I've heard from my friends vegetarians that milk is not good at all and it's better to get calcium and protein for veggies and plants and stuff like that, like it's more absorbable to human body. And is it true that dairy consuming can cause diabetes and osteoporothes?? PLEASE ANSWER. I became a vegetarian too cause of it. Did I pick a good path??? HELP\nthanx

Dairy does not cause diabetes or osteoporosis (dairy is an excellent way to prevent osteoporosis)\n\nit is VERY difficult to get all the nutrients you need while eating a vegetarian diet (and impossible through a vegan diet without taking supplements)\n\nif you want to be a vegetarian you must RESEARCH and be very careful to get all the nutrients you need\n\nI agree that americans eat too much meat but cutting meat out of your diet can be dangerous if you are not careful \n\nthe amount of calcium women consume (or lack of) in their youth can have a huge affect on their health through out the rest of their lives\n\nStudies show that over half of Americans do not get the recommended calcium from their diets. The best sources of calcium are dairy products. Calcium should be provided in meals and snacks throughout the day.

I am so into older men I am 25, I had a dad  so I know is not the "father" figure I am looking for... so why I am not attracted to guys my age

Older guys are just hot!!!  There is just a "what a stud" feeling that goes along with looking at older men.  My favorites are Sean Connery, Harrison Ford, and Bruce Willis. Ouch they are too hot.

I received 2 1099-MISC forms from employers who I worked for as a contractor. I want to know if I need to attach the actual 1099 forms to my federal and state (California)  income tax retiurns (or copies of them) or is merely reporting the income on the returns sufficient.

No, you only have to attach W2s and 1099-Rs if income tax was witheld.

i read in an article that antiperspirant deodrant could cause breast cancer for women. is that true?

Articles in the press and on the Internet have warned that underarm antiperspirants or deodorants cause breast cancer. The reports have suggested that these products contain harmful substances, which can be absorbed through the skin or enter the body through nicks caused by shaving. Some scientists have also proposed that certain ingredients in underarm antiperspirants or deodorants may be related to breast cancer because they are applied frequently to an area next to the breast.\n\nHowever, researchers at the National Cancer Institute (NCI) are not aware of any conclusive evidence linking the use of underarm antiperspirants or deodorants and the subsequent development of breast cancer. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration, which regulates food, cosmetics, medicines, and medical devices, also does not have any evidence or research data that ingredients in underarm antiperspirants or deodorants cause cancer.

I'm tired of being "politically correct".  Bottom line: X-tians annoy me!  Do they realize that they are killing their own "religion" with their annoying preaching, judging, condemning, converting, well, you get the picture.  I say, "Shut up already!"

If the religion you are in is not based on promises that you can give to people who ASK for help, then it is useless. If you are a Christian and you have to judge someone who isn't, you are a Spaz and need to get a life. If you are condemning behaviour and the person didn't exactly ask you for you opinion you are disrespectful. As far as converting, that should be somebody's choice if they want to change to a religion.  I say all this because the above behaviour is not what God's wants Christians to do, I know this because I am one.


i plan on taking online college courses while i am on active duty for the miltary. i want to get my degree as soon as possible. but is taking online classes online any good? will it be recognized in the civilian workforce?

UOP is good.. It is definitely accredited.  Since you'll be active duty you'll get a specific amount of tuition assistance each semester.  The only downside to UOP is that they take every penny of the tuition assistance provided for active duty.  You can find other colleges that charge less so you have a little money left over each month, but if you're genuinely concerned about your education then that won't be a factor.  I"m AD also and when I start trying to finish my degree online i'll be using UOP.

I moved away from NOLA (Gretna) several years ago.  I was thinking about moving back the beginning of last year, but my mother became ill so I stayed in Texas.  When I found out Katrina was heading for New Orleans I stayed glued to the T.V. I couldn't sleep.  When the mandatory evacuation order was issued I broke down and cried like a baby.  I got so depressed watching the footage of the aftermath I had to make myself stop watching.  Next thing I knew here comes Rita, heading straight for my area. (Texas coast)  The poor people evacuating from N.O. now have to evacuate, because of Rita, along with all the people from Galveston, Houston, Baytown etc. It was horrible!!!\n\nTo answer your question about going back to N.O., yes, I plan on moving back.  You can take the people out of New Orleans, but you can't take New Orleans out of the people!!!

there is one router at home but everytime I download anything from my laptop, my brother(who uses another laptop) can't download.. and the problem goes on and on .... and I'd like to know which router is good for this type of case cuz i guess mine is obsolete \nthanks

My Netgear router kept crashing so I got a D-Link and haven't had any problems since. Get a 802.11G router. YOu can hard wire your desktop and just have the laptop connect wirelessly or get a PCI wireless adapter for the desktop so they can both be wireless. Depends on what you want to do.


i need information about computer hardware for example mointor, printer, scanner, cpu, mouse.and i need facts.

Go to the websites of companies that sell the hardware and look up the specification sheets for each piece.


i noticed that, i've changed a whole lot since last year.\ni used to have so many friends, i used to be more outgoing and fun. but now i feel like i've changed so much. i'm not that fun anymore, i don't talk to people allot, and i don't have that much of friends anymore. I'm only 14 right now, junior high. AND I HANG OUT WITH MY DAD most of the time.\ni see all my friends having fun all the time, going to parties all that stuff. and i don't do that anymore so i sometimes ask my self why don't i do any of that stuff anymore am i some kind of freak now? that noone wants to hang out with. i'm actually a very energectic person, i get bored really easily. I sometimes think of wierd stuff out of nowhere i guess you can say i have a strong imagination. it kinda freaks me out sometimes about the things i think about. like.. I sometimes ask my self am i crazy for thinking something stupid like that.. or whatever. i get scared pretty easily. maybe i just think of wierd things out of bordom?

You're perfectly normal. You just want to hang out with your dad more, and that's fine. Maybe you can hang out with your friends once every two weeks or something.

In Security/ Cyphering: I know that it's bad to use a one time pad twice becuase it can be "easily" cracked. What I want to know is that if I have two cipher texts encoded with the same key (made up of groups of 6 digits each) and a list of the only workable six digit groups for the plaintext, how  can I determine the key? I know it is possible without brute force. Please only answer if you know what I'm talking about.

This algorithm will run in O(n) time with respect to the number of workable six digit groups, assuming that you've got a good hash table implementation. Note that it's possible that this won't necessarily result in a single solution.\n\nPut all the six digit groups into a hash table\nfor each six digit group\n-----determine the pad necessary to encode it to the first ciphertext\n-----decrypt the second ciphertext with that pad\n-----if the decrypted second ciphertext is present in the hash table, then you've found a potential key\n\nI apologize for the dashes.

Who is supporting who? What's going on? I have no clue...

It is complicated, but here goes.......\n\nBack after WWII, displaced Jews needed a place, and a lot had gone to that area.  To make a long story short, Isreal was divided for the Jews and the Palestineans.  The Jews got the lion's share because other countries felt sorry for them about the Holocaust.  Later, Israel attacked and took more land to create a buffer zone between them (the Gaza Strip).  The leaders signed a treaty in the 1970s on the White House Lawn, but the two peoples of the two lands have not been cooperative in ending the violence.  Israel would be in trouble if not allied with the U.S., and Muslims side with the Palestineans.  The problems never seem to resolve, and show no signs of resolution any time soon.


How much does one have to invest in Germany to be accepted for migration there.

