I was going out with this guy and i was crazy about him and he was my first true love i gave him my virginity. We broke up and its been a 2 months. I have this new guy that i really like and he tells me he loved me and i really care for him but not the same way. I want to, but everytime i'm around him i dont feel like i did when i was with my first. How do i get my feelings back?

Krissy, a first love is special and memorable. Very few people marry their first love, but most remember it fondly. It always hurts when love fails, and often affects how you approach your future relationships. Time, as fireman said, should heal the hurt. Eventually you will fall in love again, and the experience of your first love will enhance your new love. Take it slow... the feelings, the care, the romance, the new beginnings... it will all come back.


I think the question speaks for itself...  When a woman can be the sweetest to a guy and the guy doesn't care and continously treats them like shit?  What's up with that?  There is no need in it!  To the guys that think it, you are truly not God's gift to women!  so keep on dreamin

because women like them better than someone who treats them decent. i guess they see it as weakness. i cant make myself be abusive so i dont get the girl. dont bother sticking up for her either, they somehow get offended by that.


Do you agree with his views or do you think its just propaganda?

Regardless of how he spoke in the film, pictures are 90% of the truth. Republicans will tell you it's bull-poo and never look at the documentary. That is how narrow minded and stupid they are. This is another reason they are in trouble in most branches of the Government. The conservatives really believe that they are un-touchables like Al Capone and the old Mob. I think if America starts executing the traitors they wouldn't be so apt to pull these stunts. George Bush & Dick Cheney could be where American starts.

Im making a forum and need some suggestions of topics and stuff for it! Anyone know anything?

What are your interests? \n\nFor example I had musican, adult, political, philisophical, RPGs, and so on because that was what I was interested in. \n\nWhat are the interests of your intended users? \nFor example I had anime sections, console game sections, a section in Spanish and another in Dutch because that was what people who visited my forums were interested in. They came for other topics initially but some stayed around for those special interest forums. \n\nYou want to target topics that will generate interest. Bring people to your forum, but you also want to steer clear of things like religion which will often start fights. Politics can be very volitile as well. \n\ninvisionfree.net offers some really good free forum hosting. I'd recomend them to anybody. Proboards is very user friendly but also really light on security. That only becomes an issue when you try to ban the inevitable person who seems to only find self worth in trashing others.

I think the questions says it all.  I need to measure for a karate belt.

the belt usually needs to go around your waist twice and two pieces of equal length hang down 6 to 10 inches plus the knot.\n\nSo 2xwaist + 2x8 should give you a good lenght\n\nassuming a waist of 32 inches (mine) that is\n32+32+8+8=80 inches\n\ncheck out some picture of people wearing karate belts to see how they fit ie. how many times they wrap, and roughly how much hangs in front\n\nThis is based on a Jistu belt I assume that karate belts also wrap around twice


university of oregon elite runner that died prematurely in 1975.

This hurricane season is going to be BAD!  The levees won't hold, no matter HOW much money they spend.  I think it's just a matter of time.  What say you?

I agree with you, and I live in New Orleans. The chickens have finally come home to roost. Politicians have pushed their luck too far. Instead of doing the job right, they cut corners in the 1950's-the 1960's when the levees were built in order to fatten their own wallets, and now everyone who lives here is going to suffer for it.There will never be anyone prosecuted for this reprehensible act, because all those responsible are probably all dead by now.

I would like to explore the possibility of getting to really know each other better, (we have kissed and gone a little further) but he doesn't think we're a good match, in what he's looking for in a woman, and won't even give it a try. I think we should at least try. Is there anything I can do to get him more interested in me and want to try a relationship at least?

Probably no.  You just have to show that you have the qualities he's looking for.\n\nAs for sexual - he's a guy.  So yes, he'll go further but don't get too attached because he's not (he's told you that already).  If you keep it as just casual with no strings attrached you'll be fine, but if you expect more I see you getting hurt.


I think i rather be fat, then I could go get plastic surgery with my millions.

i wont conclude your sexual preference as of yet. until you actually act out your fantasy and consistenly repeating the behavior. are they the only one you have fantasy about? can you picture having the same fantasy with famaous celebrities? having same sex encounter is not unusual, some even have incest dreams as well. it's just part of very active brain cells crossing signals thats all.


Invariants cannot be found without comparing the variants. Any variant can be compared to any other variant. The different invariants of a variant are found by comparing it to more than one variant. All invariants of a variant cannot be found by comparing it to a single another variant.\n\n\n\nA characteristic is an invariant. The different characteristics of a variant can be found only by comparing it to different other variants. In any experiment, a variant is varied. Then, the variant is compared to the variants from it to find the characteristics of the variant.\n\nAll characteristics of a variant cannot be found in a single experiment. A variant is varied differently by different experments. So, different experiments on a variant reveal different characteristics.\n\n---------------\nI need to rephrase these paragraph in the context posted in this link: http://wwf.edula.com/content/topics/vandiv2.html

Paragraph 1:\nCharacteristics of a thing cannot be made without relating it to another thing.  Then you can find it's constituent parts by contrasting it with this other thing.\n\nParagraph 2:\nCharacteristic = invariant.  Says same thing virtually as first paragraph.  Added information: variants = varied.  A whole is compared to its parts which create different perspectives to view the whole from.  Like eating an elephant from different sides, the one side blind to the other but of the same.\n\nParagraph 3:  All experiments reveal something different since one can best see what one sees best oneself.  \n\nThis all proves that its very very difficult to see how the varied characteristics of variants and invariants can vary.  And how the makers of aspirin were way ahead of their time.  Geez.


My office internet has blockes so many websites i used to visit.\n\nfor example, i go to www.example.com and through that site, i can surf other sites such as yahoo, etc.  in other words, the sites will not be blocked because i am not directly going to the site i want to go to.

Production vs Entertainment... what you're doing in your office? if there is a proxy server installed into the internet's access is because the policy of the internet usage on the company limit the internet access just for productivity websites.  If you go to another websites using a proxy your IT will discover you and you can get fired.  Be careful, if you want to navigate to any place just wait to be on your home and do it with your computer.


It would be great if you could fill this out. It is for my American History.\n\nWhat war did you fight in?\n\nWho was the President?\n\nWere did you fight?\n\nWhat weapons did you use?\n\nDid you operate any vehicles, if so please say? \n\nWhat was your rank?\n\nHow many people in your squad?\n\nWhat was your personnel view on the war?

Hey kid, how's it going? I'd be glad to help you out.\n\n1. Operation Iraqi Freedom 2 (OIF2)\n2. Pres. George W. Bush\n3. Iraq (Mostly in and around Kirkuk)\n4. M-4 Carbine (rifle), M67 Anti-Personnel Fragmentation Grenade, and the M252 81mm Mortar System.\n5. Yes, we used Humvees. The actual designation for the vehicle is HMMWV which stands for High Mobility Multile Wheeled Vehicle.\n6. While serving in Iraq I held the rank of Corporal(E-4)\n7. I led a 5 man infantry mortar squad.\n8. The short answer is that we were asked to do a job so we did it to the best of our ability. The long answer: We helped alot of people out(Iraqis), and they let us know every day how much they appreciated us being there and how happy they were to be out  from underthe control and tyrany of a dictator like Hussein. I felt good about what we did in Iraq, and no amount of negative press will ever change that. I also feel that if we left Iraq now, before the job was finished, we would be letting the Iraqi people down and also saying that the men and women who given their lives, died in vain. I myself am not prepared to do that.\n\nHope all this helps. Good luck on the report and feel free to ask any others questions.


I think there is some pretty good evidence that dinosaurs are still in existence today. Obviously not in populated places like America, but in remote areas like the Congo and South American jungles... What do you think?

