Ok here's the story: I have a really good friend...really nice girl...but she lives far away and we only see each other like once or twice a year. Well I have a chance to go hang with her for a week next month, but it will also be one of the few weeks I'll be working as a pharmacy technician...really crucial to have that on your app if you're going to pharmacy school.\n\nSo do I go hang with my friend, and figure she'll always be there and I need the college app to look good (and make bank doing it), or do I figure I only have so much time with her and ditch working? Tough one here...

No easy one if she is the one for you she will understand your priorities DO THE APP If she does not understand she is not the one for you. Pick very careful who you invest you emotions in. anyway Do the app.

This is the verse chapter 75:1-4\nI do call to witness the Resurrection Day; \nAnd I do call to witness the self-reproaching spirit; (eschew Evil). \nDoes man think that We cannot assemble his bones? \nNay, We are able to put together in perfect order the very tips of his fingers. \n\nWhy this verse mentions the finger tips and what in particular there is in the finger tips? Why not to mention the eye, the heart, or the tongue, all more complex than the finger tip. I think probably because of the fingerprints which is unique for each human, it is his ID. Isn't this strange to be mentioned in the Quran 1400 years ago while its discovery and use in forensic medicine started only one hundred years ago? What are your opinions?

The holy Quran is full of such miracles but for people who like to think, analyze, and conclude; definitely not for rejecters. Look at such examples:\nChapter 15:22\nAnd We send the fecundating winds, then cause the rain to descend from the sky, therewith providing you with water (in abundance), though ye are not the guardians of its stores.\nWhen did humans discover that the wind carries pollens from one male plant to another female plant?\nAnother example:\nChapter 6:125\nThose whom Allah (in His plan) willeth to guide, He openeth their breast to Islam; those whom He willeth to leave straying, He maketh their breast close and constricted, as if they had to climb up to the skies: thus doth Allah (heap) the penalty on those who refuse to believe.\nWhen did humans discover that when you go up high in the sky the oxygen will be gradually less and then you will fell your chest tight and constricted?


When he comes home from work, he eats dinner and then goes outside. Most of the time, I think he is just acting busy. When it is dark, he comes in, lays on the couch and falls asleep. I don't wake him up anymore to come to bed. He says it's not his fault he has to work and he can't just pay attention to me all the time.

He may be depressed or really stressed. There may be something bothering him and he doesn't want to bother you with it. Ask him if everything is ok. give him some space and time eventually he will come around.


In mathematics the infimum of a subset of some set is the greatest element, not necessarily in the subset, that is smaller than all other elements of the subset. Consequently the term greatest lower bound is also commonly used. Infima of real numbers are a common special case that is especially important in analysis. However, the general definition remains valid in the more abstract setting of order theory where arbitrary partially ordered sets are considered.


I'm training for a marathon and my Dri-Fit and other stuff smells musty...I've tried everything.  Any ideas?

Those odors can be tricky.  I workout 6 days a week, so I have to stay on top of my workout-gear laundry.  It can be a challenge!\n\nHere are a couple of ideas that you might not have tried yet.\n\n - Try using plain distilled white vinegar when you wash the gear, even as a pre-soak.  It will help break up the sweat and odors. \n\n(Test a spot on your gear first, to be sure that the fabric will be okay.)\n\n - Lemon Juice is also recommended.  In my experience, it works well if you soak the clothes in lemon juice+water first. (An hour is good, overnight is better.) then wash. It may have more of a bleaching effect than the Vinegar - so try it with socks first.\n\n - If possible, line dry items. Sunshine is a great help discouraging nasty odors.  If you are drying gear in the dryer, make sure that items are completely dry.\n\n - Specialty cleaners - there are new detergents on the market that are specially designed for workout gear.  Win Detergent is one option (http://www.windetergent.com) and Approach (which was recommended by another responder.)\n\nIn general, I have found that keeping the laundry area clean, and free from dust also helps keep odors at bay. (Dust bunnys love my clothes dryer!)  I have some Febreeze-like odor spray handy, and I make sure that the washer and dryer are not "passing along" any bad odors.\n\n (I give the lint trap a quick spray when I clean it out. )  \n\nGood luck with your training!

I can't be totally alone in this, can I? I have never met another satanist, except on satanist websites, but apart from that, the satanic community looks invisible. Have they all been slain by religious schizos? What the hell happened? If you know any satanist, can you put me in contact?\n\nAnd if you're a Christian, please don't say you'll save me and god loves me. Hell, it's a concept, I don't believe in deities. So leave me the fuck alone with your salvation.

Let me take a moment to go on record as saying that the majority of the responses above more than adequately show the lack of respect and hypocracy that is rampant in the Christian community (see the "Why do Christian's Bash Everyone?" question, where everyone says "we don't bash - other's bash *us*!" mmhmm.)\n\nAnyways, Just to let you know I've seen a steady Satanist community over on beliefnet.  While I may not practice your beliefs (or the Christian's beliefs either) I do respect your right as an individual to believe and practice as you will, to whatever brings joy to your life.\n\nIf everyone could bring an ounce of compassion to thier lives, and perhaps act like civilized human beings (and not a torch wielding mob) the world would be a much safer and happier place.\n\nGood luck in your search :)


She was attracted to and will persue a relationship with someone she has found to be just like you? I'm kinda creeped out..We're both lesbians but I would never want a relationship with someone just like her...

I'd take it as a compliment.  It's only creepy if she goes after you.  I'm sure she didn't consciously pick this woman because of her similarity to you.  The fact that she is interested in someone like you should just show you how much she thinks of you.  My best friend married someone who's personality is just like mine and they've been together for 13 years. The only difference between your situation and mine is that my friend's husband is different from me in one way, and that's gender.Don't look too much into it...just be happy for her and hope things work out!

why is the muslim religion is considered bad? why islam has strong and harsh rules for ladies?why there is no equality?

And women shall have rights similar to the rights against them, according to what is equitable; but man have a degree (of advantage as in some cases of inheritance) over them \n\n(Qur’an 2:228)\n\nMuslim religion is not considered bad, its only media reports that spreads such wrong impressions. Its totally false based on the reports of people embrassing Islam. The latest of them is women media reported from UK, captured by Talibaan just before US attacked AFGHANISTAN, spent few weeks in their custody, released and willingly accepted Islam Yuvon Yardly. If muslims are bad and Islam is bad, why she left her Christianity and accepted Islam ?\nsecond and third questions are on women in Islam - the following article gives you the position of women Islam.\nThe Status of Woman in Islam\n\nBy Hammuda Abdul-Ati, PH.D. from "Islam in focus"\n\nThe status of woman in Islam constitutes no problem. The attitude of the Qur'an and the early Muslims bear witness to the fact that woman is, at least, as vital to life as man himself, and that she is not inferior to him nor is she one of the lower species. Had it not been for the impact of foreign cultures and alien influences, this question would have never arisen among the Muslims. The status of woman was taken for granted to be equal to that of man. It was a matter of course, a matter of fact, and no one, then, considered it as a problem at all.\n\nIn order to understand what Islam has established for woman, there is no need to deplore her plight in the pre-Islamic era or in the modern would of today. Islam has given woman rights and privileges, which she has never enjoyed under other religious or constitutional systems. This can be understood when the matter is studied as a whole in a comparative manner, rather than partially. The rights and responsibilities of a woman are equal to those of a man but they are not necessarily identical with them. Equality and sameness are two quite different things. This difference is understandable because man and woman are not identical but they are created equals. With this distinction in mind, There is no problem. It is almost impossible to find even two identical men or women.\n\nThis distinction between equality and sameness is of paramount importance. Equality is desirable, just, fair; but sameness is not. People are not created identical but they are created equals. With this distinction in mind, there is no room to imagine that woman is inferior to man. There is no ground to assume that she is less important than he just because her rights are not identically the same as his. Had her status been identical with his, she would have been simply a duplicate of him, which she is not. The fact that Islam gives her equal rights - but not identical - shows that it takes her into due consideration, acknowledges her, and recognizes her independent personality.\n\nIt is not the tone of Islam that brands woman as the product of the devil or the seed of evil. Nor does the Qur'an place man as the dominant lord of woman who has no choice but to surrender to his dominance. Nor was it Islam that introduced the question of whether or not woman has any soul in her. Never in the history of Islam has any Muslim doubted the human status of woman or her possession of soul and other fine spiritual qualities. Unlike other popular beliefs, Islam does not blame Eve alone for the First Sin. The Qur'an makes it very clear that both Adam and Eve were tempted; that they both sinned; that God's pardon was granted to both after their repentance; and that God addressed them jointly. (2:35-36); 7:19, 27; 20:117-123). In fact the Qur'an gives the impression that Adam was more to blame for that First Sin from which emerged prejudice against woman and suspicion of her deeds. But Islam does not justify such prejudice or suspicion because both Adam and Eve were equally in error, and if we are to blame Eve we should blame Adam as much or even more. \n\nThe sta


