I recently switched computers, and I want all my Firefox extensions, bookmarks, and themes on my new computer without having to re-download the themes and extensions and writing down the adresses of all my bookmarks.\nAre there any files I can simply copy to the new machine?\n\nIf it helps, the old one is running Win98, and the new one is WinXP.

I have W98 and WXP and Firefox.\n\nBookmarks:\nLook for file "bookmarks.html" which could be in any location depending on how your W98 was setup.  On one of my machines it's in C: WINDOWS Application Data Mozilla Firefox Profiles t3srrukp.default  Copy that file to a similar location, notwithstanding that XP will place your Firefox Profiles folder somewhere else.  Just look for where it places your new bookmarks.html file.\n\nExtensions:\nLook for *.xpi file, if you still have them.  Even if you found the extension installs, you'd still have to set them up on the new box.\n\nThemes:\nSame issue but I don't recall the file suffix, sorry.


Traveling in a car at the speed of sound, you blow your horn at the car in front of you also traveling at the speed of sound. Will the car in front of you hear the horn? Will he give you the finger if he does?

The sound will reach the car in front of you.  Although it may seem as though it would not, considering that you are already traveling at the speed of sound, therefore you may think the sound waves go as the same speed as your car therefore not traveling any faster than you are and not getting to the car in front of you.  However, this is not the case.  This can be explained using Einstein's theory of relativity.  Einstein describes "frames of reference" and in your frame of reference, you are not moving; everything else is moving.  Everything in your car is stationary relative to everything else, this is why you don't feel like you're moving, and if you throw a book sideways, it doesn't fly backwards with the speed your vehicle is moving, this is because the car, yourself, and the book are all moving with the same speed your car is moving. They are all stationary relative to each other. When the sound waves are created, they move in all directions at the speed of sound (331 m/s), so in your frame of reference, they would be moving at 331 m/s away from the car in all directions.  This means from the frame of reference of a person standing outside of your car, the sound waves would actually appear to be moving at twice the speed of sound.  This is just like if you threw a ball forward out from the car at 15 m/s, it would appear to an outsider to be moving at that speed plus the speed of sound(well in a vacuum anyway, or before air resistance took over) To use a better example of these frames of reference, you know that the earth is rotating.  It is rotating at 1070 mi/hr at the equator, yet it seems not to be moving at all, it is our frame of reference when we are standing 'still.' the speed of sound is no different traveling in different directions on the earth because of this rotation.\n\nand yes, he would probably give you the finger. I mean, he is going at the speed of sound, how impatient are you?

I think it is the best of the new group of 'alien invader' type shows...

Surface is doing quite well in the ratings and is continued to return with new episodes in January.


An artist with a history of making history, MADONNA, in a performance of a lifetime, has made the role of Evita completely her own. \nA renaissance woman in the truest sense of the term -- singer, composer, producer, actor, executive, humanitarian, and, most recently, mother -- there is nothing, it seems, that Madonna cannot do. It is her passionate commitment to excellence, her complete involvement in every essential aspect of her art, her career, and her life, that has made Madonna one of a handful of the most innovative, influential, and inspiring artists of our time, and it is these same qualities that Madonna has brought to bear in the film and the music of Evita. \n\nMadonna's history towers over the chronicles of popular culture, comprising a list of First, Best, Fastest, and Longest that stands as a monument to one woman's exceptional ability and extraordinary ambition. From 1982, when a cocky, confident, and coolly self-assured 24-year-old Detroit native first stepped onto the stage to lip-synch her debut single "Everybody" at New York's Danceteria, it was clear that something wholly original had happened. \n\nMadonna has broken every available radio, video, sales, and box-office record, racking up no fewer than 29 Top Ten singles, 11 of those reaching No. 1. Her most recent chart topper, 1994's "Take A Bow," lodged in the top spot for seven consecutive weeks and beat the performance of her 1984 breakthrough, "Like A Virgin," which had a six-week run at the top. All told, Madonna's No. 1 and No. 2 singles have spent a total of 40 weeks at the top of the charts -- almost a solid year of uninterrupted hits. In one period in the late eighties, she racked up six straight Top 5 singles, beating the Beatles' old record for back-to-back chart toppers. The smash single "You Must Love Me," written especially for the film Evita by Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice, is one of the fastest rising singles in the history of Warner Bros. Records. \n\nOf eleven Madonna albums, every one has reached the Top 15, all but one has made it into the Top 10, and seven have attained Top 5 status. Every one of that eleven-album catalogue (Evita will make it an even dozen) has sold over a million copies, two have sold over three million, and five have sold over four million. Madonna's international album sales are estimated at topping 100 million units. \n\nPivotal as recorded music is to Madonna's unparalleled success, she has had more videos, played more often, than any other artist in the history of the MTV network. Multi-awarded for these videos, Madonna has made a ground-breaking contribution to the video art form, as she has in her unstoppable sell-out music tours that combine music, theatrics, spectacle, and dazzling charisma and have packed stadiums globally for nearly two decades. \n\nMadonna's film roles began with instant success as wacky Susan in Desperately Seeking Susan, leading to starring in Dick Tracy and joining Woody Allen's exclusive repertory for Shadows and Fog. Madonna's intriguing documentary performance in Truth or Dare was an in-your-face personal journey that intrigued audiences and critics alike and led to her unforgettable debut at the 1991 Cannes Film Festival.


With more & more songs released by Mr.Tupac Shakur it seem's as though he is reading up on whats happening & talking about it in his songs. Is he really alive or his music was intended for the 'future'? aka M A K A V E L I

http://www.celebritymorgue.com/tupac-shakur/  I found this on a website that I would never go to but I remembered someone telling me about I looked it up for you!  Please don't go there if you don't want to see a gross dead photo of Tupac!  Who knows if it's real!  Looks real to me!  Just goes to show you how precious life is!  Live it well!  Take Care & God Bless!


I clean, do laundry, answer email, play games with my daughter like operation, scattergories etc...or we like to play with our dogs. What do you like to do?


These terms are usually found after the name of very important Islamic personages such as Aisha, Umar, Abu Bakr, etc.

'radiallahu an' means 'Allah's blessings be on him' while 'radiallahu anha' means the same thing, only for women i.e. 'Allah's blessings be on her'. the addition of 'ha' signifies female gender...\n\nfor instance, 'Abu Bakr radiallahu an' in contrast with 'Aisha radiallahu anha'\n\nblessings here means Allah's acceptance on everything that they do


i bought a Hitachi Deskstar 160gb harddrive. I succesfully installed it but i can only use it to 130gig. I went to bios and tryed to change the harddrive setting to the max but it will keep changing back to 130gig. i think its because the IDE on my motherboard don't support such big harddrive. Is there a software you can download to make it support bigger harddrives? or the only solution is to get a new IDE card? Thx

it's the limitation on older ide controllers.\n\nit sounds like you have an older motherboard.\nchances are your motherboard needs a bios update.\nupdate the bios carefully... and see if it will support 48bit LBA.  make sure to update the driver as well.


but now i dont and he still likes me.... what do i do to not hurt him?

Tell him.  That is the best way.  If you are nice and don't tell him, it could be misinterpreted that you like them and are shy.


i am in the army and i am deployed overseas.  i want a divorce.  under kentucky law, can i get divorced while i'm deployed?  or legally separated?

Ask the JAG office, they'll be able to advise you of your options and the proper procedures.


If electrons are all repelling each other like crazy outside the nucleus, how is it that the protons can all sit next to eachother without spontaneously breaking apart?

The strong force holds quarks together in combinations that make protons and neutrons.  It also holds the protons and neutrons together, but in a more subtle way, because protons and neutrons are color neutral.  This means that protons and neutrons don't have excess color charge (which determines the strength of the strong interaction), and by this logic shouldnt be attracted to each other.  The quarks are not in a point-like configuration, though, so each nucleon has a "dipole" and higher order moments. If you've never heard of this kind of thing, it's the same idea as the electric force holding electrically neutral atoms together to make chemical compounds.\n\nThe differences in mass between atoms and the sum of their particles is a consequence of the strong force... the strong force is not caused by the mass difference.  In fact, atoms above iron have a mass which is larger than the sum of their nucleons, while atoms below iron have mass that is smaller than the the sum of their nucleons.  That's why you can only break large atoms for energetic nuclear fission.

