When I say Atlantis, I mean the Lost Continent Plato Metioned.

Atlantis is an ancient mythical island, whose existence and location have never been confirmed. The first references to Atlantis are from the classical Greek philosopher Plato, who said it was engulfed by the ocean as the result of an earthquake 9,000 years before his own time.\n\nWhile there are many theories about Atlantis, nearly all serious research concludes that Atlantis never existed as Plato described it, although elements of his story may have been drawn from real events.


Most people don't know, back in 1912, Hellmann's mayonnaise was manufactured in England. In fact, the Titanic was carrying 12,000 jars of the condiment scheduled for delivery in Vera Cruz, Mexico, which was to be the next port of call for the great shi p after its stop in New York.    \n\nThis would have been the largest single shipment of mayonnaise ever delivered to Mexico. But as we know, the great ship did not make it to New York. The ship hit an iceberg and sank, and the cargo was forever lost.  \n\nThe people of Mexico, who were crazy about mayonnaise, and were eagerly awaiting its delivery, were disconsolate at the loss. Their anguish was so great, that they declared a National Day of Mourning, which they still observe to this day. \n\nThe National Day of Mourning occurs each year on May 5th and is known, of course, as Sinko de Mayo .

People need to lighten up, it made me chuckle but what do wanna bet it offends someone.


Hi! I know i can send faxes through efax.\nMy 1st question:\nIs it FREE to send unlimited faxes to anypart of world from EFAX? or are there any limits?\n\nMy 2nd questn:\nWe can send faxes thru XP. Does sending faxes from XP cost any charge? \nDo we have to install any fax modem for this or can we manage with ADSL modem or a dialup modem? (pl dont laugh at this silly question)\n\nMy 3rd questn:\nIf i just join my phone line pin to my PC & send any fax to my local place through XP (within city & not long distance) does that cost? Will the local call charges be charged by my telephone operator? If sent to a long distance will the "long distance call charges" will be charged?\nPlease answer all my questions.\n\nAlso answer this:\nWhat is the best way \na) to send faxes within my pace (not long distance)\nb) to send faxes to long distance\nc) to send FREE faxes\n\nHope you understand my lengthy questions & i hope you will answer all of my questions\nTHANKS IN ADVANCE!

Ok...IF you have an internal modem then use your Xp unit to send faxes..they will have to be generated withIN the computer itself. \n\nIt is free, unless you send long distance but the charge should be very minimal unless you are sending a fracking manuscript.\n\nJust take the telephone cord out of the phone and plugit into your computer. In the document after you save it...and while it the document is still open...click on FILE then go to PRINT and choose FAX, then follow the prompts.\n\nIt is just like normal faxing EXCEPT it will not scan like a fax machine does of your original document...\n\nFORGET USING EFAX..it costs and it does not work mainly because the recieving computer or fax machine does not have EFAX on it and it costs them and you.


Im doing a bio powerpoint presentation and we are tallking about global warming, endarged species the environment etc...  In my poweroint my main question is how is the bald eagle affected by the environment?

Pollution and DDT can cause poor environments.  All the oil and logging industries causes detriment to fishing of salmon for eagles.  As civilization expands their habitat shrinks.

I'm unemployed & I would like to fax my resume to actual fax numbers from my PC free or the lowest possible cost.

Assuming you have a phone line, then yes. We have a scanner/copier/printer/fax combo that I use all of the time to fax documents to others. It doesn't cost us a thing. You just need the right software.


does anyone know any good websites (clean im in work!), were having a really slow day and I am sooooooooo bored!\nI think the category fits perfectly coz i'll go mad with boredom soon!!

Lucky you to have access to the internet, our company doesn't allow it, they restrict everything.

Do you believe God can use you to be a deliverer in these "wicked end times"?

Yes, and I believe we were directed to be Jesus arms and hands here on earth for our season.  God may not need anything from us, but He sure does use us whenever He wants to, however He wants to, and that is His sovereign right.  We need to be willing vessels, if we want to recieve a blessing thru all the trials and such.\n\nYou can effect people without having a clue you are doing it.  It comes from the example you live out in your life, and if you are following the Lord, it will be for your good and the good of the Kingdom.  We all have had thoughts of what WE want to do for God, but what about what the Lord has planned for us, are we willing and ready to be used, sometimes without even knowing it.  Sometimes used in ways we would not consent to, except for Jesus in our heart.\n\nI have given money, knowing there was little chance to recieve it back, I have taken on care for 2 young boys, I have given up many personal rights, all in God's plan for my life.  There have been many more instances, and so many blessings from my trying to be obedient.  This is not what I thought I would do for God, but He has shown me that to raise my children in His knowledge is more important than whatever plan I thought would be for His glory.\n\nSo in this fallen world, we have to listen to the still small voice, and be obedient to it, even when we don't understand why... it isn't in our mind to know the mind of God. Blessings.


in my volleyball uh...well... i guess you could call it league, my teacher wont let us spike. should i spike behind her back? i mean, we can spike the ball from the back row, but not the front. should i spike or not?

lol how odd\nif you can't spike, then what's gonna be the thrill of volleyball? There won't be any excitement and a rally will only end when someone messes up...that equals borrrring.\nso i say go for it and then if you teacher says no, then ask her/him why not...\nlate


What confidence could voters have in his failed attempt to handle emergencies?

I don't know! Did he go back to school and learn how to communicate with people? Not even half the people voted.\nHe got 60,000 of the votes. The other guy got 54,000 of the votes. That's not very much for either one of them. To me Nagin was a failure and so was the Governor during Katrina!


I'm talking of a guy of 29 yrs old. One of the women of his kids was a 2 month fling!

If a man had 3 children by 2 ex wives and was a good father to them, then no I wouldn't be put off. If he was a single parent due to an unfortunate circumstance absolutely not I'd still would trying dating him. BUT if he's a male whose a baby daddy (regardless of race, age, or income) of 2 different women then that would definitely put me off. Especially if his 3 children are very close in age that makes me question his respect for women, his children, his views on relationships and safe sex, also if he's a man (achieved status) or a male (ascribed status).

I really want to lose weight, and I have been exercising for about four years on a regular basis.  I have gotten bored with step aerobics and walking, so my exercising has decreased to about 25-30 minutes per day.  I bought an elliptical trainer.  How effective are they for weight loss?  How long should I exercise on it each day, and at what level (I am just starting).

Elliptical trainers are great because they don't feel so difficult as treadmills.  I do think, however, that the readouts for calories burned tend to be overly generous or high.  It might tell you that you burned 450 calories in 40 minutes, but I don't think that anyone really burns that many!\n\nI would work out for 30-40 minutes (including cool down and warm up) - pick one of the preset programs that incorporate some "hills."  Don't lean on the machine or rest your upper body while you work out - it's a common mistake.  Instead, try to pump your arms freestyle or pump with the skiing handblebars if they come on your machine.\n\nA few years ago, I lost about 10 pounds in about 9 months (I wasn't dieting at all), and I only used the elliptical at my gym.  If you work out 5 times a week, I think it's a very effective way to melt some fat and improve your cardio system!

actually this site has prescreened curse words and automatically puts in the astrix in place of them.  SO you have to be creative in order to say what you want.


my best friend is having chemo for breast cancer, she has already lost her hair, we can't find any suitable turbins or scarves that cover the the back of her head. just really want something that she feels confident in. thanks.


This is just to much to bare with for me with the wedding the the planning the fiance who won't bend a little to please me on my day!!!! I'm not in love anymore i'm going to dallas and stay with my brother and tell that assh**e it's off what was i thinking this whole thing was crazy!

i would leave him. (i read your quesiton about how you want your friend to be the maid of honor not your sister as your fiance wants) If he doesnt like your best friend than things arent going to be good in the future. When you get married and live together what is going to happen when she comes over? Or wants to babysit your children? Needs a place to stay?\n\nNow back to what you just said. You are doing fine. You are just freaking out about how this could have happened since at first you two were both in love and now you arent.\n\nYou might need some help getting over your love. Its a good thign you are going somewhere where your friends and family are. I would be so upset and need friends and family to cheer me up.\n\ngood luck!


