What I am really after is the true time to our common ancestor.

First lets clarify terms:\n\n'mitochondrial Eve' is our most recent common female ancestor along our matrilineal line ... i.e. if you traced back strictly mother to maternal grandmother etc., she would be the most recent common great-great-...-grandmother of all living humans.\n'Y-chromosomal Adam' is our most recent common male ancestor traced along paternal lines ... tracing back father to paternal grandfather etc., he is the most recent great-great-...-grandfather of all living humans.  (If you have trouble believing that there is such a common great-great-grandfather, see the sources.)\n\nBased on (a) the molecular clock (how fast DNA changes per 1000 years just from random mutations) and (b) how much genetic diversity we find in mitochondria and Y-chromosomes of today's humans; we estimate that mitochondrial Eve lived about 150,000 to 200,000 years ago, but Y-chromosomal Adam lived only about 60,000 to 90,000 years ago.  \n\nSo your question seems to be, why would our most recent genetic ancestor be male rather than female?\n\nThe answer is simple.   Males can make a *lot* more children in their lifetime than females can.   To quote Dawkins, "A male with a large harem finds it easy to become a universal ancestor. A female, since she is less likely to have a large family, needs a lot more generations to achieve the same feat."


I'm at the begining stages of dating this guy. He lives 5 hours away. We try and see eachother once a month, both of us have busy lives with work and all. I dont request too much from him because I know he's bussy, and with the long distance thing I have to keep my feelings more at bay. But if hes feeling me as he says he does, then why doesnt he return my phone calls sometime. Day's later he calls and says it was work, or catching up on sleep, or just not wanting to talk. But do you think he may have someone else in his life? I'm too grone to be playing games, even though im 25 I have my life together.

I'm 26 and in a long distance relationship as well.  We live 2.5 hours away from each other and I always return her phone calls.  It pisses me off if other people don't return mine, so I always return theirs.  Point to remember, guys don't like to talk on the phone.  I have trouble talking on the phone for more than five minutes.  I love her, but it seems like more of a job than a pleasure.  I can talk your ear off in person, but not on the phone.  Sounds like your boyfriend is forgetful or too busy.


Both went to school far out of state and all our friends are 1,000s of miles away. We do not do church or bars.

Are you runners?  There are tons of running clubs in the Boston area, most are very social.  There's the BAA (Boston Athletic Assn, who put on the Boston Marathon), a very social athletic association that plans hikes, ski trips, volleyball games, etc.  Summer sailing/rowing on the Charles is just starting up and many rowing groups are looking for new members.\n\nIf athletics isn't your thing, you might think of taking a class at adult education or one of the University extension schools.  You might meet some great people at class.  \n\nIf you're at all musical, there are some terrific choral groups, and casual music groups.  Check craigslist - there's tons of things listed.\n\nThe Boston area's teeming with fun things to do - check out the Phoenix, Improper Bostonian, and the Globe/Herald for more ideas.


according to the common ion effect, placing CaF2 in either solution will decrease its solubility.  However when having to choose between the two, it will be most soluble in Ca(NO3)2.  This is because Ksp=[Ca+][F-]^2  The fluorine component is squared making it a bigger factor in lowering the solubility.

why is the "world series" of baseball confined to u.s. teams?

It isn't. The Toronto Blue Jays have won it twice in the early 1990's. The "World" appellation has stuck despite the fact that only teams in the two major leagues, which happen to cover only the United States and Canada, actually participate. At the time the term was first used, baseball at the major league level was only played in the United States. While some would contend that there is no reason to believe that the World Series winner is a significantly better team than any club team outside Major League Baseball, no challenges have been made by other leagues. Moreover, virtually all of the best international players — from the Pacific Rim, Latin America, the Caribbean, and elsewhere — play on Major League rosters, with the notable exception of Cuban nationals.\n\nhere was also a competition, the World Baseball Classic, featuring players from all over the world. The US didn't make the final which was won by Japan.


how do you feel about it, i personally dont think they deserve to be in the nextel series. whats your opinion and why do you feel that way. thanks.

If you look at this from cars that are dependable then yes Toyota should be in it. Although not a US automaker Toyota pushes US makers to step-up their game and do better.


I recently was given a gift certificate to have a full body massage, I am in Maryland.  Sounds like a nice idea.  I am wondering whether I should be fully nude?  Does it make a difference? Has anyone experienced it and can you tell me what to expect?

I would take all my clothes off... Therapists totally professional and will not expose any area that is not being worked on. Just relax and enjoy. Massage is one of my favorite things in life. I was a bit shy the first massage I had, but if you really feel uncomfortable you can always just strip to your boxers.


I feel happy and my chest feels a little weird. Also, my whole body feels cool. What about you?

I feel nauseous and grouchy as hell, I have terrible dreams, and I feel like crap the next day- But, I've never taken it for recreation, either.  Once you get addicted to morphine, the high it gives you slowly goes away, until you have to take it just to feel like a normal person, and when you dont have it you're depressed and anxious...not a safe thing to play with.

I'm in a band that has music similer to groups like Switchfoot, Sanctus Real, Lifehouse and stuff like that.  I just started about 6 months ago, I'm useing a 1975 Fender musicmaster right now, and I'm just wondering if there's anything better out there for me???

I too use a MusicMaster (1978) for some songs in a few of my regular bands. From the list of bands you mentioned (I have seen Switchfoot and Sanctus Real live), one uses a MusicMan Stingray (Switchfoot) and the other two use Fender Jazz Basses. You can get a made in Mexico Jazz bass for under $500, but make sure you try it out first (at a store) because they do not have a really uniform build quality, unlike Ameriacan made Fenders. If you think you will be playing other types of music in the future, you might want to get a more modern instrument (something with an active preamp) like a Yamaha or something similar. Make sure you try out differnt types and makes of basses until you find something that feels good to you. I know of bassists that own $5000 basses but their favorite is a $1200 fender they picked up at a pawn shop. It is all about how you feel. If the instrument helps you express your ideas and feelings, and feels and sounds like "you", go for it, even if it a cheap Squire or Rogue.

U hav a uncoordinated(unc) hermaphrodite, a dumpy hermaphrodite(dpy) and a wild type male. These mutations are both recessive and autosomal. C. elegans has a autosome:sex chromosome ratio mechanism of sex determination. XX is hermaphrodite, XO is male.

Are the genes linked? I don't have my book with me here.\n\nIf not, mate a male with one of them. Take the male progeny from that mating and cross with the other mutant. Select hermaphrodites from the period of egg laying when the sex ratio is 1:1 (say the second 8-hour period after they're together). Allow these hermaphrodites to self and select double mutants from the progeny. I think this should do it, but you'd better draw it out.\n\nIf they're linked I think it will just be harder to find double mutant progeny in the final stage, again draw it out to check.


I have the greatest gf and could ask for none better. She cares about me and loves me. When I have had bad days she comforts me.

She has feeled my life with Joy and I wish I could repay her but how can you repay someone that has became your everything. Let there be no doubt Jackie I love you with all my heart.

He says I'm in the idle mode.  He sends me IM's all the time - a ton of them - he says.  When I check the archive, there is nothing there - I do get maybe one IM a week.  Is it possible that he is telling the truth?  Could he be sending IM's that I am somehow not getting?  I do get some.  So what is up with this?  Or is he just blowing smoke.


Is marriage (whether civil or religious) a form of acquiring absolute property over a person's feelings, sexuality, thinking? If not, why then, the insistence on "FIDELITY"?