My sister's going to be moving in with me and I'd like to help find her a job. \n\nI'm intentionally leaving what part of the country this is, as I'd like to hear your opinions.

Well, what part of the country your in has a lot to do with prevailing pay. Also, what skills does she have?\n\nI'll assume you are not in a large city, and I'll assume she has no special skills or education.\n\n$6.00 an hour


Is there any life insurance company that will accept a person undergoing cancer treatment?

Depends on the type of cancer and how far along the treatments are.  The best bet is to contact a local life agent and give them all the information. Don't try to hide anything because it could result in a denial of payout down the road.  A local agent can talk with their underwriter to determine if they can write the policy and at what health class.


I recently installed Ubuntu and i want my computer to automatically boot to Windows XP instead of Ubuntu. How do i do this? I'm using GRUB by the way.

Edit /boot/grub/menu.lst (use 'sudo nano /boot/grub/menu.lst' or 'sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst') and change the default line to read 'default 5' or 'default saved'.  The 'default 5' option will default to boot on the 5th OS line listed in the bottom section.\n\nI usually set 'default saved' so that the last OS booted will be the default one booted.  If I boot into Windows and restart, I will default to Windows but if I boot into Ubuntu, then I will default to boot Ubuntu.  I have 3 seconds at reboot to change OS.\n\nThere is also a linux command 'grub-reboot 5' that will reboot the computer into the desired OS remotely.


i need to know what each one is with a simple description. Details aren't necessary.

The Electoral College is a group of electors who vote for the president.  The group members for each state are all the state's US House and Senate members.  There are a total of 538 members in the Electoral College.  All electors from a state must vote for the majority, although it wasn't always this way.\n\nThe popular vote is simply the measure of how people voted in the entire United States.  This does not choose the President, the Electoral College does.\n\nHope this makes sense!  Use the information that you need.


With all the latest imaging technology and NASA (and other)'s new photographs of the moon, where are the pictures of the Eagle and moon buggies? Is the resolution high enough to see them.

No the resolution is not high enough but nasa is planning a satellite to orbit the moon that can take very close up pics and show where they are.


I was released early 4 years ago. I have been trying to reestablish my license but have to do 100 hours of clinical practice in a hospital, nursing home, clinic, prior to getting them back.  I can't find anyone willing to help me due to the felony. I was not involved with the drugs, was in the car when a pick up by someone else occur so thus i was charged.  I need to know if there is any other nurses who have had similar experiences who can help me and tell me what I need to do. The board will not help me at all. Thank you

Im sorry I dont have any help for you. However, I am 26 years old and three years ago I was in a vehicle when similar circumstances occurred. Also resulted in a felony conviction. I have a bachelors degree in economics and have just applied to law schools. I know its very discouraging. I dont expect to get into any schools, but I am trying everything under the sun. If I do get into law school, I am going to make it a huge priority to help people trying to get into the workforce to be successful.


Of two love laws in Matthew 22, notably "the second" is "like unto the first": it's "law": sin & death. And since law is faulty (Hebrews 8), and "another law" produces evil concupiscence, the second of two (old/new) testaments is not law full, but grace us.

Love = Charity\n\nIf either one fails, it was NOT real love or real charity to begin with. Which is why you can always trust God, people will let you down (or beat you down).


Is it difficcult to read chinese ?? Its so different from English !

Patrick, it is extremely difficult to learn to read and write in chinese. the chinese language is not based on letters combining to form representations of phonetic sounds, like english and most other modern laguages. the chinese 'alphabet' is actually comprised of over 3,000 unique pictographs. also, they read and write their texts from right to left, a convention that is strange to those that speak english, and most of the european and slavic languages. does that help? :-)


I once had to disable Windows Installer to avoid an error with my outlook.  Now I need to enable it temporarily to install something.\n\nHelp please!

Go to Start Button > Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Services.\n\nThe Services application should display.  Scroll down to Windows Installer and double-click on it.  If you want to temporarily start Windows Installer and have it still be disabled when you reboot, click on the Start button and wait for the service to restart.  There is no need to stop the service as it will be disabled the next time you boot.


Yes, how can I prevent my infant from influenza virus meanwhile she also has allergy problem. From her nose and throat we can hear like people who have cold or flu voices. She is almost 5 months old. I have visited doctor many times and got some medicine from doctor, but it doesn't work. My baby still in cold and flu condition. please help.

The best way to help prevent influenza infection is to get an influenza vaccination each year, usually in early November. Unfortunately, immunization (administration of vaccine) against influenza is approved only for infants 6 months of age and over.\n\nUntil your infant is old enough to take vaccinations, you should look into home remedies and try to look for baby food with some of these ingrediants.  I looked up some for you:\n\n~ GINGER = best\n~ GRAPEFRUIT\n~ BASIL LEAVES\n~ GARLIC = dont know if thats good for infant but works.\n~ for more, visit link below\n\nhope i was helpful :)


Why is it that in the first ammendment they say you have the freedom of speech,but in school you get in trouble for expressing your freedom of speech?

Freedom of speech isn't an absolute.  For example you can't yell fire in a crowded  theater.  You can't make threats against people.  The Constitution protects individuals from the National Government, not the States or the Cities. \n\nThere are jurisdictions where it's a crime to swear in public.


how to identify it is dead or alive?\nunder controlled conditions, it will be eternal?

It depends on the bacterium. For E. coli (common lab bacteria) 20-30 minutes is an average doubling time, but different strains vary.\n\nI heard something somewhere about a weird form of bacteria that lives miles underground in granite formations and only divides once every ten thousand years, or something crazy like that. I can't give you a source, it's just a freaky thing off the top of my head that I haven't gone to the trouble to confirm. My contention is that if reincarnation is true, that would be the *worst* thing to come back as. So mind your karma.\n\nPart of the reason it would be the worst is that bacteria reproduce by one cell dividing into two, so as long as there are any of that strain still alive, it hasn't really died.\n\nThey can die though. In a liquid culture you can tell because of a lot of turbidity (cloudiness) some of which is from cells and some from debris from dead cells. Or, you could have agar plates that get really nasty and dried up, and most of those bacteria are probably dead. Or you could tell because they look really crappy under a microscope. If you try to streak it and grow it on a plate and it doesn't grow, it's probably dead.


There are alot on Linux but cant find any that work on windows HELP

I take it this is for educational purposes only.\n\nI believe Net Stumbler will get WEP keys for you, I generally use AIR Snort and things of that nature. Or if you have laptop try downloading LIVE CD of Whoppix.


A doosra is a particular type of delivery by an off spin bowler in the sport of cricket. The term comes from Hindi-Urdu and in this context it means "the other one". (It literally means "second" or "the second one".)\n\nThe doosra is a relatively new type of ball, developed in the late 1990s by Pakistani spinner Saqlain Mushtaq. The bowler bowls the ball with the same finger action as a normal off break, but holds the wrist turned so the back of the hand faces towards the batsman. This gives the ball spin in the opposite direction to an off break, causing it to spin from the leg side to the off side to a right-handed batsman.\n\nThe doosra is the off spinner's equivalent of the leg spinner's googly, which also spins in the opposite direction to the bowler's stock delivery.\n\nThe doosra has been used effectively by its inventor Saqlain Mushtaq and Sri Lankan Muttiah Muralitharan. Other spin bowlers have been described as using it to varying degrees, including young Pakistani Shoaib Malik. Among non-subcontinental commentators, the word "doosra" is rapidly gaining currency as either a catch-all term for a delivery by any spin bowler which behaves in an unexpected fashion or as a synonym for "mystery ball".


Of borland, gcc and TC which  is the best language to do programing? and does gcc always need linux?

