.com, then site.com won't work.\n\nSo, it all depends on what the owner of the site registered as their DNS name.\n\nCheers :)

dharma means MORAL CODE OF CONDUCT, DUTY, MORAL BINDINGS, Etc;. But i need a single world containing all the meanings.

In Buddhism, it is slightly different meaning. \n\n"Dharma" means teaching or "protection". By practicing Buddha's teachings we protect our self from suffering and problems. All the problems we experience during daily life originate in ignorance, and the method for eliminating ignorance is to practice Dharma.


G.W. was there when we needed him there.  Now, we need a new change of scenery to backdrop a whole lotta issues.  That's just my take, but our next president will be a democrat and I do believe it's time.  What do you think?

What makes you think democrats will be any better?  It is dog eat dog in washington and everyone is out for kickbacks and power.  I don't think a change in party really helps anybody but the lobbists who have invested so much money in the candidate of their choice. \n\nWe have to look at each person who runs individually, regardless of their party and evaluate them based on their character and their ideas.


NAME SOME !!IM MAINLY LOOKING FOR ONES THAT I PERSONALLY LOVE SO JUST name WHAT YOU THINK ARE ULTIMATE BEST MOVIES AND NUMBER THEM !!! AND I LIKE ALL TYPES OF MOVIES SO DONT WORRY, JUST SAY WHAT you THINK ARE THE EBST MOVIES YOU HAVE EVER SEEN AND PLEASE NUMBER !!AND SAYING WHY AS, WELL WOULD BE HELPFUL.\nexample:\n1.titanic-so sad(the so sad part is optional but if you say why for all or some of the mvoies you list youll probually get BEst answer but just yah. bye!\n~deandra~

1) Pride and prejudice--\nI love it so much b/c I had never really liked period peaces before b/c of war and this one deviated from it and was mainly a love theme and I love the vocabulary of it--I find myself pretending to talk like they did. :)  I love Mr.Darcy--not that cute at first but he grows on you and you can't help but love his acting.  I am in love with him. \nHe and the other actors were totally great--it was so real.  Perfect!! I wish it would have lasted longer.\n\n2)Where the Heart Is---One of my best friends told me to watch this movie and it was so good--fascinatingly sweet. My friend died shortly after that and it makes me think of him.\n\n3) *****A time to Kill****--It was just the best movie ever!!!!\nIt had a great plot and was never boring.\nIt had a lot of my favorite actors all in one movie!!--\nMatthew McConaughey, Sandra Bullock, Ashley Judd, Samuel L. Jackson, Donald Sutherland and yes--even Kiefer Sutherland!!\nIt doesn't get any better that that!!!\nIt is a must see movie  :)\n\n4)Halloween 1 and 2--both were great--I love scary movies too.  I watch this every year, plus any of the other ones that come on.  I really like Jamie Lee Curtis\n\n5) Clueless--the characters were great and I loved the ironies and the fun.\n\n6) Pretty woman--Julia Roberts is my favorite actress and I loved the movie\n\n7)  My Best friend's wedding--I loved the plot--too bad she didn't end up snatching her guy at the end.\n\n8) Lost Boys--I loved looking at those Vampires and corey Haim--exciting, romantic, scary and pleasing to the eyes..:)\n\n9) Dirty Dancing!!  I love Patrick Swayze--I would say I have watched this movie more than any other over and over and over again.  That is another one that should have lasted longer.\n\n10) The faculty--so absurd and is a great movie when you like to think about school and the strange people that attend it.  \n\n11) Princess Bride--adventurous and romantic\n\n12) Kiss the Girls-- I love Ashley Judd.

I was young and I remember having such a crush on him.\n\n15)  About last Night--Demi Moore and Rob Lowe--need I ssay more?  \n\n16)  Crash--Fabulous.  It showed such a twist of how society is and the prejudices that we have and how people are understood and have a change of heart.  \n\n17) Texas Chainsaw Massacre--so scary.  I saw this with my future husband.\n\n18)  Children of the corn--I thought it was so different and yet too scary--watched it when I was little.\n\n19)  Dangerous Minds.--I just liked it b/c it was different and showed me a side of what school may be like in the inner cities--Wonderful movie\n\n20) Pet Cemetary--so strange and who could've ever thought of that except for Stephen King.\nPsycho is also one of those type of movies too--never will forget that one!!! Whew!\n\nThere are really too many for me to mention..I love movies and I am sure that I have left some of my favorites out.  \nI just kept going, but this really made me think.\nI do not think I have ever spent this much time answering any question on here!! :)\n\nOh well, ... what are your favorites?  :)\nHave fun!