If it's one thing we own by birthright, it's ourselves. I believe a relationship is two wholes, not two halves. And so when we get married a spouse does not have ownership. I should not have to change my way of being to accomodate someone else's expectancy of who I should be or how I should act. After all, I was the way I am when we met right? Usually a spouse wants you to change or downplay the things they initially found attractive in you so no one else will notice those attractive qualities too. \n        I was with a man for 11 years, married for 7 of those years. He used to tell me I was disrespecting him because he had set these imaginary guidelines in his mind for how I should behave in certain instances. I had no idea what he was talking about and had not set out to be "disrespectful". So it was never blatant, but alleged covert, subtle forms of feigned disrespect. I told him I was not going to try to figure out what he was thinking because whatever it was it was his problem not mine. \n         We are not yet divorced, but separated for the second time and I assure you it will not be a third round. I need to be free to live my life and be all of who I am without feeling like walking on eggshells to protect some "imaginary guidelines" set for me without my approval or permission.\n         The part of the question that asks about fidelity; my viewpoint is thus: Some people cannot handle multiple sex partners because they are irresponsible and will not use protection. Marraige is supposed to be a plateau of safest sex. \n         BUT....if like my case, where the man cannot satisfy for whatever reason, I think within respectful boundaries (meaning I come home at night) and (don't flaunt it)...I need someone who can fulfill my sexual urges. I'm not looking, but if I happen to meet someone..... \n        Fidelity is a notion. An ideal state. But it's not altogether realistic. Who can stop two consenting adults, especially if one is unfulfilled with his or her partner at home? Even if it starts out fulfilling, it will taper in time by virtue of law of physics. What goes up must come down. Including levels of sexual fulfillment and excitement because sexual excitement is emotion and emotion is not static. It moves, flows, changes, halts etc. Even some 40 year marraiges have survived all odds, no doubt infidelity, but not because they were perfect, but because the parties involved made a DECISION to maintain a life and relationship they have built over time. Most people don't want to walk away from their investment in those years whether they were happy or not. Change is after all not easy. Life is composed of a series of changes and we must constantly readapt to our lives. Some people have relationships for years without infidelity. Hey, it happens!! But its exceptional because most people NEED change.\n         I'm getting out and don't know if I'll ever walk down that road again, although I do not discourage marraige. It's a nice notion if it works. If it doesn't, hey....there is always...............change.\n\n\nOne Life\nBe Happy\nCami


Lots of people are very good at web pages, which is why after many years and many computer languages my husband now drives truck. You could try sites like freelance and some others, but beware, people don't always pay in full. Also it is hard to contact people in other time zones when you need answers. You could submit a resume to a job site. Do they have something like monster.com in Bangladesh?


every time you hit the ball, you add a stroke.  if you go out of bounds or in the water, you add 2 strokes.  if the par for a hole (the amount of strokes you should be able to get the ball in the cup) is 5, and you hit 4 strokes, you get a -1 for the hole.  if you hit it in in 5 strokes you get par.  1 over par is a bogey.  (6 strokes on a par 5)  2 strokes over par is a double bogey.  if you get one under par, its a birdie.  2 under par is a eagle.

Its an intruder alerted by Norton Anti Virus....but it keeps popping up and I want to know what it is and what its connected to!

integer is a number used in computing to preform math operations on all computers. The size of the integer is based on the register width of the pocessor on which the code is being executed. Some examples of width is 32 bit and 64 bit versions of windows. an integer overflow can occure when a code with a bigger bit rate than the machine it's being executed on. example is a code with 64 bits being executed on a 32 bit machine. another way it can happen is that if a code with a smaller bit executing on a machine with a bigger bit. Simpky stated, ANSI is what enables a mouse cursor on your machine to work. It controls the changes in the cursor, example is when you put cursor over a link on a website and it turns into a hand. It also changes the video graphics based on your video card. tcp is a protocol that sends packets to the website from the computer requsting that website the user wants. i think the overflow is coming cause the packets the hacker is sending has a too small a bit rate or too big a bit rate. i think the hacker is trying to control your mouse. not surw. what you can do to try to block ports that you are not using by going to https://www.grc.com/x/ne.dll?bh0bkyd2 to see if any ports are open. good luck!


I know one is the eye socket and one is the nasal socket..

Temporal Fenestrae\n\nThese holes have to do w/ attachment of temporal muscles in the head. The ones responsible for pulling the jaw shut. I believe it also has something to do w/ jaw strength but I am not completely sure on that part.\n\nAnapsids didn't have the t.f. Turtles are the only living anapsids.\n\nSynapsids have one tf at the back of the head. This covers all the mammal-like reptiles.

I notice ALL the politicians talk about how "concerned" they are about high gas prices.  Why then won't they abolish the GAS TAX and "help" us out????

Does it really matter if they stop taxing gas? Any smart company would simply raise their price to where the tax would have placed it. In this case, the oil companies will keep prices around $3 and make more profits because you will still pay $3 a gallon.


In software testing, what is the difference between smoke and sanity testing? Which comes first in the testing life cycle?

There are two type of test types, Smoke and Sanity.  What they are exactly? Here we go.....\n\nThe general definition (related to Hardware) of Smoke Testing is:\nSmoke testing is a safe harmless procedure of blowing smoke into parts of the sewer and drain lines to detect sources of unwanted leaks   and sources of sewer odors.\n\nIt it is related to s/w, the definition is\nSmoke testing is non-exhaustive software testing, ascertaining that the most crucial functions of a program work, but not bothering with finer details.\n\nSanity testing is a cursory testing; it is performed whenever a cursory testing is sufficient to prove the application is functioning according to specifications. This level of testing is a subset of regression testing. It normally includes a set of core tests of basic GUI functionality to demonstrate connectivity to the database, application servers, printers, etc.


I can't imagine being with the same person for the rest of my life.. If I get married, I don't want to get divorced, so I think it's safer not to get married. Many people seem to get married for wrong reasons and end up separating.. I am tough enough to be by myself, and I know how to enjoy my life without a long time partner. Plus, I don't want to have extra responsibility that I would have from being married. The responsibility level increase when you have kid as well. \nI love kids, but don't need the responsibility that comes with it. \nWhat do you think?

marriege was a gift from God. If you really luv that person, trust me, you'll want to be with them for the rest of your life!

you can feel something bad is going to happen but you don't know what it's like when you see an accident happen and u can't do anything to stop it should i worry that something bad is going to happen or should i just ignore it?

I pray - for God to give me strength to endure this, for clarity & for wisdom on what other action to take (prayer is the most powerful action anyone can take).


How did Thomas Jefferson & James Madison use the Social Contract Theory while writing the Declaration & Constitution

OK, you're doing your homework.  You probably have a formal definition of "social contract theory," since you use capital letters.  I don't, but I'm going to answer anyway.  Maybe it fits, maybe not.\n\nA contract, in law, is an offer, acceptance and consideration.  In a social contract, therefore, we have an assumption that social institutions are voluntary, the way a contract is voluntary, and that there are benefits on both sides (consideration).  In the Declaration of Independence, this is explicit:  "deriving their just Powers from the Consent of the Governed."  It is implied strongly in the Constitution:  "We the people . . . do ordain and establish this Constitution."  \n\nIn both cases, they were contrasting our system to one with a monarch, yet that monarch was also subject to a written contract, the Magna Carta.  So the concept of contract was not new, only the way in which it was used.  It was developed to be the ruling document of the nation.  And it was a nation with a Constitutionally defined President, not a monarch.