GCC is the best. One it's well supported, Two it's standard compliant and three it's available on most platforms.\nIf you are on Windows try Dev C++, a great IDE for GCC's windows ports Cygwin or MinGW.


look.. i can see the man is a complete Braniack... but was his GPA while in Yale or Harvard.. which ever of the two affirmative action for whitey school he went to...

His SAT score was 1206 (566 verbal, 640 math).\n\nHis cumulative undergraduate GPA at Yale was 2.35.\n\nGraduated from Yale University with a degree in history, and then earned an MBA from Harvard University.\n\nTraditionally, one has to have a 3.0 GPA to get a Master's degree.  I'm sure Harvard has that type of standard.


i am told it can be really exciting.. and it beats getting exposed to the wrong thing,,,,and u cant get pregnant or get someone pregnant.. i would like to try.

All you gotta do is visit a chat room and start talking to a guy LOL.  Most guys are there for that reason.  Very few arent there for that reason.  Men are ALWAYS horny!!!!!


I have been bestfriends w/ her for almost a year. At one time she said she liked me alot but was going to go out w/ someone else. I like her to but I dont wont to lose her as a friend if I ask her out. What should I do?

Dating "best friends" is risky at best, and more often than not it doesn't work out. Girls (you don't say how old you are, by the way) tend to see close male buddies more like brothers at times, so making the transition from friend to sweetheart is often a stretch for them.\n\nThe one thing I can suggest is to be open and honest.  Try telling her at some point, but don't wait until she's dating someone else.


Some kind of fluid, yeah, and... wax? What is that stuff?\n\nWhy is "DO NOT DRINK" written about 30 times on the bottle? What's in it that makes it so toxic?\n\nThanks!

There's a lot of something very much like glycerine! It's soapy, and if you get it in the carpet, it makes suds forever!\n\nOf course, I'm just guessing about that. Just don't DROP it!\n\n(and I wouldn't drink it either...no matter how much you might want to...)


something that i've been ponderin' for a while is why is everyone here is it to fulfill some greater cause? or just to waste our life searchin' for the calling that doesn't exist...hmmm?

Existentialism.  A one word answer to that.\nYou are born - hence you are living.  It is just a journey from one point to another - from birth to death.


he doesnt take anything serious, how can i make him get interested in studying and make him active and lively? what sort of advice can i give him? he is my cousin and younger to me.

If someone is always idling and being lazy the\nproblems could be related to his friend circle and\nfamily. He should be helped to get involved in\nsolving puzzles, reading, physical activities like\nsports ( preferably team sports ). Reading about the\nhistory of subjects one wants to study also helps.\nInteresting toys, repairing gadgets, doing/building\nmodels also help in generating a keen interest.\nIn general the problem is of arousing interest and\npassion for something. Which can be solved by \necouraging him to live a active life rather than a \npassive one. ( e.g. Learning to play a musical\ninstrument rather than listening to music.\nParticipating in a drama / performance rather\nbeing just a part of the crowd. Learning to\nwrite programs than just playing the games on\ncomputer. Learning to perform magic, learing\nto draw cartoons instead of watching cartoons.\n\nHelp him in developing an interest in some hobby.\nAgain I would repeat, prefer a hobby involving\ndoing things rather than merely collecting things.\n\nEncourage him to get involved in team activities.\n\nOf course, this is a tough task requiring a lot of\nunderstanding and patience.\n\nWish you good luck!


Darwin's book of evelution says that differnt races are due to evelution. If that is true, than certian groups are more evolved than others, therefore supior. There are no races, we are simply part of the human race.

Personaly, I do not fully believe in Darwin's theory. I think God meant to make us all special in our own way.\n\nPS) Happy New Year and good luck!!!


Help Please !\nI want to move or copy my files from one of my hard drives (for example C ) to the other (like E) the problem is I don’t want them to lose their creation date … what should I do to keep the creation date ??

This is incredibly easy, and in no way risks the date/time information from being changed, and other correspondents seem to have forgotten this so far. For the benefit of these files being BACKED UP, using an archiving program like compressed files (on Windows 2000 and XP) programs like winzip or any other from a vast number of archiving utilities that can be found online, downloaded and installed, and some of them may even have step-by-step wizards to help and guide you to complete this task.\nUsing one of these will make your data take up less space.\n\nSince MS Windows is a graphical user interface, and as such, anything on the computer can be represented by an icon, and clicking on the icon will either open a file into a program, run a program, or open up a folder. All you have to do is open up the windows explorer, and from there select one of the disks/drives listed in that window, click on one of them and it will allow you to view data/diles there (depending on your set up, it may change in the open window where you are, or open up in another window) having two windows open will be easier.\n\nThis will subsequently list the folders (directories) that are stored on this drive. if you want to make a new one called backup - it may be an idea to give it a different name that you know what it is but no one else will, so not take any notice of it. Open this folder up so it is an open window. Switch back to the original window (say, the folder that represents "My Documents" and so long as both windows are open and visible on the screen, you can use what is called "drag & drop" to move/copy files from one location to another. To select more than one file at a time using the mouse, if all the files are in sequential order then using the mouse select an area round those files and they will be selected.The alternative method if you are being selective about what files you want to move, hold down the -Ctrl- key as you click on each file, and it also becomes selected, and will be highlighted along with other files .\n\nThis is genuinely easier to to than my description might suggest, but be VERY CAREFUL that you don't hit the delete key when more than one file is selected unless you genuinely want to get rid of that file, an easy mistake to make, and easy to recover from by going to your Recycle Bin (get to this from your desktop) and selecting restore files. Equally, be aware of not creating a file called "Copy of document.doc/picture.jpg" etc, because that is one sure as hell way to confuse people when they are doing file back up tasks, and this also doubles up the amuont of space the files take on your hard disk because there would be two of them.\n\n*SIDE NOTE* \nIf you have  only one drive it will be assigned drive letter (C) personally I would always recommend creating a second volume on your hard disk, and this would be one of the reasons for doing so. Incidentally, any CDrom or DVD and CDRewriter will normally be listed as (D) and (E) drives - this is a completely different way of backing up data, and not in the remit of your question. \n*NOTE ENDS*\n\nThis can also be applied to a folder on a network if you are connected to a network. Repeat all instruction as detailed above, with the exception that if you want to access it 9your backed up data) you will have to re-connect to the network, normally automatic when you log in to your computer - speak to your network administrator about this, if this is applicable.\n\nThank you for reading, and I hope this explains and assures you that it is a really easy task, and even a novice computer user can do this.


Hi, has anybody any comments on the above school in England? Thanks.

The College for young boys? My favourite Jack The Ripper Suspect, Montague Druitt, went there as a child. In one of the communal rooms, he is to have etched "M J DRUITT" onto one of the walls (the etching is still there).


assuming that he knows how to deal with a computer ;)

Besides having a healthy diet....mainly to counter hereditary influences.

As mentioned above:  exercise (preferably aerobic enough to get you sweating) and soluble fiber* - oatmeal is one source (probably the best source), but isn't the only source.  \n\nAnother method of reducing cholesterol is to take niacin.  Note that niacin had a side effect called "niacin flush" which is rather unpleasant.  To prevent this, take a timed release version of niacin.\n\n*The more I learn, the more I find out that most health problems are due to either a lack of exercise or inadequate fiber.


I am wanting to take the Civil Service Test in Mid-TN area, and am not sure where to find the info.

I need something effective and on the insane side of challenging.  I don't have access to any weird or special equipment (yoga balls, climbing ropes or gear, parachutes, etc...), so that stuff is out of the question.  I need a workout program that will incorporate as many elements of physical fitness as possible (strength, endurance, speed, pain tolerance, stretching, nutrition, and long lasting fitnes).  Your suggestions are appreciated.

You should seriously consider Pilates. Pilates is a totaly body fitness system developed by Joseph Pilates decades ago. The system focuses on complete strength using your own body as resistence as well as flexibility and health.\n\nPilates has enjoyed a resurging popularity recently as dancers and other performers have found it to be effective and fast. Once it took hold it found it's way into classes in gyms all over the world.\n\nThere are devices used in some pilates classes but none of these are necessary. If you pick up some literature on the exercises taught by the creator and do them faithfully every day you will not even recognize your body in 3 months.