It's posible that before the big bang, dark matter existed and the big bang was a result of a collition between two or more objects causing an explosive chain reaction.

It's known that dark matter existed before 'something' caused the explosion of light.\n\nSome scientist think that is was a build up of ions/neutrons or some such, which caused the 'bang'.\n\nMany also believe that, because the universe is expanding at a faster rate than previously imagined, some day the whole thing may return to a 'dark' state as galaxies travel beyond the reach of observation.\n\n(By that time, our Galaxy will have been swallowed by the black hole which is keeping it 'captured'.)


For the last two days, I've been having diarrhea in the morning. It lasts only until about 25 minutes after I wake up, but it still makes my stomach uncomfortable. For the rest of the day, I'm perfectly fine. What can I do to make my stomach relax in the morning and for the diarrhea to stop? It's important to make it stop becase in about 4 days I have to take an important exam in the morning.

i am not a believer and have read the book for wat it is an excellent story why do some people get so wound up about the book and why is there a petition against it? surely people are intelligent enough to realise that it is just a book and all the hype is doing is increasing book sales???

Christians have trouble grasping the concept that their religion is full of flaws, (Christmas the birth of jesus? Jesus is white? etc.) What Da Vinci Code did was open a can of worms to the masses, sorta a catalyst for many people to go forth with a rediscovering of what their religion was. From this the church has lost many followers, in retaliation they're doing what they do best declaring blasphemy of what they don't understand or can't control. \nWhats interesting is that we may be finnaly witnessing the downfall of one of the largest religions in the world. I'm not talking about the whole religion is going to end, but its certainly loosing more members than it can replace. With the death of Pope John Paul it'll happen even faster, he was able to bring this religion into the 21'st century but I doubt this'll last.\nWhat you'll find though is that people are not smart, people are incredibly stupid and gullible. I dunno, if your seeking answers to your religion your not going to find it in Dan Brown's book.


I would appreciate Simon's last name and the town name especially.  \n-Anni ^^ PLUS THIS IS URGENT!!!!!!

Here is some info:\n\nRusty Lemon and his schoolmates all have one thing in common - the Mall. The shops, the food, the fashions, their friends, and sometimes the entertainment - these were the things that had always drawn them there. But now there's something else in the Mall - something strange. Bob Kerr's collection of unusual tales are sure to intrigue you, they may make you laugh, and even scare you! One thing's for certain, you're never going to think the same way about your Mall again.

What is love? Love is a curse, a blessing, a distraction, a must, a want, a need. Love is so many things that can’t be explained by a word, a distraction I welcome with arms open. I need the love of the one who is on my mine 24 hours a day, but the love of by life is forbidden to me why fate must tempt me to the limit I ask why. I know I could be the best thing that ever happens to you I know you know to. Been though a lot during my 15 years of life but the best things of life include you so I thank god for this cursed blessing if you can call it that. You reopen by eyes and allowed the light to be seen though the darkness. I was lost when apart from you but now that I found you I feel complete like a full moon renewed over and over again. Sometime when I see your smile it turn my world upside down and inside out. A smile so radiant that it could out shine the sun it self, sometime I think I could have any girl I want but I chose you. I think what make you special and I stand up and confess that god him self made you flawless in everyway. If only I could tell if love or nothing more than just a feeling, my heart tells me love my mind say distraction. I still can’t get these two questions off my mind. If you read this and wonder what question number one is WHAT IS LOVE?  Number two is WHAT DO YOU FEEL ABOUT ME? That one can be answer as soon as you read this.

Did you mention in there you were 15?  Wow, pretty good.


I am very impressed with the high family values and kindness I have seen among Mormons.  I'm just wondering why they would have this in abundance compared to other Christian groups.  What is their secret?\n\nPLEASE no insults.