I'm a 26 year old single parent of an 8 month old daughter. I left school with no qualifications, although  was a good student with good grades, and have spent much of my time since then living and teaching English in different countrie and learning languages (I speak Thai and Portuguese). I am going to college in September to do an access course which will lead onto a degree, the course is a year and the degree will take 3 more years. I would love to do a degree in international studies but it is a long course (I'd like to make money formy daughte sooner) and when I graduate I'll be 32 and all the other graduates I'll be in competition with will be in their early 20's, plus I'm not sure it would definately lead to a job in that field. I've been thining abou a degree in miwifery as I'd get the NHS bursary which I wouldn't need to pay back,  I've also been thinking about joining the police as it is an excellent starting salary and I can work part-time to take care of my daughter, ideas?

Check into day care through the school you wish to attend. Many colleges have special programs for non traditional students.......Then, get through all of the requirements. When a class that looks interesting grabs your interest, take it as an elective. You may find something you never knew you wanted to do. That is what I did. And don't feel bad about the whole age thing, I am almost 40, have 3 years until I get my Bachelor's Degree then I have 2-2 1/2 years until I get my Masters. You will do fine...don't worry!! If you are a good student, perspective companies will see that when they look over your resume/application. You are gonna knock their socks off!!!


If the Lakers can have a line up like this will they be a danerouse team for any team to contain? Point: Smush Parker, 2 Guard: Kobe Bryant, SF: a Scottie Pippen type of player, PF: Kevin Garnett, Center: A bill Cartwright kinda center. \nWith reserves like these kinda players: A Kerr type, a Craig Hodges type, A Toni Kukoc type, A Dennis Rodman type and a Luc Longley type do you think they can be like the Bulls of the 1990's?

Well obviousley they could be DANGEROUS.  They would be more than dangerous.  Kobe would give them the ball because he only shoots so much now because he has to if he wants his team to win.  They would definatley be a championship contender again.  And It kinda ticks me off when you all say that Kobe is a ball hog.  Who else can consistently score points on that team?  If they want to win, Kobe has to do what he does.  Lamar Odem/Smush Parker/Kwame Brown/everyone else! is way to inconsistent.  That was just the team he was given and he has to take the shots that he does.


And if He created himself, when did He do it? Does anyone know? Should we believe what Scripture says? Why is it that everyone can come up with a "reasonable" answer about God, when they've NEVER seen God?

Who created the world? \nIf you answer this question , you will get your answer. But you can't answer to this question because until you believe the god and when you believe the god , you can understand that no body created the god. God is the only existence on the world. Thinking is better than unbelieving


I always get a kick out of this. To me, using lots of swear words should be associated with IMMATURITY. I know they do this to keep young kids from watching those movies, and rightly so, but it's still humorous that they do this.

I agree. It is immature. But at the same time, I wouldn't want my kids to watch things like that. There are lots of words in the human language that can eloquently express yourself and not having to resort to profanity. Sometimes the youth see others doing it and find that it is the "in" thing to do so they do it too. This isn't being really mature. "Let's do it because someone else is and it looks cool." That's not how an adult or anyone should behave.

How do you show thanks for the things that you have and the people that are in your life?

YES!!  So thankful!!  I live in Kentucky and recently witnessed the devastation of a tornado.  When you see the news reports on television, its not real, do you know what I mean?  But when a tornado cuts a path right past your door and leaves everything torn and ragged besides for your home..you get real thankful in a hurry.  Then to show your thanks, you go and help your brothers and sisters who have lost so much by giving as much as you can...


guyz plz describe your dream girl........I dont mean by what she would look like ...I mean like what would her personality be like? what would her hobbies be? what type of music would she listen to? that type of stuff

OK. Her hobbies would be video games and working out. She wouldn't care about the type of music as long as it wasn't country. It would be cool if she could do a hurracanrana. On TV she would watch WWE and her favorite wrestler would be Kane. She works as a masseuse or is skilled enough to be one. And she does all this because she's being herself. \nAnd I wonder why I'm single.

I'm to young for my hair to be falling out at the rate that I'm going I wont hardly have any left when I reach my forties. I stress about really bad every time I go to fix my hair. I try not to do to much with my hair because it worry about it so much.

Many people don't realize that hair loss is a problem, even for women. It is particularly distressful, and I sympathize with you since you've already got a plate full of stressors. The good news is there is help. There are all kinds of medical remedies available. If you're serious about remedying hair loss, see your doctor. You can also take steps to preserve the hair your have. One easy thing, only comb your hair from roots to ends. Anything else tangles and then pulls out hair in the detangling process. Follow this pattern also when you wash and condition your hair. Also, keep your hair cut short as weight will also increase fallout. Finally, Mane and Tail shampoo seem to help, and some judicious use of hair gel will make the hair you have seem thicker. \n\nBeyond all of that, find a way to squeeze some time for yourself into your hectic schedule. Do something that relaxes you -- read a book, window shop with a friend, just sit and enjoy a cup of coffee on the porch. You have to take care of yourself or all of your body systems will suffer. Believe me, I've been there. Take care of you so you are able to take care of the important relationships you have -- with your children. \n\nSending you tons of good wishes,\n~Tia~

This is a question on if polyphasic sleep is worth it?\n\nThe polyphasic I have heard of requires you to sleep for 20-30 minutes every 4 hours for a total of 6 times in 24 hours.  \n\nAfter you have adjusted to the system you aren't tired or mentally uncapable and can get by fine on just 2 hours a day.  You do however lose the ability to stay up for longer than 6 hours at a time before becoming extremely sleepy.\n\nIs it worth it?  Would you like the extra 2 days a week? Or would sleeping in such a manner make you too "weird" socially since noone else will be doing this with you?\n\nWhat's your opinion on the pros and cons?

I don't think I could do it, as I would be awake at night and nobody else would be. Also, I'd have to fit it around college lessons.

You appear before two judges to face a crime. There are two doors next to the judges; one leads to your freedom, the other to certain death. One judge always tells the truth, the other judges always lies. You can ask only one of the judges (either) only one question to save your life. What do you ask?

Ask either judge: \n\n"Which door would the other judge tell me leads to freedom?"\n\nAnd walk through the other door.


Okay, here's the deal. I REALLY want to go to Austin College in Sherman, TX. I visited there and fell in love with the place. The problem is that it's just so friggin' expensive! I'll have to take out some loans to go there, even with the financial aid they've offered me.\n\nThe University of North Texas (UNT) is my second choice, but it comes in at a distant second. It has a lot of nice toys, but I hate the living atmosphere. I'm from a rural area, and the thought of attending a college with over 10 times more people than live in my home town makes me SICK. It's like a d*** termite mound! From a practical standpoint, though, it beats AC hands-down. It's much cheaper, and I wouldn't have to transfer again to get my master's degree.\n\nIn other words, I'm in that cliche dilemma many college students face: follow my head to the practical choice (UNT), or follow my heart and go where I truly want to (AC). Your thoughts?\n\n(P.S. I've already been accepted to both, so that isn't a factor.)

Since you are going to be a minister, you must know how to pray to God and I assume you have a personal relationship with Jesus. What does He say?  Which school does God give you peace in your heart to go? If you have a calling from above to become a minister, He shall lead the way. If He tells you to choose the expensive school, keep praying and you'll see all the financial need being provided in time.\nGod bless and hope you find out soon.


i find myself at home often with nothing to do! maybe you guys can help me find something fun and easy to do w/my time!! thanks in advance!