Yes .\nMore than 1 300 000 ( one million and three hundred thousand usa dollars ) .\nTen ( 10 ) new German jobs must be created .\nBusiness must be successful for at least three ( 3 ) years .\n\nAfter that , you qualify to receive a residence permit .\n\n\nAny of your four grand-parents is a German citizen ??

There r some teens will meet ppl from myspace offline and got raped. But most childeren still go on anyways. 89% of teens know it's dangerous to meet ppl offline but 20% of them still do it anyways, is there any other reasons that parents banned us from going on myspace? \nwww.myspace.com\nwww.myspace.com/xoxapplesodaxox

If yahoo answers gets negitive publicity from CNN parents will be convinced that its the answer to their children's saftey too.\n\nMyspace and even Yahoo answers should monitor more the content and ages of kids.\nIt is true what you say. No amount of banning is going to stop kids from doing it. if its not myspace,yahoo 360,zanga,live journal it will be some other program or online community.I think the situation is more with  internet awareness education, not banning myspace accounts.

I have about 10 certifications such as my MCSA, Security+, Network+ and more. I am also almost done with three degrees including Computer Forensics, Computer Security, and lastly Network Administration. I am curious if anyone is hiring for any kind of position anywhere in Germany. I am also very skilled with Linux/Unix and Bash scripting. I know basic German and am learning more and more each day!


gotta throw in my 2cents, I carry concealed about 95% of the time I go out and every time I am on a date. Why? well i was in law enforcement for 12yrs (i know ex-cop) and I saw a lot of ugly things happen during my "tour". The long and short is I could never forgive my self if something happened to someone I loved or cared about because I was unable to react to a situation. HOWEVER if a situation arose, i would remain a trained observer and attempt to relay all info to the PD on my cell phone unless i had no other option. Having said that, I know of people that carry and they scare me too, so I see both sides.

I'm curious to know what insights people have into their own dreams.

I have a ton of recurring dreams. none of them are particularly frighting or happy. I have dreams that really happen. I've had dreams about buildings, haveing never even been in the same state as that building, and later i have moved there and been in that building and known exactly how to get around in it, because its all so familiar.\n\nOr i might dream about a town or neighborhood, and years later be driving some where and see it for the first time, and even reconize the people. \n\nmy favorite dreams are the ones that mean nothing in real life. The ones that dont actually happen later, (trust me, even after two decades it starts to get creepy) like where iam flying, or being chased by people and iam so fast and strong that i get away with little effort. \n\nDreams can be very important things. More than just keeping us busy while we're asleep. :)

I have saved my favorite web links in IE but now want to locate them alphabetically instead of scrolling all over the listings for each one.

1. Have you ever stolen something? Even something little?\n2. Have you ever told a lie?\n3. Have you ever commited adultery with another person? Jesus said that even if you look with lust at a women or man has already commited adultery in his/her heart.\n4. If God judged by these laws would you be innocent or guilty? (IF)\n5. Is it worth eternity in Hell not to trust God just to see if he will forgive you on Judgement Day?\n6. Do you know what God did for you so that you might not go to Hell?John 3:16: For God so loved the world he gave his only begotten Son so that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. He gave his life on the cross- the worst punishment possible at the time.\n7. Does it concern you enough that if you don't know Jesus personally you will go to Hell FOREVER?\n8. Please pray this prayer if you wish to know Jesus as Saviour:God, I know I've done wrong.Lord, today I give my life to you. Come into my life today.Amen.

NO SHOPPING, NO SCHOOL, NO WOR!\nThe boycott will take place on May 1st (Day of the International Solidarity of Workers).\nLabor strikes, No purchases, go out and march. \nSoon they will see the impact immigrants will have. \nProtest the racist HR4437

Yes I heard about it. All immigrants should suport it. According to the anti-immigrant people, "immigrants are a drain on society."  If this is true, then during the day on May 1st the stock market will surge, and the economy will boom.  If not, we prove them wrong once and for all.  We know what will happen!\n Don't listen to those people who said that they will go and buy more things on that day, if they said that it is because they know that it will affect the country!

I'm a 21yr old female and was diagnosed about 3 years ago with having tachycardia.  My doctor ran some tests and said that I should not worry about it, that everything looked alright. But my grandpa died of congestive heart failure at 67 and had diabetes, and I worry about that happening to me. What should I do to find out if there is anything to help slow my heart rate down so it does not develop into anything more serious?

You really need to discuss your options with your doctor.\n\nHowever from experience, my mother was diagnosed with it as well when she was 40.  She started taking Lenoxin and has been taking it ever since.  She's 73 now...and still well and "kickin'."


I have been with this guy who is a little older for a year and a half now.  He is really an amazing person and I do care and love him. He trusts me so much and there is so much passion and love there. However, a past boyfriend has come back from the war in Iraq and after two years there is this amazing bond.  It is like we took off like no time had passed.  We even fooled around a little bit.  When I told him I couldnt have sex with him he wanted to know why I was with a guy so much older and that we could start our life together like we had planned back when we were 18 and dating.  I am so confused.  I really love my current boyfriend.  Why do I have these feelings with my ex?????

You are falling into a typical relationship trap.  People always find it easy to fall back in with an old relationship because you share certain memories and events from your past with them that you don't have with your current relationship.  Plus you tend to usually blank out all the bad stuff from that previous relationship and the good stuff is almost magnified.  The thing is that in reality you two are no longer the same two people you were back then.  If you have an actual relationship together it will not be the same as it was.  Right now your in a good relationship but you've probably been in it long enough now that it has lost a little bit of its excitement as all long term relationships tend to do.  Your ex is back and right now it is exciting and new and gives you a rush but remember, that won't last.  You need to look at your life and what you want in your future.  Are you willing to give up this current relationship to have a relationship with your ex that may or may not work out?  Which person and relationship is really best for you in the long term?  Remember, new relationships are always exciting at first but the difficult thing is finding someone for the long haul.


A story about twins in the news--one black and one white--started this conversation at work. I think that race is nothing but a culturally defined thing, just a display of the genetic diversity of humankind. No one is white, black, yellow, whatever--just varying shades of brown. I think races are just big, ingrown (since a lot of people will only marry within their race) families. The cultural and genetic differences are just like the differences between families, only on a bigger scale. Racial conflicts are just like family feuds, and just as pointless. What do you think?

You made a very good point. We are all varying degrees of the same color, but for the sake of colonization, they had to make distinctions to clarify that "we are better than them, because..." Go do some research on how the whole classification of the races came about. You'll be enlightened by what you find.\n\nRace is just a handy way of justifying/maintaining the power of one group over another, of knowing who to hate. Take what's going on in this country right now, for instance. Attacks on muslims have been primarily, if not totally, on the proverbial "Arab-looking" guys, dark skin, etc. But there are muslims in europe who are regular ol' white guys. Did anyone randomly attack regular looking ol' white guys in the aftermath of 9-11? Nope.\n\nI believe that human beings have an innate need to feel superior to someone else. Some of us are able to surpress that feeling and even understand that we have it. Others have it coursing through their veins. If a radioactive meteor were to smash into the earth tomorrow and turn everyone blue, people with big ears would start trying to dominate people with small ears.

I know government grants are available but it is difficult to find out how to acquire them and what kinds are available.