Does it make much of a difference if the education is basicly the same? I think private school teaches kids to be stuck up, and to think that they're better than anyone else.

No. Private schools often offer more opportunities, but not necessarily better people. For example, the top schools are more likely to accept someone from a private school than a public school, but that doesn't mean they are actually better students.\n\nAlso you have to consider the backgrounds of the people. A very small minority of kids in private school come from broken homes/poverty, while larger numbers go to public schools. Some things like this are difficult to overcome in any educational setting.\n\nI feel that, in the end, the important thing is to study hard and get support both at school and at home for the child's individual needs and skills.


i want to give up my virganity i am a guy 35 yrs any answers

u must b so frustrated im surprised uve waited this long do something before u burst.


My Middle class teacher really doesnt get along with me. i try to be pleasant to her but she just gets seriously irritated with me. i asked her how to do a math problem, she told me to get my lazy butt up and look it up! I told her that i did but i didnt understand it. she sent me to the office for disrupting the class. Any Teachers you have treat you like that?

Yes.\nThe problem is that we are all scared as children, and now that I am an adult I see how wrong and rude some teachers were/are.\nTell your Principal exactly how rude she is and what she said. Tell her that this is a valid complaint and if she doesn't rectify this kind of behavior that you have no choice but to speak to the Principal's Superintendent!\n\nDon't be afraid, nothing can happen to you. But do not attempt this if you are a trouble maker and have a documented history of your behavior as it will backfire on you.

Please! lol There are so many I wnat to study! How do you know whats right for you?

I suggest picking the major that would be very hard for you to pursue on your own.  Like, I'm interested in Women's Studies, but I didn't major in it because I'm learning way more on my own reading independently and talking to others.  Things that may be hard to learn on your own include any science requiring experiments with chemicals :)\n\nAlso, you may want to choose a major that your college is very good at teaching.  That way you will get the most bang for your buck.  If you love statistics, but the school only has one super boring statistics teacher, don't even bother.  If you kind of like history, but your school has the most bomb history teachers, you may really want to study that, and study your other interests on the side.\n\nYou may also want to consider the quality of life you want in school.  I considered majoring in Physics, but to graduate in 3 years and study abroad, it would have been impossible, unless I wanted to literally spend the next three years in a lab.  So I chose a major that allowed me to graduate early and study abroad, which was important to me.  \n\nAnother suggestion is to choose a major that will allow you to study many different things.  I majored in anthropology, specializing in archaeology, which allowed me to take history, science, and culture courses and they were all related to my major.  In fact, I could take courses that counted toward my degree and my gen ed requirements, and that meant I had a lot of space in my schedule to take electives.  I hear that some schools offer Artificial Intelligence degrees, which allows psychology and computer science and all sorts of fun things like that.\n\nAnother suggestion, if you don't have a major like that, is to create your own major.  Like if you don't have an Artificial Intelligence major, you can create one.


Okay, so here's the story.\nThis girl that lives up the street from me...I have known her since I was in 1st grade...I am now a freshman, and she is in my homeroom class....however, before the 2005-2006 school year started...I had not talked to her since 1st grade. I have developed a HUGE crush on her, and I htink she might like me...But I dont know...I guess she can't say no to a guy, But I dont want to go out with her just to get dumped...How do I find out? What do I do?

Alright, first mistake, you haven't talked to her SINCE 1ST GRADE! Wow, you're a champ. Second mistake, you haven't asked her out. Take her on a freakin date. What's wrong with you? You like her, take her out, find out if she likes you. Even a little bit is fine, that opens the door. You'll grow on her if you're not a complete assbag. I recommend Chuckie Cheese's. It's a place where she can watch little kids, and it's okay for you to be pretty stupid, or normal, whichever fits you best. So go throw her in a shallow ball pit and make 'er land on top of a 4 year old little girl, and you'd probably have the best date of both your young lives. That's a story to be told to your f'in grandkids. Wow, I wish that happened to me. Well, you could always just club her over the head with a stick and drag back to your house and keep her hostage, like in caveman days. But some crap about society and laws and stuff. I dunno. It worked for me. Once. This cell IS pretty small though. Alright, take care. Love some cheese. Out

i was on a walk when i noticed that there were pigeons...some of then were albino and some grey. however what intrigued me was there were pigeons who were half grey and half white.Now how does this happen, either a creature can be completely albino or not at all.Is partial albinism possible? can albinism be passed from generation to generation.Can anybody explain?

You should not confuse and animal that is albino with and animal that is merely white. For instance you can get white tigers that are not albino and you can tell because they have blue eyes (which indicates that they do it fact produce melanin - an albino can't). \n\nPigmentation is usually determined by multiple genes. It isn't just matter of IF the pigment is produced but WHERE it is distributed, WHEN it is produced (genes can turn on and off) and in what QUANTITY. So even if it has a working pigment gene it doesn't mean it will be expressed everywhere in the same way or at all. \n\nThere are all sorts of things that can contribute to the pattern of an animal. For instance Tortoise shell patterned cat are all female. Their pattern is due to the fact that the pigment genes are on the X chromosomes (of which famle cats have two). In females one of the two chromosome partially deactivates to stop them over producing certain proteins. This deactivation happens at random. Thus if the X chromosomes have different pigment alleles (gene variants) the cat will get patchs of different colours over its body. I don't know exactly how it works in pidgeons, but the point is it isn't down to one gene or even JUST genes but to other factors as well.

I think it's natural we are attracted by people who are different from ourselves. \nYou're not a hypocrite!!! Not at all. Many of us find other races attractive but only some of us are ready to talk about it directly. Those who hide the truth are hypocrites. The problem is that former generations rarely allowed the couples to mix. I think it was the matter of identity and fear of being judged by other people.  \nFortunately, world has changed now and people have changed as well. We are used to a view of 'mixed pairs' and I love the view! I dream I will also be in such relationship someday...


is there an std that causes you to urinate alot?

Gonorrhea and chlamydia can make you feel that way, but its more likely to be a UTI.  You should get it checked by a doc soon.  Left untreated, all of those can cause serious problems.


it has to be the size of a backpack. and it also has to clean up easily.