The other anwser was unacceptable so I submit this: You are obviously very young and havent discovered what life is all about(very few of us do). Once you find an interest you are truly passionate about(not boys) you will find little time to be bored. One hint: you very seldom can identify any worth-while things on tv to become really interested in. One of the most rewarding activites in life is to care for people in need but my daughters would say 'aw dad, thats dorky and so not cool.'. But if you ever really try you will find true fulfilment comes with this list of activites: Feed the hungry, provide for the poor, cloth the naked, care for the sick. Theres no time to be bored.


Tomkat and Brooke Shields both had their babies today. That is funny.

Maybe when their older, they'll fall in love!


its a question worth asking ourselves and answering..... coz it is the young generation...who have to change the system for our own betterment.. for our kids.. for our sucessors.. for our future!!!!!

The biggest hurdle to entering politics is money.\nNot at the local level - you can run a campaign there\nfor a few thousand dollars.\n\nBut even State Legislative races can cost 10s of thousands,\nsome State Senate races have run into the hundreds of thousands.\n\nAnd to run for Congress takes $1 million minimum. That means $10,000 every week for the two years you are serving in Congress. That's a lot of money to beg for.\n\nIf we had public financing of elections, I believe it would become a lot more attractive option for many people.


i want to know which abbreviations to look out for to ensure a good quality movie. maybe also which ones to stay away from so i don't waste time. any help will be appreciated. thanks

You should get:\n.mpg\n.mpeg\n.avi\n\nMost files will be in .avi, usually in the comment box under the torrent there will be screenshots of the movie so you can decide to see what you think.


let's say that you killed a human being and got jailed for 20 years, but you still feel guilty. how do you relieve yourself?

Guilt should stay with you, at least in some measure.  That's guilt's purpose - to make you regret your actions, to make you want to change for the better, and to teach you compassion for people that you have or would have hurt.  \n\nHowever, it is understandable to want to ease the pain of guilt and find a way to use it as a motivator for something constructive.  In that respect, some people would say "religion," some would say "prayer," some would say "meditation."  Those can help for some, but those mainly focus on changing who we are inside.\n\nIdeally, I think that people should also find a way to do something for society that is in some way related to their crime or the person(s) that were harmed.  Like if someone harmed or killed a child, I think they should look for a way to do something for their local schools or Little League or something like that.  If the victim was an old person, maybe they could do something for a local seniors' home or center.  If the victim was someone that did things as a community volunteer, they could find an opportunity to be a volunteer.\n\nOf course there would be some circumstances where someone would have to really think hard to find an answer that works.  For example, if the person had molested a child, then obviously they shouldn't look for a way to work where there are children around.\n\nIt's a worthwhile way to make amends to one's community and whatever group their victim would identify with, it can just take some time to figure out exactly how to best go about it.


Im agnostic. I support no religion. I hate some more than others though, feel free to judge me for that, its a common feature of religious wackos.\n\nThere are many reasons I hate Islam but one has to do with the Islamic Shariah right to kill woman who the killer thinks or is claiming to be "dishonorable".\n\nNotice the word. Its not adultery. For example, a woman named Norma Khouri has a great book about the murder of her friend by her father. She never had sex with the catholic man her brother saw her with, but it didnt matter, she was seen with him drinking coffee.\n\n"Honor killing is not Islamic!! Nothing to do with Islam!" Whoever writes this reply will get my Islamic anti-prayers (curses) against your soul. What could be more disgusting than to enable this practice to continue by apologizing for it. \n\nThe only way this stops is popular condemnation yet ignorant fools apologize for this and aid in the supression of dissenting voices. THIS SURELY IS AN ISLAMIC PRACTICE.

Glad to answer you,\nI am a Muslim girl, i have many friends from boys as i have from girls. \n\nI would like to ensure that There is no mention of Honor killing in the Qur'an or Hadiths. Honor killing, in Islamic definitions, refers specifically to extra-legal punishment by the family against the woman, and is forbidden by the Sharia (Islamic law). \nReligious authorities disagree with extra punishments such as honor killing and prohibit it, so the practice of it is a cultural issue. \nBut SOME Muslim men use Islam to justify honor killing even though there is no support for honor killing in Islam.\n Please Check the following site to know more about it:\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honor_killing#In_countries_with_Islamic_law\n\n I hope you understood the difference between the Islam and SOME of the Muslims actions.


Would you rather own a "Ranger", "Skeeter", or "Triton"?\n\nOr own a "Stratus" or "Alumacraft", "Lund" ; AND have great fishing skills?\n\nDo you think the fish you catch know the difference between a "Ranger" boat and a "Lund" boat?\n\nIsn't perhaps your GEAR(rods, reels, electronic's, ETC), even more important than owning a "top of the line" name-brand boat?\n\nI currently own 2 boats(flats:"Carolina Skiff" & bass:"Lund") and have won quite a few tourneys in them. \n\nIn the tourneys i've participated in, the "Ranger", Stratus", "Skeeter", "Triton", "Nitro", guys lose & win with the same regularity that people with off-brands do. \n\nIt would seem that some believe the amount you paid for your boat equals your skills as an angler.\n\nWhats your take on the subject? good fish'n!

FISHING SKILLS -- \n\nJesus didn't have a Ranger.


the people learning chinese is equal to those learning japanese? why they learning chinese or japanese? which foreign language(any one in this world is ok) will u choose to learn?

Let me revise your question. Is it better to learn Chinese or Japanese? If this is what you are asking, it really depends on how you'll use the language.\nIn terms of population, there are much much more people in the whole world speaking Chinese than Japanese.\nMany job opportunities have out-sourced to China. Many people are learning the language for this reason.


I have bad eating habits!!!! \n\nCan someone tell me some good meals to eat for lunch and some healthy snacks in between meals! \n\nand what type of foods to stay away from

I think that you should start including more fruits, veggies, and whole grains into your diet. Drinking tons of water will also help.\n\nCereal is a good start for breakfast. Cornflakes, Special K, and Cheerios are really good cereals to eat. Try not to buy the cereals that are sugar coated (like Frosted Flakes), or that have a cartoon character on the front.\n\nFor lunch, try eating more salads, using light dressing (if at all). Vinegar based dressings are another good option to try. \n\nTry staying away from the obvious junk foods, like cookies, ice cream, and chips.


I just didnt know that, guess size dont matter.

Are you sure they were all his? hehe j/k \nSize doesn't matter in making babies.. Sperms do.\nSIZE DOES MATTER when bringing her the pleasure :)

Last night I was tired and got a crticial on this section with some of my questions. Just wanted to apologize for including ALL Chritians in what I said. I did mean what I said about most Christians, but I do know that not all people that believe in the Bible are out to change and save others, and do accept people the way they are right now. I do know and have friends that believe the bible but don't condemn me to hell and don't believe that my believes are based in untruth. I do mean what I said, but should not have included everyone that is religious and believes in the Bible. I believe everyone has good intentions at heart, and just don't get how hurtful it is so try and save people with the truth because they are going to hell for following the beliefs in their own heart.

I have found in this forum, you'd better write what you mean or get tortured for it.  I agree with you that some Christians think that it is their duty to save everyone's soul because they consider themselves safe.  I think the world would be a much happier place for us all if people would stop trying to change others and focus on themselves.  God is the only true judge and if people would just let him do his work and stop interfering.  No harm, no foul you are human and obviously someone out there pushed your buttons. There will always be people that offer help/advice when you didn't ask for it.  Learn to ignore them and just walk away.


MY gf that i lob soo much and have gone out for 1 year and 4 months has broken up with me cuz she said i was such a nerd..... :(....this was after i told her i was gona take an extra AP class going toward my college credits.....so thats a total 3 AP classes....this hurts so much.....wth does she want a stupid guy.....wat do you think?