I am so glad that you have noticed these wonderful values among members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints that you know.  It is true that family values and the importance of family is stressed very highly in our church.  \n\nIn fact, we teach that the family is the basic unit of society, instituted by God, and that the church exists to build and strengthen families.  In that sense, the "secret" is simply that the members of the church are putting into practice the teachings of Jesus Christ in their behavior towards the people in closest proximity (family members).  \n\nThe church encourages its members to hold once weekly "Family Home Evenings", where family members come together to teach each other, spend time together, and grow closer as a family.  It's practices such as these that help families to be stronger.  If you would like to find about more about how to institute these principles in your own family, feel free to check out the church's website.  There are many materials that can show you how and give you ideas.


Our company has been a flag bearer for many years till a competitor appears with similar products.  WE have exeerted all our efforts in doing promos, ads and PR works. Now we need to measure the effectiviness of these activities and the impact they made on our customers.  Could anyone give me some hint on how to go about it?

I'd look at measuring your activity, so for PR it would be col inches of covereage. For email, no of opens, no of click thru's, number of people asking for a meeting/buying. etc. Then you can work out ROI (return on investment) which divides the cost to do the marketing comms by these results.\n\nIts tempting to focus on only the high ROI but in reality you need to do most of then (you cant make someone buy until they show interest - e.g. so if your marketing campaign was to sell to them before influencing then to be ready to buy it wouldnt work!).\n\nMostly your competitor had probably played catch-up to get to your level, now you need to overcome that by doing something different - dunno your industry but organise a party, get your best clients to tell your prospects how great you are (youd better be!) - get case studies, show and tell what youve done. Or last case get a marketing consultant or marketing agency to help you.\nrobert


Was Rove the mastermind in the Valarie Plame case?\nIf he is indicted, will he continue being "Bush's Brain? until he goes to trial?

this man has no shame, he's acted as though he was above the law for years now, and now he's getting his just dues.  He must have lied under oath and for that he committed an act of treason to out Valerie Plame.  If Bush does not cut him off, then he too should be jailed as a conspirator and an obstructor of justice.  Cheney's done too.

If someone were to write a story about a superhero that was scientifically reasonable given, say, 20 years of advances in materials science, biophysics, etc-would that be interesting?  Would detailed descriptions (as part of the story and plot) of the "superpowers" and how they came about, that were fairly detailed and scientifically plausible, be interesting to those of you who like superhero/villian literature?  Assume a scientist actually wrote it using best-guess extrapolation.

Almost every super hero has a mythology regarding their creation. Take some of the new hit movie's for example, Spider-Man was bitten by a genetically cloned spider at a school sponsored field trip.(not exactly true to the comic) The mutants in the X-men were the product of a sudden leap in evolution, as explained by Patrick Stewart. Batman obtains many of his gadgets from Wayne-Tech Enterprises, and that has produced 3 movies from one film maker, and now a new box office hit, Batman Begins (far superior to the first series) as well as a TV series, a few different cartoon series, and then, 30 years of comic books. I know all this mythology of super-hero's, and I couldn't tell you what happened in any of these. The most important detail of the hero is exactly the question of how they obtained their power, and almost every first look at a hero is the plot line of why they are super-powered. Without selling this storyline, (and to be absolutly clear, scientific origins account for most of them) the hero will probably fail to capture the public eye.


i want to write a song. But i think it would be cool to wrie a lyrics based on someone elses idea. Like if you had a bad break up what happened or something like that or if you have any suggestions on what i wtie my song about. So plz leave any suggestions, storyies that you wouldn't mind sharing or anything. Cuz a lot of artists write songs based on other peoples life experiences so i thought maybe i'll try it. \n\nPLEASE DON"T lEAVE NE THING RUDE. \n\nTHANK YOU ALL!

I think it would be more meaningful if you wrote a song about the experiences of someone close to you instead of things that happened, or allegedly happened, to random people on the internet.  I think it's cool that you are into writing songs, though.  Good luck with that!


Why is Jim Cartwright important in history?