So many marriages have this problem today, instead of having any true leadership the husband and wife get caught in a power struggle. I mean is it really posssible to agree on every decision we make. Wouldn't it be better if the man had the final word? He would consult with his wife and make the final decision. I mean wouldn't this make the family more harmonious.

You are exactly right.And that is what the bible teaches.Man is to be the leader of the household and his decisions should stand firm.The wife should be silent in the home and in the church.Of course this view will reap criticism from the new world order,but society changes and not the words of the bible

I have found myself looking at and doing things with other men. I know I need to leave, but my children are happy, my sitter is happy, and even he is happy about me sticking around. But I am far from being happy. I am doing the best I can but I still need to leave. I do not love him anymore. He says he will change, but he has said that before. I have confided in friends (at least I thought they were) for advice So now I will ask anyone else who does not know me. What should I do? And how should I go about it? Some advice please.

My XP computer's d:/ drive isn't opening when I push the button, and it has a CD (game) in there. I've also tried ejecting it from My Computer but it still won't open. Any ideas?

If none of the other fixes work, you can manually open it (if its a cd drive and not a burner) by inserting a thin pin into the small hole usually found near the rotary volume controol or by the eject button. When you insert the pin it will slide in easily till it hits the release mechanism, then gently push a little bit and the drawer will open


After losing 50kgs in three months,i have some extra skin on my body,on the stomach,legs and arms ans espically on the stomach,so what to do?how can i get rid of it as fast as possible?

HOLY COW!!! 50 kilos in three months???? Wanna share your secret? PLEASE?!?! Lol. Well such fast weight loss will naturally have an impact on the tightness of your skin. I guess surgery would be a preferable option but maybe it's a bit extreme. I dunno, perhaps excercise to get some muscles and to tone that excess flabbiness. Otherwise, good job again!!


I know that she dies, but I don't know how. Can anyone tell me???

Marissa was given an offer by her father to work on a yacht with him for the next year. After not a lot of thinking but a lot of tearful goodbyes especially to Summer and Julie, she decides to take it. Ryan asks to drive her to the airport because she was the first person she met here and he'd like to be the last one to say goodbye. Marissa says she was going to ask him to do that anyway. Moving on, Volcheck kept trying to talk to Marissa but she wasn't letting him. He demanded from Ryan money to start over somewhere and Marissa gave Ryan the pearl necklace Julie had given her to pawn for cash. Moving onto the last three minutes, we see Ryan in his used card that his mother gave him as a graduation gift driving Marissa when Volcheck comes from behind, rams his car twice, and then tries shoving his car to the side of the road with his bigger car. He says he's trying to get them to pull over but he's drunk. The car goes off the side of the road, flips a few times, and finally stops, leaking gasoline and fire. Ryan gets out and drags Marissa out just before the car bursts into flames. Marissa asks Ryan to stay with her when she dies and that's all she wrote for Marissa Cooper!


How do I take addresses from an excel worksheet and print each one on a single label, on a sheet of labels. I don't want to have to print each individual one and position it on the sheet and keep reprinting.

Do you have word? If you do, then you can go to tools - envelopes and labels and choose the type of label you have. Then you need to click on "new document" this will put the lines where they are supposed to be. \n\nIf you don't have word, all I can say is to set up the cells in excel to be where the labels fall by trying it on blank pieces of paper. \n\nIt would be easier in Word though...

We hear all the time that a couples family shouldn't come in between the couples relationship. Does the same go for your spouse? Should you not allow your spouse to come in between you and your parents or siblings? Don't those relationships with so much history deserve the same respect?

Is burning an American flag illegal or freedom of speech?

Although I personally feel that burning the flag as a means of protest is wrong-minded I also accept someone's right to do so.\n\nI'm personally opposed to any law or ammendment to the Constitution banning flag burning.  Not because I'm some left-wing nutcase, but because it puts us in the same league as the very few regimes that also banned destruction of their flag.  These include:  Nazi Germany, Post Islamic Revolution Iran, and Iraq under Saddam Hussein.  We don't need any link to those regimes.


Imagine that the birth of Jesus, the last supper, his death, etc. were captured with modern technology like video cameras.... what would that mean to modern religion? Would it enhance or destroy your religious happiness?

It would mean a lot if people without a vested interest in promoting religion had recorded anything related to those miraculous events.\n\nBut, as it is, the only "witnesses" are those who were promoting the "belief." And, as such, aren't credible.


My friend needs a HTML code on word.....I dont have it so i dont know.

You need to know the basics of HTML first. You can write HTML code in any word document, or text pad. I am not sure if he wants the whole document to be an html file or if he just wants html code in there but to start off you might want to declare the head and body.\n\nhttp://www.w3.org/MarkUp/Guide/ is a great basic html guide. Try this site out first and then you can create a basic html document.


Why are 15-30% of Americans still not willing to see what has happened in the last five years with the US political response to 9-11, Republicans and the Bush administration? Is it Blind Faith? What reasonable minded human being, that can remember the way most Americans felt on that day, is still willing to stand behind the ideology of the Bush Doctrine? Do the right-wing minority still believe that the, "your either with us or against us" mentality is a reality? Don't people realize that to bring our military home does NOT mean we loose the war in Iraq; it only means that our strategy has changed, and the best interest of our Nation is to get out of Iraq. No matter how you get into a mess, you have to figure out the best way to get out, with your life and your dignity. Pulling out of Iraq is NOT a defeat. We can't win a war on terror by being stubborn. The words of George W. Bush, resolve, resolute, these words mean STUBBORN, acting like a spoiled child can't win a war on terrorism.

well when President Clinton said the same things about Iraq in office. was he one of those right wing fantics? the weapons ended up in other countries Syria Germany and Iran. countries like France Germany rRussia and Chinia all receiving pay offs from Saddam . War is a terrible thing but giving up to lies of the press is worst.

Here's a full factsheet from the Electoral Commission about the ins and outs of being a candidate at a General Election. The Electoral Services department at your local authority may also be able to point you in the right direction.\n\nAlso, if there's a political party out there you wouldn't mind standing for, then by all means join it and try and get yourself considered for selection. It's quite a big thing certainly, but if you work hard at it you could possibly do it.


Here it is: A small firm produces AM and FM radios. The Am take 15 hours to produce, the AM/FM take 20 hours.  Production hours are limited to 300h per week.

When I was 10 yrs old, I recall hovering above my bed, floating out of my bedroom window, propelling rapidly yet comfortably upward while watching my house and neighborhood seemingly shrink in size, entering a large multi-colored spacecraft, being gently set down atop a large table, seeing a near blinding bright light, seeing 3 pleasant looking abstract facial outlines just before passing out, then waking up as I was being set down on the sidewalk along side my backyard while in my underwear. 2 days later my mom noticed pin size puncture marks on the back inner sides of each of my ears. Did I dream this? Or was I really abducted?

no, but i heard a lot of this stories. it may be true, but you should know whether it's true or not. how many years has passed since that incident? if you haven't encounter any problem with your body, then it is, perhaps, a dream. but if you have illness or other problem, then consider it to be one of the alien abduction cases. seeing your body or floating out of your body may be near-death experience, but in this case, the possibilities is low. try not to think too much about this, and get on with your life, IF nothing is wrong with your health.

All Americans are not immigrants. Most Americans are born American citizens. The settlers that came over were not immigrants, they were just settlers. The American Indians were settlers too. The land that is now America was merely unclaimed land, therefore not a country at the time. The ones who claim we are all immigrants are either ignorant or trying a diversionary tactic to excuse people invading our country illegally, namely the illegal aliens.

what is the right way to determine which to choose and how many to get? and why do people go nuts over them?