You may not be able to see yourself without your kitten now, but down the line, you will be just fine. Keep on studying and look for a gf who respects your efforts.


A friend of mine has told me this on several occasions, is this true?

It depends.  \n\nIn Genesis, divination seems to be okay with YHVH and treated as a normal activity.\nhttp://bible1.crosswalk.com/OnlineStudyBible/bible.cgi?passage=ge+30:27&version=niv&context=1&showtools=1\nhttp://bible1.crosswalk.com/OnlineStudyBible/bible.cgi?passage=ge+44:5&version=niv&context=1&showtools=1\nhttp://bible1.crosswalk.com/OnlineStudyBible/bible.cgi?passage=ge+44:15&version=niv&context=1&showtools=1\n\nIts treated similarly in Numbers 22 & 23\nhttp://bible1.crosswalk.com/OnlineStudyBible/bible.cgi?passage=nu+22:7&version=niv&context=1&showtools=1\nhttp://bible1.crosswalk.com/OnlineStudyBible/bible.cgi?passage=nu+23:23&version=niv&context=1&showtools=1\n\nHowever, in many many other places its a distinct no-no.  Its equated with rebellion, paganism, and uncleanliness.\nhttp://bible1.crosswalk.com/OnlineStudyBible/bible.cgi?passage=le+19:26&version=niv&context=1&showtools=1\nhttp://bible1.crosswalk.com/OnlineStudyBible/bible.cgi?passage=de+18:10&version=niv&context=1&showtools=1\nhttp://bible1.crosswalk.com/OnlineStudyBible/bible.cgi?passage=de+18:14&version=niv&context=1&showtools=1\nhttp://bible1.crosswalk.com/OnlineStudyBible/bible.cgi?passage=jos+13:22&version=niv&context=1&showtools=1\nhttp://bible1.crosswalk.com/OnlineStudyBible/bible.cgi?passage=1sa+15:23&version=niv&context=1&showtools=1\nhttp://bible1.crosswalk.com/OnlineStudyBible/bible.cgi?passage=2ki+17:17&version=niv&context=1&showtools=1\nhttp://bible1.crosswalk.com/OnlineStudyBible/bible.cgi?passage=2ki+21:6&version=niv&context=1&showtools=1\nhttp://bible1.crosswalk.com/OnlineStudyBible/bible.cgi?passage=2ch+33:6&version=niv&context=1&showtools=1\nhttp://bible1.crosswalk.com/OnlineStudyBible/bible.cgi?passage=isa+2:6&version=niv&context=1&showtools=1\n\nBut why this discrepancy?\n\nThe answer lies in Micah 3 and Ezekiel 13:\nhttp://bible1.crosswalk.com/OnlineStudyBible/bible.cgi?passage=eze+13:23&version=niv&context=1&showtools=1\nhttp://bible1.crosswalk.com/OnlineStudyBible/bible.cgi?passage=mic+3:6&version=niv&context=1&showtools=1\n\nDivination is fine if you are righteous, but if you are not righteous its sinful.  So at this point, its a matter of whether or not you want to gamble.  Are you willing to bet YHVH that you're righteous enough to perform divination?


Well... I kind of loved them both in the first simple life... I ate a lot of crap for liking that one but I can't help myself. I do think Nicole Richie is more stylist... I love the head bands and the giant sunglasses. They make her look cartoony buts so hot. I also think I would preffer to spend the day with Nicole Richie because she seems more fun.

Sevilla and Barcelona have UEFA Cup and Champions League semi finals respectively this week. So this suspension due to terrible weather may benefit them with an extra day's rest. However, rescheduling the game is posing the major problems because of the fact that it's a WC year and so all seasons must end earlier than normal. La Liga season ends May 14th and the rumoured day of this game is May 10th. I think that's terrible for Barca because they would end up playing 3 games in one week. (They have matches on May07th and 14th). Also the CL Finals is May17th if they make it through. This suspension also delays their hopes of clinching the title ASAP because even with a win next weekend they can no longer be crowned champions just yet. They need 5 points.

Depends on good or bad for who? Barcelona have more time to prepare for the game against Milan, and Sevilla have some rest before Schalke. So it is good for them, but bad for their opponents. \n\nIn the future however, there will be a fixture buildup, but there will be plenty of time to get that out of the way before the CL/UEFA Cup finals (if they progress).


The current system in any country is Master or Royalty, Nobles or Taskmasters, and finally the peasants or slaves.\nThe slaves out number the Master and Taskmasters 10,000 to 1, yet they still follow their unfair rules and laws.\nWhy?

because it's the elite that maintain power and they don't wan't to give it up.  It's a closed society and they want to keep it that way.  They are biased, judgmental people and they protect each other.  They don't want to deal with common folk like you and I.


I was thinking of this question in reference to the Baha'i Faith. What do you let influence you when you search for religious truth? Nobody has perfectly clear, unbiased judgement, so how do you judge? knowledge? gut? heart? logic? your interpretation of holy writings? your religious leaders interpretation? a combo?\nOh and FYI to another post: I looked it up- Baha'i Faith is not the second fastest growing religion, but the second most wide spread (somebody got it twisted): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bah%C3%A1'%C3%AD_Faith

I think Frat and Saintrose have the right ideas.  Read everything, study it, compare it to what you believe.  Then pray earnestly about it and God will guide you.  In fact, that's how I became a Baha'i -- I read a bunch of stuff & got so excited by what I was reading that I started copying down (by hand....) sentences that I wanted to remember.  I wound up with 12 pages.  And I prayed a lot... I just couldn't (can't) stay away!

According to the U.S. Supreme Court, would allowing Martin to use a cart "fundamentally alter the nature" of a golf tournament?  Why or why not?

No, because golf is about hitting a ball in the fewest number of strokes to get it into a hole, not about walking the golf course.


My dad once kicked over the altar.\n\nWe had a member named Rita Long, and one day the preacher said to open our hymnals and "Read-a-long" and I said, "What about Rita Long?"  So when I realized that her name sounded that way, I started laughing and couldn't stop!\n\nI don't mean to be disrespectful.  Just make me laugh!

My dad is a Pastor for three churches in the black hills of south Dakota, he has made many misprints in his 32 years in the ministry! for instance in the bulletin: (from a list of cleaning supplies needed) instead of toilet bowl cleaner he put "bowel cleaner" and (for our college ministry called Hope For The Future) it read "there will be no Hope For The Future after next week" one time instead of saying he may be seated for the next hymn, he said "you may be heated for the next sin" those are just the tip of the ice berg!!!!

There are a lot of things that piss people's off when shopping online. The most common ones are those related to speed, privacy, security..etc. You name it, the fact is that nobody can tell me with certainty what is 'that' little thing that make you give up and visit another site.

After looking around and adding the site to my favourites for later purchase, or having just made one, leaving and they have a pop-up urging you not to leave their site.  It's 100% sure I will write them an e-mail informing that is why I will never use their service again or want to cancel my order.


I currently have plenty of friends, but as a gay guy I have very few gay friends. It's generally because I feel more comfortable in the company of straight friends. I do have a number of gay friends who's friendship I enjoy and value, but I've yet to meet a gay guy who shares the same interests/humour etc as me. In a pathetic attempt to fill this void, I was wondering if there were any guys out there who felt much the same way as myself? If you are, you're welcome to email me. If your not gay guy but have similar interests, you're also welcome to email.

I love horror films, indie films, and most of modern art (mainly my own). But electronica, I can't say. I like most music, but I'm mainly into heavy metal.