You can go to the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) http://www.cfda.gov and Grants.gov http://www.grants.gov - these are two sites created by the federal government to provide transparency and information on grants. Browse through the listings and see if you can find any grant that would support your purposes.\n\nEven if you buy books on "how to get grants" or list that supposedly has information on grants -- all of them are mere rehash of what CFDA has, albeit packaged differently.\n\nNote though that these grants generally support non-profit organizations, intermediary lending institutions, and state and local governments. Most of the federal grants are given to specific target groups with specific requirements (e.g. minority business owners involved in transportation related contracts emanating from DOT - Grant#20.905 Disadvantaged Business Enterprises Short Term Lending Program. Individuals especially for personal purposes are not eligible for federal grants. \n\nGrants are also often given to non profit groups or organizations involved in training or other similar activities (grant 59.043 Women's Business Ownership Assistance that are given to those who will create women's business center that will train women entrepreneurs \n\nTo apply for grants, go to Grants.gov http://www.grants.gov . They have everything you need to apply for grants. \n\nThe first step is to register with Grants.gov and their registration process can be accessed from http://www.grants.gov/assets/ebizregchec...\n\n1. Get a Data Universal Number System (DUNS) Number\n2. Register with Central Contractor Registry (CCR)\n3. Authorize your Organization's Representatives\n4. Login as an E-Business Point of Contact (POC)\n\nYou will first be asked to find the grant number of the grant that you wish to apply for. You can get this from the Catalog of Domestic Assistant http://www.cfda.gov which is the federal database of all grants.\n\n\nhttp://www.cfda.gov\nhttp://www.grants.gov\nhttp://gtionline.fdncenter.org\nhttp://www.powerhomebiz.com/vol66/grants.htm\nhttp://www.sba.gov/expanding/grants.html


The cost of producing a number of items (x) is given by C = mx + b, in which b is the fixed cost and m is the variable cost (i.e., the cost of producing one more item.)\n\n(a) if the fixed cost is $40 and the variable cost is $10, what is the cost equation?\n(b) (in coordinates) how would graph the cost equation?\n(c) The revenue generated from the sale of x items is given by R = 50x. How would I graph the revenue equation on the same set of axes as the cost equation?\n\nand, finally,\n(d) How many items must be produced for the revenue to equal the cost (the break even point)?\n\nI HAVE tried to figure it out. I'm drained.\n\nThanks in advance....!

(a) just substitute:  C = 10X + 40, where X = number of units produced.\n\n(b) It's a straight line with horizontal axis X and vertical axis C.  So, plot (0,40) and say, (5,90) and draw a straight line.\n\n(c) It's a straight line also thru the origin with a slope of 50.  Here, the vertical axis is R but it's the same scale as the C.

along the way between the penis and rectum get itchy whenever he sweats or wear the undies overnight. Why is this happened?

The sweat causes his skin to rub and itch.  I would recommend wearing boxers so that the area has more ventilation and he will sweat less.  At night, he should just sleep in the nude.

And what will happen when it will appears?

The mark of the beast will occur after the rapture. All Christians will be called by Jesus to be taken to heaven, and satan will have seven years to live on earth. The mark of the beast is something that placed on humans who have accepted the devil. It's an easy choice to make, the mark will be neccessary to interact within the community, and without one you will be hunted down. The mark is a seperation from God...not worth taking.


they don't seem to work on me, i chose light ash blonde and i am nowhere near this, i have always been light beige but now its darker and a bit reddish. don'y know what to do to regain my true lightlight beige.

I would suggest to go to a salon to get what you want.They will show you samples and you can pick exactly what you want. Those dye kits you buy in the store never turn out exactly as they claim. There is more to colouring hair than anybody really realizes.


I just saw my first Hickory Crawdads game tonight. Who else cares besides me???? \n\nI love the game of baseball and enjoyed it immensely even though it wasn't the most exciting game and even though the Crawdads lost.

glad you like the minor league baseball. I like it also its cheap and the games aren't that bad. Some of the promotions are just too crazy but hey, its great.

Where did the words north, south, east, and west come form, and why were the four directions named so?

'north' is from Proto-Germanic *norð (of unknown origin); 'south' is from Proto-Germanic *sunð (possibly from Proto-Germanic *sunnon 'sun' + -ð); 'east' is from Proto-Germanic *austo- from Proto-Indo-European *aus- 'dawn'; 'west' is from Proto-Germanic *westaz from Proto-Indo-European *wes- 'evening'

i want to copy my resume to disk but the computer tells me that the drive letter e is not accessible .the disk media is not recognized.it may not be formatted.how do i correct this without spending money because i believe there is a solution that does not cost a arm and a leg.

You didnt say whether it was a new of just reformatted HDD, sometimes you have to bite the bullet and start from scratch in the long run it takes less time doing it the right way. FIRST partition the HDD THEN format the HDD go to run type cmd that brings you to the command line then type format space drive letter colon (format c:) that is from the old days now if you need to format a floppy substitute a  for c Once the HDD is formatted correctly, e is usually a CD or DVD drive unless you have multiple HDDs the easiest way is to go to "my computer" and see what is there. if something is missing many times a cable has been disconnected so open the case and check to see all the connections are in place and tight

and geometric shapes.  What precisely are these functions in geometric terms?

Take a unit circle and a point p on the circle. Embed the circle to be centered at the origin on a Cartesian xy-plane. The cosine of p, cos(p), is the x-coordinate, or abscissa, of p. The sine of p is the y-coordinate. These functions are the projection functions for the unit circle. \nIt is common to give the points p on the 1-dimensional circle the coordinate referring to the arclength between p and the positive x-axis (as measured clockwise). Thus, the point (1, 0) on the unit circle is given the native coordinate (0), or 0 for short. Inversely, the point 0 in the unit circle has Cartesian coordinates (cos(0), sin(0)). Since the circumference of a circle is 2Pi, a point that is a quarter of the way around the circle from the positive x-axis is given the coordinate 2Pi/4 = Pi/2 and so forth. This system of coordinates is called radians and is the native way of measuring angles, as each angle has a unique radian measure. \nThis relationship can be seen by drawing a radius from the origin to mark the angle and assigning it the radian measure of wherever it intersects the unit circle. There are more analytical reasons as well, as you go on to study calculus.\nThe radius drawn above also gives the relationship between these circular projection functions, and the way one first encounters trigonometric functions, as ratios of the sides of right triangles. Now you should be able to visualize the triangles inside the unit circle (or any larger circle, dependent on the triangle's hypotenuse), and see why the trigonometric functions are cyclic in 2Pi, and derive some properties of the trigonometric functions that are not easily apparent from just looking at right triangles.\nThe tangent function is so named because it is the length of a certain tangent to the circle; a tangent drawn from the positive x-axis to where it meets an extended radius of the circle. You may be able to work out the equation tan(p) = sin(p)/cos(p) from the geometry involved. If you're familiar with the secant function, (1/cos(p)), you may want to know that it is a geometric secant as well. See the sources below for pictures.


Someone opened a phone account using my name and personal information but different mailing address. Am I permitted to obtain the information regarding this account even though I was not the one that opened it?\nI would like to refer to the section of the law that allows me to obtain that information. \nPolice was involved (I filed police report) but they were unable to obtain any information regarding this account without search warrant.

Your name, your personal information?  Yes you should be able to access the account information.  It is after all your personal information that was used.  Talk to the company where this account has been opened, tell them you want copies of all the account information.  They can't rightly refuse as the name on the account is yours.  If they have other personal information like social security number and birth date then they really can't despite that you are the person on the account especially if you show proof.