A. Could we have real dinosaurs somewhere?\nAs ttocsewol pointed out, the biggest problem of cryptozoology is that there is not enough space to hide thousands of dinosaurs. If there are fewer, the species is quite vulnerable to extinction.\nOne exception: there is enough space in the ocean. We have just recently discovered some pretty large shark species. However, this means that the dinosaur in question has to be giving birth rather than laying eggs, much like Ichtyosaurus dis. However, marine reptiles of Mesosoic era (Plesiosaurs, Mesozaurs, Ichtyosaurs and so on) are not dinosaurs in strict sense of the word, but are distantly replated to them.\n\nB. Living descendants and relatives of dinosaurs.\nTurtles, crocodiles, lizards and other surviving reptiles are also quite removed relatives of dinosaurs. Birds, however, are direct descendants of theropod dinosaurs.\nBe careful around that chicken.

What kind of gases keep reproducing for so many years, and why does the temperature seem to be staying the same? The sun doesn't seem to be getting any smaller or changing shape.

The sun is in a state of happy equilibrium.\n\nThere are two main forces acting on the sun....gravity and entropy.\n\nThe sun has A LOT of mass.  With all this mass, the sun has a pretty strong gravitational field, so all this mass is pulling on itself and trying to force it to fall toward the center.  In other words, the sun's own weight is trying to collapse it.  The more the sun shrinks and collapses, the more it heats up and the pressure inside increase (as would be expected).\nThe more the sun heats up and the pressure rises, the more it wants to "blow itself apart".  After a certain point, the pressure and heat at the core is high enough for nuclear fusion to take place.  Nuclear fusion releases a lot of energy...so much energy, it is capeable of hold the sun up under its own weight.\n\nAt this point in the sun's life, the forces of gravity trying to pull the sun together and the energy released by nuclear fusion acting to hold the sun up and blow it apart of pretty much balanced.  If one force were to get the upperhand, the other force would work to balance it out.  If the sun were to shrink a little, the rate of nuclear fusion would increase to compensate.  If nuclear fusion increases, the the sun would expand, cool, and nuclear fusion would slow, allowing gravity to pull it back together.\n\nAs the sun runs out of Hydrogen to fuse, the sun will have to fuse heaveier and heavier elements with increaingly less yeild.  In the end however, our sun will expand to become a Red Giant before blowing off a lot of material and become a white dwarf star.


i started skateboardinging about 2 months ago and im pretty good except on my kick flips i ALMOST have it. it`s just that my front foot always hits the ground before the board and i only land it on my back foot...tipsss on it?

You've got to remember to pull your knees up after you flip the board. Especially the one thats doing the flipping. Otherwise it's going to hit the board, or just go off to the side and to the ground. Jump, and when you do, lift up both legs and stay above the board while it flips, and then, ideally, it will finish it's rotation right under your feet and your feet will do what's called, "catch" the board.\nGood luck


Erik Morales needs a rest. Marco Antonio Barrera is ready to fight now. Both are still dangerous opponents, and if they fought each other it could still go either way.\n\nIf you're referring to legacy, Barrera may be slightly greater. He's had more fights, and he was the guy who retired Naseem Hamed. Both are definitely hall-of-famers, though.\n\nWhat exactly was the question?

It's your age.  I had the same experience when I was your age.  Of course you already know it is unlawful for employers to inquire your age, but there are other ways they can figure this out.  Your resume is the main source.  What I learned was to take all dates out of my education.  Simply stating the institutions is enough.  Second, take out all job history that doesn't pertain to the occupation you are applying for.  Thirdly, take out employment dates.  Simply list duration of time worked at each job.  Input a sentence before work history that explains the list is from most recent back.  Good Luck.

This will make me look like a bad person, but she loves me more than anything. She looks up to me so highly says I am the best thing that has ever happened to her. what should i do.

It depends on how you look at things. \nSome people feel like they should tell their mate what they did wrong just to get it out in the open and work thru it, but in actuality, it's really to clear their own conscience. Some people feel like if you really love her, you would tell her, others feel like if you really lover her, you won't tell her.\nI feel like if you really love her this wouldn't have happened in the first place.\nI don't think you are giving enough info on your feelings for your girl for me to really comment on what you should do.


like the sun it is so bright that you sneezing until you ;look back down ?why is that

Whenever I look at the sun (not often, be assured) I don't seem to feel any sudden sneezes coming on. Perhaps your sinuses are shaped as to when you tilt your head back, you trigger a sneeze? Maybe it's temporary, because of a cold or bad sinuses or allergies.\n\nYou should try looking into the sun (not for very long) in the morning or evening when you don't have to tilt your head and see what happens.

i have been looking for an albanian course for a year now. desprate to learn as i am married to a lovely guy from kosovo and a want to communicate with his family more often...\n\nHELP!!!!!!


i want some place that is active( like sporty) just in general were do u go and wnd what do u do there.

a cafe, the mall, put-put any where i guess that would be fun.


say thers this guy who called you heartless, and then like apologized like 100 times, and was almost in tears when you woulnd't forgive him, and you had to tell him to go to bed and not think about it to keep from crying yourself. and then for WEEKS after, you couldn't stop thinking about him. Are you in love? Are you sorry for being so mean? Are you thinking 'what should I care? It didn't and won't EVER happen to me?' please answer.

When a person is angry, they tend to say things that they really don't mean. I think you are a nice person who don't like to see anyone one cry. I feel that you care about this person and he did show how sincere he was with his apology. I would call him to see how he is doing and take it from there.


Don't hold back.  The mind is a terrible thing to waste. Would you just go to lunch? Have a quicky? Photograph. ETC.....

We will get married, have beautiful children and love each other until we can't anymore!!


Seriously... I heard his "current-time" mother is making a movie about him or something of the sort.

I think a movie about John Titor would be great. As for if he is real or not, no-one knows, except for him. I've read a great deal on the story, and have went through all the postings on all the threads he put up, and the story is amazingly consistent. The details are very, well, detailed, and the story fairly convincing. I've also contacted Pamela, his only contact he made while he was here. And while she's reluctant to give info about the situation, she strongly believes the story, and believes in him. There is so much info on the web about him that any google search will turn up more than enough to read about. Personally, I would like to believe, but, I just dont know. Im not sure if I've been helpful, but oh well.


Talking to all my sexy ladies out there.

you know when a woman squirts its only urine


i happen to think this way, and so does my husband, we're very old fashioned. but i want to go back to work when the kids start school, and he wants me home at night, so that doesn't leave much time for me to work. there aren't many jobs in my small town, so what are some money making hobbies? thanks for your input, i greately appreciate it.

My cousin has a part-time job, in the daytime, at a greenhouse, along with her friend.  Her husband at first was really upset, as he felt it was a slight about his income. But she explained to him that she just wanted to have something that would help her to not miss the kids so much when they are gone all day and she is at home alone. Her job starts when they go to school, finishes before they come home.\n\nListen, if the money is not all that needed and you don't have to work, then why not volunteer?  There is SUCH a need for people as volunteers in so many places, and it won't offend your husband either (financially).  Not only that, but you can choose to volunteer places where they will work with the hours you have to give.  Start small, like one day a week.  Show your husband you are still there for him, and you may be able to expand from there.\n\nBy the way, I think the "old-fashioned" view should come back in fashion... GREAT for you!!!!!