I would like to get into the sport and I would like a "good" bike.  I was looking into bikes like Specialized, Kona, and Cannondale.  Which type and/or model would be the best to buy with a reasonable price.

It really depends on 'what' type of riding you'll be doing and how much of it.  If you're just planning on being a weekend warrior and just want something decent to ride then you could get away with a lower end bike like the IronHorse Warrior or something like that.  If you're looking at seriously getting into the sport and spending some serious coin, then the options are limitless.  \n\nCheck out this site and sign up to post some questions.

Iquess what im trying to say is why we haven't had sex.

On average, if a person consumed 1,110 calaries a day and burnt off 1,500 calaries a day, how much weight would they lose (say week by week)?  Just an estimate?

Technically, you lose a pound after burning off 3,500 calories. At the rate you are suggesting, you would have burnt 400 more calories a day than you put into your body. You would *technically* lose a pound every 8.75 days. I don't know how much you weigh so I can't tell you how many calories you need to eat/not eat to lose weight. Starving yourself and working out like crazy isn't a healthy way to lose weight because eventually your body will go into "feast or famine" mode and you will stop losing weight to conserve what you do have left. Our bodies are great that way. You can lose a lot of weight at first but it isn't the kind of weight that will stay off (mostly water weight and muscle weight) once you start exercising and eating regularly. You can't starve yourself forever. Eat a healthy, balanced diet and it should fall into place for you.\n\nThe best way to lose weight is to gradually "trick" your body into getting by on less. If you stay with 1,200 calories a day, and you need to eat 2,000 to maintain your current weight, then that is 800 calories that you are burning daily, just by eating less. Add some moderate exercize that burns 300-500 calories a day and you will have burnt about 1,300 calories, just by living and being healthy. You should lose about a pound or two a week on this schedule, doing it sensibly and without starvation.\n\nRemember also that heavy exercise increases muscle mass, and that muscle mass adds poundage to you. That's good. You burn more calories with muscle than you do with fat. I wouldn't get so hung up on the numbers on the scale as I would with how clothes are fitting, what your friends are saying, etc. If you look good to your friends, and you feel okay inside about how you look, then it's a good weight. If you find yourself thinking you're unhealthy even though you're at a healthy weight, I'd seek some professional help.


that was caught in a government online sex sting? He was caught talking nasty with an agent that posed as a 14 year old girl.\nFirst I think that's funny that the government caught one of their own.I think they should throw the book at him to send a message.

I think that he should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Thankfully, there is one less child predator off the streets.

People learn calculus and biology but hardly ever use these subjects later on in life.

Because we need a foundation, and exposure to different things if we're ever going to build up some structure of intelligence and understanding of the world. We all use math, biology, english, chemistry, physics, and dozens of other things every day in our lives. Some of us are just not aware we are doing it. And can't see the relation between what we learned, and what is happening.\n\nThere may be no obvious connection at all times, but it is there. Just leave your mind open for now. How can you like or dislike something you've never experienced or been exposed to? Is it better to have had the experience, and then made up your mind on your own? Ignorance may be bliss, but I assure you that a lifetime of ignorance of things leads to a very limited understanding of the world.


According to College Football News the greatest college football team ever is the 2005 Texas Longhorns.  I think they are probably right, but you never know.

Winrar is good product to use!!\nThere is product u can compress from 2GB to 10mb...just like u said!!!\n\nIt's called "KGB Archiver".  This is one most superme compression i ever know..u can compress from GB to MB or maybe KB!!!\n\nHowever, it takes a lot of time to compress it\nFor example, if u have 2GB software, u want to compress into 2mb...it at least 30 hrs to do it....it depends on ur system...(the better system u have, the less time u will have to wait)\n\nThe KGB system will take 90% of ram to do it!!!\n\nif u have slower system, it might take u a month or even year to compresss from 2GB to 2MB!!!\n\nDonwload and Description here:\n\nhttp://kgbarchiver.sourceforge.net/


Just a few racists? some right wing populists?

Listen, you ignorant person. \n\nNobody is against IMMIGRATION. Its ILLEGAL immigration thats the problem. And everybody should be upset about it, not just Republican and Democrats. To say thats racist is absurd, ignorant and morally dishonest.


Why does my girlfriend say nice things to me 1 minute then say the most hurtful things the next? Im a nice guy that has never hurt her and never would so why does she make me feel like shit? she says she will never tell a man she loves him and that there is always someone better out there. When i tell her i love her or show her affection she says im stupid or that she hates me then 10 minutes later she holding my hand and hugging and kissing me its really really confusing!!

she is confusing the best thing i can say is she sounds like shes scared of commitment she seems like she doesnt want to get to close to u incase u hurt her mayb shes been hurt in the past. she likes u alot trust me but she doesnt want u to think she is to overkeen on u but then again she doesnt want u to leave her or to dislike her thats why she shows u a bit of affection. and thats why she has got a split personality. shes is embarrased when u tell her u love her i dont think she means to hurt u. i bet if u asked her why is she like that she would say i dont know i dont mean to. some girls are just like that mayb if u treat her the way she treats u then mayb she will change or walk away but somethings gotta b done about it cause it doesnt seem right hope i helped good look


It is a web project,ASP.net 2.0 and SQLServer 2005

This is a bit difficult question cause it takes lots of factors like how many resources you have (or going to allocate for the project). Do you have a clearly defined scope of work?? System Design??? if you have answers for these then lets break to project in to phases like  feasibility study, requirement gathering, analysis, design, coding and implementation. Each phase break it in to smaller tasks like getting approvals, visiting different locations etc. \n\nNow estimate number of days your resources going to spend on each task depending on the level of experiance the resources have. Here you need consider their previous experience and keep gaps for paper work and other manual processors.\n\nOnce you arrive on total number of days, then it is easy, you calculate what is your man day cost and add your profit margin. Then multiple Man Days * charge per day, that is the price estimation and number of days is the time estimation. Make sure you have buffers in case of something goes wrong in a phase. Size of the buffer needs to justify and realistic.


I have gotten a few best answers and someone said i should run for president and i think i will, who would vote for me, i would ship all the illegals back to where ever the hell they came from, make welfare folks get a job or go without welfare and every wednesday is margarita day oh and dont forget topless mondays, VOTE SUNSHINE FOR PRESIDENT

i would because you would be there everyday becasue the sunshine will be availible untill 4.5 more billion years. I am all for female presidents because it is not what is between the legs, but what is in your heart!


Yes, I really do. Because of the experiences with the afterlife I've had there are some major simillarities. But what a lot of people don't understand about psychics and mediums is that its not 100%. Sometimes you can't hear what they're trying to tell you. Or sometimes a person is closed and doesn't want to know even if they say they do.

I am reffering to the EA sports baseball video game. Its probably the best game out there, but they didn't make one this year.

989 bought exclusive rights for third party games in responce to EA buying exclusive football rights for their Madden franchise. This means that only first party game makers (owners of the actual console like Microsoft and Sony) and 989 can make baseball games for the next I think 5 years. \n\nUnfortunately, I agree MVP was awesome and its going to hurt to not have it. I suggest buying the PC version of the game and downloading 2006 updates on www.mvpmods.com


What court would you file it in.How would you go about it.Sometimes lawyers won't take a case unless they are going to get alot of money out of it.This cause is more about seeking justice for the victim

Yes you can do anything legal without a lawyer it is just a matter of going to your local courthouse and going to the law library in there and tell them what you are trying to do and most likely the will give you a book with a lot of different forms in it and you find the forms you need copy them and file them with the court as directed in a timely manner but follow all the guidelines and make sure you have all your evidence because the smalllest error and the will dismiss your case and you will have to start all over again


I'm highly interested in investing money into china and china markets, how do I go about doing this?  I do not want to be scammed and I would rather not visit the country just yet.