I'm rather ignorant about WiFi I must admit - where I'm living, we have WiFi, but I never manage to get out on the net using this signal, because I get a message it is very weak.  So, my question is, is there anything I can do?  Are there boosters or anything like that I can use on my laptop?  And hey, if anybody answers ... I'm deffo not a computer nerd, so I need "simple" answers ... sorry... :(

Buy a cantenna. It's a Wifi receiver that boosts the reception range of your PC or laptop's wifi card. They sell for about 50 dollars.


Do they not want to dominate everything and everyone?\n\nI must look like that from the developing world.

They are always bombing people invading their countries.\nThey corrupt governments and terrorise the people\nThey cheat the farmer with low prices and get cheap oil to waste.\nThe dig up Africa [etc] and take all the minerals\nThey put up trade barriers to keep people down and poor\nThey flood the world with a vile culture [which includes everything Christianity says it does not believe]\n\nThen when everyone is dying they throw a few cents at them and feel good


i know that not all islamic people hate the U.S., and christians. I just want your opinion on why you think the one that do hate the U.S., feel the wqay they do.

Hi. My name is Mohamed Yaser, and I'm a muslim. You see, your question's got lots of answers. First of all, the 9-11 terrorist acts don't have to be necessarily done by muslim extremists as you say, it could probably be someone who's trying to give the world a false idea about Islam. There were lots of such things before, and many of them were discovered later. you see, Islam is a really peaceful religion... REALLY peaceful, but your media just doesn't like it that way, so if you want to know about Islam, try looking somewhere else. You can check out this site (it's one of our biggest sites online, and you'll find a link for English): www.islamway.com.\n\nHowever, I don't deny that there ARE infact some Muslim extremists who do commit terrorism, but these guys are usually people who don't understand Islam well, so they go around blowing everything up and think that this is gonna send them right to paradise. I think people like these are present in all religions, sure there are Christian and Jewish extremists too.\n\nNow, after telling you all the other possibilities, I'll answer your original question: Why do these extremists hate the U.S.? Well, your question shows that you really don't know what's going on in the world (sorry, no offense!!). Haven't you heard of what's going on in Iraq and palestine and Afghanistan and Chechinia and and and and? America is practicing pure terrorism there, but the American media apparently doesn't show you that. America just looks for any reason to get in, and then starts destroying everything; houses, people, women, babies, everything. The pictures and videos are all over TV. You can't expect Muslims to see that and just love the USA do you!! And then there was this reprint of our quraan, and those cartoons offending our prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). All that and you're asking why Muslims are angry with America?\n\nMuslims don't hate christians or anything, they just don't like whats going on, and in our religion, to fix this, were supposed to talk, to argue peacfully, not fight. This part is what the extremists don't understand.\n\nWhew! that was long! Sorry for the boring answer, I just wanted to make everything clear. Thanks for your very polite question, many people aren't that civilized.\n\nHope my answer was what you wanted! Bye!\nMohamed Yaser

I guess because it departs from tradition and what people are used to.  The women's movement was only 30-40 years ago, and a lot of people still aren't conditioned to the fact that a woman can find happiness and success on her own.  I am 27, rather attractive, own a business and make more money than most married couples my age, yet some people treat me like I've got one foot in the grave and had better hurry up and get married because 30 seems to be the magic deadline.  The truth is, I would love to get married when I'm damn good and ready to find the right one, whether it be tomorrow or when I'm 75.  I'm just not going to get married for the sake of marriage, which a lot of people seem to do (hence the divorce rate today).


is there any other way to prevent achne rather than using medication?

Prevention\n\nConstipation is the main reason of acne. Treat it immediately, if you have.\nDrink lots of water to prevent major skin problems.\nAvoid eating chocolate, fried food, and refined sugar.\nKeep your skin always clean by washing with very mild soaps and lukewarm water.\nDo not try to prick and peel the acne as this can leave permanent marks on the face.\nEat plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables.\nTake B-complex and zinc supplements daily to strengthen the skin's resistance to acne.\nApply cucumber paste on your face. Wash it off after 20-30 minutes with lukewarm water.

A butterfly needle is a type of IV catheter.  The needle is very small.  It kind of looks like a butterfly, because there are plastic wings that extend out from the needle.  The wings provide a flat surface for them to use to tape it down.  These are the same size needle they use in children.

married for over 15 years. wife had one proven affair and I suspect at least two others.  She has not been involved in others for many years that I know of but other major events have caused me to rethink what she truly feels for me.  3 years ago she traded with a neighbor that I did not like (she knew it) my 4x4 of 15 years for a non-running ford escort wagon, after I repeatedly said not to.  I had moved to another state to start a new job and she stayed behind to put the house in order.  When she arrived without my truck she said getover it.  I was so mad that I did not want to talk to her ever again and did not for over a month. I finally gave in but did not feel what I considered to be love any more for her.  She had simply become a parental partner and I did not want to be with her any more, but felt trapped.  today I feel the same only with guilt that I have let it go this long without telling her how I feel.  I need to do something about it. help.

She sounds as if she doesn't treat you the way that you would like to be treated. I wouldn't like it, but I am not you.\n\nYou sound like you need someone to hash all of this over with to make sure you know what you are thinking. On observation, you have not been close acting for a while. If you can't tell her, write it a couple of times to get confidence. Then drink a beer or a coffee one day and tell it to her straight. \n\nThen do what you have to do to be happy. No use wasting the rest of your life pretending. Time to be free to be true to yourself.


I found a bump in my vaginal area..\nIt's kind of purple looking and hard, nothing comes out of it, and its not pusy or red looking at all, just kind of purple/blue looking, like the color of veins..\nit's about the size of a pea\n\nany idea what it could be?

Does it hurt? It sounds like an ingrown hair, but I would make an appointment immediately. Please don't wait until it grows even further


My husband and I are overseas and are going through a lot of hard points right now. We are about to move and we have been trying to find a house and jobs. We haven't really had time to be together at all, and it is driving the both of us crazy to know that this loneliness is only going to continue until we get settled when we get back to the states, which no telling how long that will take as well. The sex is good, but there isn't any passion in it for me anymore. He isn't all that happy about it either. I don't like to return the favor and I really don't care for him to go down on me. What should I do about this? I also don't talk to him like I should. Comunication isn't exactly what we are good at and are going to be doing marriage counseling but I don't want to talk about the sexual aspect of it with a thrid party that will be sitting infront of us. It isn't comfortable for me. This is my best medium. I am 21 and he is 31, but he still has a very good sex drive! lol. I'm clueless.

just think about the times when you first started the relationship. reminisce and remember why you fell in love the first time. don't take each other for granted. there are TONS of things that you guys love about each other but just forgot. have a fun evening somewhere nice. don't talk about work. don't talk about problems. just laugh by remembering all the funny stupid things you guys used to do. Good luck. let me know how things work out.