The wedding-industrial complex, or some nutso etiquette expert. Etiquette books were written for wealthy northeastern families to show off their wealth.\n\nFavors should reflect the couple in some way, be affordable, and should be one for every guest or couple attending. Some ideas:\n* CDs (burn your own) with the couple's favorite songs. A CD with labeling kit and print cartridges will run about 45 cents per CD and five minutes of time.\n* Picture frames (large enough to hold a 3x5).\n* candies wrapped in toole (get high-quality candies like toblerone or girardelli, not the generic m&m's without lettering)\n* flowers, either potted, or in bulb form.\n* candles with frosted glass votive.\n\nPeople go nuts over weddings anyway. Try having a wedding, it's suddenly like everything in your life is your family's business. I'm a big fan of marriage, but weddings are just a royal pain and a way to spend lots of money.\n\nWeddings invite intrusiveness on a par second only to having children. It's fun reminding your parents that you don't need approval for your children's names, nor when nor how many children you have.


Has anyone ever noticed that the medical industry seems to use billions if not trillions of dollars attempting to find a cure for every disease? HIV, Herpes, HPV, Cancer, ect. Why does someone not just start developing a better immune system?

Because drug companies are not looking for a cure, they are looking for a band aid pill.  Something that you have to buy over and over and over and over and over, called a "maintenance" drug.  They are the biggest drug dealers in the world.

What is the best way to approach women? How do girls expect to be appoached? I know corny pickup lines make one look like an idiot...so what are other ways.

We expect to be approached just like anyone. Just walk up and say "hi". Introduce yourself and start talking about anything. Sports, weather, who you are out with tonight, music- whatever. Either the conversation ball will start rolling or it won't. If you approach a girl with stupid lines, or an agenda, any girl who is worth talking to will see right through it.

Once again the endless limbo.  Shoot and score my friend.  This hardly ends horribly.  Try a little flirting first if she flirts back its definite she has thought about dating you.  Women are very hard to predict.  If you really want to win her over do something romantic, flowers, anything fluffy and cute, or poems.  Whatever works women want to be comfortable make her feel it.  Best of luck and may the elements be with you

Yes. It is also mentioned somewhere in Paul or in Revelations.

I saw the doctor because I was losing sensation in my hands and feet. Checked for diabetes and vitamin deficency. Just low on b12. Have been getting shots for 5 months now, sensation in my hands getting much better, feet starting to feel better.  I just don't have any more energy than I did before. Have been tired for years, have trouble getting iron levels up to normal. Exercise regularly, losing weight, taking supplements, no smoking, no drinking, no surgeries, no diabetes, no high blood presure or cholesterol.  Is there something else I should be looking for.  I worry that the HMO will not look for problems until things get worse.

First, should that person who ever they might be feel like over 200 million served like in McDonalds. Or am I just being crabby?\n3. If not, how will we know when this child is born?\n4. Will there be gifts and prizes given to this person and their family?\n5. Is this anything like people trying to have the first baby on January 1, 2000?\nPlease tell me what you think.

i dont think they will even know they were the 300 milionth person, lol.  and yeah i agree lets give them unlimited MCD's for life, a party and a holiday named after them!!


I am writing a murder scene for a comic where a man of average height and build is stabbed, from behind, in to the heart with a switchblade.\n\nI would be grateful if you could tell me where roughly the heart is located viewed from the rear, does the spine cover it?\n\nAlso would a single, hard stab to the heart, from the rear, be nough to kill a man (say the blade is 3-4 inches). How long, roughly, would death take if he was abandoned after the stabbing and had no medical help? And would there be lots of blood or just a dribble (for want of a better expression!)\n\nThanks

The heart is located between the two pleural bags(lungs) in a space called the mediastinum slightly towards the left. So the location from the rear would be toward the left. I doubt that the spine covers it entirely. And a single hard stab would not be sufficient to reach the heart, it's more than 3 to 4 inches deep from behind. A lot of blood would spurt if you hit a major blood vessel. By no means will it be just a dribble. Try "stabbing" from the back in a way that the arms come round and up front it's a better option.

It should be...maybe a pre-trailer type thing...the movie is completed.


Hi, my school has WebSense filtering that's mad hard to get around, because every time someone finds a way around it, someone manages to mention it in front of a teacher... and that gets blocked too.\nThe most recent advancements the school has made are blocking translation services and proxy websites. \nI'm NOT trying to get on inappropriate websites! The school has blocked even websites that are useful for research and such, and it would be nice to be able to access them while at school.\nSo: Does anyone know of and VERY obcure proxy sites that could get around the 'Proxy Avoidance' category, or an alternative to using translation services or a proxy?\nI'll keep this to myself-- I'm tired of kids getting everything blocked just because they want to check their MySpace pages or something.\nThanks in advance!

My answer will be very helpfull for you.\n\nCheck http://www.proxyrater.com for the newest and fastest web based proxies to bypass firewalls and other filters.\n\nA top5 fastest (according to loading Myspace) proxy is there.

if a guy and a girl jump out the pool at the same time leaving their swimsuits behind who would you look at first? and who would you look at the longest? what would be your next action?

Naked? I doubt if I would look at either. I would be concentrating on exposed body parts. And honestly, I would look at both and focus on the most radical, I'm sure.


what is the least expensive, least complicated, best way for a current student to go live in france for a year with the option to work and learn french?

I'm in France right now- To go to France for an extended period of time (over 90 days) you will need to apply for a visa.  If you want to study and work have some money saved up so that when you can support yourself on just a part-time job.  If you don't know any French, start learning.  And when you get here- I assume you mean that you want to live in Paris, there are the most options there- start apartment hunting immediately and also go to the American Library in Paris.  You'll need to do some research before you come on where you want to live.  I could help you more if I had more details- hope it helps.


My dad wants to use his computer in his room.His computer is too old for high speed.We share a phone line. Can he connect to a dial up mail service?

Yes, in fact you can have dial-up and DSL on the same computer on the same phone line.  I use the dial-up modem for my fax.


How can i get a color document to print all in black and white?  ( the printer is screwed up, and black ink will work best)

Go to file,Click page setup, Click printer button, click properties, click color tab, check print in grayscale. Good Luck!


...but you're happily married, and so is he.\n\nIt's really strange that these feelings would arrise, because i was very angry with him for a very long time, i know even if in some parallel universe we somehow got together again that he wouldn't be good for me, and i proably still can't stand him but don't spend enough time around him anymore to be reminded of that.\n\nWow...i think i'm nuts.


I have qualified for this interview coming up for my Medical School admission and i would like people to help me with some tips about the process and how to make a positive impact.I am 18yo male. Any help regarding this would be highly appreciated.\np.s. Any idea what do they generally ask. I need some serious help!!

i assume you are interviewing for an 8 year program so this is quite a bit different to the interview process i went through for med school, but there are still some points that i can give for advice.\n\n1. have something non-academic that you are passionate about and think about it before hand.  they want to know that you are a well-rounded student and are eager to learn about everything.\n\n2. read, read and read some more.  the year before I applied i kind of made it my goal to be familiar with the current state of healthcare.  i was asked several times what i thought the state of healthcare would be in 10 years when i was practicing.  so be able to talk about the problems with our current healthcare systems, new directions medicine is taking (noninvasive care, gene therapy, preventive medicine, etc.) as well as any issues that particularly important to you (indigent care, family practice..whatever)\n\n3. know why you want to go to medical school.  really.  think about it.  don't just repeat your personal statement, they've read that.  it's a big decision so make sure you know why you're going into it.\n\n4. have questions for them.  it is always good to have a list of school-specific questions to ask at the end of your interview.   it shows that you're very interested and if you hit the right topics, you can let them show off their school (every interviewer loves talking up their institution).\n\n5. a simple one, but one that can ruin the process...don't be late.  if you are not familiar with the area, get there the day before and do a test run or if you don't have an extra day, just get there extra early and hang out at a coffee shop nearby and prepare.  there's nothing worse than rushing from the airport to an interview and getting there with no time to prep.\n\nhope this helps...good luck\n\noh, and you can always check out forums.studentdoctor.net but beware...the people who post on their are very aggressive and cutthroat.