Would a 5 pound rock (perfect sphere) drop at the same speed of a 5 million pound rock (perfect sphere)?  Can someone please explain potential energy?

To answer the question asked:  It depends on neither.\n\nWeight is a factor of the amount of mass in a gravity field.  \n\nOn earth, the gravity field is uniform enough for weight to be a good measure of mass.  But take your 5 pound rock to the moon and it would weigh much less even though it still has the same mass.  It weighs less because the pull of gravity on the moon is less.  As the pull is what gives the rock its acceleration when dropped, it is only the pull that determines how fast something drops. \n\nThe last mission to the moon did the classical experiment of dropping a hammer and a feather at the same time.  Since there is no air on the moon they both dropped at the same rate.  But it was a rate that was much slower had the hammer been dropped on earth.\n\nSo it isn't the mass, nor an objects weight, but how strong the gravity field the object is in when it is dropped.\n\nThat means on earth all things fall at the same rate.  We see a difference when we drop a feather and a hammer on earth because of the friction of the air places greater drag on the feather than on the hammer.\n\nBut they are both pulled down at the same rate by the gravity of the earth.


1.I don't get along with his sister.\n2.We never spend anytime together I'm at home and he's out with his friends.\n3.He always thinks about his family and the only family i have is my mom\n\nWhat should I do?

Marriage should be a lifetime committment, however, if one of you is unhappy and the other won't listen or try to help make changes so you both can be happy, it's time to call it a day. An unhappy marriage can't survive if both aren't willing to give 210% to love, honor and cherish each other. You have my deepest empathy and best wishes.

How can I get my Firefox window to open full-screen instead of in the tiny window that needs to be expanded to read?

The next time you open a link maximize the resulting window. Then close the window immediately. That generally works for me.


If you meet a guy and have been hanging out for over month. he says "i'm falling for you" then you find out he's talking to other women online, which by the way, she's really ugly...he still says she means nothing? is he trying to make me jealous? he leaves sexy, juicy comments under her pics on her myspace profile which he knows i look at. he says it bothers him too that guys leave me comments. so is he trying to make me jealous or is he just a player?

well honestly in my opinion, i dont think theres anything wrong with a guy dropping a line for some random girl he never meet in his life. Anything and everything that has to do with online stuff is just a popularity contest.\n\nSo if this guy says he loves you, but talks to this random chick online dont look too much into it, unless he goes out of his way and meets this chick, THEN theres a problem, but other than that i dont think its a biggie.\n\nGo on a few dates and hangout with him a little more and see if hes the type that will cheat on you. Dont judge him on how he acts in MYSPACE , XANGA , or FRIENDSTER , all of these are popularity contests. People are just acting and being different from who they really are.


I want to have responsible kids.  How do I build financial responsibility in them?

Here's something we're trying with our 15 year old to help him understand credit cards and money management.  \n\nHe has a Visa Buxx card, which is a prepaid, reloadable card that works like a credit card, but has a balance only you (the parent) can control.  The teen has access to account information on their balance and transactions.  They use it just like a credit card anywhere Visa is accepted.  They MUST be aware of what's available in their account or their purchase will be declined.  \n\nYou fund the card from a checking account or checking card.  The issuing bank charges you a setup fee and a small fee ($2)each time you add to the card.  We have a checking account with the bank that issues it and they actually waive that fee.  You can put as little or as much (up to $2000) as you want.  Minimum age to use a card is 13.  And there's no minimum balance or minimum time limit on it.\n\nFor us, it's a real simple way to give him an allowance AND responsibility for it.  For him, it's a way to spend AND budget his money, easily helping him save it for what he wants without tapping his real savings account.\n\nIf your kids are too young, or you think it's too soon, I'm sure the program will be around for a while.  But if you think it's something worth trying, here's a link from Visa to explain the program.

everything i look for in baja comes up with tunisa i just want to know about the religion. i've heard there are some active members all over the us

Do you mean Bahai??\nIt originated in Iran as an offshoot fromthe Ithna Ashari Shia Community and has evolved to a new religion.\n\nThe Bahá'í Faith is an emerging global religion founded by Bahá'u'lláh, a nineteenth-century Persian exile. "Bahá'í" is either an adjective referring to this religion, or the term for a follower of Bahá'u'lláh.\n\nBahá'í theology speaks of three interlocking unities: the oneness of God (monotheism); the oneness of his prophets or messengers; and the oneness of humanity (equality, world unity, globalism). These three principles have a profound impact on the theological and social teachings of this religion.\n\nReligion is seen as a progressively unfolding process of education, by God, through his messengers, to a constantly evolving human family. Bahá'u'lláh is seen as the most recent, pivotal, but not final of God's messengers. He announced that his major purpose is to lay the spiritual foundations for a new global civilization of peace and harmony, which Bahá'ís expect to gradually arise.\n\n1 Relation to other religions \n1.1 Distinction \n1.2 Persecution \n1.3 The Covenant \n2 Demographics \n3 Teachings \n3.1 Summary \n3.2 Social principles \n3.3 Mystical teachings \n3.4 Study and worship \n4 History \n4.1 The Báb \n4.2 Bahá'u'lláh \n4.3 `Abdu'l-Bahá \n4.4 Bahá'í administration \n5 Current plans and focus \n6 Laws \n7 Places of worship \n8 Calendar \n9 Symbols \n10 Involvement in society \n11 See also \n12 References \n13 External links \n13.1 Official websites of the Bahá'í International Community \n13.2 Other Bahá'í websites \n \nRelation to other religions\nBahá'ís believe in a process of progressive revelation recognising the major religions' founders including Adam, Noah, Zoroaster (Zarathustra), Krishna, Abraham, Moses, Buddha, Jesus, and Muhammad. Like Muslims, Bahá'ís interpret religious history in terms of a series of prophetic dispensations. Each prophet, or Manifestation, brings a somewhat broader and more advanced revelation for the time and place it appeared in. Unlike contemporary Muslims, Bahá'ís do not believe that this process of progressive revelation has an end.\n\n\nDistinction\nThe Bahá'í Faith is not a combination of religions, but is a distinct religious tradition, with its own scriptures, teachings, laws, and history. Even though Bahá'ís have their own distinct teachings, they believe in the divinity of several past messengers of God.\n\nBahá'ís describe their faith as an independent world religion, differing from the other great religious traditions only in its newness. Bahá'u'lláh is thought to fulfill the messianic promises, and other spiritual aspirations, of all these various predecessor faiths.\n\n\nPersecution\nBahá'ís continue to be persecuted in Islamist ruled countries, especially Iran, where over 200 believers were executed between 1978 and 1998. Since the Islamic Revolution of 1979, Iranian Bahá'ís have regularly had their homes ransacked, been banned from attending university or holding government jobs, and several hundred have received prison sentences for their religious beliefs, most recently for participating in study circles. Bahá'í cemeteries have been desecrated and property seized and occasionally demolished, including the House of Mírzá Burzurg, Bahá'u'lláh's father. The House of the Báb in Shiraz has been destroyed twice, and is one of three sites to which Bahá'ís perform pilgrimage. [1] [2] [3] [4]\n\n\nThe Covenant\nOne of the main teachings in the faith is of unity, and Bahá'ís believe that Bahá'u'lláh has guaranteed the unity of their faith by ordaining certain authorities and institutions, which are described at length below. This divine guarantee of the integrity of Bahá'í institutions is known as "The Covenant of Bahá'u&


Jupiter is definitely a planet, a gas giant type. Sometimes the Jovian system - the huge planet with its moons, taking their number and size of the largest ones, is referred to "LIKE a mini solar system". Jupiter is not a star though, and it is not a brown dwarf. Though Jupiter has a major gas atmosphere it still has a metallic core. A browm dwarf, an intermidiary between a star and planet, is totally made of gas, so there is a full convection between its outer and inner layers, unlike Jupiter.

If light is a particle how much does it weigh and why can't you contain it like other physical matter.