Some foreign companies have their stocks listed on US stock exchanges. These stocks are classified under "ADR's" or American Depository Receipts. Or you can buy mutual funds that hold a portfolio of stocks. Also some brokers allow you the flexibility of buying foreign stocks which are specified with a ticker symbol. Figure out what you want to invest in, then go from there.

how can i tell a guy i like him, if he is a friend of mine. what if he doesn't like me won't he look at me differently afterward? Tell me some jokes to tell him, or some other nice things to do, thanks

Tell him you like him but don't go up to him and just say Hey I like you... that might catch him off gaurd and he might say something he'd regret, just walk up and ask him who he likes, and tell him you know someone who does and she wants you to ask him out for her and when he asks who say me. Than see his reaction if it's kinda mean it means you caght him off gaurd and he'll probably try to fix it later and you should let him.


I was looking for records about a person in my friends life that he had doubts about. He was told so many different things by this person and the end results in going to court never seemed to fit the crime.

Records are generally never free, because it costs a lot of money to store them and find them. Also, not many records are available online, except through private companies, who charge much more for the service than the government body ever would. As for whether it would be available online at all, it depends on what records you need and where you live.


can it be proven?\nare we stardust?\nDoest that mean we could do space travel with just our boddies?

We don't detect amino acids in stars directly, they need a much cooler environment to form and stay together.  We have found them in asteroids and comets within our own solar system, and have observed them in clouds of insterstellar gas.\n\nThe "we are all made of stardust" comment comes from the relization that all of the elements heavier than hydrogen and helium are created in the cores of stars, or in the violent deaths of some stars.  All the elements that make up you, me, this planet, everything were formed inside of stars and then blown out upon the cosmos to be reincorporated into new structures.  Kind of neat actually.

marry mel gibson- esp when he wears his skirt in brave heart\ndate johnny depp - he's weird and he might be a fire cracker in bed \ndump ashton kutcher- he looks like a little boy


i would suggest you call your local inspector and ask them.  it varies from state to state and at times city to city and town to town.  he would be your best bet to ask.  now if you hold an IBEW card you can work as a out of state contractor.  that too is different from state to state because some states won't allow you to work as an out of state contractor until all there union works are on jobs.


Our beloved scientists have projected almost everything as a carcinogen. Now we have to find out what is not a carcinogen.

500 years ago, Paracelsus, an early chemist, doctor and alchemist (which, at the time, was still a going concern) wrote (in German):\n\n"Alle Ding' sind Gift und nichts ohn' Gift; allein die Dosis macht, das ein Ding kein Gift ist."\n\nThis means:\n"All things are poison and nothing (is) without poison; only the dose makes that a thing is no poison." \n\nWhatever science may think of some of his stranger pursuits, the wisdom of this statement is undisputable.  Every substance will kill you if you ingest enough of it, even water.  (And, no, I'm not talking about drowning.)\n\nAny substance that can damage a DNA molecule can be a carcinogen.  This includes nearly every molecule, again, including water.  The only completely non-carcinogenic substances I can think of would be the noble gasses (helium, neon, etc.)  They are chemically inert and do not readily react with much of anything.  Even that's not completely safe because radon is a radioactive noble gas (so easily a carcinogen) and some of the others probably have radioactive isotopes.\n\nIt's worth noting that despite the earlier "answer", natural things are full of carcinogens.  Plants are filled with pesticides of their own creation.  Why not?  Plants don't like being eaten any more than you would.  Natural pesticides are simply the result of their evolution.  These pesticides are designed to, yes, KILL animals.  That includes you.  Of course, we don't eat the ones that have enough of those chemicals to kill us in the short term, and only a few of our foods (such as, I'm told, Okra, which supposedly has the highest levels of natural pesticides of any food regularly eaten by humans) have enough pesticides to be really worth avoiding.  Nonetheless, the chemicals aren't intended to be good for you and some of them do indeed contribute to cancer.\n\nFunny irony:  Plants grown "naturally" or "organically" have more natural pesticides than those grown by supposedly bad, unnatural modern techniques.  "Organically" grown plants are exposed to more insects, and the plants respond by pumping up excess carcinogens and other poisons into their tissues.  Plants protected by artificial, external pesticides have less trouble with pests, so don't produce as many poisons.  Guess what, you cannot wash off internal, natural pesticides like you can the artificial ones humans add.\n\nAgain, the dosage of these natural pesticides is still usually too small for concern.  Still, if you want my advice, avoid overpriced "organic" foods.\n\nRemember the Alar scare from quite a few years back?  Everyone worried about the Alar on apples being carcinogenic.  Everyone ignoring the plain fact that the supposedly dangerous aspect of Alar was that it broke down into unsymmetrical dimethylhydrazine (UDMH).  UDMH is found in much higher doses in supermarket mushrooms than found on treated apples.  The treated apples were banned, the mushrooms remain on the shelves to this day, protected by the strange and irrational sense of safety the phrase "all natural" gives to people.\n\nMind you, I'm not saying the mushrooms are dangerous.  They aren't.  Neither were the treated apples.  The dose makes the poison and neither has enough to worry about.  The news media likes scare stories, so it prints them without much regard for the facts of the issues.


acctually i feel      it    but  i didnt consider it  as love tell me

It sucks, thats what.  I've been there, so I know what ya mean, and don't know either!

I've read that there are no carbon deposits found inside the pyramids. What did the ancients use for light?

Nor inside ANY of the ancient egyptian monuments made prior to the Roman invasion in 52 B.C. The egyptians used another mechanism:Mirrors!\nYes they used a complicated system of mirrors to reflect the day light all the way inside the huge monuments they've built, which were siometimes several hundereds of feet high (like the pryamids, which aremore than 80 pyramids, the most famous of which,the biggest, but not the oldest, are the 3 giza pyramids) or far below the ground(tutemoses grave and other similarly fabulous graves in valley of the kings, or dug several meters deep inside solid granite mountains (like "Dir El Bahary" temple of hatshipsut)\nYes, as agatha christie said,they did it with mirrors :)

I think it would be a good one, because cigarettes kill more people than alcohol.

I think the big problem is drinking and driving, we need to one raise the driving age to 18 as well.  I think the effect wouldn't be that noticible because everyone over 18 already drinks, they would just get less under age drinking citations.  Every other country except Canada that I can think of allows drinking at 18, or in many tird worlds there is no drinking age.  If people are responsible and we use Europe as a guideline it can be something that isn't a big deal.


I understand that the purpose of encryption in Windows XP professional is to prevent people who get unauthorized access to your hard disk from reading files. But typically Windows XP only encrypts individual files or folders. Is it possible to use the encryption feature of Windows XP Professional to encrypt an entire hard drive?

does the number of people visiting a website make a difference?

The number of visits is probably barely an issue.  Yes, keywords are considered, but there is so much more involved.\n\nFor instance, links to a site are considered to be a good measure of how people view a web site.  If a site is valuable, then it will have a lot of people linking to it.  The more links, the higher it will climb, especially on Google.\n\nThe link below provides a basic summary of search engine ranking.


Because that's where the umbilical cord  hooks to for nourishment, right?

no its impossible because your belly button is a mark left after the umblical cord is cut,the umblical cord facilitates the movement of food molecules from the mother to the unborn child and waste materials from the unborn child to the mother,so for a person to be without one means they did not feed and its not possible

We have African Americans Jewish Americans Mexican Americans what ever as some whose parents are both of mixed races I am tired of try to classify my self I am just American and what would be wrong with saying I am American Irish or what ever?