I have been with my boyfriend for a year.We get along soooooo great- have never even had a fight! But 1)I have two girls, ages 8 and 9, and he does not seem 'into' kids, though he says he wants kids (he's already 34 and never married!) and also my situation, I am a poor single mom with these girls and no child support, so I rent rooms, and now I have told him that i am going to live in a motel (because I am sick of renting a room, but can't afford more. HE drives a Porsche, isn't rich, but I feel bad that we love each other, yet he has not felt kind towards my girls, nor has he wanted to live together (though we spend every weekend together!) I drive 30 miles each way to see him,in my old car.Is it just me, or is he a jerk, or at the very least, maybe the gap between our financial status scares him?He says it does not bother him that i am poor (he does not buy me anything, nor do I ask!!), but I wonder.Now that I am going to move into a hotel and he was faced with (read below)

I mean i could kinda accept it if they didn't flaunt it so much! Shouldn't they just find someone of the same gender like normal people?

Yes, I think we should all keep our sexual preferences to ourselves.


I want to continue my study,\nmy basic is graphic design, \ncan u help me to give advice for some spesific faculty or subjects for the next step?\nanyway what do I need to continue my study? perhaps I need to make such proposal?\nhow much the cost that I have to prepare?\nmy destination it`s perhaps Japan...

Congratulation !. You indeed a very good person, care to learn more and almost clear for your future. \n\nIf you really want to study in Japan, you must learned Japanese and meet the required proficiency because Japan didn't used other languages much because they translate everything into Japanese.\n\nIf you're searching for relevant colleges or universities, you better ask Japan Embassy in your country because you must make sure that those qualifications accredited by your country ministry of education because there are so many things that you could find in Japan you can't find in other places and this is a natural phenomenone for a non-stop developing country like Japan.\n\nThe 2 critical issues are Japanese language proficiency and accreditation on qualifications. Good Luck !.

I have to do a Term Paper and the topic is how are women portrayed in medieval literature. I have only found a few sites to begin my research and I need to have a least one book source? What are some good sources for this topic online and in books? What would be a good angle to take to structure my thesis statement?

Women's literature\n\nWhile it is true that women in the medieval period were never accorded full equality with men (in fact, misogynist tracts abound, although many sects, such as the Cathars, afforded women greater status and rights), some women were able to use their skill with the written word to gain renown. Religious writing was the easiest avenue—women who would later be canonized as saints frequently published their reflections, revelations, and prayers. Much of what is known about women in the Middle Ages is known from the works of nuns such as Clare of Assisi, Bridget of Sweden, and Catherine of Siena.\n\nFrequently, however, the religious perspectives of women were held to be unorthodox by those in power, and the mystical visions of such authors as Julian of Norwich and Hildegard of Bingen provide insight into a part of the medieval experience less comfortable for the institutions that ruled Europe at the time. Women wrote influential texts in the secular realm as well—reflections on courtly love and society by Marie de France and Christine de Pizan continue to be studied for their glimpses of medieval society.\n\n\nThere are a couple of good links there.  Good luck!

I'm 15 years old and I have never been on a date, or kissed.\nI dont have any friends.\nI do home-schooling so its really hard for me to meet people.\nIts not as simple as joining clubs or youth groups, thats just not possible at the moment.\nI feel like I'll have to wait until next year till I can meet some people. I start TAFE next year.\nI get so lonely.\nEven though I'm just 15 I find myself craving love. Not the friendly kind either.\nI feel like I've already grown up, because of the things I had to deal with when I was younger.\nWhich moves me onto...\nI like older men.\nI know. "Its sick!!" "You twisted freak"\nI cant help it though.\nI dont know why I like them, I just..I think its because my parents got divorced when I was really young and I lived with my mother.\nOr something.\nI dont know.\nI feel like my life is going nowhere soon.\nI cant do year 11 or 12, so I cant go to university.\nFor various reasons I wont go into.\nI just feel confused and ... overwhelmed sometimes.

Well if you're 15 then you still have the rest of your life ahead of you and believe me, there will be more than enough opportunities to get to do the things you want.\n\nI would like to say that in this world there are all kinds of people though I still admire those most who have seen real life and real situations and understand life better than most today. So if you've had rough times then take it as a blessing in disguise.\n\nFurther, I understand that you're craving for certain things you wish you would have. Well, here I would like to say that you're quite young to get into serious relationships right now. I would suggest that right now you get to make friends and enjoy those friendships. Believe it or not, relationships too have their own share of complications and right now you already have enough to think about. When the time is right, you’ll have your fair share at relationships too.\n\nIn the given time you should concentrate on your career and studies. Give it ‘top priority’ right now and I can only assure you that you would never regret your decision later.\n\nIt's you who has to help you, so decide wisely. Don't be hasty and follow everyone else. Learn to enjoy and make the most of what you have at the right time and that way you'll really cherish whatever life offers you.\n\nHope you'll be strong enough to make the right decisions and make the most of what you've got. \n\nIf you're determined, then for you the sky's the limit. All you have to do is think wisely and be persevering to accomplish your goals in life.\n\nWish you all the very best.\n\nTake care.


I need my email vigin_pig@yahoo.com without any ".hk" sign.

Posting an email address on the internet is bad news\nEmail addresses that are exposed through public services such as newsgroups, forums and web pages are fairly easily gathered by spammers using spiders (a kind of internet robot). Newsgroups are particularly prone to harvesting, as are web pages. Some search engines are also a source of addresses, and some "search engines" exist mainly to gather addresses from registrants.\n\nWhen posting to public newsgroups and forums most people "mung" their email address (sometimes called spoofing). Often they use a disposable address as well, as double insurance: when the spam gets too much the address is discarded or pointed to an anti-spam service.\n\nSome people mung their email address by simply adding a term such as "NOSPAM" within the address; eg daveNOSPAM@hotmail.com or dave@NOSPAMhotmail.com. This is not likely to be effective against the more sophisticated robots, which should be easily trained to recognise obvious terms such as this. The second version is also not a good idea on another account: there may really be a domain nospamhotmail.com (or whatever term you use) and that domain will suddenly begin to get loads of spam.\n\nA better method is to add a subdomain into the email address, for example dave@spamisevil.hotmail.com (the intervenind dot is important). It is very unlikely, if you choose the word or phrase carefully, that such a subdomain exists at that domain. Of course, if you have total control over your own mail service you could always set up such a subdomain and pass all mail directly to an anti-spam service. But that's another subject entirely.


American saved Millions of Muslims from Milosevic and yet Muslims never give the USA credit for it, in fact, they rewarded the USA shortly after with 911.\n\nHave you ever met a Muslim who gave credit to the USA for their sacrifice that had no other purpose but to save Muslims? Its ironic because no other country or no other people have ever really done such a thing for another people before, and yet Muslims have made America their enemy. How disgusting Islam is...how very filthy

Ok Russian American person! Dont make me hurt you now! LOL! PS Forget about religion what about people! Yes real people! Are you the type of person that helps a granny accross the road and then charges her a Dollar? Grrr!!!!Heidi

Hilary is a bright, tough lady.  I think she would make a great President, almost as good as Bill was. (Lousy husband, GREAT President). She's very savvy politcally and maybe she can figure some way out of this morass the Bush Bunch got us into.  Man, he couldn't wait to invade Iraq, could he? First Cabinet meeting, he told them he wanted to find a way to do it. Congratulations, Bushy, ya done it!\n\nAnd how about that deficit? Wow!  You set a record there, George.  Highest in our history.  \n\nAnd, let's don't forget, you're our first (s)elected President.  YAY!!!!


I am sleeping with a married man. I know its wrong and that i should not be doing it but i just can't stop myself. Will someone please help me. Why am I so caught up in this. I really like him and could see myself married to him. Even thought i know he cheats. I know i should end this but how do i do that cuz i have tried. I was sleeping with him one time before and stopped but i went back to him for some reason. If I stopped one time y can't i stop this time. I just can't explain this feeling i have inside me with i am with him. Everthing is different this time then it was the first time.

hi,first of all u knew from the start that what you did was wrong.i think you love him and i think u see something that u did'nt see in other man but u need to accept the truth that he will not be your's forever.he already belong to someone else and i think what should u do is to hang-out with your friends and meet people and try to forget him and someday the right guy will come along and you will be surprise.have faith and respect to yourself.u deserve to be happy! and there are millions of guy in this world so don't waste your beauty and time to him.goodluck

for high school age or right out of high school age only.