Adding to the previous answers: It's not so much that light IS a particle and a wave, it's that it behaves like a particle or a wave depending on the situation. And 'particle' isn't a very good term since it implies mass when it, in fact, doesn't have mass (it does have momentum however).\n\nParticle examples (called 'photons'):\n- Light is absorbed by atoms and molecules in little bundles/packets. Only bundles of an exact amount of energy can be absorbed and/or released.\n- The photo electric effect: When light strikes the surface of metal it can knock electrons off (due to it's momentum).\n\nWave examples:\n- Light interferes with other light in much the same way water waves do (constructive and destructive interference).


He is dumb. Mainly because he has never had to do anything for himself in his life. Family money and influence got him anything he wanted. He never had to work a day in his life. He was a drunk until he was 40.  \nHe never even had to think for himself. thus, he is dumb.


wat do i do? did i mention that he's hot?

He could be trying to say no in a nice way.  (Sorry!!!)  I had the same thing happen to me.  I asked a guy out and he said we would...sometime.  Next thing I know, he's "kinda got a girlfriend".\nGuys are jerks when they try to be nice.

Everything is a mess on my computer\n\neverytime I need a file I search for it\n\nsometimes it would be faster to download than look for it on my pc\n\nAnybody tried an effective way to organize files on the computer?

As far as Audio files are concerned, I let iTunes worry about organizing it and if I need to find music I just go through iTunes, iTunes is very good at keeping your music organized.\n\nWhen it comes to documents such as Word and Excel, I have folders for Word documents and Excel documents withint the My Documents folder that way I can see only that file type.\n\nI put movies into the Movies folder within My Documents and then organize them according to genre.  However if you don't want to worry about ever organizing your files again try a desktop search tool such as Google Desktop Search or Copernic desktop search.

According to Hubble, the more distant galaxies are moving faster than those close to us. But, because light takes time to arrive on Earth, we're seeing how galaxies *used* to be, the more distant in space the further back in time. I guess I'm asking how couldn't it be argued that cosmic expansion is slowing down, since light from "more recent" galaxies shows less red shift than "older" galaxies? Sorry, this is just a weird question that's been hanging around in the back of my brain for a while. Comments?

Some distant galaxies appear to be accelerating away from us, not just moving at a uniform speed. \n\nAnd the most distant galaxies are probably expanding away from us at more than the speed of light. This does not violate the special theory since no information is being transferred (see reference).

CYSTIC FIBROSIS KILLS YOUNG CHILDREN....RESEARCH IS THEIR ONLY HOPE(NEXT TO GOD)!!!!

Cystic fibrosis is an the most common autosomal recessive condition in caucasian children.  It has an occurrence of 1/2000 and 1/22 are carriers in the caucasian population.  It is characterized by abnormally elevated sweat chloride levels, pancreatic insufficiency in 85% of patients and blockage of the airway by thick, heavy mucus.  The later contributes to chronic airway infections.  Half the patients die before the age of 30.\n\nThe gene responsible, CFTR on chromosome 7q31 encodes for a chloride ion channel.  A 3-base-pair deletion in the first nucleotide binding domain is a typical cause for the disorder.  \n\nRecent gene therapy trials have attempted in vivo GAT using recombinant adenoviruses or liposomes to deliver the CFTR gene to the respiratory epithelium have been attempted.  The spice tumeric has also been indicated as potentially limiting the severity of the disease.  Finally, liver transplantation may be a possibility.


how can i remain healthy?\nhow can i become lovable to others?\nhow can i become wealthy?

First, beauty comes from within; it is enhanced by the way we act, speak, treat others, and treat ourselves.  Remaining healthy is similar to the first; some health issues are out of our control, but we have the power to give it a good shot.  Eat healthy foods, drink lots of water, exercise, get regular checkups from your doctor and stay away from unhealthy places (bars and crowed elevators :).  Now as for being loveable to others well, treat others the way you want to be treated, and you will be surprised at the response.  Now for you last question, I am still working on that one myself, but if you succeed with all of the above how much wealthier do you want or need to be?

Just wondering which drugs are better Generic drugs or bran name drugs.

Well unfortunately sometimes you have to take drugs. Price wise the generics quality brand name. Some drugs I feel it is not as important to take the best quality. Though some it is very important.\n If you are taking a drug for a mental issue, like epilepsy or something of that sort. I would take name brand.\n When it comes to some of the pain medications, generic is fine....\n Some doctors will not even allow generic fills of the drugs they prescribe because of their importance in your system


What if a renter is liable for causing inadvertant damage to the property while renting a house? Is there an insurance policy one can take out to protect renter from the liability?

Check with the company where you have your auto insurance.  Many times you could get a multi-line discount.  From personal experience the money that I saved on my auto policy pretty much paid for the renters policy.

According to answers.com\nhttp://www.answers.com/tornados%20\n\n"Tornadoes develop from severe thunderstorms, usually spawned from squall lines and supercell thunderstorms, though they sometimes happen as a result of a hurricane. They are believed to be produced when cool air overrides a layer of warm air, forcing the warm air to rise rapidly, though tornadoes over water (waterspouts) frequently are observed forming in the absence of convection or apparent strong surface temperature differences. Tornadoes, lightning, and sometimes hail are associated with thunderstorms. Many tornadoes appear at the tail end of mesocyclones. On weather radar screens, a characteristic "hook echo" marks the area where tornadoes are likely to exist."\n\nThe reference will give good idea for how do tornados form


first time in jail and terribly traumatized by the experience.

The no-BS answer?  In all likelihood they don't really care all that much. The general attitude of most people towards criminals is that if they find prison life a bit harsh or brutal, well they earned it didn't they?  Following on that thought is likely a "Maybe he'll think twice about landing in jail a second time." And that's just the general public, not the folks who are forced to work with murderers and rapists on the one hand, up to petty thieves and drunken idiots on the other. \n\nWhile our society likes to talk about prison as aiming at rehabilitation, for most it is seen as punishment first and foremost.  Think of all the "dropping the soap" humor.  Not too much sympathy for the incarcerated there.  Harsh treatment at the hands of one's fellow prisoners is hardly going to greatly concern many working in the penal system who deal with the dregs of humanity on a daily basis unless it rises to the level of an emergency room visit or two.  \n\nIf you want there to be action taken on your son's behalf, you are going to have to make it more worthwhile for them to intervene than it is for them  to let it slide.  That probably means getting a private attorney, the ACLU, an elected official, or the media involved.  A mother's phone call probably doesn't register highly on their "things to worry about" list given the other challenges involved with managing a population that includes society's baddest of the bad apples.

I'm 18 and am nervous about kissing this guy I like and I'm pretty sure he likes me too.  I've never kissed for real before.  I've done little pecks but nothing more.  I don't know how to get over this irrational "fear" I have about kissing.  Do you have any advice besides "just do it" and "try not to think about it"?

The best thing to do is make yourself available for the kiss by being close enough to kiss, and by making subtle hints like eye contact, and \noccasionally staring briefly at his lips.  Also, being alone or in a private setting is important.\n\nIf you make the first move, make sure that you don't come on too strong.  If he likes you and wants to kiss you, he will kiss back by prolonging the kiss or using a little tongue.  If this happens, just respond by relaxing and don't being too agressive with your own tongue.  If you start slowly and carefully, you won't be making any mistakes.  Let him take the lead and if you like it, continue.  If not, pull away and smile.  Remember guys fear rejection as much (or more) than girls do.\n\nIf he doesn't want you to kiss him, he'll pull away.  Let him.  You don't want to waste valuable kissing time on someone who doesn't want you.\n\nAlways remember less is more.  You'll never regret having kissed too little, but you'll always regret coming on too strong.  Remember to remain confident, too.  Don't forget a breath mint!

With the new evidence about: \nThe vulnerabilities in Electronic Voting Machines since the 2000 election\nThe corruption scandals dogging the Republican Party and Executive Department staff\nThe consensus of Public Opinion Polls that most Americans believe they were deceived into supporting the war in Iraq\nThe failures of this administration to respond to emergencies like Katrina and the Iraqi Prison scandals. \n\nShould we support our president, suffer for 3 more years or encourage our legislators to initiate a recall initiative.