Baking soda, vinegar, orange food coloring... Volcano!\n\nDon't do the whole volcano, just do half of one. Basically, you do a cross section of it. Put a tube down the middle of it. The front part of your project will basically look like a volcano, but the part in the back will be a cross section that shows the different levels of rock inside a volcano, and how pressure builds up inside.\n\nResearch what happens during an eruption, and famous places that volcanos have erupted.


I'm in the process of trying to get my baby baptised.  I've been playing phone tag w the priest on trying to schedule the class that is prior to the Baptism.  I needed to know if I'm suppose to give the priest/church some sort of donation or money for the Baptism.

All of God's services are free. You can be baptized in your bathtub at home, if you wish. It does not have to be performed by a priest. It should be done at the will of each individual, not to children who have no idea what it means. Baptism is like a symbol to those around you that you have accepted Salvation. It should come after Salvation. \n\nBaptism is done in personal obedience to God. It has no saving power (just so you understand).

I am sure that at the time in the 1920's he was the youngest schoolboy to be capped for Yorkshire.  Most of the players at that time were 14/15 and I know he was a lot younger than that.  How can I find out if he is still the youngest.

you could try contacting the yorkshire post. if someone younger has played, they would have included it in an article on the match in question, seeing as it's something of an achievement :O) otherwise you could try contacting the british amateur rugby league association. they might be able to find out for you

I need the answer for a Spanish paper I am writing. Thanks ^^

i guess you don't know your MEXICAN HISTORY!\n\n\n\n\nThe 5th of May is not Mexican Independence Day, but it should be!Mexico declared its independence from mother Spain on midnight, the 15th of September, 1810.  And it took 11 years before the first Spanish soldiers were told and forced to leave Mexico. \n\nSo, why Cinco de Mayo?  And why should Americans savor this day as well?  Because 4,000 Mexican soldiers smashed the French and traitor Mexican army of 8,000 at Puebla, Mexico, 100 miles east of Mexico City on the morning of May 5, 1862. \n\nThe French had landed in Mexico (along with Spanish and English troops) five months earlier on the pretext of collecting Mexican debts from the newly elected government of democratic President (and Indian) Benito Juarez.  The English and Spanish quickly made deals and left.  The French, however, had different ideas. \n\nUnder Emperor Napoleon III, who detested the United States, the French came to stay.  They brought a Hapsburg prince with them to rule the new Mexican empire.  His name was Maximilian; his wife, Carolota.  Napoleon's French Army had not been defeated in 50 years, and it invaded Mexico with the finest modern equipment and with a newly reconstituted Foreign Legion.  The French were not afraid of anyone, especially since the United States was embroiled in its own Civil War. \n\nThe French Army left the port of Vera Cruz to attack Mexico City to the west, as the French assumed that the Mexicans would give up should their capital fall to the enemy -- as European countries traditionally did. \n\nUnder the command of Texas-born General Zaragosa, (and the cavalry under the command of Colonel Porfirio Diaz, later to be Mexico's president and dictator), the Mexicans awaited.  Brightly dressed French Dragoons led the enemy columns.  The Mexican Army was less stylish. \n\nGeneral Zaragosa ordered Colonel Diaz to take his cavalry, the best in the world, out to the French flanks.  In response, the French did a most stupid thing; they sent their cavalry off to chase Diaz and his men, who proceeded to butcher them.  The remaining French infantrymen charged the Mexican defenders through sloppy mud from a thunderstorm and through hundreds of head of stampeding cattle stirred up by Indians armed only with machetes. \n\nWhen the battle was over, many French were killed or wounded and their cavalry was being chased by Diaz' superb horsemen miles away.  The Mexicans had won a great victory that kept Napoleon III from supplying the confederate rebels for another year, allowing the United States to build the greatest army the world had ever seen.  This grand army smashed the Confederates at Gettysburg just 14 months after the battle of Puebla, essentially ending the Civil War. \n\nUnion forces were then rushed to the Texas/Mexican border under General Phil Sheridan, who made sure that the Mexicans got all the weapons and ammunition they needed to expel the French.  American soldiers were discharged with their uniforms and rifles if they promised to join the Mexican Army to fight the French.  The American Legion of Honor marched in the Victory Parade in Mexico, City. \n\nIt might be a historical stretch to credit the survival of the United States to those brave 4,000 Mexicans who faced an army twice as large in 1862.  But who knows? \n\nIn gratitude, thousands of Mexicans crossed the border after Pearl Harbor to join the U.S. Armed Forces.  As recently as the Persian Gulf War, Mexicans flooded American consulates with phone calls, trying to join up and fight another war for America. \n\nMexicans, you see, never forget who their friends are, and neither do Americans.  That's why Cinco de Mayo is such a party -- A party that celebrates freedom and liberty.  There are two ideals which Mexicans and Americans have fought shoulder to shoulder to protect, ever since the 5th of May, 1862.  VIVA! el CINCO DE MAYO!!


Yes, my ex boss was mean to me all the time. She used to yell at me and tell me that I needed to grow up. I used to get the blame for stuff that I knew that I had not done. And when I would try to defend myself she would say, "Well maybe you just spaced out from all the medication you are on!" And I am not on any medications.\n\nThere was also a time that money turned up missing that I honestly believe that never existed. My boss mentioned it in front of customers. And then in the end she fired me over it. I did not take it but in the end I had to pay that money back.\n\nMy best friend who still works there says that someone who once worked with the boss says that that they have done that to people before. And that the money was probably never there at all.\n\nOther people say that they probably did it for unemployment. Either way I had money taken out of my paycheck without my permission and I did not take that money in the first place!!! No police were involved in this or anything.\n\nI never did anything about it. I didn't know what I could do or that I even could do anything.


Just curious. Im not one of those weight obsessive persons. I just thought it was be interesting to know. So be honest especially since i already love who i am and the person i see in the mirror.

Most medical charts say 120-160 lb is the "healthy" range.  But other factors need to be considered such as body type (pear, apple, etc), muscle mass, bone structure (small, medium, large) etc.  You hit the nail on the head-- being happy with yourself is as important as what a chart says you "should" be.


She is 17 going to be 18 in July. She is very very hard-headed and the more my husband and I (and the other parents) are against it the more determined she'll be. I need a way to convince her without out and out saying no, don't do this its a bad idea.

At this point in time you have done all you can, or at least all you've had time to do.  You can try, but don't alienate her.  When/if it goes wrong she will need you. You may be disappointed but you're a good mom and that's your job.  Teach her what you can, some people are hard learners. But *if* it goes wrong, she *will* need you.  So don't put her in the position of not wanting to come to you when she needs help because she doesn't want an "I told you so."


Examples for microbes, where they live?,what they eat, and how we can experiment on them?