In high school!  He has to be nice.  Kind of good looking, but not so much so that he thinks he is hot.  I have a lot of guys approach me who think they are Mr. Kool.\nSomeone with good grades, don't want to hook up to a looser.\nSomeone who knows computers.  All the girls go for football players, not me.  When you get out of school you will be supporting yourself.  A guy with direction, going to college.  Have his own car.Someone who makes me laugh.\nDoesn't have to beat up people to prove he is a man.\nI guess my bf now was a really good friend that is starting to be something more.  He doesn't have a car.  But he is nice, so that's OK.  Isn't afraid to laugh and have fun.\nSome guys are serious, tough guys.  Pick on people to show off.  My folks say those are the ones who beat you up later.


Ladies who use pads (tampon users can politely sit this out please). I just found out about these pretty, lingerie-like sanitary belts that hold a pad in place for that time-o-the-month. I used the stick on kind for years (I'm 25), but these belts rock! Snug, don't stick to me (ouch!), don't move around in my undies, don't bunch up to themselves, no leaks, etc. Who else out there is using them or likes them? Three of my friends referred me to them - they are apparently much better than the old kind - and thin too.

I had no idea.  I was looking through a really old magazine once...at least 30 yrs old..and it was so funny because there was an ad for no more velcro pads....says something about being free to do whatever you want now.  LOL  It came with a belt I think.\nCan you let me know where I can find out more indo on this.  At the very least..I am really curious about it.\nThanks! \n:)


I love gymnastics but have just recently started...Im nowhere near competition level. I am still in highschool and wanted to know: what is the oldest that a person could start gymnastics to compete at a college level? I am very serious about gymnastics and I love the sport. I go to all of my classes and almost all of the open gym sessions...Could I possibly make it at a college level if I train really hard?

I started gymnastics when I was 5 and finished my career due to a back injury (as a junior in high school) as a Level 9.  Gymnastics is one of the most difficult sports to master.  You can compete in college as a level 9 (I think) but most college gymnasts are Level 10's or elite gymnasts.  It takes years of training your body to become what it needs to be to perform the difficult skills you would need to compete at a college level.  I would say at the most age 10 or 11 would be the oldest you could be to gain the necessary skills.  Unless you are uniquely blessed with talent, I would say that is an unrealistic goal.  I have coached gymnastics for 5 years and have never seen anyone start gymnatics after hitting puberty and being able to compete at a high level.  Hope this helps.


Why are you so closed of to Christianity? I mean, I know, there a plenty of reasons to be. Bad experinces basically sums it up. People doing bad stuff in the name of God, people being blatant hypocrites, or just annoying. Or you WERE but something bad happened.\n\nI know there's a gazillion reasons not to, but just listen: Jesus DIED FOR YOU. He really loves you. Just give him a chance? You've tried so many things in your life, why not try this?\n\nTwo things that really bother me are Christians giving others a bad name and people that can't or won't open up when its so important.\n\n(I know I'm going to get some mad people answering this...please try to be nice. Lame excuse but here it is anyway: I'm 14. =) Thanks for listening

Sorry, I just think it's not true.  Jesus had a good message.  Martin Luther King had a better one.  I don't believe in supernatural things.

i'm usin outlook express for the first time. i don't even know how to sign in my Hotmail account so that i could SEND/RECEIVE mails

Go to your Hotmail account in your web browser and look around in their help files. They'll walk you through setting up a mail client like Outlook.\n\nHowever, you HAVE to have a VERY old account to do this with. Hotmail recently made it so that you CAN'T get emails from Outlook with newer accounts at all. If your account is too young, then you can't do it at all, unless you get a paid account.


Somebody cut me off yesterday (he had road rage and came really close to hitting me) and I was pissed off but I cooled down and afterwards my heart began to hurt why is this?

The after effects of your near collision caused your heart to hurt. That's a delayed stress effect. You could also have had a slight heart-attack. If the pain continues or ifthis happens again, you MUST go to the doctor.


Should we impeach Bush for the destruction he has done to this country?

Absolutely.  It has nothing to do with anything Clinton did or didn't do.  Bush is by far the worst leader in the history of Earth.


and questions like: y=2f(x).\n\nAlso when  a graph has the function y=f(kx) what happens to the graph - is it a rotation? And is this different to y=kf(x)?\nWhat does f(x) actually mean? Thanks.

Almost all managers outside of Connie Mack and for awhile John McGraw all managers have worn uniforms.   However back in the late 1800's and early 1900's the managers were almost always playing managers, but if you look at pictures from the 1910's and 1920's you will usually see the managers in uniforms.

It should be explanatory,clear and very conceptual.how to relate function on a plane, arthematically,set representationetc? I am really in the very need of it.

If there are two variables (in a plane i.e. 2Dimension) that if one (independent variable) changes value the other (dependent variable) also changes its value then the relationship between the two variables is called function. This means that these two variables are linked in such a way that it is imposible to change the value of one keeping the other fixed at a certain value.\n\nLet 'x' and 'y' be such two variables. Now, y=f(x) means 'y' expressed as function of 'x' that is this relation gives a value (or may also give more than one value) for a single value of 'x'. Accordingly the 'y' is called single valued (if one value of 'x' corresponds to only one value of 'y'; y=2*x, for x=4, y=8, thus only one value of 'y' for one value of 'x') or multi-valued (if one value of 'x' corresponds to more than one value of 'y"; y=sqrt(x), for x=4, y=+2 or -2, thus two values for one value of 'x') function of 'x'.\n\nA function on a plane means a function involving two variables because two values (abscissae and ordinate in Cartesian reference frame; radius vactor and its inclination angle in Polar  reference frame; etc.) are sufficient to locate a point uniquely in a plane. A plane function represents either a curve or a straight line. The domain of the function is the range of values within which the abscissae lies and the range of the function is the range of values within which the ordinate lies. There is not any direct link between the Set Theory and the Function apart from the terms "domain" and "range" which have already been mentioned.


A black hole is believed to be a neutron star that collapsed in itself because of extreme gravity. The gravity would get so strong that it forces even time and space into itself including light (that's why it's called black). Also associated with a "wormhole" and figured to be a portal to parallel universes or looped back to this universe in a different time, after the theory of the Einstein-Rosen-Bridge.\nI don't know if someone tried to measure the value of the gravity or if there is even a speculated formula but I don't think so.


I'm not sure how long this has been going on, but my palms are generally very itchy. I notice it most when I'm typing on my keyboard at work, and when I'm driving. It's possible my mind is just otherwise occupied other times and I dont' notice it, but it's REALLY annoying. It's not 'tickly', it's itchy. My skin is not dry, I have no allergies - skin or otherwise.\nPlease no stupid responses....I'm asking a legitimate question and would really like legitimate responses...whether factual or theoretical.  THANK YOU :)

Okay, well, both times that you notice the itchy sensation you are restricting on the carpal tunnel.  Maybe this is a predecessor to carpal tunnel syndrome, which is a painful condition of the wrists.  Make sure that you support your wrists when typing.  \nOtherwise, are you sure you are not allergic to any cleansing agents used on keyboards and steering wheels?

I just want to know how do I put an image at the location of X, Y, and how do I CHANGE X and Y.  I'd like to be abl to have 2 versions of this code, one where I am able to set the movement myself, and another where I can 'click and drag' the graphic (such as a chess piece or checker?)  JPGs have great color as GIFs seem splochy, but only GIFs/PNGs have transparency, although I've heard rumours of transparent JPeGs! A versitle code that can use all 3 would be nice.

i tryed to send you a email but some how it did not go through so i am "answering" here. you are very ignorant about macs. i have worked with a lot of pcs both fast and slow, and never had any thing but problems with them. all pcs are junk compared to macs. macs never get viruses, have the best hardware in the world, and have been rated the best computer of any price. they last long, have all good software, pcs have a lot more software but most of it is junk and if you got rid of all the bad stuff there would be less for pc than theere is for mac. i know what a good computer is and you dont. i will never use a pc again. my mac is the best computer i have ever had, and when i need a new computer i will get a mac. PCs STINK.


but is it normal 4 girls 2 have hair in their nose?