I watched Dateline last night. Author Michael Baigent theorizes that the Bible has clues that support his theory that Jesus was drugged so that He appeared to die. He asserts that Jesus was "spirited away" after he was buried and that's why His tomb was empty on Easter.\n\nPersonally, I believe that Jesus died on the cross, was buried and rose from the dead on Easter.\n\nWhat are your thoughts? What is your reasoning? This is a serious question and I'd truly appreciate some serious answers. \n\nThis link will take you to the MSNBC website and more information about this subject: http://msnbc.msn.com/id/12041244/

For a long time (since at least the middle 1800's) people have subscribed to the 'swoon theory', that Jesus did not actually die but just fainted from lack of blood and recovered later after being taken down.\n\nThere are several problems with that, the most important of which is the fact that it was not just a bunch of townies lynching a guy they didn't like by slow torture, it was an official execution, capital punishment Roman Style. The executioners were paid professionals. The Roman state was pretty brutal, and you can count on it that if an executioner let someone off the cross alive, he'd be up  there himself next. They wouldn't let a condemned man go without checking to make sure he was dead any more than we'd let a guy off the gurney to have his lethal injection flushed from his veins. \n\nBut, some said, they didn't have modern medical knowledge. How could they be sure Jesus was dead? Well, driving a spear into a man's side and watching to see if he twitched is a pretty good indicator. That doesn't take much modern medical knowledge. Even the authorities double checked when Joseph requested the body, because they were surpised that Jesus had died so soon.\n\nBut nobody-- NOBODY-- at that time, suggested that Jesus could possibly have been taken down from the cross still alive. Why? Because they did check, and they were quite certain that Jesus was, in fact, dead! Even when the priests were looking for some excuse for the empty tomb, they tried to say that the dead body had been stolen, but they never suggested that Jesus might not have been killed. Why not? Because they knew better! Half the city must have been there to watch the crucifixion. Nobody would believe it.\n\nBut let's suppose for a moment that Jesus was taken down from the cross alive. Was he given medical treatment? no. Was he given a saline infusion to conbat the effects of dehydration? no. What was he given? He was wrapped in grave cloths-- they made a mummy out of him! \n\nWhat, did people think that Jesus' arteries just slammed shut by themselves...? Or that He wasn't suffering from shock and dehydration? It's absurd to think that a man mortally wounded could have lived from Friday afternoon until sunrise on Sunday without any care at all. That's at least 36 hours of further, uninterrupted bleeding. The shock alone could kill a man.\n\nFinally, the jewish authorities had the strongest motivation to see to it that Jesus stayed dead. If the people went to the wrong tomb, they would have seen to it that everybody learned that a mistake had been made. If there was any doubt that Jesus was really dead, they would have had the body dug up and dragged around town on a donkey-cart so that everybody could SEE that Jesus was dead. Why didn't they do that? Because they didn't HAVE the body. \n\nNo matter how self-deluded people can become, do you think that all eleven apostles bore beatings and torture without giving in without ever questioning that Jesus was alive? Why not? Because they knew he WAS alive. \n\nWhat's so imporant about being alive? It happens to everybody. Well, it wouldn't have had any significance if Jesus hadn't been dead first! A man who crawled out of a tomb bleeding and nearly dead could never have convinced his folowers that he was resurrected. Maybe that God had spared him from death, but Jesus was too honest to take advantage of such a mistaken impression. His whole life and character goes against such basic dishonesty.\n\nThe only conclusion that seems honest to me is that Jesus really did die and rise from the dead-- just as he said he was going to-!- and that means that all the other things he said were true as well. He was and is the Messiah, the Son of God, the Savior of the world, the One Who will return to judge the living and the dead.


I have tried using my mastercard to try to purchase things online and it seems that many of the sites no longer accept mastercard but only visa or discover,, anyone know whats up with that???

It's probably a cost thing.  Each company charges a small fee, so maybe mastercard raised its fee.


I'm especially interested in it's distribution over the world.

Impatiens balsamina is also known as small or Rose balsam.\nIt is included in the Angiospermic family Balsaminaceae.\nImpatiens is a genus of about 800-1000 species of flowering plants in the family Balsaminaceae. The genus has a wide distribution throughout the northern hemisphere and tropics, although they are not found in South America. Some species are annual plants and produce flowers from early summer until the first frost, while perennial species, found in milder climates, can flower all year. They can exist both in, and out, of direct sunlight. Some Impatiens hybrids have commercial importance as garden plants.This plant is distributed in the Western N. America to Siberia and naturalized in Britain.

He lives and works nearby, but doesn't speak much English. What do I say/do?

If you see him often just say "Hola Papi" and he'll get the idea... if he's shy though it's going to take a lot of work. Just become friends with him and try to teach each other your language, it'll be cute and fun. I speak very good Spanish if you need me to translate anything for u just e-mail me at cinthya2al@YAHOO.COM


If christians are acually going to heaven as they say they are why are they afraid to die? also with all the advancing technology why do they try to stop it? why are they after education too? If christianity is true as the snottty twits claim why then why are they fearful of change?

Well said and Bravo. I personally do not want to die, I want to go to the afterlife, but not their heaven.  I wanna go to my heaven, I want to drink a beer, and dance on the bar, I want to have bling, and be sexy again, and eat chocolate all day and never get fat or have bad skin, ... Hell no I don't want heaven, would you?


Sorry, first answer is incorrect.  Here it is, direct from their website:\n\n"To set the record straight, the band's name comes from a song performed by British jazz/rock/comedy combo the Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band in the Beatles' Magical Mystery Tour film."


Please don't answer if you're against Arnold ... I didn't vote for him myself.  I sincerely want to know what's good about him!

I admire him because he stands beside justice and does not back down. He cannot be bought out or swayed. Most recently we saw him stand by the law when an ex-gangster who was responsible for the horrible deaths of people tried to get out of the punishment that was rightfully due him. This convicted murderer tried to convince everyone he was a wonderful guy now (with violin music playing in the background undoubtedly), and the governor had the decency to remember that despite what he has or hasn't done while waiting on death row... those people are still dead, the parents still cry, and there is still a responsibility to pay for what you have done. I have noticed the governor sticks with whats right and does not bend. He would have my vote if I were in California.


i'm a student in a university writing argument about Bush governing. As I concerned that there are many people call for Bush impeachment but in the opposite side, where can i find Bush's professional supporters websites?

I'm no professional. However.\n\nWell you should be concerned about impeachment. It is a serious matter. But I feel the real question should be the motives of those calling 'off with his head'.\n\nOf those many people you speak of how many are registered Democrat. I don't care for many of the things Bush has done or how they were done. But you won't hear me mention impeach as to what should be done.\n\nThe Democrats have not faired well in the past twelve years. The lost Congress and then the White House. And yet with all they complain about Bush has done wrong do you hear Democratic leaders talking impeachment?  When Russ Feingold talked censure recently the reaction from other Democrats wasn't support. They shunned him like the plague in the dark ages.\n\nDislike Bush as they do, Democrats are not about to try and impeach Bush. They would love to have his head on a platter. But they may be afraid of the outcome if they didn't succeed. After losing so many elections in a row, plus their failed opposition to the recent Supreme Court nominees. To even attempt an impeachment could spell the end of the Democrats. Democrats know it's not worth the gamble. \n\nBesides even if they win who do they get? Cheney. And they have to start all over again. And who do they get then? Hasert. It's a lose-lose sitation. \n\nAnd then there's the matter of is what Bush has done impeachable? It should be obvious to the spectator the Democratic leadership doesn't think so. \n\nIf they believed impeachment proceedings were really warrented, they would be pushing hard. Even though they could be shot down by the Republican majority. Because to do so would let them re-establish some moral principle capital. At the same time 'demonstrating' how morally bankrupt the Republicans are. That would be a win-win situatioon for the Democrats.\n\nWhat I've written is political common sense. Wait a minute. Is political common sense an oxymoron?\n\nYou have a good day. No have a FAANNNNNNTASTIC day!