Microbiology \n \nAmericans are fascinated by world records. The Guiness Book of World Records is a very popular text because we are interested in the biggest and the best of everything. \n\nIn the late '80s a Dr. Fishelson found a very unusual bacterium called Epulopiscium fishelsoni. This bacterium lives in the gut of a Red Sea surgeonfish. This bacterium can grow up to 600 micrometers long and 80 micrometers wide. The average Epulopiscium fishelsoni is 250 micrometers long and 40 micrometers wide. Six hundred micrometers is a little over a half a millimeter. A millimeter is about as long as the period in the box below. \n\n1millimeter=. \n\nThe human eye can see things as small as 200 micrometers, making this bacteria the first one to actually be visible to the naked eye. To give you a better idea of how big this bacterium really is, "normal-sized" bacteria are only about 0.2 micrometers to about 1.5 micrometers in length or diameter. \nIn the microbial world a record has finally been broken for the biggest bacteria in the world. The record holder for the biggest bacteria recorded on the earth is now (drum roll please): Thiomargarita namibiensis. This behemoth of bacteria is round rather than rectangle like Epulopiscium fishelsoni. It averages about 180 micrometers in diameter. The largest cells have been measured at 750 micrometers. On a cell volume basis the largest Epulopiscium fishelsoni is .003 millimeters cubed. However, Thiomargarita namibiensis' largest cells have an enormous volume of 0.22 millimeters cubed. \n\nNot only is Thiomargarita namibiensis a giant but it is also very unusual. It utilizes sulfates and nitrates to get its energy. This bacteria found off the coast of Namibia is in the sediment at the bottom of the ocean. Basically, Thiomargarita namibiensis gets necessary electrons from sulfates. It then uses nitrates to grab onto the electron instead of oxygen. Those electrons are eventually used to generate energy for the cell. It gets its enormous size because it stores huge amounts of nitrates to hold onto these electrons. It needs to store the nitrates because nitrate levels are very low in these waters most of the time. It isn't until a major storm stirs up the mud at the bottom of the ocean that Thiomargarita namibiensis can get the nitrates it needs. \n\nWhen nitrates are around, these bacteria literally stuff themselves with nitrate. In essence they are a huge ball of nitrates with a very thin layer of cytoplasm (cytoplasm contains all the necessary stuff for bacteria to live, grow, and reproduce) around this nitrate. \n\nThis bacteria may prove useful in other areas of the world's oceans. \n In waters contaminated with nitrates from fertilizers and sewage these organisms may be useful in taking up these nitrates. If too much nitrate is in the water, algae in the water will grow out of control and kill or chase away other inhabitants in the area. Thiomargarita namibiensis could be placed in these nitrate rich waters to remove them and prevent the algae from growing out of control. There needs to be a lot more work done on this unique bacterium. Researchers have yet to get it to grow in a test tube. However, in time this giant among bacteria may be tamed and utilized to help in other areas of the world. \n \nFor more information go to the Science(April 16, 1999, vol. 284, No.5413, pages 415 and 493-495) article. You can't get all the information from the online version unless you are a subscriber. On the other hand, the cover of that issue has a picture of this mighty bacteria. \n\nTake Care and Think Microbiologically!


I wonder if a peaceful solution could be reached by photoelectric cells to be donated to Iran by their producers on a widescale basis. I am looking for electricity consumption rates. If Iran were furnished with photoelectric cells they would not need nuclear power for electricity.

You are overlooking one vital fact.  Iran has the 2nd largest oil reserves in the World, and the majority of electricity within the World, including within Iran is still generated using oil based or carbon based power stations.\n\nIran needs nuclear power like the a fish needs a bicycle.\n\nThe basic reason why Iran wants a nuclear power station is to enrich uranium in order to make nuclear weapons.\n\nRussia has already offered to sell Iran cheap low-grade uranium, which is what is used in nuclear power stations. Iran has refused. Why ? Because low-grade is what is used in power stations, but can't be used for nuclear bombs. You need high-grade uranium which is a by-product of nuclear power generation. That's why Iran wants a power station. To make nuclear weapons, otherwise if it really wanted just to generate nuclear power it could have accepted Russia's offer of cheap low-grade uranium.

Does there exist any relationship between colonized nation's economic growth partern and the Administrative style of the colonia masters? Becuase 90% of nations colonised by Britain particularly in Africa are yet to find their foot after so many years of independence. Is this poor administration or another form of slave trading of nations or both?

they are always coming into the baseball question fourms and saying the obvious to a baseball hater " baseball is so boring go play basketball" go please stick the basketballs up your azzes and leave us fans alone

Its because these people are from the, "We want to be entertained now!" mindset, and do not have the intelligence to appreciate the uniquness baseball offers, that the other big three sports do not in three categories.  \n\nThe first is that baseball is the only one of the four sports that does not have a clock.  You play the game until it is over, and they cannot play those stall games to run out the clock.\n\nSecondly, baseball is the only sport of the big four where it is the defense and not the offense that puts the ball (puck) into play.  The offense has to react to the defense, and not vice-versa.\n\nThirdly, baseball is the only true team sport.  By that I mean everyone in the lineup has to wait for their turn to do something offensively, and, with this being the case, it is truly more of a team game.  In basketball, if Shaq or Colby are hot, they set up the plays to get them the ball, in hockey, they try to get the puck to their top scorer, and in football, the offense is usually geared around the big playmaker.  But, in baseball, everyone plays a key role on offense, since everyone will eventually have their turn at the plate.  \n\nPeople who hate baseball are spoiled, "I want it now" instant gratificationists, who cannot appreciate the uniqueness, as well as the pureness of the game. Outside of the American League adopting the Designated Hitter in 1973, baseball has kept its rules in tact.  \n\nAnother thing about baseball that does make it unique is that, outside of the other three sports that have "cookie cutter" fields, each baseball park has its own outfield dimensions, and other little uniqunesses, that make the game all the more special. \n\nI agree with you 100% about the attitude of those who hate baseball!  I do not think that they can put those basketballs where you suggested, becuase there is no room for them there, since their heads have already taken up occupancy.


Well I have a teacher and his name is Mr. Baldwin. But at the begienning of this year at P.E. we were running the 40 yard dash. Well Mr.B was gettin into it so scince I was the fastest kid my our 5th grade class I got to race him. Stupidly he didn't streach so when he ran he pulled his upper left hemmie (Hemstirng) and then he said that he was going to get sweet revenge on me. While still remebering his revenge he saw that there was a opening at the 7th grade math position as aa teacher so he took it (math is my worst subject). Well if you have any sites on teacher jokes then please give me them (who ever has best site gets best points).\n~Payton~

Here's a quick one-liner to get things started...\n\n"Well, we're so proud of Mr. Baldwin for finally passing to a higher grade after years of hard work...."\n\nTry browsing through these to get ideas:\n\nhttp://yahooligans.yahoo.com/content/jokes/category?c=38\nhttp://www.teach.net/teachingjokes.htm\nhttp://www.butlerwebs.com/jokes/teachers.htm

YOUR ANIMATION IS GOOD WELL DONE ON THE IMAGINATION SOME HAVE TO BE TRANSLATED TO ENGLISH BUT FROM WHAT I SAW NOT TOO SHABBY


If someone is convicted over larceny over $250 in Massachusetts, does the Canadian Embassy consider that a felony as well and border crossing will be denied?

Most U.S. citizens enter Canada without doing more than briefly showing their driver's license.  You MAY be stopped and asked if you have a criminal record and the Canadian authorities could deny you entry if they find out about your record.  If you went over the border at a busy crossing like Niagara Falls or Detroit/Windsor, I'd be surprised if you were stopped.  Here's the official line from the U.S. Dept. of State:\n\n"All persons entering Canada may be required to present proof of citizenship and identity.  U.S. citizens are encouraged to show a U.S. passport.  If they do not have a passport, they should be prepared to provide a government-issued photo ID (e.g. Driver’s License) and proof of U.S. citizenship such as a birth certificate, naturalization certificate, or expired U.S. passport.  A visa is not required for U.S. citizens to visit Canada of up to 180 days.  Anyone seeking to enter Canada for any purpose besides a visit, (e.g. to work, study or immigrate) should contact the Canadian Embassy or nearest consulate prior to travel.  Anyone with a criminal record (including some misdemeanors such as Driving While Impaired (DWI) charges) may be excluded or removed from Canada, and should contact the Canadian Embassy or nearest Canadian consulate well in advance of any planned travel for further processing, which may take some time."


Idk If This Guy Likes Me We Have Been Friends For A While So How Can I Tell???