Jim Cartwright was born June 27, 1958 and grew up in Farnworth, Lancashire. He trained as an actor at the Central School of Speech and Drama. However it is as a playwright that he has really made his mark. He is probably best known for the film Little Voice.\n\nbut Jim Cartwright you are asking about maybe is not this one...\n\nhowever... there is a television show, Bonanza, that chronicled the weekly adventures of the Cartwright family, the younger son is called Little Joe, but not Jim. But the Cartwright family and the characters are fictional.


He is very cute or hot and he is 14 and what if your 13 I think that would be a good age don't you think?

you are not even CLOSE to being old enough to date.


President Kennedy was assassinated.  John Lennon was murdered.  I never saw it written that Rev. King was assassinated, he too was murdered.  Sadat was assassinated and Versace was murdered?  What factors determine which word is appropriate?

from what I can see, important public figures, killed for political reasons, are assassinated whereas murder refers to the rest of us.  Take a look at the follwoing defintions, they have some good distinctions... hope that helped\n\n\n\nDefinitions of assassination on the Web:\n\n    * character assassination: an attack intended to ruin someone's reputation\n    * murder of a public figure by surprise attack\n      wordnet.princeton.edu/perl/webwn\n\n    * In its most common use, assassination has come to mean the killing of an important person. An assassin — one who carries out the assassination — is usually motivated by ideological or political reasons. Other motivations may be money in the case of a hitman; opposition to a person's beliefs or belief systems in the case of a fanatic; orders from a government that are often carried about by a subversive agent such as a spy; or loyalty to a competing leader or group.\n      en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assassination\n\n    * [country or state]--[city]\n      www.loc.gov/rr/print/tgm1/app-b.html\n\n    * of the Coptic prime minister Butrus Ghali by a young Muslim nationalist. One of its repercussions was a new Coptic mistrust of the Muslim Egyptian nationalists. A Coptic Congress met in Asyut in 1911 to voice specifically Coptic political demands, which were rejected by a rival Muslim Congress convened in Heliopolis that year. 6\n      www.bartleby.com/67/1374.html\n\n    * The killing of a political leader or other public figure.\n      regentsprep.org/Regents/global/vocab/topic_alpha.cfm\n\n    * Two Presidents of the United States have been assassinated,—Abraham Lincoln by J Wilkes Booth, and James A. Garfield by Guiteau. The latter was called a crank or half crazy. There has never been any real conspiracy for assassination in this country, on a large scale.

He's my great great great great great great grandfather. I can't find a lot of info on him. He was in the kentucky derby as a jockey and got in first place during the very first kentucky derby.

Here is the profile for your grandfather as posted here\nhttp://www.kentuckyderby.com/2006/derby_history/african_americans_in_the_derby/jockeys.html#olewis\n\n Let me say it is an honor to be the first to answer your question. Oliver Lewis helped to develop the system used to collect the past performance information for documenting the record for all races a horse has run in his lifetime. He founded my hobby and many owe him partial credit for our success and enjoyment of thoroughbred horses and racing. Fantastic question and I wish you the best of luck in your search.\n\n I suggest that you use the information from the Kentucky Derby website to research for any living relatives of the trainer, owner or breeder of Aristides. They may be able to provide you with historical information you can use to learn more about your truly great grandfather. \n\nIf you would like I can post your question to my personal network of horseracing associates and see if someone smarter than I am can provide you with some better suggestions. I have in mind one gentleman in particular who is now 84 years old and been handicapping since the 1920's. It' entirely possible he may have a story relevant to your gr. grandfather. I expect he would revell in the telling of it if indeed he did.\n\nI wish you much the best in your search.\n\nOliver Lewis:\n\nOliver Lewis rode Aristides to a two-length upset victory in the inaugural running of the Derby in 1875. The time, 2:37 3/4, established an American record for the 1 1/2 miles. Lewis was instructed to send Aristides to the lead to ensure a fast pace and set up the race for stablemate Chesapeake. He sent Aristides to the front and as the field rounded the far turn and headed for home, Chesapeake was far behind. The owner of the two horses, H. Price McGrath, told Lewis "Go on!" when he looked over at McGrath for a sign. Later that year he guided Aristides to a second in the Belmont. He won three races during Churchill's inaugural meet to take the honor as leading rider. Lewis never rode in another Kentucky Derby but was on hand for the 33rd running in 1907. Detailed information is not available, but it was reported that he later worked for a bookmaker (legal at the time) an provided detailed information on how the horses ran. This method of race result notes was later developed into charts which served as a forerunner to the Daily Racing Form and Equibase systems.