I lost her contact information a long time ago, I hope someone will let her know that I am looking for her.  Thanks!

I'm 21, male, live in Southern California.  Distance is not a problem for me, so that is not a factor.  I am a very affectionate man, I love holding hands and spending time with my lady.  I am not rich, so don't expect to be going out every night, lol.  I will spoil my lady though, it might not be with materialistic things, more like making her breakfast in bed, filling her car with gas.  Simple things.  I hate smoking.  I like to drink socially, and like to get pretty buzzed once in a while.  I do have a pic if that helps.  I don't play games, in a relationship you're either in it for the all, or not in it at all.  So, are there any of you on here?

Wow...if I was a bit older and lived near Cali, I'd so date you! That is if what you said is true... :)


I need to make a decision by May 1, and I am totally torn.

Ok, here's the scoop.  The difference between Smith and Wellesley is precisely reflected in the difference between the cities of Northampton and Wellesley, MA.\n\nIf you've visited, you know exactly what I mean.  Northampton is, well, "crunchier," and more eclectic, and Wellesley is, well, "smoother," and a bit more mainstream.\n\nBoth schools are fantastic, with great professors, gorgeous campuses, superb intellectual environments, and diverse social opportunities.\n\nHere's my best advice:  Check out the website below.  Search each college's name, and read the discussion boards.  That should help.  \n\n(I'm a Seven Sisters grad myself [Vassar], and know these colleges very well, from visits and from the experiences of many friends and colleagues.  Personally, I'm slightly partial to Smith.  Their campus is just so lovely.)


how can i change,where and what memory i will change  in my laptop to make it run, maybe, a little more faster.ty

Open up the laptop.\nFigure out which type of RAM it uses.\nGo to a computer store to buy the RAM.\nDetach your old RAM and replace it with a new one.

what will be the first thing you do when you actually get to go home???????

Yea - months at a time.  As soon as I get home, I'm going to reorganize my stuff so I can be ready to leave for work again.  But that's the life of an itinerant botanist.


I never leave my room, because of my pain from arthritis, my diabetes is always out of control, my hip barely lets me walk, I have copd. I'm only 58 yrs. old.

Your Physician needs to refer you, but if you meet all of the medical requirements, you can put yourself in one.


It feels like I always have to chew on something but my school banned gum what should i do??

So far a lot of good answers, but if you feel you have to chew on something, maybe a pen top or talk to a resource teacher [they tend to listen more than classroom teachers] and explain your need to chew and maybe they can get you special permission to chew gum.


Example earlier today he called me a b****h. He said he was playing. I feel really sorry for him b-cause he is afraid to talk to me. When he sees me he turns and walk the other way. i just dont know what to do.

Only take him if you could enjoy yourself around him. If for some reason you feel like is not a good idea then go with your gut feeling. Is not about him is about you is your prom too. Do what makes you happy cause it only comes around onces in a life time.


whom to talk too to help this process spent 5 years,went before a judge , since I didnt have lawyer and Drs present with in 45 min. denied againg  montomery county, tx

YOU NEED A LAWYER. I think Social Security has made disability claims so much of a hassle, that, if you don't know the laws behind it, you'll end up being screwed over even though you truly need the benefit. Even if you talk to the people at SS, they will tell to file a new claim, but if you file without legal counsel, you'll end up being denied again. \n\nSo my advice is to try again with an attorney. I believe there are law firms out there that do not charge you a dime until your case is settled. Take advantage of them!\n\nOh yeah, to the fellow below me: why are you suggesting that he file a request for reconsideration? Didn't you read that he went before a judge? That's like a case review, way beyond the point of a request for reconsideration. you only request that if you're initially disqualified for disability benefits because 1) your income exceeds social security limits and 2) not enough medical evidence. a request for reconsideration allows you to submit more evidence so that they decide your case. you dont get to meet with anyone. that would be a bad idea, since he was denied in front of a judge.


A Canadian man travelled to Maine to murder two people on a public registry.  A man who ma$turbated in the same room as his sleeping infant is required to register for life.  Do these laws dispense justice and look out for public safety equally, or is there need for change?  What's your opinion?

Yes, reform laws are necessary. In the first place, the original intent of Megans Law was to register the Sexually Violent Predators. This was a list to be kept by Law Enforcement. The states receive grant money for the number of offenders on the registry. Therefore, the states started making more and more things sex offenses. Things that have absolutely NOTHING to do with sex. As a matter of fact, in Florida, they are getting paid for deceased, deported, people that live in other states and just visited FL. If you took all of the ones off of the Florida registry that didn't belong there, it would cut their registry in half! Then if you took the other nonsense off and left only the Sexually Violent Predators, the 36,000 + that they have on their now would be around 2,000. \n\nThese registries are nothing but feel good legislation. The politicians use this hysteria to garner more votes. The registries are also giving parents a false sense of security. 90 to 95% of sexual offenses occur by someone known to the child. Not by the predator ready to jump from behind the tree.


Can someone explain to me why if this is "America ". And we are suppose to speak english. have to learn spanish in a english country. When we came here to be america's.

Easy our cars don't fail or cheat on us.\n\nThe second question is I don't have a clue.


What's your opinion on these two species of degrees? Clones or completely different animal?  I recently got accepted to a respected national MPA and a small local MBA; hence my small dilemma. I have equally solid resumes one both sides (retail management, military, legislative aide).  Military is paying for the degree, so cost is not a factor.  Based on school visits and talking to people, the running joke is MPA's are good writers who fear technical work, and MBA's are technical but can't write or spell. Agree?

I read it can be a problem resulting from excessive m.asturbation where the body produces so much seminal fluid before it even gets hard that makes it difficult to get or maintain an erection.\n\nAnyone know of any way to fix this problem or just some general information?  \nSerious answers only, please.

Are you sure this is seminal leakage?\n\nSometimes there can be too much of a good thing. For many young men, masturbating creates more problems than it solves; it doesn’t make them grow hair on their palms, but too-frequent ejaculation can cause youthful impotence and seminal leakage. \n\nUnder most circumstances, masturbation is neither good nor bad—and one recently published study reported that 87% of women and 95% of men have practiced masturbation—but when done to extreme, it causes drastic changes in brain and body chemistry. Masturbating too much can over-stimulate acetylcholine/parasympathetic nervous functions and disrupt the liver’s release of enzymes that synthesize neurotransmitters acetylcholine, dopamine, and serotonin. Additionally, the liver’s ability to release enzymes that aid in hormone production is affected. As a result, the brain and adrenal glands produce too much dopamine, norepinephrine, epinephrine, and other hormones and neural transmitters.\n\nSymptoms that over-masturbation (also called Sexual Exhaustion) is distressing liver and nervous system functions include youthful impotence/erectile dysfunction (including a soft or weak erection) and seminal leakage. While more than 30% of men have experienced impotence at one time or another, impotence in youth is more rare and can often be attributed to the above factors.


my friend just was diagnosed with staff infection  in his wound on his stomach. the wound was caused by a gunshoot

You answered your own question.  The infection was caused by a gunshot, not sex.  And if your friend was shot, then your friend is obviously a loser.  Don't have sex with him.  Leave him and don't let him know where you are.


Rory Emerald for me!! I mean, Mo Rocca went to Harvard. Big wow. He seems like an idiot to me. He acts like one on tv. Rory Emerald is cool. They both are, but Rory is just like an Average Joe who is pretty cool.

there was this smirnoff ad from a good few years ago, where there was an  action movie style storyline to it,this guy was chasing after another guy who was dragging a damsel with him, and every time the camera moved and passed by the vodka bottle, the image changed to something completely different, but with a similar shape, with a bouncing, breakbeat soundrack ...I have never seen a better ad...so what is the best you have ever seen??