By how he acts around you especially if he can't take his eyes off you and he tries to get real close to you all the time you really have to trust you gut and here comes the hard part you have to find some way to ask him if you too shy the best way to do so is get really close and see ow reacts to your touch or presence.


in a relationship..should the guy or the girl make the first move for something....i mean.i personally think the guy..but i wanna know what other people think about it...

I'm soo old fashion when it comes to relationships. I def. think the guy should make the first move....I dont' feel as though I should be making most of the phone calls or asking him out! If a man is interested in me he would show it. \n(And yall MEN know this:)


I have already formed a solid opinion of this album (I think it is one of the best so far this year)....Just curious to see everyone else's opinion.

It proves that they are amazing musicians. Definelly one of the best albuns out this year.\n\nTheir opinion shouldn't matter in their career. What happened to them really scares me, cuz isn't America the Land of the Free?\n\nAnd also they were right. And so was Sinead O'Connor


I never show any of it, but it's how I ALWAYS feel. \nI'm a 17 year old boy, and if my life had to be represented by a single word, it would be "STRESS".\n\nI act like I am the happiest person on the face of this Earth, but trust me, I'm not. I act cheery, goofy and carefree. Inside, I'm a wreck.\n\nI feel bad whenever I have any fun, or get a gift... or if anything good happens to me. I get this awful, burning feeling and a voice says "You don't deserve this, don't be happy." I always feel as though that I am letting all my loved ones down and I can't deal with it anymore.\n\nIf I had the chance to meet myself in a dark alley, I think I would beat myself up and yell "What the hell's the matter with you? You're such a freakin' loser!" \n\nI act as though I have no self-esteem issues, and as though peer pressure is below me. I brush off bad grades in school and act as though it doesn't faze me. In reality, it's killing me inside.\n\nDo I have depression or something? I can't stand this.

Hello there! I am sorry to hear you are feeling so down. People are so quick to say someone has depression. You say that you act like you are the happiest person on earth, but you aren't happy on the inside. You just have to believe that you do deserve happiness! I believe that you just have low self-esteem and self worth. 17 is a hard age! Believe me...looking back I felt the same way and wondered what the heck was wrong with myself. Just the pressures nowadays that are being put on young people is enough to make someone want to give up! I know to be happy is easier said than done sometimes, and it is a lot of work sometimes. Once you start believing in yourself it will get more simple. Life is too short not to have fun--experience life. I am not saying go out there and do foolish things, but enjoy the silly stuff. I am an adult and I still like to go to toy stores and play with the puppets! Because it makes me happy. I am not here to make anyone happy but myself. It sounds selfish, but before we can help others, we have to help ourselves. Just the fact that you asked the question on here shows that you are ready and willing to make a change for yourself. I have done a lot of "stupid" things in my life, but I have learned that loved ones are there for you no matter what you do. If people really love you, they are there for you no matter what! You can make little changes in your life. Use positive affirmation..when you start to feel those thoughts of hopelessness creep in--say to yourself that you are not listening anymore. If you are still feeling beyond hopelessness, there are many people you can go to to talk about it. It is not a sign of weakness to ask for some help and guidance. It is you standing up and saying you are sick of being that way and taking control of your life. I wish you luck and hope that I helped a little! Take care!


The employer also confirmed this is the reason and has nothing to do with my performance. I've been hired here now for the past 2 months

Yes he can. An at-will employee can be fired for any reason or no reason at all.[1]\nThe only exception are discrimination laws. So If you co-worker did not like you because you are black you can sue.\nBut if the co-worker did not like because you had bad work ethics, or were obnoxious, or even if he did not like the way you look  it is fine to fire you.


So my neck and back hurt, throat really hurts, the glands under my jaw hurt very bad, my ears hurt and I have a tempeture of 102F. I went to the docs today and i thought i had strep throat but it came back negitive. He also said that i didn't have an ear infection. Then he left and i was too shy to ask him what to do.

Sounds as if you have a bad case of flu or some other virus. Drink lots of liquids, hot honey and lemon is good, take aspirin and get plenty of sleep. If you're not better within 48 hours go back to the doctor, or if you get eyes that hurt in the light/headache or a rash go back to the doctor immediately. Cool yourself down with a cold damp flannel over your forehead. I think you'll be fine in a few days.

Morgellon's Disease: Mysterious Ecto-Parasites \n\nTranscript of a Four Part Series on CBS 47 Jacksonville News\nOriginal article and video interview may be found HERE\n\nA mysterious skin disease is currently spreading across America, and doctors are searching for answers on how to stop the epidemic.\n\nThe disease, called Morgellons Disease, is a parasite-like infection that literally makes the infected person's skin crawl.  The disease has already been found in thousands of patients in Florida , Texas and California. \n\n“I would lay in the bed and it felt like an army of ants just crawling over the bed, all over my body,” says one Morgellons Disease sufferer.\n\n“It never goes away,” says another. “It doesn't die, it doesn't leave.”\n\nWhat sounds like a science fiction movie is actually real life for the unlucky people who have contracted the disease which leaves painful sores all over the body. The sores ooze blue fibers, white threads and little black specks of sand-like material. \n\nThe worst part, patients say, is the creepy and constant sensation of bugs crawling under their skin.\n\nAlso discouraging, is the patient's treatment by doctors, who have little knowledge about the disease, and in specific cases have lacked compassion for the sufferers. \n\n“I was so humiliated from the three doctors that I went to, that I just refused to go back,” said on patient. \n\nBecky Bailey moved out of her Austin, Texas home and into a trailer hoping to escape the bugs that torment her. \n\n"We ripped out our carpet and burned our carpet and furniture and move out into our R-V and they were still one me." \n\nWithout medical help, suffering families researched their symptoms on their own by way of the internet. Finally, they were able to put a name to their pain – Morgellons. \n\nThe sickly skin disease has actually been around for centuries. In 1935, an English physician wrote a paper about Morgellons including excerpts from medical journals from the 1600's, describing the disease. \n\nUnfortunately, not much was known then about Morgellons -- and not much has been learned in the more than 400 years since. \n\nWhat is known, is that many of people who may have it, suffer from these symptoms: constant itching/crawling sensation, chronic fatigue, brain fog or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, bipolar disorder, depression, joint swelling or hair loss \n\nWhat you should do if you have these symptoms, is as puzzling as the disease itself. \n\nOne woman in Pittsburgh, PA made it her mission to find out what causes and what will cure this bizarre disease. \n\nMary Leitao is a biologist and the creator the Morgellons Research Foundation in Pittsburgh.\n\nHer goal is to get State Health Agencies and the Center for Disease Control (CDC) to study this disease. \n\n“It's inhumane that these people have been allowed to go home and have been forced to research this day in and day out for years on their own,” says Leitao. \n\nLeitao's motivations come from her 6 year old boy Drew. Four years ago, he began to feel the itch. \n\n"He started describing bugs. He said, mommy, bugs, and he would scratch." \n\nThen came the sores that shed the fibers. Mary took drew to the doctor and the doctor said it was nothing to worry about. \n\n"I was going to find an answer, or I was going to have to take my life, that's all there was too it." \n\nDoctors don't know what causes the disease, who is at risk and exactly how many people may be suffering. The Morgellon Foundation says they have about 12 hundred people registered on their site. Those are only people who have a computer and happened to find them online. \n\nIn Jacksonville , more than a dozen cases have been found.\n\n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\nFor Anne Dill, standing in her backyard, looking over the lake is physically and emotionally painful

IS SEX SO OVER RATED THAT NOW IT HAS BECOME THE NORM IN SOCIETY? AND WHO IS MORE LIKELY TO CHEAT A MAN OR A WOMEN? KEEP IN MINE THAT THERE ARE MORE WOMEN THEN MEN.