Yes, it is normal. Try plucking them with tweezers or get some manicuring scissors to trim them down. You don't have to be embarrassed.


If the manager or HR department searches online and finds my resume, what would be the consequence?  Please good advice =)  Thanks.

let me say this\nthe best time to look for anew job is while you still have your job..\nthis way your getting a pay check and if you have to go on an interview you either go home early or call in for vacation day or use sick time.. or even if you take the day off and do not get paid for that day..\nyou go back tomorrow and still have a job..\nSO this is the best time to look for a job.. is when you have a job..\nAND I would not worry about your HR finding out..most high earners are always looking to see what's out there..just in case they can get more money ..then they go for it...\nif they ask you..just tell them..your just curious to see what out there..that you really do not have any intentions of leaving..this would be a god time to bring up the raise and more benefits your are looking for ..ask them if they can give you more...if they say NO WAY..just smile and ask one more time..then smile and say no problem..I love it here..and MEAN IT..say can't blame a guy for trying..HA HA..\nand star really looking HARD for a new job..once they ask you..then you are better off getting a new job..\nbut if you do not start looking now..you may be forced taking a job you do not want just to make a pay check\nGood Luck\nand God Bless\nsmile


I've already applied for Fafsa and I got very little money from them because of various reasons. My school gave me the most they give, which is half tuition, but that means I still have to pay the other half. My problem is that I have no credit. Period. Also, my cosigner options are pretty much non existant. I'm at a loss. I've applied for one already, but was, quite obviously, declined. Any suggestions?

You do not need a co-signer for Stafford Loans (this is the type of loan your school should have offered you). They also do not require a credit check and are guaranteed by the government, so if you do not pay after you finish school they really will garnish your wages, take your income tax, ext. until they are paid in full.


Death will come is for sure, but why do we all live as if this will never happen to us. Are we fake or merely cheat ourself.

Life is short at 100 years, you dont even get time to think over. It neither is the most enduring, lovable thing you go thro with - it freakin 100 years! - you gota get bored! heck i cant even stay thro a 3 hour movie!\n\nIf you believe in death, you should also belive in life after death, so next time on, you could be playB@y's (hugh hefner) grandson or something. try for such a life next time.


My computer started by just a prblem with the graphics card so all i thought i had to do was buy a new one the virus prtection I have says there are no viruses and now it is slowing down and sometimes won't start...this comoputer is not hooked up to the internet...

I would do a system clean up. Then I would defrag and remove programs I dont need from the computer. Also you might have a lot of start up programs that turn on when your windows start up.\n\nGo to Start Menu, click RUN. \nType msconfig and hit enter. \nYou should see a pop up box.\nGo to Startup tab and uncheck all the programs that you do not want on your start up. \nThis will prevent those programs from starting up when you restart windows. \nThis will usually make your computer go a little faster if you have do not have much memory on your computer.\n\nI know for a fact it will help a lot if you put more memory (RAMS) into your computer. Go to Control Panel and then go to Systems. Find out how much memory you have. If you only have like 128MB RAM, then an upgrade is definitely needed.

does it work? does it hurt? how much does it cost?

Talk to an eye specialist, like an ophamologist, to discuss all the benefits and the potential risks about it. Cost varies but I've read between 1000 and 2000 dollars per eye.


April, salvation is a gift that you have to receive but I believe you can also later reject it. Look at the parable of the sower were seed was sown on different ground. Jesus said IF you remain in me I will remain in you. I would loved to believe in once saved always saved but there are just to many warnings in the bible. We still have free will once we are saved, God is not going to drag anybody into heaven. I know the devil sure doesn't give up once your saved. I also don't believe it's something that you can loose just like that for committing a sin and dieing at that moment. I believe you are in danger when you make a conscience decision to go back to the world. I believe that this is easier for a new christian than a more mature one. I don't believe a christian has to live in fear of loosing their salvation.


I like CSI Vegas.  I love the mystery & crimes.  Its very interesting watching all the forensics & technology they use to solve the crimes (whether it can actually be done or not it makes for great entertainment!)


My neice is a spoiled little 13 year old.  Her mother is a single mom that spoils her rotten.  She will find anyway to convince her mom about getting what she wants.  For her birthday she got an IPOD mini and expected it.  Only a few months later she is expecting a cell phone.  I'm so aggravated.  She's not my kid, but at the same time I want to say something.  Also, how when she is in my house, how to I get her to show some respect towards our family.  MY husband and her have a close relationship because he is the only father figure in her life.  But, whenever she comes over she is so disrespectful.  I want to tell her firmly without hurting her feelings that what she is doing is wrong without her mother coming up to me and confronting me and making me look bad.

When she behaves like that ask her how she would feel if you treated her the way she treats you.  \n\nYou are not her mother so there is very little you can do.  You have to let things go because she is not your child.  Unfortunately, her mother is raising a child that will turn into an uphappy adult.


Dwayne Wade for the Miami Heat wears black tights underneath his uniform, but what are they for?

It keeps them warm so they can run looser and because the NBA overcools arena's.

I am really confused about this whole thing. How do we choose the faculty for a degree we are doing and what does a Major mean. So now if I am going to do a degree in child psychology, how will I know what will I major in? And is it up to me to choose the BA or BSC faculty?

Your major is Child Psychology. Just like I have my BA in Psychology, Psychology was my major. Regarding the BA and the BSC it depends on what your university offers. If they offer both you can chose if they only offer one you need to take that one.


Calvin and Hobbes is my alltime favorite comic. I love the imagination of Calvin and his outlook on the world.

The best thing about them is the humour in each comic strip I read. The behaviour was pranky, but not to the level of discomfort. The Hobbes-change-from-doll-to-real-mate is a must not to be missed favorite thing of mine! Don't you just WISH that this can happen to our lives? You are good in spotting good cartoons, mate. High Five! I share this favorite with you!


I am thinking about enlisting in the army reserves and was wondering if you can take a course through them that will eventually give you a degree. I also want to know if it is more beneficial for me to enlist and miss my first semester of college, or do the summer thing, and do it throughout college. My recruiter explained that the semester thing would be my best bet...but I don't know. And how can I get ready for boot camp?

If you join the Army to be a linguist, then you can most definitely learn Chinese. I don't know about getting a degree on the Army side. I know the Air Force has what's called the CCAF (Community College of the Air Force). They help you get a degree. They also help pay for school. For me, there was nothing more rewarding than joining the military. They're like a second family to me. \n\nIf you want to get ready for boot camp. Do a lot of cardio. Run, do sit ups, push ups, everything. Drink a lot of water and avoid foods and drinks high in sugar.\n\nI wish you the best of luck. Hope it works out for you.


My best friend is having her second baby next month and she wants me to name to name HIM. I have been thinking about the name "Angel Amadeo" but i really don't think she'll like it. I really need help finding a name that is stylish, fun and rare and that has a positve meaning . \n\nSo please list at least 8 boy names that are stylish and fun and rare...please give the meaning of the name...