I saw ones a guy and a girl were sitting in 2006 Honda. Suddenly it seemed that girl was giving that guy a b.j. But when camera angle changes, it showed that girl was sucking gear-stick of that car instead. It cracked me up.

I am from punjab.I have done Graduate and Nursery Teachers Traning.All my study in punjabi.I want a job.But i cant speak in English too much.I can speak in Hindi and Punjabi.Tell me what i can do.

Watch American TV. Crazy as it sounds it will help you speak more fluently.  Soap operas are good for this.  I would also recommend you enroll in an ESL (English as a second language) class at your local community college.


Me and my friend noticed that the layouts of the grounds, and hagrid's cabin, were different for the 3rd and 4th movie. Was there a different castle, or just a makeover, so to speak.

Same castle they just shot it with different angles. Plus different directors so i'm sure they wanted their vision of the castle as well. Hagrid's hut does move and so does the Whomping Willow but oh well.


We was real close. But now she is gone. What can I do??

Sounds all too familiar with me. My grandmother, who basically raised me  and was also my friend and support system, passed away a little over two years ago...and I still haven't let go. I still find myself sitting and thinking and ending up in tears because I miss her so much. It is very difficult, but you have to remind yourself that she is still with you everywhere you go, and no matter who you become. She will always be with you because it was she who helped to shape you into who you are today...you'll never forget that. How do you get over that? You just deal with it day by day and it will get better. You might also want to keep something near you that she'd given you, or something that reminds you of her...if you need to talk to her, hold it, and speak your mind. I know it sounds stupid, but it works. \n\nIf you do, however, feel that things are getting way out of hand, maybe you should consider therapy. I probably should have! :) Just keep your head up and remember the good things...you'll be fine. My condolences....


i come from rome and i am tired of this constant stream of prejudice directed against the roman people. i am deeply religious and am gorribly offended when my people are blamed for the death of our Lord. it was the jews who forced pilate to kill jesus. stop blaming the romans

Why do you say 'people say'?\n\nI am tired of hearing 'people say this' and 'people say that'...\n\nas a good Roman Catholic (I assume you are not a Jesuit) you should have had the scriptures and a reasonable version of accompanying 'history' explained to you...\n\nif you are "deeply religious" you will forgive them (those 'people') their sins...\n\nnow, quit whining and focus on something that matters, something less egotistical than your assumption of offended dignity...

2 1/2 months ago I sent in a request to the FBI for an official FBI police certificate and have heard nothing back.  I am worried the application has been lost.  Is there any way to contact them to check the status?  Please provide a site or other reference.

Is it for a job?  It's either still in process or you passed it.\n\nI don't think it's a good idea to call attention to it, if you know what I mean.


is there any kind of drugs that can be used to increase libido in a woman

Some women have a hard time reaching climax. Once you figure out the most effective way to bring her to climax she'll want it all the time. She might not know what she's missing. Some women go their whole lives without having an orgasm. Try watching lesbian porn to see how they give each other oral sex, then try it on your girl friend.

sudenly she will write about a deadline due in 3-4 days. then if i say something she will turn around and make a derogatory remark about my abilities to finish the degree. I think she is jealous as i am her senior in terms of experience..how to let her know that this habit is causing our relationship problems

I'm in grad school as well. Trouble with your advisor is a delicate matter because they have a lot of power over you. But you have to realize that it is a business relationship just like any other and even though you have a great deal of emotional involvement and you may even be scared of her, you have to put that all aside and do what's best for yourself. You have to be firm and stick up for yourself without going into how the other person makes you "feel". Treat it like its strictly business. You have a job to do - finishing your thesis. Because she is either disorganized, flighty, inconsiderate or just plain out to get you, she is preventing you from doing your job to the best of you abilities. You have already tried to address the issue with her, now you are going to have to take it a step further. Go to the chair of the department, not to get her in trouble but to explain your situation, ask for guidance as to what plan of action to follow, and to cover your ass if your advisor should be intentionally sabotaging you. I would also ask if its possible to be transfered to another advisor. \nIf the chair is all smooth political double talk and not much help, you should try talking to your advisor independently of other issues about your Ph.D, just about how difficult it is for you to do things at the last minute and that it isn't resonable. Be definate, say if you want a project, or draft, or spread sheet, or whatever I would ideally need X amount of time - Y amount at the minimum.\nI know its scary, but don't let them push you around.


I've been told it is not worth it to file bankruptcy if your credit card debt is under 10,000.  Right now it is $8000 and I haven't contacted anyone about it because I really don't know what to do since I don't have the money to pay it off and I'm worried about them garnishing my wages.

I would suggest that you consolidate your credit card balance to the card with the lowest interest rate.  At least pay the minimum (but pay more if you can), if you stay current on your payment, you won't ruin your credit score.  If you file bankruptcy, that will stay on your credit report for 7 years.

- in the chorus there is a line that says    bum bum bum diggy diggy bum bum     or something like that\n- it is a rap song... fairly new i think?\n- i heard it played on a commercial or advertisement on comedy central

Are you talking about the commercial where there is a guy singing in the rap song and someone is dancing on the commercial? If so, does the guy sing in a Reggae/Jamaican type voice? Let me know if this is the commercial your talking about and if so, I just might be able to help ya ;)

i'm using videora iPod converter. i then import them to iTunes & upload to my video iPod but they end up without sound. can someone talk me through the process? thanks.

I've been getting the same problem too using QuickTime Pro to convert .avi or .mov files to .mp4.  I've found it's really hit or miss with the conversion.  If one file doesn't convert,  I have to go find another that will convert.  Sorry if that's not much help, but I'm glad to know I'm not the only one!  haha


If so, what is it?\n\nHow did it come to be 'Your' song?

I LOVE JACK DANIELS. It is very rare for me to drink anything else. i re- met my boyfriend at the bar his mother worked at (I knew his sister and mother for years, and had actually met him once or twice) anyway, as we got to know each other, he told me I remedied him of a song. i had never heard of it before, so he bought the CD. it was WHISKEY GIRL by Toby Keith. Ever since then, I have been his little whiskey girl.


okay well me and my ex was going out for 2 years and we broke up for 3 months we are still friends u know we both love each other but  my ex don't want to give me a chance to prove him that i worth his trust . when we was together for a year i let a boy kiss me and i felt so bad and hurt that i told my ex the mistake i did i love him adn he love me he stood with me after i told him but 9 months lata he remember and dump me he wanted us to stay friends he told me that we was never gonna get back with each other eva because of the mistake but lately we been talking like b4 we been talking for a week straight and 3 hours straight i was just talking to hima nd he is gonna call me back but been asking me what if he ask me back out what would i do and im confused because i thought he didn't want to be with me so why do he keep asking me he tells me i love when he wants too . and i tell him i love you too because i do but what is wrong with him he tells me he don't want to eva be with me

This sounds more like it's confusing than like an actual problem.\n\nTry to relax and let your ex make up his mind.  He's obviously not sure what he wants at this point.


Mine is the one with a little boy in a sling shot ride like the ones in Gattlinburg and he almost falls out but the person with him in the ride is having a blast while he is having a life and death situation.  Its funny, I guess you have to see it for yourself.

How does it differ from a non-Christian relationship?  Were you both Christians when you met each other, or was only one of you a Christian?  What do you see as the major faults of non-Christian relationships?  I know I'm asking you to be very general and I acknowledge that every relationship is unique, Christian or non-Christian.