Sex is definitely overrated unless it is with someone you really care about. Loving the person you are with is what makes it extraordinary. If you feel something lacking in your sex life, if you are with someone you love you would most likely be able to work through it & develope the kind of sexual relationship you want with that person. \n\nBut that is the difference between haveing "sex" & "making love".\n\nIf you have not already, please voice your opinion regarding my similar question: constant [faithful] love, or great sex?


with minimal wages, living alone or in a houseshare and still paying sky high rent? What's left after paying the bills, health insurance etc. Are we meant to work 7 days a week to earn enough? Or get a personal loan from the  bank?\nHave you developed any effective ways to save money?

The ONLY time you should EVER get a loan is if it will pay for something that will earn back more than the interest you pay.  That includes education.\n\nMinimal wages are for people who are of minimal value to a company.  When you can determine which type of company where you can provide the most long-term value, you probably have found the way out of your financial problems.  This might include a formal education, and it might not.\n\nIn the short term, yes sometimes we should work 7 days a week.  There's no better way to gain valuable experience than to be completely immersed in a job for a few months.  Just make sure it's in the industry where you would like to stay for many years, or most of that experience will be pointless.\n\nJust about everyone starts out with nothing.  There is a LOT of wealth trading hands, so there is no reason to stay with nothing.  The people with money don't want it.  They want to get rid of it, to trade it for something that's truly valuable to them.  That's where you come in and provide it. :)\n\nThe way I save money is to keep it split up into small amounts and never add it all up.  It's too easy to splurge if I know just how much I have.  Get several envelopes and put a few dollars in each one now and then.  Keep them hidden and separate from each other.  Just forget they exist except when you're putting money in.  Next thing you know, you find that you have an envelope full of money and you're not even sure what you want to buy!


In college gymnastics, what are the differences between: Women's NCAA Division I, Women's Club, \nWomen's Scholarship, Women's Intramural, and Women's Intercollegiate ? Help this is confusing me!

Well, generally speaking, here are some definitions:\n\nDivision 1 is is the "highest" level of competition in college sports.  Its competition level is national, and the best college athletes will be found on this level.\n\nWomen's Club is usually a smaller group, who will compete against other club teams, usually from the local (sometimes regional) area.\n\nWomen's Intramural is competition within the college itself.  So the winner of this competition would be the best gymnast at that college.\n\nWomen's Intercollegiate is competition with other colleges, but not at the same level as Division 1.\n\nFollow the link below (www.ncaa.org) for all the information on college athletics:


that was cool than the face thing\n\ni wonder how people make these things\n\nthanx for showing us


probably my favorite band....next to thrice and afi...THEY ROCK!!

YEAH! I love avenged sevenfold. I also love thrice, circa survive, children of bodom, cradle of filth, mars volta! I really have too many to list..


I need to write an "IF" statement for the following..........write an if statement for cell h3 that assigns the value of cell a7 to cell h3 if the value of j7 is less than the value in cell q2, otherwise, have the if function assign zero to cell h3

this is tough... you should just try your best to get a possible anwser and if you still can't get it, ask your teacher that you cannot manage to answer the question either today or tomorow or when your next class comes... if its your holidays, then make plans to contact your teacher and ask him the question...\n\nif there is no possible contact that wait for school to re-open and ask him the question immeidately in the morning... teacher's won't be angry if you can't anwser some questions... they will be angry if you don't try.


For example, taking evening primrose oil,collagen,vitamin E, etc.

While vitamins and herbal supplement can be beneficial to your diet, at this time they're not regulated in any fashion. Some supplements actually react with other, just like medications can interact. You may wish to speak with your physician or someone knowledgable in herbology before mixing supplements and/or medications you're not familiar with.


do you know any good websites that have a detailed biography on Seto Asaka

Here are some:\nhttp://idol-planets.kitone.com/seto_asaka/\nhttp://www.entertainguide.com/actresses/s/asaka-seto.html\n\nHope this helps!


Well recently I did some unique triangle stuff and I didn't understand it. My teacher said theres stuff like AAA, SAS, etc. And that a triangle can be unique. But what I don't understand is, if you have a triangle with say 2 angles and like 3. Couldn't you just double the 3 to a 6 and keep the same angles?

The first thing is to understand the difference between similar and congruent (identical).  Two triangles are similar if their shapes are similar, but their sizes may be different.  An equilateral triangle is similar to another equilateral triangle, but one could have sides of length 1 and the other sides of length 2.  These are *similar*.  But for them to be congruent both their angles and their sides would all have to be the same.\n\nLike you said, if two triangles had 2 angles the same (and therefore the 3rd angle must be known to be the same since they all add up to 180), then you've only proven them *similar*.  A side could be 3 units long, but if you doubled them all, you would still have a *similar* triangle, but it wouldn't be *congruent*.\n\nA concept commonly taught in high school mathematics is that of proving the "angle" and "side" theorems, which can be used to define two triangles as similar or congruent.\n\nIn each of these three-letter acronyms, A stands for equal angles, and S for equal sides. For example, ASA refers to an angle, side and angle that are all equal and adjacent, in that order.\n\nAAA - Angle-Angle-Angle. If two triangles share three common angles, they are *similar*. (Obviously, this means that the side lengths are locked in a common ratio, but can vary proportionally, making the triangles similar.) Additionally, since the interior angles of a triangle have a sum of 180°, having two triangles with only two common angles (sometimes known as AA) implies similarity as well. \n\nTwo triangles are *congruent* if their corresponding sides and angles are equal. Usually it is sufficient to establish the equality of three corresponding parts and use one of the following results to conclude the congruence of the two triangles:\n\nSAS (Side-Angle-Side): Two triangles are *congruent* if a pair of corresponding sides and the included angle are equal.\n\nSSS (Side-Side-Side): Two triangles are *congruent* if their corresponding sides are equal.\n\nASA (Angle-Side-Angle): Two triangles are *congruent* if a pair of corresponding angles and the included side are equal.\n\nWhile the AAS (Angle-Angle-Side) condition also guarantees *congruence*, SSA (Side-Side-Angle) does not, as there are often two dissimilar triangles with a pair of corresponding sides and a non-included angle equal. This is known as the ambiguous case. Of course, AAA (Angle-Angle-Angle) says nothing about the size of the two triangles and hence shows only *similarity* and not congruence.\n\nHowever, a special case of the SSA condition is the HL (Hypotenuse-Leg) condition. This is true because all right triangles (which this condition is used with) have a congruent angle (the right angle). If the hypotenuse and a certain leg of a triangle are congruent to the corresponding hypotenuse and leg of a different triangle, the two triangles are congruent.


I'm starting grad school at UT, i want a nice place, I'm a musician so areas that are usually student friendly would be great... you get the idea. preferably a house, but i would settle for an apartment if I had to.

Avenues A through F, and bring a bike. On these avenues, there are lots of small houses, and students (both undergrad and grad) get together in groups of three or four and rent them. There are bike lanes from these avenues that go right to campus, and to Guadalupe Street (The Drag), where all the diners and bookstores and boutiques are.\n\nYou could also look further away from campus, but make sure you'd be on a Metro route so you can get back and forth to campus easily. It's a good bus system


I want it to be some where special but not to special, not to exspensive but not to free! i t has to be some hwere you can go to  have fun, and just have a good time.

I need some where to go where it would be romantic but fun and it has to be some where where you can laugh or cry not some where you have to be silent!