Caelam - from Latin, meaning heavenly\n\nCaellum - from Celtic, meaning brave warrior\n\nColm - from Irish, meaning dove\n\nOther Irish names:\n\nKieran - little dark one\n\nKelly or Kelley - warrior or defender\n\nConall - high, mighty\n\nGorry - peace from God\n\nMalachy - my angel\n\nDonal - ruler of the world

ok now ive had a lot of trouble at school for fighting swearing etc and im sick and tierd of it so if think schools should forced to follow law and constiun say agree

Your question isn't entirely clear, but I'll try to respond to what I think you are saying. You seem to be claiming that you have some sort of Constitutional right to swear and fight in school. Perhaps you think that you are protected by the First Ammendment, and that you can express yourself however you choose. \n\nHowever, you are misinterpreting the rights that the First Ammendment gives you. You have no right to express yourself through violence, and you can't even say things that are likely going to incite others to violence.\n\nIf you have a more specific question, I'd be happy to answer it for you. I'm a law student at Pepperdine, and I can probably help you get the answers that you're looking for.\n\nAnyway, if it makes you feel any better, I used to get in trouble for fighting too, and so I can relate to your frustration. However, you have no legal recourse against the school for disciplining you. Good luck, and try to stay out of trouble.\n\n\n(Update:) Again, I'd like to reiterate that you have no Constitutional protection for the type of things you're talking about. At best, you have an argument for self-defense. \n\nBe careful though, you cannot even physically defend yourself in all cases, even when someone else is the aggressor. You have to feel threatened. So if the threat is someone who is smaller than you for example, you'll have a more difficult time making the case. But even if the other person was the aggressor and was also bigger than you, you may still not have a legitmate self-defense claim. \n\nYou are also legally required to take any reasonable steps you can to get out of the situation before you can fight back. This means that if you can run away safely - you have to run away. Of course, its not easy to back down, especially if the other person is the one who "started it", \n\nYou probably have the attitude that you're not going to back down to anyone if they started it. I was the same way. Even if it was me against ten people, I'd go down fighting before I ever backed down. If you do find yourself in this situation, you can make the claim that "running away" wasn't a reasonable alternative.\n\nYou have to make the administration believe that you tried to diffuse the situation, but the person was so aggresive that you had no reasonable alternative but to defend yourself (i.e., they are charging you, or are swinging wildly.). \n\nOnce again, I wish you the best of luck. Try to stay out of these situations, and remember that you do not have any First Amendment protection here. Your best legal defense in this case is self-defense.


I have a set of files around 1000. All the 1000 files have the same number of records. Only 1 file has different records and other files have the same records. Is there any way to find out this unique file is a very quick manner without checking each and every file?

Why in the world would you have 999 files storing the exact same information?  Sounds obsessive/compulsive if you ask me.\n\nIn any case, you will have to read at least 3 files (you need to find two that match in order to know you have the one that does not).  You are going to have to loop through until you find the target file.  Odds are you will find it by the 500th try.  You stop when you find it.  The only way you have to read all 1000 is if the odd file is the 1000th file.

I have a notebook using MAC OS9 but it 's not easy to use. I want install using WIndows? I don't know. IBook can work?

Bootcamp is for Intel Macs only.  Virtual PC would be what you want to use, but I doubt you could find it since Apple doesn't support OS9, not to mention if your computer is that old, it would be too slow to run XP properly through modulation.  OS X is a far better operating system than 9 or windows.  I would recommending biting the $1000 bullet and getting a MacBook.  Your OS 9 apps, however will not run on machines with Intel processors, so you may end up paying for some upgrades.


Is Xanax really an effective drug for Anxiety? cause I've been taking it for 3 years now and my anxiety keeps coming back, any clue?

No.  What happens with Xanax is potentiation.  After awhile, the drug stops working until you increase the dose (which is dangerous after a certain point).  Once you have to stop taking the drug, you experience intense rebound anxiety.  It is very bad in the short term but can also be of moderate intensity for years after you stop taking the drug.

its been quite a while, um... wenever i sit up or stand up i feel dizzy and gets these headaches for like a minute and black out like i can't see anything. my mum says its nothing but i m not sure. it happens all the time\nis there there something wrong?\ndo i need to see a docter?

My daughter had the very same symptoms and we had her see a neurologist.  He did all of the tests and said she needed to drink more water.  For some reason some people require more water to function properly.  I thought it was crazy but since she has increased her water intake she hasn't had the problems anymore.


I think so. Right now we just got out of medieval times and we still in the middle of evolution. We're nothing but modern caveman. I strongly belive one day people will think less than an individual but more like beings what work together. I don't mean communism. But a fair living together. There is enough resources for every single being, even today. But most goes to the rich, industrial countries. What do you think?

Yes, when Christ returns.  Not one moment sooner.


New PC - rec'd 6 mos. AOL free. My email acct. is with Yahoo and I don't want to change. I can pull it up and read mail but am unable to Reply or Send anything from Yahoo - I can send from AOL. Dell said call AOL - I did but AOL said it's a Yahoo problem. Can this be corrected? Thanks.

Sounds like you need to switch to "plain text" mode for composing messages.  You can do this by clicking the "Options" link in the upper right corner of Yahoo Mail, then click the "General Preferences" link and choose the "plain text" option for Composing Emails.  Finally click the "Save" button.


I really want to avoid surgery, but I don't even know if that is an option.  it is pretty severe.  Sometimes, the pain gets so bad, I cry.

Actually, there's really nothing much to the surgery. I had a lapascopy(not sure of spelling) it's where they use a camera.All they did,was to cut 4 tiny incisions which are not noticable at all unless I point them out. If you opt for the surgery, it's usually just an overnight stay and you're good to go home the next morning unless there are unforseen complications like in my case. Don't mean to scare you but I had unforseen complications but this is very very rare. It was only because I was already in such grave(no pun intended)condition. I thought I was just suffering from real bad heartburn so by the time I took my self to the emergency room, my gallbaldder was about to burst, so I was rushed into surgery and the doctor doing it didn't get the whole infection out or something. But you should have nothing to worry about. I was a rare case. Everyone else I seen in the hospital during my stay went home the next day just feeling fine and dandy. Good luck in whatever you decide. I would opt for the surgery now before your condition worsens like mine did.


such as in like simpson's, family guy and south park... they do it all the time, and make fun of other shows

Hi, I have a friend 28 years old she recently got married and she has a 9 yr old kid and the new husband doesnt want him to be called by his step son as 'dad', b'cos he is uncomfortable with this. But he likes the kid and wife very much. So can anybody suggest a name , nickname? \nThanks in advance....

how about the guys  name,what is the problem .i called my father by his first name for a while ,but went back to calling him dad.\n\nknow many boys who call their mothers new husband by his first name ,with out any problems ,to call him sir would be like being in the army


Any suggestions of what to take to give a 43 year old mom more energy. I am just so amazed at other peoples homes how clean and organized they are compared to my own.

how old are your kids?  even if they're toddlers they can do stuff to help you out where you're not the only one cleaning up.  all those other organized and clean homes look at the families does everyone in the household take responsibility for their messes probably so or they have several full time maids.\n\nok, what part of stepford do all you posters live in????  the people that created the mess need to learn to be responsible for cleaning it up!!!!!


They ahve told me they're persian names.

don't know the answer, really.\nbut i can tell you that they don't sound Persian (never heard of either before).


Still, wouldn't everything be so much less confusing for all concerned parties if He would just, I don't know, appear in a burning bush as with Moses?  And think of all the converts!

In the past, God did do that. He performed miracles for the Israelites such as the plagues, he got them through the Red Sea, he provided manna for them in the wilderness so that they could survive but even with all that - they still did not do the one thing he asked of them which was to obey him and no other.  So, do you really think that if he provided proof of his existence through a miracle or something that people would believe in him??? The Israelites didn't. But do you know that he does provide proof of his existence today? How you say? Well, look around you - the earth and it's many beautiful and wonderful creations - to start with, there is us as humans. Only a higher power could of created such an intrensic, complex being. There is animals, all of their different kinds, plants, flowers... all of this is a testament to God who created it! He also has provided the bible - which is like a letter from a Father to his children. This provides everything we need to know about how this earth was created, where we have been and where we are going. \nI don't think that by God just appearing or providing a miracle to prove he exists would really do much in making people believe in him - just remember the Israelites.


I think mine is Calvin and Hobbes, but The Far Side is a close second.


Ethiopia is the poor country from the world and what is Ethiopia's palce accourding to the Word Bank Report?

Obviously it depends on the policies followed by the government to generate growth.  However - in 1905 China was responsible for 24% of the world's GDP, 30 years ago they were responsible for 4% & they are now growing fast enough to overtake the US and become the world's largest economy by 2030.  Massive changes in wealth can take place over a few decades.  In the case of Ethiopia a conservative estimate might be 50 years to generate enough growth for their standard of living to match the United States.


My b/f and I have been together almost a year. I am 40 and he is 45.  I am divorced and own my own home.  He has never been married and has never lived with a woman.  He says he plans to move in with me in a few months, but he still only spends the night once a month.  I think he should be staying at least once a week.  What do you think?  Am I wasting my time?  Also, if he does stay on Sat. night he has to be home on Sunday for dinner with mom by 3 p.m.