Hey gang, I don't think the Constitution allows for a recall election.  I think only states have recall election provisions, and then only some states.  I do think, however, that the states could pass a constitutional amendment making the President answerable to the people for his crimes and come clean with all available records, but can you really imagine such a thing happening, with our f'ed up media?\n\nAs I see it, the only ways to get rid of this President are to a) rise up in a mass, anti-Constitutionally elected government revolution, or b)elect a Democratic majority to the House and then successfully impeach both Bush and Cheney simultaneously, thus giving the Presidency to the Speaker of the House, who would be a Democrat.  To my mind, that's the only real scenario that works.  I suppose if we had a different media and more active populace, a new party could split the vote, and all hell could break loose, but I don't think we're going to see a repeat of what happened in 1860 and Lincoln and the Republican Party takeover of the White House.  So that leaves us with Democrats taking control and actually acting on something the people want, which is impeachment.  And if impeachment isn't acted upon, this country sinks deeper and deeper into the rabbit hole.

I saw on a television program years ago in which a man yelled into his home-made reciever, and his voice was then reproduced by a large speaker connected to the reciever. I'd like to know how he did it. Thanks!

The original telephone mouthpieces used a small funnel to concentrate the voice onto a thin metal diaphragm that had a metal part (pointer?) that could compress carbon bits more or less as the diaphragm vibrated.  As the carbon bits compressed and decompressed their resistance to the flow of electricity varied in proportion to the compression causing current to flow in an external wire that replicated speech as an analog.  The external wires were connected to the ear piece of the person receiving your message.  The ear piece contained an iron rod wound with many turns of very fine insulated wire forming an electromagnet.  When another very thin round diaphragm of sheet metal (attracted to magnets) was held very near the electromagnetic pole but not touching it, it vibrated in proportion to the current changes produced by the mouthpiece; producing sound waves.  A power supply (DC battery) was included in the circuit to cause current to flow.\n\nI would first try by placing the mouthpiece diaphragm horizontally over a dish of carbon bits with a pointer connected at the center of the diaphragm dipping into the carbon bits.  Gravity will hold the bits in contact with the pointer.  The carbon bits may rest on a conducting plate which is lead out of the dish using a connected insulated small diameter wire.  A second wire would be connected to the pointer or diaphragm if they both conduct electric flow.  Connect the two wires of the mouthpiece to the two wires of the ear piece including your battery in series in the circuit.  Use very small voltage by adding 1.5 volt cells in series as needed so as not to burn out the ear piece.  Experiment with the pointer and confinement of the carbon bits to optimize the rig.\n\nIncidentally, both the mouthpiece and earpiece can be made of wire coils rather than use carbon bits.  Try wiring two earphones together (without a battery) and you can talk in one and hear at the other.  Good luck.


An answer that states why or why not would be nice

Of course not.  Evolution is the study of how man evolved.....not how he was created...Banning this is to leave out a major part of learning knowledge that is  required to continue/progress in the studies of all the sciences relating to beings such as medicine, biology, chemistry etc:  Nothing should be banned in a free society nor beliefs forced upon a person. Also the christian religion should not  be taught (by itself)unless all the other religions of the world are also taught. In a free intelligent society people should be able to choose a belief based on thorough worldly unbiased information. They can still believe in a creator if they wish.

If I am an spectator and I see the solar system moving at X speed, is the ligth of the sun moving at the speed of the theoretical light speed + X? yes why? no why?

It's true that the speed of light is constant no matter what speed at which you or the source is moving.  This is a fundamental postulate of relativity, and there is no explination.  It's just accepted because our experiments indicate that it is true.  You used the formula "lights speed + X = actual speed"  this type of velocity addition is called "Galilean".  It turns out that speeds don't actually add that way.  Far out.\n\nWhere is the rest of the energy? Good question.  The frequency of the light you observe from the sun DOES depend on how fast you and it are moving.  The energy of each photon is given by E = hf, where f is the frequency of light.

Just right click on the box once, and when asked, click yes to "Download Pictures".\nAlso, above the mail, you will see and orange stripe that says "Right click to download pictures". Do this if you want all pics.\n\n2. If the problem is with a web-based mail account, then check for a few things. See if your settings block pictures in your mail. You will have to look for "options" or "preferences. As far as I know, yahoo does not block pics. \n\n3. Try right clicking on  the box, and then click "Show picture". \n\n4. Right click on the box, and click "Properties". You will see an URK like "http://www...." Copy and paste this on the address bar of a new intenrte explorer window. Press "Enter"\n\nHope this helps.

I mean, thongs are really uncomfortable and who cares that I wear underwear and it shows?  I think only women care about this and NOT men!!!

Yes, men really care if women show panty lines. It's very exciting for men.

Replacing the ink on my z715 would cost more then I paid for the printer, which makes it practically a "Disposable Printer".\n\nCan anyone personally recommend a better brand that has reasonably priced printers & ink for someone who does light printing?

It's a communist plot. Same as the oil companies. Once they've got you, they've got you.\n\nI refill my own Epson cartridges and there is something socially uplifting when I do it. I got a refill kit from Costco and I think it's going to last for YEARS. I'm a printing fool now. It really frees you to think that it's almost free to print full colour pictures. And I bought Costco print paper, much cheaper and equal in quality to those Kodak weasels.\n\nMy Epson photo 820 has a proprietary chip, so I bought a $5.00 (don't pay more) chip resetter on line.\n\nAs far as HP goes, there is a scotch-tape trick to resetting the cartridge to fool the printer into thinking it's a brand new, one million dollar qenuine HP printer cartridge. Same thing probably goes for Lexmark, but I haven't had to mess with my Lexmark printer/scanner/fax yet.\n\nWear gloves when refilling cartridges or you'll resemble a bank robber who grabbed the dye-pack.


. . . and you're supposed to figure out how to retrieve an exact amount with the use of the marked containers only?  Usually a set of steps would be asked of to find out which container is poured to which other container.\n\nI want to find information on the internet to see if there is a study on these kinds of problems, and I'd like to apply them in a potential activity that I'm going to give to students.

We all know about Bill Rancic and his 'success' but other the other still employed by Trump?

Yes, they are working for Trump but it may not be a dream job like they were promised.  Here is a Newsweek Article with the details:\n\nWhat's Second Prize? \nA reality check on what 'The Apprentice' winners won\n\nBy Ramin Setoodeh\nNewsweek\n\n\nMay 23, 2005 issue - As the winner of the second\n"Apprentice," Kelly Perdew should be in line for a top\njob in the Trump organization. But you'd never know\nthat from his office. His desk is in a small,\nwindowless space next to the assistant to Donald\nTrump's wife, Melania (Perdew has no assistant). The\nwalls are bare, except for a dry-erase board and a\nU.S. map, stuck with pins marking the distributors\nhe's signed to buy his boss's new line of bottled\nwater, Trump Ice. "This is going to be big," he vows.\n\nThat, of course, is the same promise Trump made about\nthe job waiting for the lucky contestant who survives\nlong enough to hear him say, "You're hired.'' (He'll\nbe picking this season's winner on Thursday.) In the\nseries premiere, Trump promised the top prize of a job\nas president of one of his companies. But spend some\ntime with winners of the first two seasons, and the\nreality of this reality show becomes clear: the\napprentices' $250,000-a-year gigs are less about\nclimbing the corporate ladder, and more about using\ntheir "Apprentice" celebrity to promote Trump. Then\nagain, perhaps it should come as no surprise that\nTrump may have engaged in a bit of overselling (or\n"truthful hyperbole'' as he's called it). "It's a\nlittle bit too much to ask someone to be the president\nof a $800 million building when they haven't had that\nkind of experience,'' he says.\n\nPerdew and Bill Rancic, the first season's winner,\nwere given the title of "owner's representative,'' and\nrecently were also named executive vice presidents. On\nPerdew's first day, his boss introduced him to Florida\ndevelopers working on a Trump-branded condo in Tampa.\n"Mr. Trump said, 'OK, Kelly, you're going to go help\npromote sales of the building'," Perdew recalls. He\nthen spent about 20 days in the area, chatting on the\nradio, attending parties and talking to the press.\nThese days, he's supposed to split his time between\nlaunching the bottled-water brand and sitting in on\ndiscussions about a new condo in Florida and a\ncommercial building in Manhattan. But his calendar is\nfilled with many distractions—speeches to\nentrepreneurs about Trump and "The Apprentice,"\ndeadlines for writing a book about how the military\nteaches business skills, and acting in an ad for the\nDepartment of Defense (voice-over by you-know-who).\n\nRancic, ostensibly put in charge of the $800 million\n"Chicago: Trump Tower'' project, seems to spend as\nmuch of his time reliving his TV star turn, too. He'll\nwarm up a crowd of real-estate brokers or potential\nbuyers by talking about "The Apprentice," then the\nmarketing team takes over to talk specifics. "His\ncelebrity is a draw," says Tere Proctor, the\nbuilding's director of sales. The rest of the time, he\nshadows another Trump exec in White Plains, N.Y., to\nlearn about construction. "I'm getting a full-time\neducation here," he says, on his way to inspect a new\nclubhouse on the same golf course his final task was\nstaged. "I'm not going to be a 20-year employee," he\nadds. "I'm an entrepreneur—my goal is to go on and do\na deal of my own."\n\nThe jobs may be less than advertised, but they're\nstill enough of a draw to attract some 1 million\npeople who auditioned for season four. For the first\ntime, Trump himself helped choose the finalists who\nwould make it onto his show. Sure, ratings are way\ndown since the first season, but Trump says he's\ngetting more involved because he doe