When I met my husband, 1988, he was just falling away from Christianity, and I, being at that time a non-Christian, pulled him even further. We got married in a registry office (Gretna Green, Scotland), and after being married 6 years or so, things weren't great between us. Then God virtually hit me over the head one day, I had a shock revelation that God was real, and I became a Christian. My husband was adamant that I was being a fool by believing in all that, but 2 years later and after much prayer, he came back to Christ, that was a year ago. Now we have a great marriage, we lead a house group together. Our marriage may not have survived had I not believed that God wanted me to stay married (it says so in the Bible.) There are faults in all marriages, whatever faith you have, but for us, seeking God's will together has put all our troubles in perspective, when we have money problems we know God is helping us through so that cuts out much stress. Also raising our kids to know Jesus makes parenting easier as there is a higher authority to refer to.

I am trying to go low carb and lower my sugar so I will not become diabetic. I'm not sure what sugar alcohols are and if eating food with them in it would be ad bad as eating plain sugar.

Sugar alcohol is a sugar substitute that affects blood glucose levels less dramatically than regular sugar. They contain a little more than 1/2 the carbs than an equal amount of normal sugar. \n\nThere are some unpleasant "side effects" too. It can cause abdominal discomfort, bloating and diarrhea if you eat too much.\n\nOn the positive side, sugar alcohols will not cause cavities.  \n\nAll in all, its fine to consume in moderation.  But, don't eat too much.

I've had a major shutdown. I've had 32 easters in my life so far, but for some reason this year I can't remember if the kids wake up on Easter Sunday morning or Easter monday morning and find eggs. My oldest daughter seems to believe they wake up Easter Monday (bunny comes Sunday night) to the eggs, but I'm sure it's Easter Sunday (bunny comes Sat. night). \n\nSomeone please help me!

Traditionally, no matter the country, it is Easter Sunday.  The bunny is supposed to come on Sat night and the kids wake up to Easter Eggs and baskets on Sunday.

Im doing an english paper and we have to do a paradox over this quote. i dont know nething about english, so im stuck! someone please help!!! i just need a couple of ideas...thanks!

The paradox is that since slavery is about power then the effect cannot be equal. The enslaver is the power holder  while the slave is the submissive. So, the enslaver is in a more advantegous position to derive a benefit from the power structure while the slave is disadvantaged....think about it this way....slavery as a power structure only has a place for 2 sides (2 sides of the same coin as it were)...but the consequences/benefits are different depending on your place in the power structure....\n\nSo following this line of thinking, a good paradox would be ..."slavery represents 2 sides of the same coin with different weights"....


David Copperfield has been doing it for years.


do really most of kids "choose" being genius or it's a pressure of their parents?are most of them lucky being "others"?

There is no "choice" to being a genius. All that means is that you learn quickly and perceive patterns (both real and abstract) easily. It usually means that academics, for your chronological age level, are way to easy. It also means that you are a PERSON. As in, a normal kid with normal needs, like friends, kid-type experiences, and times to be silly and have fun.\n\nIn my state (New Mexico) they are working hard to ensure that gifted kids have childhoods, while keeping up academic and creative challenges.

Massage the areas that are in pain, and apply heat. Whatever you do, do NOT apply cold or the muscles will tighten there and cause even graeter pain. A relaxing bath may help, as well as normal exercise. Hope it helps!


Does a major like that even exist in a four year public school?

Doesn't exist at a 4-year school.  I was an audio/studio engineer for years, I learned by doing.  There are vocational schools that offer audio engineering certification and help place you in employment when you finish.


If a weather report and it says partly cloudy, then the next day it says partly sunny, what’s the difference?

This is a trick question. There really isn't much of a difference. They all mean the sky is part clear, and part cloudy. It just gives us a larger vocabulary to work with. \n\nAlthough most of the time, we'll tend to use it as a bit of psychological factor. If the forecast is improving (as in, rain event is just ending and we'll clear up a bit), we'll usually go partly sunny. \n\nIf the forecast is deteriorating (as in, it's sunny now, but rain moving in tomorrow), we might say mostly cloudy as the condition during the increasing clouds. \n\nWe tend to save 'partly cloudy' for nighttime, since we can't use partly sunny.


I saw a news clips the other night about a bunch of folks starvin somewhere in Africa or someplace like that. Apprantely in this God forsaken place there has been a drought for decades.  \nAnd I asked myself, why doesn't the Lord just make it rain or send those poor wretches some manna? Then THE SPIRIT came upon me and I realized, it must be because they are heathens. And THE SPIRIT blessed me with the thought--what if we gave all those starvin heathins their own KJV BIBLE so they could read it and get RIGHT with God. \nTHEN God would bless them and take care of them and make the rains come, and send them manna from Heaven. \nIsn't that a great idea? PRAISE THE LORD!!

PRAISE THE LORD is right brother.  Send those heathens stacks of bibles, so they can learn the true word of god and learn how to appreciate what the lord has given them.  A chance to serve god a chance to donate to the Christian Coalition and a chance to join the Promise Keepers.\n\nGod will make it rain if these heathens can learn how to pray.\n\nGod bless man


^ means to the exponent of\n\nI don't know how to deal with the ^4 inside, I'm not getting the right value for a question in my course, haven't done basic calculus in a long time!

Let u = 1 + x^4 and then apply the Chain Rule. This allows your expression to be written as\n\n1/sqrt(u)^(1/2)\n\nwhich is equivalent to\n\n1/u^(1/4)\n\nwhich, in turn, is equivalent to\n\nu^(-1/4).\n\nDifferentiating this expression with respect to x yields the following:\n\n(-1/4)*u^(-1/4-1)*(du/dx).\n\nNote: du/dx = 4x^3.\n\nTherefore, the desired derivative is \n\n(-1/4)*(1+x^4)^(-5/4)*(4x^3).\n\nIf we simplify this a bit we are given\n\n-x^3/(1+x^4)^(5/4).


my boyfriend left a hickie, how could i hide it?

Oh man. I know it's so hard. Look at these sites, they have a lot of good ideas. I've always tried to comb that area, I heard it breaks up the broken blood vessels. Hopefully you don't have to visit your family soon!


I know that there's been a lot of attention over the past 50 years on the Civil Rights struggle.  Now don't get me wrong, I think that the Civil Rights Movement was a wonderful thing.  But my question is this... Why is it that no one really notices the discrimination that can go on when blacks attack whites?  Trust me, it happens.  So why does no one say anything about it?  Is it because they're afraid of being known as rascist themselves?

I wanted to agree with you until  I read the line about blacks against whites.  If you had said a system problem that discrimates against whites in favor of minorities I would agree, but your saying blacks against whites, and thats a different problem.\n\nWhen a school admits minority students who test worse then white students because they choose to give weight to the person who is a minority, its a bad thing of course.\nWhen the Michigan State police admit black females who score 88% on the test, but require white males to get 97%, thats a problem of course.\n\nBut when a black man chooses to hate white people, for whatever reason, its of course a social ill, but one that isn't reverse discrimination, just a black man who sunk to the level of the racist white man.\n\nI had a coworker who as a child had to run to school so that the staplers white people threw at her wouldnt hit her in the head.  Her brother forever hates white people. She however says a person is a person, and I need to get to know the person before I hate them, cause if I just hate them for the color of their skin, then I am as guilty as the person throwing staplers at me.\n\nI think thats about the most intelligent thing I heard from her.


You have many gears in a line that is two light year long. You spin one gear the others imediately spin. If you spin the gear at one end of the line, how long would it take for the oppsite gear at the other end of the line to move. Would it be two light years because of the limiting speed of light or instant?

light years isn't a time, it is a distance \nso it would be 2 light years


It's mainly the smutty questions that irritate the most.