I have to decied if these blood values are acidosis or alkalosis and metabolic or respiratory. I also need to know whether the condition is being compensated.\n\n1.pH 7.63, Pco2 19 mm Hg, HCO3- 19.5 mEq/L I think this one is respiratory alkalosis and is partially compensated by the kidneys\n\n2.pH 7.22, Pco2 30 mm Hg, HCO3- 12.0 mEq/L I think this one is metabolic acidosis and is partially compensated as well by the lungs blowing off CO2.   \n\nThanks

I think both your answers are right. \n\nAccording to my books, normal values are pH = 7.4, PCO2 = 40mm Hg, and HCO3 = 24 mM.\n\nRespiratory acidosis: pH < 7.4, CO2 too high\nMetabolic acidosis: pH < 7.4, HCO3 too low\n\nRespiratory alkalosis: pH > 7.4, CO2 too low\nMetabolic alkalosis: pH > 7.4, HCO3 too high\n\nSo the way I figure out these problems is first to look at the pH. Even if compensated, it will never get back to normal so it should tell you right away if it's acidosis vs alkalosis. \n\nThen look at both the PCO2 and HCO3. Are they both above normal, below normal, or is one above and the other below? If one is above and the other below, then it means that the state is uncompensated and it should be easy to figure out the cause.\n\nIf they are both either below or above normal, then you have to look at either CO2 or HCO3 more closely. I usually like to concentrate on HCO3, but it really doesn't matter which one you want to look at. \n\nSo looking at your problem 1 for example, pH - 7.63 tells me its alkalosis. Both CO2 and HCO3 levels are lower than normal, so I know it's being compensated for. From what I know about alkalosis, it's either caused by low C02 or high HCO3. Since HCO3 is low in this case yet the blood pH is basic, I know it can't be the cause of the alkalosis. CO2 however looks to fit into the model, so HCO3 must be compensating.\n\nAnyway, hope this makes sense, kinda hard to explain completely in a post.


what is so imortant of the easter bunny?

The true meaning of Easter has nothing to do with Jesus. Some Christians decided that's when they were going to have one of their festivals because they thought that stealing Pagan dates, etc. would encourage more Pagans to convert to Christianity. Easter, or Eostre, is a Pagan godess of fertility. That's what the eggs and bunnies are all about.

I'm constantly seeing people randomly tossing all manner of objects directly out of their car windows or just dropping them on the street in full view of a trash can.\n\nHave we become this lazy of a society? Do people really want to live in their own filth?

apparently she loves you!  not many people are left in this world that are willing to put aside their own emotions to spare anothers.  let her help you or just let her be there.  anymore love is hard to find, you have found someone who apparently will stick behind you through thick and thin don't let that go, you may regret it down the road.  she is on your side shes not against you, lean on her don't push her away

~The lesson here is, proof your foolish question before you post it.


For approximately 150-200,000 years, humans essentially lived like very smart animals, then fairly suddenly, about 10,000 years ago, we all seemed to have discovered agriculture and "civilization"..a few thousand years later we were all writing.  I have never seen a decent, logical explanation for how all the populations of the Earth took this "great leap forward" at the same time-After 150-200,000 years, suddenly within about 1% of that time frame, there are cities everywhere from the Middle East, to China, to North and South America?  Writing starting independently everywhere?  For me, this is the most mysterious event in all of history-any ideas?