It seems like there are a lot of flavors of Christianity, there are several fashions of Buddhist practices. \n\nWhich ones is best for our times?

http://www.buddhanet.net/e-learning/snapshot02.htm  <<< differences on Mahayana and Theravada Buddhism.\n\nBuddhism is the same: there is Theravada Buddhism, Zen Buddhism, Pure Land Buddhism, Yogacara Buddhism and Vajrayana Buddhism but it is all Buddhism and it all has the same taste - the taste of freedom. Buddhism has evolved into different forms so that it can be relevant to the different cultures in which it exists. It has been reinterpreted over the centuries so that it can remain relevant to each new generation. Outwardly, the types of Buddhism may seem very different but at the centre of all of them is the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path. All major religions, Buddhism included, have split into schools and sects. But the different sects of Buddhism have never gone to war with each other and to this day, they go to each other's temples and worship together. Such tolerance and understanding is certainly rare. \n\nThe Buddha — the "Awakened One" — called the religion he founded Dhamma-vinaya — "the doctrine and discipline". To provide a social structure supportive of the practice of Dhamma-vinaya (or Dhamma for short [Sanskrit: Dharma]), and to preserve these teachings for posterity, the Buddha established the order of bhikkhus (monks) and bhikkhunis (nuns)— the Sangha — which continues to this day to pass his teachings on to subsequent generations of laypeople and monastics, alike. \nAs the Dhamma continued its spread across India after the Buddha's passing, differing interpretations of the original teachings arose, which led to schisms within the Sangha and the emergence of as many as eighteen distinct sects of Buddhism.One of these schools eventually gave rise to a reform movement that called itself Mahayana (the "Greater Vehicle") and that referred to the other schools disparagingly as Hinayana (the "Lesser Vehicle"). What we call Theravada today is the sole survivor of those early non-Mahayana schools. To avoid the pejorative tone implied by the terms Hinayana and Mahayana, it is common today to use more neutral language to distinguish between these two main branches of Buddhism. Because Theravada historically dominated southern Asia, it is sometimes called "Southern" Buddhism, while Mahayana, which migrated northwards from India into China, Tibet, Japan, and Korea, is known as "Northern" Buddhism.\n\nThe main branches:\n1. Theravada / Hinayana (The great tradition or the way of the elders)\n\n2. Mahayana or "Greater Vehicle" : Variants of Mahayana Buddhism:\n-Tibetan Buddhism\n-Zen Buddhism\n-Pure Land Buddhism\n-Nichiren Buddhism\n\nhttp://www.buddhanet.net/worlddir.htm  <<< world buddhist directory (you may want to go to a temple or monastry near you & make enquiries). \nIf for whatever reason Buddhism appeals to you, obviously a bit of reading cannot do any harm. You could try a few introductory books from any tradition to get a closer idea of what Buddhism can mean for you.\n- Try not to get confused with the various traditions: just go for what feels right and ideally do a course. Amazingly, it seems to me that at least 90% of the people stick to the tradition they started in - somehow karma seems to be at work there... Anyway, the biggest differences between the Buddhist traditions are usually more on the surface than in the ideas behind the appearances. Although for example in Zen you will find very little ritual etc., and in Tibetan Buddhism you may be overwhelmed by it, at the core of the practice are the same ideas, just different methods.\n- Once you decide to get involved with a specific tradition, make sure you are not dealing with a controversial/dubious teacher or school; although someone may wear Buddhist robes or calls him/herself a lama, guru or even Acharya, that does not make him or her a saint.... There are unfortunately a fair amount of questionable 'Buddhist' teachers and c


What does a girl feels if someone says "you are beautiful"?

Every girl likes to hear that she is beautiful.  It makes us feel good that someone appreciates the amount of work we out into looking good.  Like eating right, exercising, buying nice clothes, hair, makeup the whole nine yards is worth it.  I also take into consideration his non-verbal signals as he say the words.  \n\nFor instance, if YOU were to tell me that I am beautiful but you are staring at my breasts, I wouldn't feel like you are sincere and I would just probably walk away.\nIf you were to look me in the eyes and say that, I would be flushed and talk to you for a little bit.


Will the Cardinals win more than 8 games this season(why/why not)?\nAlso,are the 49ers gonna do anything else this season besides suck-if you're a fan explain 49ers deal this year.\n\nDo the RAMS have a prayer in hell?

OH YEA, the Cards have an EDGE in the NFC WEST, if u know what i mean. come on, the 2 WR, the edge, warner is ok. their OL is coo, they'll make it to the playoffs. \nAs a niner fan, yes they'll be a better than a 4-12 team coming season, they'll move up to 8-8; or 7-9. i know thats not much different but improvment comes in small size, what can u say. \nthe Rams, forget bout it. they'll go no where, with that high powered offense and no D. its over. \nthe hawks will perform well again. u know y? well look at the schedule, only 3 really hard games: KC, DEN AND SD. the rest are ok.


well im 26 M working in MNC .my job timings are 11:00 am to 11:45:pm and my weight is 105 kgs (231.5 pounds) & i dont  get enough time to look after my health .most of time i sit infront of computer and i spend time in sitting in cab when i go to office and return to home back because my office is 70 kms from my home.how to maintain my body as my waist size is 38 inches .i wear a jeans of 36 waist ....actually my upper body part is more bulgy as compared to my thighs and waist

Only exercise will help.  You need to put you health higher in your priority list.  Do you ever relax?  Do some exercise for at least part of that time.  At work, walk up the stairs instead of using the lift.  Get the cab to drop you off a block or two from work and walk the rest of the way - and then increase the distance.  It's important - you're setting up your health issues (or not) for later in your life.


I love that cd. I love "What Hurt's the Most" and "Country Song Backwards"


If you smoked cannabis, how long will it take to get out your system and what can you do to accelerate the cleansing process?

you need to exercise because thc (cannabis) can cling to fat cells therefore excercise and saunas are great, you should also get some of these detox pads for the feet , you get them on ebay and they are fab.  6-8 weeks is the time taken if you indulge heavily and frequently and drink water constantly.  goodluck it can be done but you need to be dedicated.


My friends got these and they says it hurts but I still don't have it(I'm 11)so I don't know how much it hurts


Why do we use the word "an" before the word historic?  We don't say have "an" happy holiday.  Have an happy birthday.  I refuse to use the word an before the word historic.  It makes no sense.  Anyone know why we do this?

BASIC explanation why "an" may appear before a word beginning with /h/:\n\n1) the initial /h/ IS not pronounced\n*generally in "hours" hono(u)r"\n*American English - "herb"\n*some dialects  "humble",  "hotel"\n\n2) history - that is, the /h/ USED to be silent:\nthere are a number of words whose initial /h/ was originally not pronounced,esp. those derived from (Old) French, which did not pronounce it (sometimes did not even spell it)\nSome of these (examples listed in #1) STILL do not pronounce the /h/ in many or all English dialects.   Others that have added a pronounced /h/ may still be treated as if they did not have it  -- 'historic(al)' is perhaps the best example of this\n\nBUT this is not enough -- those who say "an historic(al) event" (pronouncing the /h/) ALSO usually say "a history"!\nSo, there's one other very important factor, which is:\n\n3) The syllable starting with /h/ LACKS an ACCENT\n --Specifically, if the SECOND syllable is accented, the initial /h/ is WEAKER, perhaps only very slightly pronounced  (It seems especially weak if the following vowel is formed in the front of the mouth -- a, i, e  (vs. vowels made further back  -- o,  u)\n\nSo, if the first syllable HAS an accent (especially the MAIN accent) it is preceded by "a"   --thus we say "A HISTORY" (unless, of course, you're Cockney)\n\nTo get the sense of how this works, just try saying the word "historic" all be itself.  You may notice that you scarcely pronounce the /h/.  Even if you do, it may feel like it takes extra energy do so  (whereas when you say "history" the 'energy' is already supplied by accenting the syllable)\n\n[Some have said 'accented' or 'unaccented', but this is not quite correct.  When the SECOND syllable is accented, the first syllable has the LEAST accent; if a LATER syllable has the primary accent the first syllable may still have a SECONDARY accent, and the 'fule' just described does not apply.  Examples: 'hospitality' 'hippopotamus'] \n\nIn fact, in expressions like "an historic..." many find that the inclusion of the /n/ can actually make the words easier to pronounce (though in that case the /h/ is usually only VERY slightly pronounced). \n\nOther examples where "an" may be found (all of which have an accent on the second syllable): "an hereditary title" [vs. "a HERitage],  "an habitual liar" [vs. "a HA-bit"], cf. "an hysterical child"  \n\nNow if you were to try some of these expressions in a search engine you would likely find that "an historic" and "an historical" are much more commong (in proportion to "a historic" "a historical") than these other examples.  That leads to the FINAL(?) factor that affects pronunciation.\n\n4) HABIT! That is, we're USED to hearing it that way, and so it just seems right, even if it does not follow the "rules" we may generally us for such cases.\n\nThus, the reason 'historic' and 'historical' are far more likely to be preceded by "an" than other words that might "qualify" is that they are more COMMON words or expressions.  People are used to hearing them this way.    This is hardly unusual.  In any language the LESS common a word is in everyday speech the MORE likely it is speakers apply the "general rules" to that word.   Thus, irregular verbs in a language [forms of to be, come, hit, ] are COMMON words.