(i have to do a report on him. if you have any personal experiences with him plzzz tell)

It is unlikely many people will know him now since he died in 1921, the website below might be a starting point. There are also several books about him.


For a Denny's that open from 6 am - 10 pm. I have 39 servers on the roster but all I know is that I need 8 servers between 5:30 pm and 8:30 pm. And between 8:00 am - 1:00 pm I need 6 servers. How do I schedule what time each person comes and in and gets off work?

3 shifts, 8-3, 1-8, and 3-10.  That's based on 7 hr work schedules.  39 servers doesn't necessarily mean they are all full time employees. Basically have 4 people open, 3 midshifts, and 4 closers.


I have seen many abuses on this website about Islam, so iust tell me why you don't like us.

As a fellow Muslim, I do not think Christians, as a whole, hate Muslims.  However, I do believe there are ignorant people out there, Christian or not, who make false claims about Islam.  Oh well Brother, we know the Truth and that Islam is the right path.  We respect every religion and everyone.  We got lucky:)


to reinstall Win98. Where could i get a bootdisc & what would be the best way to reinstall.

Configure your bios to boot from the CD.  Win98 will boot from the CD so you don't really need a boot disk.  You also have the option of making another Win98 boot disk from another win98 machine and using that.


This is part of the life cycle of a star.

That depends on the mass and composition of the star.  For an average one like ours, it's a little under 10 billion years.  More massive stars and those with higher amounts of lighter elements tend to burn much hotter, so they normally use up their fuel and leave the main sequence earlier than smaller and more dense stars.


and were can i get it from. I notice that windows media and real player well the regular ones burn slow and i have a fast burner and now there messing up so iwas wondering were i can get a cd burining program from that works and is FREE


im trying to find a new internal harddrive but i dont know what type to get like there are those ata and then the raid and serial. what are they and how do i check what kind i have?

Look at the old hard drive.  There should be a label with the model number and manufacturer on it.  Search the model number at the manufacturer's web site.  It should tell you which kind of hard drive it it.\n\nTypically, it depends on what connector is on it.  A small connector which is about a little over half an inch is a serial ata connector.  A larger connector about 2 inches wide is a ata/uata/dma/udma/ide connector.  Each of these different modes are different transfer speeds, but plug looks the same.  By researching your model at the manufacturer's site will tell you what speed it will transfer at, thus giving you the right protocol hard drive to purchase.  \n\nfor example,\nultra 33 - theoretical 33 MHz transfer\nultra 66 - theoretical 66 MHz transfer\nultra 100 - theoretical 100 MHz transfer\nultra 133 - theoretical 133 MHz transfer\nsata 150 - theoretical 150 MHz transfer\n\nThere are also SCSI drives, but most mainstream home computers don't have them.\n\nHard drives don't come in RAID form, it is how how you set up your hard drives if your motherboard/host adapter supports RAID.  RAID is an array of hard drives.  You can use multiple hard drives in RAID to get effects such as combined output from multiple hard drives for more output speed, or for redundancy such as writing to two hard drives at once so you have an extra hard drive with with same data for backup in case one happens to die. More advanced versions of RAID can do both of these functions (combined output and redundancy) at the same time.

I want the corresponding Indian Standard Time

I am asking because there are always UNRATED bidders that never pay....I have had a person doing this to my auctions...and has let me know about it....how is this happening ? he is always under a new name....how many accounts can this person aquire to keep doing this ? I do not want to change my email addy, I have had this one ever since I started with aol....I do not want to change my yahoo! addy , I have had that one since 2001...help !!!!

You might check into the auctions to see if there is a way to block unrated bidders from bidding on your items. Or maybe you could set a reserve.


the cheque will be from Japan.. and I'm here in Macau..

you use it where it will be accpeted. or you can change it for cash in some money changer but the rates are ridiculously low. note that you only sign the traveller's check when you are about to spend it and NOT before.


I really need to know cuz i'm think about buying a new pc. Ohh and if i am thinking about buying a compaq pc i need to pick either a AMD 64 Athlong or an Amd Trenlum? or was it TRillium i forgot the word but i know it starts with a T

the amd and Intel are like Nike and Reebok, they just are the two major processors that everyone knows, basics are that amd did surpass Intel for a time but Intel is now making a comeback, the Pentium4 is better but that will depend on the processor speed, at this time you would want something 2.5 GHz and up.  if you want a better amd i would go with the amd 64 (x)2 which is two processors that work together as one.  it is usually 2.0 to 2.4 and they work as fast and a 4.0 GHz.


What's the interesting things will heppen when you are a social worker?

Many different things can happen to you when you are a social worker... it depends on where you worker or what population you want to work with.  I have been fortunate enough to work with the homeless population, prison population, substance abuse, adolescence, adults and families.  It is never a dull moment.

I have a really bad phobia of needles to the point that i avoid the dr's incase he asks for a blood test and start getting panicy even thinking about needles. please help!!

This is a trick that works for many phobias. It's surprisingly effective. I used it to help me deal with my claustrophobia. Do this exercise when you can find a few moments of uninterrupted quiet.\n\nYou imagine you are experiencing the event that scares you...in your case getting a shot or having blood drawn. Try to make the vision as vivid and real as possible. Put yourself into it completely. Play out your "movie" to the end, then reverse the film and play it back to the beginning.\n\nThe next step: You are sitting in a large movie theater. Look at the screen and watch your movie, but this time you are watching yourself on the screen, not actually in it. Again play out the movie to the end, then reverse it.\n\nNow make the movie in black and white. Play it through and reverse it.\n\nNext you are in the projection room. See it as vividly as possible. See where the movie is on a reel and projecting out into the theater below. Impress on yourself how flimsy the movie which is holding your fear is. Play the movie through from this perspective and reverse it.\n\nThat's all there is to it. Do this for a few days before you are to see the doctor. I know it seems too simple to work, but it certainly did for me. I had to have an MRI that required me to go head first into a large claustrophic machine. I was scared to death until I read about this exercise. I sailed through the test without a problem.

Hello:\nAm curious to know what's the name of the song & who is the Artist in the background when Steve Jobs discloses the following: \nRemember that the Sixties happened in the early Seventies, right, so you have to remember that and that's sort of when I came of age. So I saw a lot of this and to me the spark of that was that there was something beyond sort of what you see every day. It's the same thing that causes people to want to be poets instead of bankers. And I think that's a wonderful thing. And I think that that same spirit can be put into products, and those products can be manufactured and given to people and they can sense that spirit.

Watch the movie... at the end of it, during the credits (usually towards the end of the credits), it'll give a list of all the songs used in the film.


I don't !\n\n10 points if you find out what it is !

Hexakosioihexekontahexaphobia !\nWow girl, you really got me going thru web pages and such to find out what you were talking about !\nphew !\nok., My answer is :\nNo, I do not have Hexakosioihexekontahexaphobia.\n(phobia to the number 666)\nas a fact...I love that number !


According to the Bible it seems that all he wants is to be worshipped and nothing more.  And please don't give me any nonsense about rewarding you with Heaven and stuff because you'll only be in Heaven to worship some more.  \n\nIt says that man was created in God's image.  It must have been referring to dictators.\n\nLucifer must have wanted to be a rival dictator and that's why God banished him.\n\nYou'll prob try and give me the greatest act of selflessness was sending his son to die on the cross.... Nah, that was just trying to get the number of recruits up so he could hear people calling his name even more.\n\nPraise the Lord, Praise the Lord, Praise Jesus, Praise God, Allah, Yahweh, or whatever.\n\nIf that is not an accurate description, God needs a new agent.