everyone says the liberals this and that.  i'm confused.

First, here's a quick definition of what liberalism means as used in America today: \n\n"American liberalism emphasizes mutual collaboration and consensus-building to solve political problems. A liberal in the United States is likely to favor institutions and political procedures that protect and empower the weak against aggression by the strong and guarantee individual freedom from restrictive social norms. Liberals encourage progressive taxation, minimum wages laws, anti-discrimination laws, and social programs."\n\nMost liberals associate with the Democratic party - Democrats tend to support these sorts of policies. However, not all Democrats are liberals - many are more moderate, and many fiscal conservatives - people who want to minimize government spending in general - have defected from the Republican party recently.\n\nAlso, many people with liberal views may not call themselves liberal - while many liberal views are strongly associated with churches, for example, a number of major churches in the U.S. associate with the Reupublican party due to its stance against abortion. Since the Republican party is currently strongly anti-liberal, many liberal stances have been adopted by the party through the term "compassionate conservativism," which permits the stance without association with the politically charged term "liberal."\n\nCommentators like Ann Coulter and Bill O'Reill have recently been involved in a general trend toward writing books which equate liberalism with terrorism, anti-american sentiment, and weakness - for this reason, the word is quite misunderstood now, something that might be apparent in the large amounts of hate present in some of the answers to your question.\n\nI hope this helps give an unbiased view of what liberals believe, and why the word is so politically sensitive right now.


What are some good, safe ways I can exact revenge on my Bio professor for failing me?\n\nShe knew I worked really hard for a passing grade. I got tutors for that class and everything, and she gave me a D+ and a wry remark "you'll have to take this class over."\n\nWhat a scumbag.\n\nHow can I get her back for screwing me over like that, without getting caught, expelled, or sent to jail?

The best revenge is success.  When you take the course again study harder and make an "A"

I am looking to move from Virginia down the western side of South Carolina, but I am hoping to hear from someone who lives there/visits there about if it's a nice place to live...\nAs in, low taxes? good schools? nice people? good jobs? pretty much any information would be extremely helpful

Well, I live about 1.5 hrs. from Greenville. I'm use to the country, & not the city...Greenville has a lot of traffic, so I wouldn't be too fond of living there, but that's just me...I'm not sure about taxes or good schools....but I do know that living in SC is a lot cheaper than most states...Greenville may be different..I don't know, I never lived there...The people in Greenville...well, you can find your bad ones, & your good ones, but that's every state, right?...Jobs are pretty decent...just about everyone I know from that area works at Charter cable...I think you bring home about 1,000+ every other week...but that's all I know...\n\nNow if you wanted to know more about Laurens, Union, Newberry, or Whitmire, I could really come in handy...lol.\n\nGood luck.\n\nOh, & I found this site, not sure if you'll find it helpful or not, but here it is http://travel.yahoo.com/p-travelguide-479222-greenville_vacations-i;_ylt=Am.fp57L9c1Rux4n5hp0HeGyFmoL


i am trying to help with a wedding but I have no idea what I am doing so here is a few questions. Does the groom walk the mothers down the is to light the unity candle? do the rings bearers walk before the flower girls? who lights the candles the ushers?

I agree with Wedding Girl's answer except for the groom walking his mother (which btw, has nothing to do with lighting the unity candle. The new bride & groom will be doing that after their vows, symbolizing their new 'unity').\n\nAlthough much more subtle, the groom walking his mother to her seat is akin to the bride being given away by her father. It shows respect and a chance for his loving mom to be with her 'little boy' one last time before he becomes a his own man.\n\nCheck out http://www.announcements.com for invitations and wedding/reception gift ideas.


my girl friend also having yahoo id i met tham only once but i dnt know why she is not talked to me i m giving their so many missed call but reply none but priviously so many talked between us can u help me for know the reson why it is so

If you only met her once, are you sure she is your girl friend?  Maybe she hasn't called you because she found a new guy.  Sorry.


I am a college student from Russia and being a non-citizen on a student visa I get no financial aid from anybody.  Is there any organization or anything here in the US that can help me pay for my on-campus room. I have to work all week long at the university to cover my housing fee. This takes lots of time and energy I should be putting into studying and I still have no money in my pocket since I have to give it all up for housing.

when you look at financial aid sites include the word "stipend."  A stipend is like a salary or allowance.  They don't usually pay for housing specifically but they do sometimes give you money for your living expenses (stipend)  Be warned though, these are very rare and the competition is high.  It's normally for grad students


they are just horny and looking for flings or short term relationships....i do go to clubs and well i am looking for a guy like my best friend but yeah i don't know what to do....the guys i get with are a bang and go.....email me if you are single?>?>?>?> wait is it because i am a whore?

girl, or what ever you are. Tell them you have to get to know me, and maybe you got to go to the last resort, the church.  If you believe in God, then you should go. There's always somebody you can at least try in church.  Plus they won't try to get into ur panies as quick as some men.  But I promise you whoever you end up with that's the "one" and trust me you'll know who the one is-remember I promised you- you'll be content with them. It's something about love and fate that just trips me out how they truly interact with each other,comebine perfectly and leave you with an epiphany that yo feel as if it were right in your face.


If you know you'll never meet the person, is it right to get in a relationship online with them?

I think it´s very difficult, because you need to know the other person, and I think is very important the physical contact.\nI have tried this type of relationships because I´m a lonely girl too and this is a way to forget a little about this fact...even thoguh, I need to put my feet on firm floor; is not healthy enough to fullfill the emptyness. Think about it before doing it. The net is dangerous and can play with your feeling so hard....Be careful. I wish you luck no matter what you decide.


I live at a high school with a really messed up filter, and hate being attached to my LAN cable. The IT-guy wanna be seems to think that if I have a router attached to the network it will make it easier for me to slide past the filter, or avoid the logging of my history. Am I missing something or is this true? If it is true, please tell me how this affects it and if it is not true please tell me why he would think it would.

Do you mean a content filter?  I don't think a router will help other than to perhaps mask who you are ... but, when they find the router they find you.


My Aunt that I care for is 83 years old.   Her monthly Social Security check is $296.50.   She has $82.50 taken out each month for Medicare.   Seems a bit steep to take out almost 30% for Medicare.   Can anyone tell me if this is correct?