I go to court tomorrow for a child support case. I've heard so many bad stories about having to deal with it. My ex and I are on good terms when it comes to about 95% of issues. Can tihs go smoothly for us if he agrees and copperates? Or does it always end up in a "support Battle"?

You are going to be fine if you and your ex are on good terms.  Don't lose any sleep about it.  Dress nicely and bring a book and a snack because there will be a looooong wait.  But don't be afraid to say something if you feel something isn't quite right or fair.


Did it make you feel better? Did it work? Will you ever do it again?

Worst:  "I feel fine" as I pass out from an accidental blow (also later found out there was some internal bleeding).  I don't think anyone believed me.  I hope I don't have to ever do it again!\n\nOn a lighter note...Best:  "That's so fascinating!"  "Wonderful!"  Blah blah blah.  That's just when I have allowed myself to become one half of a bland conversation.  However, I do feel good about making the other person feel good.  Besides, you have to be nice to weird people because they are weird, and you don't know what they will do because they're weird.  I do it often enough, and I sort of have to anyways.


Becuase 18yo's are weird..and 16yo's arent. It is not rape.

I'm using a Belkin video bus for the transfer but it's not capturing the audio.  Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Play the video with sound first, if you got screen and sound, then you have no hardware connection program.\nIf hardware, check cable, sound card, plug, socket, on both ends, try it on other pc if you can\nIf not hardware, then is software, you have to check the platform sound control, the capture software setting etc.\nUpdate of sound driver to the latest is a must before the software test.

I don't want any "don't start" or health responses.  also, where do you cut it, and what is the best way to smoke it?


My girlfriend is always complaining about money because she pays all the bills and I don't have a job...  But then she DEMANDS sex every single day....shouldn't I get a pass on the bills? After all, I do all the work in bed and it's hard being treated like a "piece of meat".

You're getting loads of sex for no dollars! What more advice do you need, meat-boy? :D


you'd probably have better luck if you specified which river valley.


From my understanding all of them say it is a sin. I know Islam does. Yet so many gays say they are religious people, mostly from the Christian faith. Whats your opinion on this.

Faith and spirituality should have nothing to do with gender, race, ethnicity, age or sexual orientation.  Those are social issues and should have no bearing on the spiritual world so anyone should be able to have faith and practice the religion of their choice without the politics of religion getting involved.


being payment agreed in writing to a collection agency they keep calling and stating they are going to file a lawsuit, what can i do, they offer a settlement which i cannot afford

Wow, sounds like a pickle.  First off have you confronted them on the issue of the contractual statement you both signed and agreed upon?? You need to confront them firmly on that and ask them if they themselves are breaking the contract.  Act like a lawyer and get tough.  You have your rights and as long as you are paying the agreed amount within the time limit given, you are should be legally safe.  Whether or not they are a legit agency that plays by the rules is another story.  \nTry contacting some government agencies regarding rights and commerce.  Try the phone book, online and through the library.  Even try the ACLU and ask them if they can refer to you the proper support network and then get some support.  Every large town should have a group that does free or low cost legal advice as well as representation.  Try those!  \n\nAlso, ask them why they are doing this beyond collecting the alloted amount that you are legally expected to pay.  Question them, challenge them...call them on the spot about what they are doing.  If they insist, tell them you are seeking legal counsel to see if what they are doing is legal?  \n\nJust get tenacious and find out from every free source what you need to, to protect yourself.  You have rights, remember that!


Do you change clothes, open a beer, roll one, flip on the TV.....................

I love jewelry but not on my body (it gets on my nerves)\nso the 1st thing I do is remove all jewelry then off with\nthe shoes.  A cold drink is next then I start to unwind.\nThe very last thing I want is to have to answer the phone \nwhen I'm just getting home--that puts me in a bad mood the rest of the night.


The cymbalta med TV spot. It's a nice song but I can't seem too find it, and it NO it's not on any P2P under cymbalta\n.\nThanks, I will reward you with points if you find it.

One for the Shiites, one for the Sunnis, and one for the Kurds.

interesting idea but their are already territory disputes happening between the groups because of where the oil is located. i think it makes more sense to get people to work out their differences without resorting to violence


Seriously, no ones's forcing them to do farm labor, they are not being physically beaten like slaves, they choose to work low wages, they do not encounter mass discrimination to the tune of seperate water fountains, back of the bus, etc. On top of that, they get free emergency room health care and social programs like WIC and food stamps. Mexico itself has a law called the General Law on Population that makes HR 4437 look like a slap on the wrist. It's selfish and unfair for them to ask -- no, DEMAND -- for immediate citizenship. I have no problem with legalization through a guest worker program, but if they want to become citizens then they need to learn English, study a little bit about U.S. history and take all the other steps that LEGAL immigrants do (as well as pay back taxes). I really don't see what the hell they're portesting. I'd love to see them protest this way in Mexico or communist Venezuela and Cuba. Maybe they could actually create change in their home country if they di

There protesting but yet Americans taxes go to give these "illegals" free health care. These "illegals" are just trying to change America to there liking.\n\nhttp://www.illegalimmigrantprotest.com/


Have you seen this movie yet?\nIf yes, did you like it?\nIf not will you?\nWhere do you live? \nWill this movie "hit home"? \n\nI'm in California USA. I dont plan on seeing this movie because I saw all the news on it I could stomach.