I agree...I report them for abuse if they do not follow the community guidelines.  There are kids who read these things too!


it's showing 30Degs of advance at 1500rpm and there's no more marks to get 36Degs. i need to be sure im getting all the power i can out of it and need to be sure it's advancing right at the right RPM

check your timing first at idle speed, vacuum advance unhooked from the distributor and plugged off. \n8-14 degrees, usually i set it at 11-12.\nrev up motor to 3000 - 3500, check it again. now should be at 32-38 degrees, this is called total advance. now-\nwatch the smoothness of the way it moves on its way up to 3500, it should advance quick at first, then slower the more rpm, but smoothly and not erratic or jerky or all over the place. best way to get total - use a timing light that has a dial or a way to measure degrees so you dial the mark back to 0 on the light and read the #. that is the # of degrees. if you dont have one, go to the local speed shop and get a strip of timing tape. that will let you watch the #s better if all you have is an old scholl light.\nhope this helps.


The Life Span of a Republic... \n\nAbout the time our original 13 states adopted their new constitution, in 1787, Alexander Tyler, a Scottish history professor at the University of Edinburgh, had this to say about the fall of the Athenian Republic some 2,000 years prior: \n\n"A democracy is always temporary in nature; it simply cannot exist as a permanent form of government. A democracy will continue to exist up until the time that voters discover they can vote themselves generous gifts from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates who promise the most benefits from the public treasury, with the result that every democracy will finally collapse due to loose fiscal policy, which is always followed by a dictatorship." \n\n"The average age of the worlds greatest civilizations from the beginning of history, has been about 200 years. During those 200 years, these nations always progressed through the following sequence: \n\n1. From bondage to spiritual faith; \n\n2. From spiritual faith to great courage; \n\n3. From courage to liberty; \n\n4. From liberty to abundance; \n\n5. From abundance to complacency; \n\n6. From complacency to apathy; \n\n7. From apathy to dependence; \n\n8. From dependence back into bondage " \n\nProfessor Joseph Olson of Hamline University School of Law, St. Paul, Minnesota, points out some interesting facts concerning the \n\n2000 Presidential election: \n\nPopulation of counties won by: Gore: 127 million; Bush: 143 million; \n\nSquare miles of land won by: Gore: 580,000; Bush: 2,427,000 \n\nStates won by: Gore: 19, Bush: 29 \n\nMurder rate per 100,000 residents in counties won by: Gore: 13.2, Bush: 2.1 \n\nProfessor Olson adds: "In aggregate, the map of the territory Bush won was mostly the land owned by the tax-paying citizens of this great country. Gore's territory mostly encompassed those citizens living in government-owned tenements living off government welfare..." \n\nOlson believes the United States is now somewhere between the "complacency & apathy" phase of Professor Tyler's definition of democracy, with some 40 percent of the nation's population already having reached the "governmental dependency" phase.

If we believe Tyler, the average age of a democracy is 200 years, then we should be close to the end!!! \n\nBut the theory is flawed, what about the ability to self-correct. Most democracies are driven by not just policies set 200 years ago but also by changes made to it over time. In fact, I would argue that these chain of events would more likely be valid for a dictatorship than a democracy. \n\nAs long as the democracy is willing to change and improve it will remain robust. \n\nAs for statistics for the Bush-Gore elections, they just state the obvious ...majority of the poor voted for democrats while rich voted for republicans.


It's called "Horror Hotel", 1960, black and white with Vincent Price playing a small part.  Thanks!  BTW, this is the creepiest (mentally) disturbing movie I've ever seen, it's 20 years since I've  seen it, and get the creeps just thinking about it.  Worth looking up!

Check bizrate.com for this movie.\n\nVincent Price is a favorite of mine.   Now I'm going to have to get this movie !


I know the answer is 1.8%; I saw the show.  But when I entered it into the contest, it said I was wrong.  Anyone else run into this problem?  BTW, it says they are all incorrect.

I just answered it to on the contest showing 1.8 is correct.

What is anorexia? \n\nAnorexia nervosa is one type of eating disorder. More importantly, it is also a psychological disorder. Anorexia is a condition that goes beyond out-of-control dieting. A person with anorexia initially begins dieting to lose weight. Over time, the weight loss becomes a sign of mastery and control. The drive to become thinner is actually secondary to concerns about control and/or fears relating to one's body. The individual continues the endless cycle of restrictive eating often to a point close to starvation in order to feel a sense of control over the body. This cycle becomes an obsession, and is similar to any type of drug or substance addiction. \n\nWho is at risk for anorexia?\n\nApproximately 95% of those affected by anorexia are female, but males can develop the disorder as well. While anorexia typically begins to manifest itself during early adolescence, it is also seen in young children and adults. In the U.S. and other countries with high economic status, it is estimated that about one out of every hundred adolescent girls has the disorder. Caucasians are more often affected than people of other racial backgrounds, and anorexia is more common in middle and upper socioeconomic groups. According to the U.S. National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), an estimated 0.5 to 3.7% of women will suffer from this disorder at some point in their lives. \n\nMany experts consider people for whom thinness is especially desirable, or a professional requirement (such as athletes, models, dancers, and actors) to be at risk for eating disorders such as anorexia nervosa. \n\nWhat causes anorexia? \n\nAt this time, no definite cause of anorexia nervosa has been determined. However, research within the medical and psychological fields continues to explore possible causes. \n\nSome experts feel that demands from society and families could possibly be underlying causes for anorexia. For many individuals with anorexia, the destructive cycle begins with the pressure to be thin and attractive. A poor self-image compounds the problem. \n\nOther researchers feel that this disorder can stem from a particular dysfunction often seen in families of anorexia patients. In this particular type of dysfunction, family members become so interdependent that each cannot achieve their identity as an individual. Thus, family members are unable to function as healthy individuals and are dependent on other family members for their identity. In children, part of this dysfunction includes a fear of growing up (especially girls). Restrictive dieting may prevent their bodies from developing in a normal manner, and, in their thinking, restricts the maturational process and maintains the parent-child relationship that the family has come to rely on. \n\nSome studies also suggest that a genetic (inherited) component may play a role in determining a person’s susceptibility to anorexia. Researchers are currently attempting to identify the particular gene or genes that might affect a person’s tendency to develop this disorder. \n\nAlthough no organic cause for anorexia has been identified, some evidence points to a dysfunction in the part of the brain (hypothalamus) which regulates certain metabolic processes. Other studies have suggested that imbalances in neurotransmitter levels in the brain may occur in people suffering from anorexia. \n\n------\nDefinition of Anorexia\n\nAnorexia: An eating disorder characterized by markedly reduced appetite or total aversion to food. Anorexia is a serious psychological disorder. It is a condition that goes well beyond out-of-control dieting. The person with anorexia, most often a girl or young woman, initially begins dieting to lose weight. Over time, the weight loss becomes a sign of mastery and control. The drive to become thinner is thought to be secondary to concerns about control and fears relating to one's body. The individual continues the endless cycle of restrictive eating, often to a point


My supervisor is always "helping" me answer clients' questions and butting in on conversations between me and our clients because she wants to "help" me.  It is undermining the clients' confidence in me and gives our boss the impression that I don't know what I'm doing and she has to rescue me.  How do I get her to stop?

It sounds like you have a micro manager who want her hands on everything that goes on in the office....\n\nA pleasant way is to call a meeting with her and explain to her that you have the experience and professionalism to deal with clients and it undermines your abilitity and confidence when she interupts....Not that she isn't helpful and infact you learned a great deal from her doing it but you would appreciate it if she gives you the chance to grow...\n\nThen, if she doesn't stop and interupts your conversation with a client just say out loud, not too loud but loud enough so that others would hear "Excuse me would you stop micromanaging and allow me to do my job?!