The rule is that your aunt's social security check cannot be reduced on a net basis from the prior year, but if her social security increase is greater than the increase in the medicare premium, then her medicare premium can be increased.  The problem lately has been that medical inflation has exceeded the inflation in ordinary prices.  It is likely that she is fixed in income for the rest of her life given the disparity between medical inflation and consumer inflation on which social security is based.  I doubt she will see a net pay increase ever again, based upon the numbers and barring real health care reform.\n\nWhile that looks like a lot, although I am just guestimating, I have recently reviewed employee health coverages.  I suspect the average 82 year old should be paying a monthly premium well in excess of $500 per month.  Her health care costs are being heavily subsidized by workers, taxpayers and future taxpayers.  It sounds like an enormous amount, but it is well below her cost to the system unless she is in very good health.  Medicare is an insurance policy just like any other, except that the beneficiaries do not always have to pay their full share of the premium.

I have a lap top I ordered but did not pay attention to the installed Operating System and It came with MS XP Media.  I can't connect it to our domain, and have purchased a copy of MS XP Professional.  I was going to install the Professional OS on the unit.  Is there any advantage to keeping the XP Media OS

XP Pro is more suited for a professional/commercial environment. XP Pro also caontains tools like Remote Desktop connects that are not available for XP Home. I'm not sure if those are present in MCE. Windows XP Media Center Edition lets you experience video, audio, pictures, and TV through a convenient user interface that makes it more cenvenient to enjoy digital media. \n\nThe link I attached compares each version of windows XP to the other. You will find it very useful.


Use a factor tree to simplify both the numerator and denominator into their respective prime factors.  Once this is done, you can rewrite the fraction and divide out (cancel) all the common prime factors.  Whichever factors do not cancel, find their product (in both the numerator and denominator).  Whatever is the remaining fraction is your fraction in simplest form!   Good luck!

Its all about money; it seems to solve all the problems (and lets face it, it does). We'll have to attack the top layer itself, not just the lower levels. We have to reform the houses of the parliament if we want to set a precedent. How, i dont know. Will take some more thinking.

They were briefly mention in the movie "Jurassic Park" and I've seen other notable mentions in articles. What is the name of that kind of frog, and where can I find out more information on them? Also, are there other animals that can do this?

I have an SBC modem and (wired) Linksys router. I have tried to connect my laptop to my network, but the router does not seem to configure while using the modem.  When I plug the laptop into the SBC modem directly, everything works well.  Any help on this is appreciated.  Thanks.

Well, it depends on the router and how your IP address is assigned but it sounds like to me you are going to have to go into your routers configuration and either tell it to detect the DHCP settings and your IP address automatically or you will have to specify it manually.  My experience in this matter (I have set up four DSL and two cable installations) is that it should be assigned automatically if the router isn't detecting those (i.e. the process of detecting it fails) then the router is probably defective, I had that happen to a Netgear router, it wouldn't detect either one, I exchanged it for another one and the new one worked perfectly.  So if auto detection doesn't work, it's probably the router.\n\nFor more instructions select your model from the link below and see the user manual.

like why do they freak over football or baseball?

sports are like shopping to women.  its something most of us love.  watching an athlete do amazing things, perform at a professional level, brings excitement to us.  it also gives us role models, gives us something to talk about, gives us something to brag about if our team beats a friends, and it ultimately brings us together to root and hollar and just be ouselves.  \n\nplaying the sport is even better.  guys have a competitive nature to them.  we like to hit, we like to brag, and we like to win.  its fun, and without it, i dont know what id do.  \n\nhey, just think that without sports, there wouldnt be any of those 'hot guys' that you girls swoon over.  we'd all be lazy and fat.  have fun with that.\n\n7


I am from Ohio and would like to travel to Seattle. I am looking for a place to stay that is by Safeco Field. If you could help me out please do it is my dream vaction trip. I have been trying to get there for some time and have not done it yet. I live in a small town in the middle of Cleveland and Columbus, Ohio. If you can help me that would be great. Thank-you very much.    Doug Gilmore

Doug, any hotel in the downtown Seattle area will leave you with no more than a nice walk to Safeco (if it's not raining!).  I advise avoiding anything else unless you want to drive or use public transportation.  Among closer hotels, I know the Alexis is an excellent place.  Here's a link from Seattle's Convention and Visitors Bureau that will help you choose a hotel.  I hope you will find helpful.\n\nAs a fellow Mariners fan who lives far away from them too, and has seen a few games at Safeco, I only hope you will have as good a time as my wife and I did.  It is an extraordinary ballpark in an amazing city.  Go M's!

my fiance was killed in front of me last year and i still think of him EVERYDAY. i have a boyfriend now but or relationship is not really working, I think it may be because i havent really grieved all the way for my ex but i dont know how to go about it. please help me. (im for real!)

It does take time to grieve, and it often takes much longer than people think. This is especially true if you witnessed the violent death of your fiance. \n\nOne of the ways that people grieve is to talk about the person they lost, the event if they witness it, and how their life is different since their loss. One of the problems is that people around you often feel that you should be over it by now, and they may not be as available to listen. So you might want to check out a community bereavement group that might allow you to talk with others over a period of a few months. For many people this helps them to process their loss.\n\nFor the record, I don't think you ever "get over" someone, but you are able to put the loss in perspective. I've heard people say that "I haven't forgotten the person, but I can now think about them without crying!"\n\nYour local hospice, hospital, mental health association or even a local funeral home may offer bereavement groups. Most of the time they are free of charge, as well.\n\nSince you did witness the violent death of your fiance, you might also have some issues related to that trauma itself. If you have other symptoms of anxiety or depression you might want to talk this over with your doctor or a mental health professional.


I would like a reputible company, I am trying to repair my credit for a home loan.

If you get a personal loan from a local bank and make your payments on time your credit score would go up over time.  If you already have bad credit consider a secured loan (requires collateral of some sort).  However, the positive factors from this loan would take some time (6 months to a year) to actually improve your credit score.  If you are just thinking of getting a loan for quick improvement then do not do it, as getting a personal loan right before applying for a home loan might show that you are over extended.


I am looking to generate boards with unique solutions.


i've always heard about micro black holes, but have been told that you require a great mass in order to have a black hole.

There are theoretically two ways in which black holes can form.  Stellar (star) sized black holes have to be above the Chandresekhar limit of 3.2 solar masses, and are formed through the gravitational collapse of stars. They can form whenever conditions are right. These are the types of black holes that astronomers infer from binary X-ray sources and the like.\n\nMicro black holes, on the other hand, can only have been formed in the initial moments of the Big Bang, when intense pressures during cosmic expansion could have collapsed masses smaller than our sun into singularities.  According to Dr. Stephen Hawking's theory of black hole evaporation, all singularities lose mass, through a type of evaporation (the actual mechanism, having to do with vaccum energy and particle/antiparticle pairs is a bit complicated) with smaller black holes evaporating faster than large ones.  By this logic, most micro-holes would have evaporated out of existence in the thirteen billion years the universe has been around, while the larger micro-holes (things with the mass of, say, Neptune) should still be around, though hard to spot.


I'm looking to buy a powerful notebook with more than 2.5 GHZ processing speed. I am considering a HP. Is that a good idea?

Depends on what you want to use your laptop for, and how much you want to pay!\n\nAlso depends on choice of operating system - Windows or Linux or Apple !!!!\n\nIn my experience i suggest you take a look at the following which have performed excellently and good to high reliability -\n\n- Power Graphics, for Gaming - Alienware\n\n- For Multimedia: Sony Vaio\n\n- Desktop Replacement, including P4 processor - HP\nBut Heavy and Hot\n\n- Portable Laptop, long battery life, for business use: Dell\n\n- Ultralite portable: Toshiba Portege\n\n- Roadwarrior, Resilient, Longest Shelf and Battery Life, Most Optimized Performance : IBM Thinkpad\n\n- Rich schoolkid whose parents buy you a laptop and they have kind hearts but not too much idea of the real world or stuff on computers (or they work in education) - Apple :o)\n\nLowest reliability was Toshiba, then Dell, then IBM and Sony. Some Dell models such as Dell D400 (no longer available new) has been as rock-solid as the Sony and windows XP Professional on it has never crashed. Overall best performer is IBM Thinkpad series, but their speakers are not that good.