To anyone who HAS NOT SEEN UNITED 93 and is opening their big mouth about United 93 and saying negative stuff about it:\n\nThis move WAS NOT MEANT TO ENTERTAIN! - If you have seen it you would know this. You dont know what you are talking about. \n\n10% of the opening weekend have been donated to the families of those who died on this plane, thats a lot of money, more than you donated I'm sure, which is probably nothing. I did my part by watching the movie, which 10% of my ticket sales will go to the families and the memorial fund, I know it is not a lot, but multiply that by every one else who did their part and went and saw the movie, and it totaled to $1.15 million, not to mention i told everyone I know to go see the movie too. A donation fund has been organized to accept donations from individuals and companies, with a goal to raise $30 million. \n\nAll of the family members approved the movie, and in fact helped by provideing detailed information about their loved one who died on the plane so they could accurately be portrayed, and not by some hollywood star either, they were layed by no name actors, just regular joes. \n\nThe movie was fantastic! And it reveals truths that needed to be revealed. It asks Americans the question, Are you going to forget? I hear people saying we need to forget about it and move on, what a ridiculous thing to say! Will you be saying that when we are attacked again, but this time with a small WMD that has been smuggled in throught the mexican border and detonated at the capitol, or a major metropolis? When 500,000 die because of this, will you be saying that forgetting about the first attack benefitted us? C'mon, get real! \n\nIts going to happen again, and it will be a lot easier for it to happen, if we keep trying to forget about the first attack and move on with our lives, eating at mcdonalds, watching seinfield, and driving our cars fueled by blood oil. \n\nI dont mean to offend anyone it just makes me so upset to hear such things said. I think you would be saying something a little different if it was your loved one who had died on that flight. You would want them to be rememebered and their memorial to be honored, you would not be saying forget about it, move on, its too soon, blah, blah, blah . . . Have some freakin respect. \n\nThose on that plane saved 1,000's of lives because of what they did, and this is their tribute, and a worthy tribute it is, and done by a fantastic film crew, director and cast. \n\nWhat a ridiculous thing to say. \n\nSo, if you would rather continue living in your bubble and watching movies like RV(?) which grossed $5 million more that UNited 93, or Stick it, Scary movie 4, Silent hill, and you feel these movies are so much more worthy of your money and recognition, then go ahead and continue to live in your safe little world, but dont knock a literal work of art like UNited 93, which any of those other movies dont even compare by a long shot.\n\nOh, and by the way, we do know a lot about what happend on that plane because of the 30 or so phone calls that were made by people ON THE PLANE to their family memebers, who openly told of their conversations, and by the 30 or so minutes of recording from the cockpit. C'mon, peoplea are saying we dont really know what happened on that plane!? Nonsense, we know a lot more than we know about what happened on the other planes.\n\nOne more thing, sorry so long, but making movies isnt all about the money. I know in most instances it is for the studio paying for the production of the movie, but many directors have this thing called, um, passion, they want to tell stories that need to be told, storeis that they belive in, and think others will believe in too. So I guess paintings from the renaisance should be burned because they depict the crusifixion of christ, and books telling or world war two should be burned because they tell of the halocaust (but we dont know what happened there either, right?!) So you a


I have a Marlin 25N .22LR with a bushnell 3-9x scope, I have attached it to the grooved receiver with scope rings included in the scope package.  The scope slides off after about 75-100 rounds of shooting.  How can I fix this problem, or what alternatives can I use to get the scope to attach.  My receiver is not drilled or tapped by the way, and if that is the only remedy, I think I will trade this gun in for a Ruger 10/22 as the receiver is already drilled and tapped.

Before you trade your gun, try using loc-tite on the threads of your mounting screws,I'm assuming your talking about a standard "Weaver" mount set up. Position your scope where you want it for shooting, tighten the front mount screw, back out the rear and put some thread lock on it, tighten it as much as you can, then do the same with the front screw. This is how we mount all out scopes on our sniper rifles, if you have a different set up, feel free to e-mail me

no offence, but if you center your life around it and contantly view our self as a victim then you will never get over it. you can try to move on or do what every other woman does, start/join a movement or protest and "do something about it"


What I want to do is create a page or two where I and some friends can post our pics but other people can't cruise through and copy them without permission. We all know folks don't respect a copyright on line. Thanks!;-)

The answer is No. There is no way to do this. Any time there is a photo displayed on the screen someone can do a 'screen capture' and save the result for their own use. This can be done by anyone using a computer of almost any type. Sure you can disable right-clicks with javascript or whatever, but there is no way to elimante the possibility of someone stealing your images.


You know when sombody says you scared me half to death.  What happens if it happens twice?

haha, good question! \naw, its probably like a half life thing though. like, you get scared half to death once, then you are at 50%. then if you get scared half to death again, that 50% gets cut in half, so really, you are at 25% of the original. and etc.\nalright, so i know not really. youre still the same alive-ness. \nbut it sounds good. \nand smart.


Last year I was in French. I wanted to take French II , but, I descided to go with Spanish this year. I also would like to teach myself Greek. If I take Spanish and Greek this year, by the time I take French II, will I have to learn it all over agian, or is it like "riding a bike", you never forget?

Trust me, you will definitely lose it. I have known many immigrants who, after living in this country and almost exclusively speaking English for several years, forgot much of their native language. One of these is a member of my family; he's a smart guy, but that has nothing to do with it--learning a language and retaining your knowledge of it requires constant practice. If you're only taking a year off, you'll probably remember some when you go back to it, but you'll forget a lot. So if you wait longer than that, a lot of your work from last year will have been wasted--it's like taking two steps forward, one step back. The people who said you wouldn't lose it have obviously never studied a foreign language before. I'm studying French, and I forget a lot of vocabulary when I go just a few weeks without studying.

Does anyone have any ideas for VERY unique wedding favors.  I've been on all the sites.  Just the same old thing everywhere.

* Package a collection of family recipes in a small box with your names and wedding date printed on the back.\n\n* Small stacks of postcards asking guests to "Keep in Touch!"\n\n* Christmas ornaments in ivory, silver, or gold tied with a velvet ribbon (For weddings during Nov/Dec)\n\n* Miniature heart-shape, hand-painted boxes with a single delectable truffle tucked inside.\n\n* Tins of mints labeled, "Mint to Be Together."\n\n* A classic like Jordan Almonds packaged in a new way -- grouped in mini birds' nests or placed inside artfully decorated pill boxes.\n\n* Sparklers, especially for an outdoor Fourth of July celebration, will allow guests to illuminate the skies once the sun goes down -- and light up your grand exit.\n\n* Caramel apples wrapped in cellophane and personalized leaf-shaped tags are the perfect treat for a Halloween wedding.\n\n* Chinese take-out boxes filled with candies and tagged with "Life Is Sweet."\n\n* Glassine bags or tiny terra-cotta pots filled with herbs or flower seeds.\n\n* CDs of the wedding-day music or favorite tunes personally created by the couple.\n\n* Mini photo albums in fun colors are gifts everyone will use.\n\n* Scrolled astrological readings tied with sheer ribbon (ask everyone to write in his or her birth date on the RSVP cards).\n\n* Luggage tags boxed and tied with an "On the Road of Life Together" ribbon.\n\n* Personalized color pencils (some even come scented) are fun and festive.\n\n* Lottery tickets are ideal -- give your guests a chance at good fortune!\n\n* Colorful clusters of miniature floral-scented soaps wrapped in tulle to match your primary wedding colors.\n\n* Romantic: A copy of Shakespeare's love Sonnets or a book of favorite love poems. Custom-create a bookmark to add a personal touch.\n\n* a jar of honey pinned with a personalized tag inspired by James Taylor: "How Sweet It Is To Bee Loved By You."

is it wrong to get mad if my gf was to be fiancee but i screwed up i was saducced in iraq where i was stationed by a nurse and screwed her. But is it wrong to get mad if my gf tans because i like her the way she is and i dont want her to change her appearance. I donno ladies and gentlmen but i guess i care for her to much. Then she written me an e-mail telling me she is moving to nc whne i have a very stressful job here in texas. I barely even spend time with her but i love her to death. I guess i need to ease up a little bit.

hey my boyfriend is in iraq right now and if he cheated on me with some nurse i wouldnt be with him, that is so wrong! but anyway, you get mad if she tans??? ooookkkkk from what i hear that is the least of ya'lls problem. you need to loosein up and oh yeah, maybe you shouldnt cheat on her, later


Even though I went to one of the worst law schools in the country (California Western), I scored in the 99% on my LSAT and have an IQ of 150 (1 in 300).  I know I'm smarter than most attorneys regardless of school, and better at the profession, but it seems I'l always be pigeon-holed and turned away because of my school.