Doesn't it make the bat lighter? Can you swing it faster? What's the advantage?

it supposedly helps make a ball go farther with its spring-iness. however, studies have shown that that effect doesn't really exist. it would also make the bat lighter and easier to swing fater. however, there are no restrictions on bat weight, so corking merely gives a slightly larger bat with less weight. and if too much of the middle were taken out, the bat would break easily anyway, so there doesn't seem to be a point.

i own a small food establishment. to bring in more money, should i get a part time job or work very hard at marketing or advertising to bring in extra money? thank you

Sure, what's wrong with two or three jobs, especially if you enjoy them. But just getting a "job" sounds like a drag. \n\nPut up a web site about your place and market it there. Run special deals. Get some pretty girls in there and the guys will come. \n\nYou are marketing wherever you go; church, meetings, lunches. Pin up fliers all over town. Leave business cards everywhere. \n\nSee if a local radio station might run a special interest story about your dilemma, "Owner trying to decide whether to close or not due to lack of interest and patronage."


After switching on all fans run..But no display on the monitor. Monitor is OK. Is it Possible my motherboard or RAM got fried?? NEED HELP!!!

I would start by changing out the power box. Open the computer and smell the power box to see if it smells burned. You can purchase a new one for under $50.00. When you have a surge, with or without a protector, your power supply will go first. If it doesn't not want to boot up, this means there is insufficient power to allow the computer to boot.\n\nYou can change this out yourself, with the help of some Internet instructions and about a 30 minutes of time. Good Luck!\n\nCheck the video graphics card also. You can test this by placing in another computer and see if you get the same results.\n\n* Well, the fans will work but the power supply will not be able to handle the entire computer. The power supply is weak or damaged, but not totally fried.


If it was allowed by law should Arnold Schwarzennger run for President of the USA?

I think the Constitution should be changed to allow immigrants to vote, but ONLY if they've been here for 20 years (Arnold has), and ONLY if they came here legally (which Arnold did).  Other than that, they also nwould need to fall under the current Presidential guidelines.\n\nI don't ever plan of voting for Arnold for anything, but the option SHOULD be open to those legal oustanding citizens.

Recently I've noticed that I seem to be very "wet" down below all the time. When I'm aroused I'm literally dripping (much wetter than I used to be), but even when I'm not aroused I always seem to be wet.\n\nI'm not sexually active, so I don't have an STD or anything like that, and the discharge is clear and slippery, like the fluid produced when I'm aroused. But why is it happening all the time? And why am I producing so much more now than I used to?

The discharge that you are explaining is very normal, its just heavier in some woman than others. Its the same discharge that a woman gets prior to ovulation. \n\nThe main reason for an increase in this discharge is a hormonal imbalance. This could be caused by poor diet, starting,stopping, or switching birth control, and even stress. I would recommend taking a woman's vitamin, or even Estrogen pills to help get your hormones back on track. Also, wearing a panty-liner might help too.

In today's school system it seems as though children aren't exercising their brains as much as memorizing and regurgitating information (most of which impertinent to actual life).

I totally agree! We have massive problems in our school district. My children are fortunate enough to have a parent who is involved with their school. PK-5 these children are taught ridiculous ways of working their Math. Most of the questions are in the same format, so they memorize the formula. But if you ask them, "What is 100 divided by 5?" they cannot give you an answer. Our schools focus on TAKS tests, and this is what is coached all year. My 10 year old says "This is a waste of my time" they are not provided with any art classes, or recess (they do have PE), they are getting burned out by 4th grade. sorry for rambling.

My son has ptosis, when one eyelid is lower than the other, and he is seculded for surgury next year, but he is a little self consicense about it. Is there any way to make that eyelid a little higher or for the eyes to appear normal sized? Please help me, thanks!

I had the surgery for ptosis on my left eye when I was 23 years old. That was about 22 years ago, and it was very successful. I could see so much better - it was like the lights had been turned up brighter.\nI know what your son is going through. People ask you what is wrong with your eye. "Did you get hit in the eye?" Did your eye get stung?" "Do you know that your eye looks droopy or swollen?" "Are you tired?", etc.\nIt is no ones business. Everyone is different, and your son should just look forward to the surgery. I never found any way to disguise the problem, and I did have makeup that I could use. That is not something that your son would be able to get away with - not without starting another round of questions!

what do you say to people who have had prayers answered through the rosary??? i have seen it a couple times myself first-hand.  Also, how do you explain people who have had the blessed mother appear to them (as some people have had jesus himself appear to them)???? just curious.

All prayers are answered by God if you're a Christian. Catholics are another denomination of Christianity, like Protestants. Man has set up a number of barriers to free worship of God. To say you're Catholic or Protestant further divides Christianity. What it amounts to is like Crocodile Dundee said, a bunch of fleas arguing over who owns the dog they live on. That's what I tell them. Christians all pray to the same God, no matter if you're Protestant, Catholic, Baptist, Lutheran, Methodist, or any of the others. To say that God only answers the prayers of people who pray the Rosary or does it differently based on your denomination is just not logical.

Find out what card you have.  Go to the web site of the maker of the card and download the drivers for it and install the drivers.  restart.\n\nSometimes, if you remove the card form the slot, restart windows, then shut down, and put the card back in and then restart, Windows suddenly remembers to look for it and installs it...sometimes not.

not right.  You know that already.\n\n:(  I know what you mean though.. You don't want to risk having your copy being lost or messed up... \n\nJust go out and get a second copy the legal way... buy it.  Then keep your copy safe and loan the other one out to your friends.

I would like to know what people think about the differences between both highly racist groups of men.

Yo whats crackalaken?... Good Questions..and being Black I can tell you the Panthers are reverse racism in the worst way. Anyone that listens to Farakhan is not the sharpest tool in the shed. I also found it funny that the ORIGINAL Klan(there a 3 diffent Klan Nations) after the Civil War was created to drive carpetbaggers(YANKEES) from the south and the 2nd coming of the Klan was the one that really started the Hangings and crap..they also hung quite a few whites and had 4 million members in the 30's. Bobby and Huey Long never came close to that with the Panthers. Both Org. now are not really strong, maybe people see that only as ONE can we do anything.


i burned myself by accident by touching the oven which was set to 400 degrees

This sounds crazy but it works like a dream.  Hemeroid cream!  My sister got a nasty huge burn and was in a lot of pain, the pharmacist told her to get the cream and the pain went away almost on contact.  If you think about how much hemeroids would hurt and the cream is to stop burning, it makes sense.  Trust me she was much more comfortable after.


Mimi, the BBC English course is very good if you plan to speak the British or Australian form and accent of English.  They also have an American form of English program which takes place in San Francisco and is very interesting.  Good Luck!


Something to make low level bass like thumps out of a speaker(s)?\n\nSomewhat like the Dripper circuit here http://www.techlib.com/electronics/gags.html except I need thumps and at a user control rate of repetition. (No light trigger needed.)\n\nI want to feel the Earth move, oh, well close to it :-)\n\nI am taking the term "Thumper" from the Sci-Fi movie Dune, but I don't expect to attract big worms!!!\n\nBTW Over in my other question "I would like to discuss Electronics and Electronics circuits, does Y! answers have a place?" (see link below) someone suggested "egurukool or eguruku" but I have not idea what that is and if it can help me with this question.\n\nhttp://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AmySoTQPTYxRiH1z1ERlCdHsy6IX?qid=1006041107923