My now husband and I had this same problem.  He lived at home with Mom and was reluctant to spent the night at my house(I still lived with Mom too)  But I was head over heels with him and I persisted.  I stayed with him as often as I could.  (His MOM hated me at first)  But we were together for almost a year and I sort of moved in.  We spent four great years together with MOM and she began to warm up to me.  If you really like this man then perhaps you have to make a few sacrifices to keep him.  I now live in that very house married to him.(I was a very independent sort of woman no one provided for me an' all that but I gave in to be with him.)


Is there anything special that I do. Like last weeks episode? Was there a phone # to call this week?

On the hanso website go to newsletter and type in a username any thing works but remember it for later then weird stuff happens and u need to say yes to the question when asked for the password type in 'breaking strain' then more cool weird stuff happens..... that's all i have found sooo far


I don't want to get a lawyer unless I have to.\n\nWasn't sure what category to put it under!

You can buy software programs pretty cheap that will walk you through a simple will.  Then take it to a notary to be witness and signed.  I took mine to my bank.  I would put it in my safety box at home.  There is sometimes problems getting it out of your deposit box at the bank.


thats a very ambitious project! even for a simple CPU. I cant really help design one, but the manufacturers usually can sell you the rights to use one they have had done. they arent cheap, but if you use it in volume it "may" be worth it. if its just for a learning experience, "Good Luck"!


I will give you 10 points.  The most thourough and accurate person wins.

What I tell you about Freemasonry will only be MY truth, not some other people's quotations, not something you can google. I will link you to MY Order of Freemasonry and let you read more (but only if you wish to.) Points? If you wish to. The important truth here is that you asked. OK?\n\nFirst, no one knows how far back Freemasonry goes. Many of us believe it is a descendant from the Ancient Mystery Schools of the Middle East. Certainly numbers and geometry play great parts in our work. There are those who say we have roots in the Knights Templar. There are, after all, in many Orders of Freemasonry a degree or more designated to correspond with those men. Some say that all of that is just convenient legends made up to add mystery and to sucker folks in. \n\nSecond, there are many different Orders of Freemasonry. The Order I belong to, American Co-Masonry, is very esoteric and places a great deal of emphasis on the slower alchemy of personal transformation. We also are different from most other Orders in that we admit women and men into Lodge. I am not talking Eastern Star, but fully into the Brotherhood. We admit all races, all religions but you must believe in a Supreme Being in our particular Order. There are even Orders of Freemasonry where that is NOT a requirement. In ours it is a requirement. \n\nWe are more than just a social club, more than just a club that does good for charities; although, both are part of Freemasonry. We are a way of helping make the world better by helping humans make themselves better. We study morality and try to practice it in our own lives. Simply put, we try to live by the Golden Rule: "Do unto others as you would want them to do unto you."\n\nWe use the working tools of real stone masons as allegorical symbols to remind ourselves of principles. Thus you see those tools as symbols everywhere after you become a Freemason and see their application too. Funny thing, when you join and ask what a certain symbol means, you are asked, "What does it mean to you?" The others are not mocking you; they want you to find answers within yourself and to help them find answers, too.\n\nWe work together because stones are smoothed (big analogy here) best by rubbing together. We work in Lodge and out of Lodge. Not the conspiracy business. I do not have a Ferrari. I did get to sit in one owned by a non-Mason the other day and it was too small. *sigh* We talk and email each other with encouragement and insight. \n\nWe are not for everyone. You have to be of legal age (21 in most places, sometimes 18 for children of Freemasons). You have to be free. You have to be of good moral character. \n\nI belong to two Lodges: one in Santa Cruz, CA and one in Los Angeles. I drive 360 miles round trip to each one each month. That is 720 miles. Lots of gas. We have very little time for socializing. We get our Lodge set up, do our ceremony, put away the Lodge furniture, have a quick potluck, and drive home. I am an officer of both Lodges. I do work outside the Lodge for both. \n\nWhat do I get from it? My daughter (23 years old and pretty cynical Libra, IQ at least 10 pts higher than mine) says that she sees a change in me. That I am more capable, less stressed, kinder to myself, more at peace, a lot more honest, even better to my ex-wife. \n\nOh, guess I should address the business of secrets. There are some. We have handshakes, certain words, etc that are traditional means of recognition. I suppose you could google around and find most of those. Cannot guarantee they would get you very far into a Lodge. There is a great deal of memorization work. I had to work pretty hard to learn all that took to get proficient in the first degree and second in order eventually to become a Master Mason (3rd degree). That is not so much a secret as it is a tough part of Masonry. \n\nOh, the real secret? Want to know that? I could put it in words all day but it really would not mean anything to you. Let us leave it wit


i mean, there are so many stages and bands.\ncan someone tell me all about it?\nit's my first time going.\nany precautions?

it's outdoors\nand they have all different stages with different bnds playing all at one time\nthere should be a time schedule by the entrance for the bigger bands\nFor the smaller bands, you might have to go to their table(which are all set up around kinda like a flea market) and ask them. Being a piece of paper with you to write down all the times.\n\nIf you want to see a big band, you'll probably have to be at the stage 3 bands before they go on if you want to get to the front.\n\nYou are allowed one water bottle i think. BRING IT. And a lot of money for shirts and stuff. Dont wear anything you like(obviously) and go under the showers as much as you can. Comfortable shoes of course(no flip flops). Wear sunscreen....LOTS.


I am taking a Medical Assiting class and we were discuss a comment another student made that a Medical Assistant is basically the same thing as being an LPN. I am not trying to insult any LPN this just has my curosity up. Thanks for any imput...

Some states vary with their LPN and CMA duties. \n"Generally", and not every case- Medical Assistants are limited to working in clinics and doctors offices. LPNs can work in clinics, doctors offices, hospitals and emergency rooms, ect. Both can administer meds, and are pretty much close in responsibilities. CMAs work closely with docs in their clinics, and LPNs too, but in hospitals you work more on your own, and can be made charge nurse,  being over a group of LPNs and nursing assistants.\nThis is just my opinions but anyways CMAs are more of an office setting, and LPNs are more of a hospital/clinical setting. Good luck with your courses


The min req is `D` at maths and i have `F` so ive lied about it and got a provisional place.  At the moment im doing key skills maths so it will be up to scratch eventually I`m just telling a little lie to get ahead :)  Is this bad and will i get thrown off course?

You are likely to get thrown out of the course when they receive your transcripts. Take a math class and prove you can do the math. Lying is NEVER the answer. What if you successfully complete the course and then they find out and revoke your certificate?\n\nBy the way, to successfully complete your course you are going to need to understand the math. Electrical theory is all explained using math.


I am positive that I saved a document to my computer however I have used the "Search" and everything and I can't find it. I have noticed that sometimes my computer saves my work in some obscure places and I sometimes don't find them until its too late. I would love to hear any suggestions! Please help!

open up what program you were using and usaully they have a list of the most recent documents open it and savfe it to a different location or just look where it was saved


I am trying to make a 45 second c d with 3 songs spliced together, but do not know how to only record a few seconds of a song.

The way that I do it is probably unconventional. There might be an easier way to do it. But you can give this a shot.\n\nI use Windows Media Player to rip a file from a CD to MP3 format, or download an MP3 file.\n\nThen I take it to MusicMatch, where I convert the file from .mp3 to .wav (you may have to download this at musicmatch.com, I believe)\n\nThen onto Sound Record, which comes standard on all windows o/s. you can custom tailor the snippet of your song here.\n(you can find it at Start-->Programs-->Accessories-->Entertainment-->Sound Recorder)\n\nthen back to music match to convert your new .wav back to .mp3\n\nsounds like a pain in the ass... but it's a very easy way to get the job done...


wut ar u like their faithful stalker or something?


I happened to go to one of the parks on the bay and the entire place with packed with ppl celebrating but they all had mexican flags on display???? Why would they do this. Ppl were bbqing and drinking and having fun...were they celebrating the 4th or was it insulting our independence... what do you think of this? I am 10 miles from the mexican border.

it just goes to show that all they want is what america can do for them and not wanting to be americans. if mexico is so great then why did you leave it and why wont you go back