You sound smart, you must have done well in Law School.  If your ranking is top 10-20%, which it should be with such a high IQ, you'll be fine.

why is it so bad to have illegal immigrants to live on US land. Dont you think its good to have of all kinds of race to live on our freedom of land? Why is so not allowed why does it have to be illegal.

Along with one's freedom comes responsibility. They are inseparable. Irresponsibility puts the burden onto those who act responsibly. Is that fair?

I believe my vaginal structure is slightly odd..My outer pussy lips are just too thick & the inner lips are tightly enclosed inside.Infact my inner pussy lips are so tiny that they can hardly be seen without spreading my outer lips..Is this is the reason my husband finds it difficult to penetrate my vagina even when I m totally turned on and juicing..Me & my close friends have so often dressed together and have even seen each other nude..From what I have seen of them,their inner lips are bigger & protrude outside the outer lips..Also my hubby has shown me a few nude pictures of naked women on the net and it's the same with them as well..So if there anything wrong with me?Do I need to go to a gynaec for this problem or need to get a surgery to get this rectified?This question is in general intended for women since I really doubt if guys would have an answer for the same.Any solutions or answers reg this would be highly appreciated....Thanks

Sorry, I'm a guy and I can't help but answer this one!!  I think that kind of, UMMMM "look" is the most attractive.  There are some cultures that pull on theirs to make them longer and obviously most porn stars have this look too.  Probably from overuse, but also just genetics.  Don't worry about it you are fine and like I said, I think it is more appealing than someone who is just hanging, if you know what I mean!!!  Anyways, as far as the penetration, I'm not sure if it would matter or not, it shouldn't if you are aroused, but maybe you are just "tightly wound"!!  I don't know but I would consider myself lucky...


Can people see into your house if it's darker in your house than it is outside? When I look around at other houses that don't have lights on, I see darkness, a reflection or only what is immediately in front of the window (curtains, plants, etc.). \n\nAs a result, I tend to act as though no one can see what I'm doing inside as long as the lights are off and there is no other source of light illuminating me. My girl, however, is often appalled by this behavior. Should she be appalled, or am I correct?

Sounds like a question that would be on an iq test. I know the awnser so I guess I'm getting 2 points.

I have followed higher consciousness for almost 2 years now and my yawning patterns have changed. I used to breathe in when I yawned, now I don’t breathe in at all. I just open my mouth wide and my ears dont work the right way. You know, when you yawn and for some reason your hearing goes out. I have tried many methods and sorts of ways to understand the Universe and the more I communicate with higher consciousness and think things in my mind that are of a higher truth I "yawn". Some say it is because you are tired and want to go to bed "subconsciously". No one can define the subconscious or the dream world or yawning. Dreams are a gate way and a yawn tells you you are being CALLED. Your questions will be answered. We yawn in sync as higher consciousness travels from one mind to the next through the spirit realm. Yawns may cause physical response but that does NOT mean that it is caused by a physical stimuli. Science starts from the physical. Who says anything starts from the physical?

This is one of the best responses that I have seen in the questions that I have read regarding yawning.  Those you opine that there is nothing but the physical automatically exclude themselves from understanding so much about life.\nOne of the functions of yawning is to release energy from the back of the head, or occipital region.  The entire body has negative and positive polarized areas, and the negative areas allow for release of energy that comes in through the positive receptor locations.  Major positive areas are the head and heart.  Major negative areas are the jaw, the pelvis and the feet.  Negative does not mean "bad", just that it is a place where spent energy is released.  The phenomenon of "catching" a yawn is in my own observation, related to the matching of energy by individuals.  Whatever is heing matched in terms of thoughts and feelings cycles or releases itself from the back of the head.  The explanations given by brianarnold12 are also good, as there are various nuances and dimensions dealt with.  Understanding the importance of matching energy, and understanding the value of release are major spiritual steps! :0)

Can anyone share with me their online dating/relationship stories that have led to more??

There are quite a number of success stories that I've heard. However there are also some nasty stories like how a friend of mine who asked the girl out for a date, checked her physical appearance and decided not to appear. That was bad!\n\nIf you're considering online dating, check out this article, online dating secret http://datingsecret.50webs.com/content/Online-Dating-Secret.htm


Ok so this girl and i went out for 8 1/2 months, we broke up and i thought i was over but recently i clearly am not over it and want to go out again. She know si like her and her friends who are also my friends now i like her, but she has not given a single sign or told her friends anything that would help me

ben for the love of god!! do not act interested in her, trust me. ex-girls do this thing where they wait for your attention and then as soon as they get it they freaking bounce. the best thing(and the hardest)for you to do, is jsut be her friend like you two never even dated. totally hit on other chicks in front of her and when she's all like "whats with that" be like "nothing i thought you didnt care" thats right turn that shit around on her ass. fuck yeah!!

my husband is in affair some other girl.i have to children .i went to temple and i have done blackmagic

According to the principle of magic, everything you do to other, for good or bad, returns to you thrice. You have to do another act of magic in the reverse direction. Pray for the sake of someone you wouldn't normally pray for, ask forgiveness in the temple for what you have done, and wait for the good things to come. Remember, they wouldn't come as fast, as your penalty for black magic. Just believe that the reward will come back to you, in a good way, and try to patiently wait until it happens. The only thing you are allowed to do, to accelerate its coming, is to imagine that it already happened, and how it made you feel. Good Luck!


Kingdom Hearts II begins where Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories left off. Sora and his companions have been asleep for about a year, regaining their memories. When Sora awakens, he eventually arrives in Twilight Town, the place where a mysterious boy, Roxas, who can use dual Keyblades, lived before he left suddenly. Gaining new clothes and powers, Sora began his journey anew, unaware of the events that have taken place in Chain of Memories. Sora continues his quest by unlocking paths to new worlds, fighting the Heartless and Nobodies, as well as facing the remaining members of the mysterious Organization XIII. As the game progresses, Sora learns how much he and Roxas have in common


I had a strange idea, an opposite universe. Then, I went further into my theories. I, being agnostic, started considering ways to disprove ideas by Christianity using this idea. Well, it's said that Heaven and Hell are completely opposite from eachother, but, if they're opposite, that means everything must be opposite. It's also said that they both exist, but then... What's the opposite of existant? Nonexistant, so which one exists?

Non-existence can never be proven.  Until evidence is presented for a things existence it's simply irrational to believe in it.

"The first step away from God is the first step toward dehumanization."  C. S. Lewis, "The Abolition of Man."\n\nWhen we don't put God first, we can justify almost anything.  That has been the biggest tragedy of every age.


I get it from the Christian Broadcasting Network show called The 700 Club which is on ABC Family.\n\nwww.cbn.com\nwww.cbn.com/700club

I don't watch television, hate the commercial breaks and that most programs don't get in depth enough.\n\nI am an addict to radio. \n\nI've listened to National Public Radio ever since I can remember. Morning Edition and All Things Considered are my favorite shows. \n\nI love the interviews, the in depth coverage and the on-location reporting. \n\nIf it were on Television, it would be the show I watch!\n\n\n(I also listen to the BBC for a little variety)


I've put my time in and no one's gonna get in my way, buddy. So back to your cubicle with you, ya damn temp worker.