What's ironic is that many times those equivocating hyphenations are seeking 'equality' by differentiating themselves from the whole.  I've never quite understood that paradox.\n\nI think Colin Powel answered correctly when he said, "i'm not African-American, I'm American."

two of my best friends are mormens and i want to find out more aboput it.

The Church no longer, and hasn't for the better part of a century, practiced polygamy.\n\nWhen Jesus Christ lived on the earth, He organized His Church so that all people could receive His gospel and return one day to live with God, our Heavenly Father. After Jesus Christ ascended to heaven, His Apostles continued to receive revelation from Him on how to direct the work of His Church. However, after they were killed, members changed the teachings of the Church that He had established. While many good people and some truth remained, this Apostasy, or general falling away from the truth, brought about the withdrawal of the Church from the earth. The Apostle Peter prophesied that Jesus would restore His Church before His Second Coming (Acts 3:19–21).\n\nJesus Christ began to restore His Church in its fulness to the earth through the Prophet Joseph Smith in 1820. It has grown to become a worldwide Church with over 12 million members. It has the same teachings and basic organization as the Church established by Jesus in New Testament times.\n\nThe websites listed have all the information you would ever need...

I think there will be a little fuss by the media, some traffic delays, a bit of pro illegal rhetoric, but nothing substancial. Come tuesday everything will be back to normal, if it was even disturbed in the first place, and ultimately the point the pro illegal rallies wanted to make (economic power) will have been made invalid. The ecomomy won't stop, even if it *LOOKS* like there are a  lot of supporters the truth of the matter is that even if 30 million people walk out and march, there is still approx. 270 million more that aren't. I think it's just going to be a public specticle and it may in fact enrage some of the people on the fence to become anti-illegal. What's your take?  (^_^)

My take is the same as yours - a lot of hoo-ha and then back to life as we know it.  Personally, given the total reality of situation, I don't see a whole heckuva lot changing when it comes to illegal immigration.  Too many people getting too much out of it.


honey the problem is not us but you,stop being so objective and judgmental and allow the man time and space to to feel what you want


The ghvjghjvg guy just said that online he raped and drugged and eight year old i reported it but does anyone actually know what yahoos,duty of care is ?

how many war-torn, poverty stricken, geographically challenged, countries with no water, blistering heat, and no central means of communication have stable work forces? thats a more interesting question.

My girlfriend is looking to open up a small business in designing floral arrangements. She is looking to ask the government for money but needs a sample of a proposal to ask for federal money. Can anyone one out there assist us?

It is hard to find grants to start a business. Unlike the myths that some perpetuate, federal government and even private foundations hardly give grant money for a for-profit business. \n\nAnd yes, grants mean PAPERWORK - lots and lots of it, that is why a cottage industry of grant writers was born. Instead of exerting futile effort in finding for grants and grant writers, I suggest you direct your activities to raising funds from friends, families or bank loans.\n\nNonetheless, 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 a for-profit venture.\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. But still the info is the same - hardly any grants for starting a for profit business.\n\nEven SBA does NOT give out grants. From the SBA website http://www.sba.gov/expanding/grants.html... \n\n"The U.S. Small Business Administration does not offer grants to start or expand small businesses, although it does offer a wide variety of loan programs. (See http://www.sba.gov/financing for more information) While SBA does offer some grant programs, these are generally designed to expand and enhance organizations that provide small business management, technical, or financial assistance. These grants generally support non-profit organizations, intermediary lending institutions, and state and local governments."\n\nMost 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 \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\nFor private grants, you may want to check the Foundation Center's Foundation Grants for Individuals Online. It's a subscription based website ($9.95 per month) but their opening blurb only says that the database is ideal for "students, artists, academic researchers, libraries and financial aid offices." Entrepreneurs are apparently not one of them, so I take it they also don't have listings of private foundations who give grants to would-be entrepreneurs.\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

Rooney injury seems bad last game versus chelsea, does anyone know about this injury? will he play in world cup? and what about terry, he also seems feel something wrong on his right foot since first half.\ni am so curious about this..


When you think of the color black, do you think of negativity? Don't you think of death or something bad. Aren't African Americans brown? Why would they ever want to be referred to as "black"? And does it bother you, if you are? Maybe we have all been brainwashed to think that anything black is negative. Hmm, just a thought.

black is my fave color. its cool. its not negative, its black. its simple, its beautiful

When does the vote take place?  When would it become effective?  In other words, when would illegal immigrants be "relieved?"  Would they be relieved as soon as the bill passes?  Or do other things have to happen first?

You can't put a timeline on something like that, it would have to be ongoing, not to mention immigrants still sneaking in the country.  I could literally see a new federal agency heading this project for as long as the country is in existence.

What is the name of the song that the band Sigur Ros closes all of their shows with?  i've seen them three times on their most recent tour and it's been the same song each time.

I didn't see the last tour, so I'm not sure which one it would be.  Saw the tours from the previous 2 albums and  they definitely didn't use the same song to close with... so you might want to just search for a setlist from the Takk tour.  I know rabid fans gobble them up and post them or sell them.  Good luck...

anyone know why randy savage is like the only ex wwf star to never be brought back for an appearance, hall of fame or dvd? i mean look at it..... piper, bret, hogan, warrior, jake, road warrior, they all got brought back in some way. so why not savage? he was argueably the biggest wwf star in late 80s/early 90s behind hogan.

Well, I know he had a real fallout with Hogan, he even threatened to beat him up if he saw him ( thsi is real life threats, not the ring antics ).\n\nWhen Hogan went to TNA, Savage was also employed, but Hogan didnt want to wrestle for TNA, only be a "creative" role. But obvioulsy, creative roles in wrestling, if your name is Hogan, wont sell seats, so they canned him 2 days after he was there. Macho Man walked out, or got fired from TNA around the same time. \n\nSince Hogan is not around the WWE currently, you may see Macho Man come back for next Wrestlemania...is he not in their hall of fame yet? That is usually when you see the old folks come back around.


waht's your best film of all time, only your top film.\n\nmine is saving private ryan.

The Ghost and Mrs. Muir.  Great classic black and white movie with Gene Tierney and Rex Harrison.  If you haven't seen it and you like old black and whites you should rent it.  It's a great enjoyable classic!


Husband and I separated, for a year, got back together, stayed together for just over a year, and now he wants divorce, I am soooooo lonely though. He doesn't want to work it out, no counseling or nothing. How long should I wait to date?

As soon as you are ready.  I started dating the same month that my Ex moved out.  I never regreted it and I found a wonderful man.  Go for it.


I have lot of MP3 files extracted from uncopyrighted video sources which I would like to burn on a DVD rather than a CD to play in any DVD player other than my computer, just like we burn and play music CDs containing MP3 files. If idea is feasible, how do I go about creating such a DVD on my DVD-RW. Thanks in advance.

ya baby you can but u need dvd writer in your pc \njust use the nero software to write the dvd


Who should be his Vice-President? I was thinking maybe Vin Deisel or Tony Danza

YES....OH YES! That is the best idea! He could round house the states back into shape! YOU are awesome!


Not just some crazy riot in the streets, but a revolution with stated goals and objectives. Mainly ridding ourselves of an over dominant upper class.

I say yes indeed. bush and his pack of thieves and liars need to be relegated to the status of sewer cleaners. Any time you have a bunch of stinking lawyers running a business or country, you are gonna have theft and corruption. So bring on the revolution.