Hey! Your "other" question is already cluttered up with some high voltage discussion and nice arguements so, I thought I should post my answer here as it is more peaceful and calm here. I was wondering whether I should have posted my answer there? \n\nNow, I'll try to make sense while talking about a topic that I know little about. \n\n1- It all started with the arrival of the first bipedal- Australopithecus anamensis. (some might argue that it was Ardipithecus ramidus). Ok, the point is, as our ancestors started to learn to walk on two feet, they had some challenges to face as bipedalism reduced their speed considerably putting them at a clear disadvantage against their predators.\nNow, as this problem was faced by all the hominids all over the world at the same time, it led to some parallel thoughts (and thus inventions and discoveries) all over the world e.g. building homes, making weapons and tools etc. (The stone tools were first made by the handy man i.e. Homo habilis and not Australopithecus).\nThis tool technology was spread by Homo ergaster as they  migrated outside Africa.\n\n2- Then, in the course of evolution, the early humans started to have a complex cultural lives and they grew emotionally, e.g. the Neanderthals (who aren't our direct ancestors) started to bury the dead.\n\n3- As the homo species like homo erectus, homo neanderthalis, homo heidelbergenesis and ancient homo sapiens (Cro Magnon) made further advances in creativity and productivity, they all felt a natural need to pen down their thoughts. This led to the cave painitngs and carvings. All of those paintings can be interpreted as diary entries as you may see that the paintings and carvings simply depict what the early men "did" i.e. hunting, using tools etc.\nSo, I guess it is understandable why the "pictorial-scripts" developed contemporarily to each other.\n\n4- But the question still remains: Why were the origin of world's ancient scripts so contemporary to each other? I guess, as man found the pictorial depiction of thoughts and emotions more and more unconvenient and tedious due to the diverseness of thoughts and situations to be depicted, it started taking help of symbols. Perhaps, this behaviour was so "human-like" that every sub-species of the homo sapiens followed this pattern of 'depicting thoughts symbolically' universally.\n\n5- Another reason of this might be migration. Before the ancient civilizations like Inka, Mesopotamia, Egyptian etc. even came into existence, the early hominids led a nomadic life. According to the "Out of Africa Hypothesis", all the modern humans "Homo Sapiens" originated from Africa. Later, they migrated to Africa, Asia and Europe and formed groups.\nSo, I guess due to their similar ancestral origins, the human beings had a common problem solving approach and hence, attempted the problem of inconvenience of pictorial scripts in a nearly identical manner.\n\nThe scientific difference in the scripts can explain that they were devised on completely different grounds but, the approach was similar due to common origins and creative grounds.


also, is there a site where it tells you who produced what song (preferably hip-hop)

theyyy see me rollinnn they hattiiinnn patrollin tryna catch me ridennn dirtayyyy.. haha dunno but hott song


I can only remember 1 line in the chorus and it is something like, "This is a song, for the lonely, can you hear me to-night?"

It's called, not surprisingly, "Song for the Lonely".


I am begining to get a slight seam on the upper part of my stomach, splitting my ab area in half and getting definition on the out side of where a 6 pack would be making that rounding affect.  Am I close to seeing my abs? Does it sound like I have burned enough fat off my stomach and almost accomplishing my goal of ab definition?  Any help would be appricated.  Thanks

This year I became enlightened upon the amount of politics involved in daily retail work.  It makes me want to vomit.  Where can I learn to play the game and play it better than every one else?

One of the biggest things research suggests on this is to get a mentor who can teach you the ways.\n\nThere are also zillions of books on it.


Is it the war in Iraq that is driving the prices higher? Or is it the fat greedy oil people? And why aren't we the American people making more of a fuss about it? WE control this country not some stupid government offical in D.C. It is Us that has the say, the government is just put there to regulate and manage our laws. And they do as what We want them to do. Not the other way around as it is becoming nowdays.

People, gas prices are going higher because of one thing. DEMAND. I still see giant SUV's in traffic driven by one person. \n\nThe US has 5% of the worlds Population and we use 25% of the worlds resources. We are hogs and the Gas companies are making money from it. Also, the US Gov't taxes 46 cents per gallon thats more than the profit by the BIG OIL Co. They are the ones gouging the consumer.\n\nAnd in Europe they drive minis not Avalanches and Tundras and Armadas and any other vehicle named after the state that it is as big as like TAHOE !


Millions of people in the Former Soviet Union , could have found out much earlier, what happened to their loved ones.\nWhy was this kept secret.  Does anyone know?

Sometimes governments have rules on how long the keep records secret. As for the Red Cross I am not sure why they would have kept all of those records secret for so long.\n\nThere are currently millions of Holocaust documents being help in secret while the countries holding them decide how to release them. It is possible the Red Cross was not wanting to release too much personal information by releasing them too early. \n\nIt is strange they would have held them for so long.