God is not shallow! that is blaspemy!!\n\nHe made me in His image, so He must be smart, intelligent, sweet, cute, etc, etc. \n\nBut i can't really imagine that He made me in His image, because i really would have gotten a better agent. Creating people, creating food, and then let the half world die from hunger. \n\nGod is not shallow, He is an arrogant jurk.

whether is was someone you found attractive or someone that pissed you off and you decided to make their life miserable. i will say that i have gone out of my way to look or stare at someone i found attractive or take the wrong exit to keep out a guy in full view.

Oh yes!! With friends too so it was kinda fun.  The other night too I was fitness walking in the park and a cute guy was walking the other direction... I just walked faster so I came across him more often.


Don't worry about impressing her. Be yourself, and she'll feel more comfortable too. But if you do stumble over a few of your words, or forget what you were going to say, be willing to laugh at yourself. It will make you look more confident than you feel. Good luck!

Veronica Mars is nearing the end of its second season and as of now, it looks like there might not be a season three. I love Veronica Mars and think it is one of the best shows ever! If you like the show and want to see more of it, then tell your friends and family how great it is so that they can check it out. The show needs more fans if it is to continue. If you have never watched the show I encourage you to give it a shot. It is one of those little shows that no one hears about and it just slowly dies. Not for lack of talent on both the actors part and the writers part. It is a show that doesn't play by the rules of formulaic TV that is so common these days. This show is for smart people who like to be mentally engaged while they are watching television. Well, those are my thoughts. Check it out.

I LOVE VERONICA MARS. The show is great and I agree that more people should watch. The show has a great plot and the cast CAN act. I heard Veronica Mars is going to have a third season, so for all you veronica mars fan out there, dont worry because a whole new season will start along with a new great mystery yet to be solved.


Can anyone help me pay off my credit card? I was thinking if someone could just donate $1 it would at least get me started

Take out a home equity loan or take out a personal loan at the bank and pay off your card.  You still have the debt but you can cut the interest rate in half and that will make paying it off much easier.  Just don't run it up again if you do that, though.


My favorite is also the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.\n\nMy favorite episode is in the second season where Will's friend Tariq and Jazz was in a game show with Will and Carlton.\n\nWhat is the capital of Ohio. Tariq said the answer is "O", because the capital letter of Ohio is "O". Funny stuff.

i need to know some reasons why we went into somalia.....

1993, Mass starvation is killing Somalians due to drought. UN decides to send humanitarian aids but warlords of clans, such as the Habr Gadir led by Muhamad F. Aidid, withheld the aids and kept it for themselves. The UN sent US Marines to rectify the situation. Order is restored. The US Marines withdrew and UN took over. 23 Pakistani UN soldiers were ambushed and killed as they were distributing the aid. The UN asked for help from the US. TF Ranger was sent with 10th Mountain, 101st (SOAR) and Special Forces. \n\nThey set out to capture Aidid and his henchmen. The event of Oct. 3 became a catalyst for US to withdraw. 18 US servicemen died in an operation designed to capture Aidid's top lieutenants. More than 2,000 Somali civilian and militia men died. UN soon withdred after the US.\n\nIT WAS NOT AN IVASION. It was a humanitarian gesture.


Don't be a tool with this one, folks. give me some real opinions or move on.\n\nA) slavery\n\nB) Hitler's regime\n\nC) the teachings of the American Indians

a) No.  She became a superpower long after slavery had ended, and slavery was an inefficient way of gaining economic power (indeed, even during the slavery days, the economic power of the country was in the North, not in the South).  There was a much larger contribution to this from immigrants and being a large nation with a lot of natural resources.\nb) Yes.  Played a big role, as Hitler's regime and the subsequent war devastated Europe, while leaving the US virtually unscathed, beyond the loss of human life, which was much less for us than others.\nc) A small part.  The teaching of the Indians allowed early settlers to survive where they might have perished, especially as they were unwilling to try new foods that this continent had in abundance, but that only established a foothold on the continent.  America's ability to grow food using fewer people came later, and allowed others to pursue different professions, which led to her economic growth.


I have to present a specch on ' The importance of teachers in our life'. So, think hard and give me good points on it. Thanks, in advance.

Henry Adams said, "A teacher affects eternity; he can never tell where his influence stops." \nTeachers occupy a special place of privilege and responsibility, whether they are lecturing at a college, leading an honors seminar at a high school, beginning to acquaint children with the joy of learning at an elementary school, or instructing people in faith at a church. \n\nWe have paid insufficient attention to the roles that teachers play within the church, for good and for ill.


Why should I let you into my heaven?\nWhat would you say?


question was, i really just tried to be a friend to some one that said plzzzzzz, i am good natured so i im'd them, then got called a perv, the question i want to ask is, why does all the weirdos have to ruin this great place for those of us that are just trying to help! am hurting real bad, what do you guys have to say about that! i actually have tears. i am a grown man.but that was too much to handle.

Tony,you obviously have a big heart.Please don't be upset.


My wife is from Japan and works for a Japanese travel agency. They don't pay overtime and expect her to work saturdays without pay. They did not tell her this until after she agreed to work for them. They even tried to get me to sign some paper in Japanese saying I would pay the company back any money my wife may cost the company due to her mistake(There was no way I would sign it). All this is in the state of GA. Any resources that I can turn to in order to see if this legal?

I think they're still subject to US labor laws since they're actually working in the US.\n\nThere are positions are are considered "exempt" from overtime.\n\n>>\nWhen Congress enacted the FLSA, it created an exemption from the minimum wage and overtime pay requirements for "any employee employed in a bona fide executive, administrative, or professional capacity or in the capacity of outside salesman." >>  From site below/Dept. of Labor.\n\nMany state laws have further refinements so you should check the Georgia state laws.\n\nThere are labor law attorneys who can help you navigate this area.


Let me explain, I had a friend once when I was younger, his mom hated me she said I was a "devil" called me a "long haired freak" and wouldnt let her son hang out with me, I actually was not a bad kid, I did have longer hair but it was in in the 90's, anyway she went to church 4 times a week she and her other children sang christmas carols and acted all nicy nicy but I knew the real 2 faced side, she was baptist by the way ( not sure if this matters) but anyway Ive noticed alot of so called christians are like this..WHY cant we practice what we preech, and I dont mean me because I am not a christian or anything for that matter.

A lot of people think that in order to win, someone else has to lose.  In religion this translates as "Our church is going to Heaven, the rest of you are damned."\n\nThis is wrong.  Everybody can win, if we care for each other, and are humble in our victories. \n\nI have to say, that I have seen a lot of this in various fundamentalist oriented sects, and this is not limited to the Christians, but also Moslem funfamentalists such as the Taliban, and I'm sure many others.\n\nIn defense of Jesus, the Gospels tell of a man who taught humility, love, and patience.  He taught that we should love, not kill, our enemies.  And He died on the cross to save not only Christians (there were only a few disciples at that time) but all people, and that includes Osama, Sadaam, Adolph Hitler, the Dalai Lama, Hugo Chavez, and, yeah, even Pat Robertson and George W Bush.\n\nBut living up to Jesus' teachings is demanding- it requires you to accept your own responsibility and to change yourself.  This is a lot harder than denying it and blaming others, while hogging more of everything because "I deserve it."\n\nI suggest you look again at some other sects.  In some cities you will find the Episcopal church to be a lot more accepting of other spiritual paths.  I know there are others, but that's what I'm familiar with.  I do know this: Episcopals, at least, swear before God to "respect the dignity of every human being" as part of their baptismal vows.\n\nThere is no excuse for intolerance.  All people deserve to be treated with dignity.

I prefer this racquet


which of the QBs drafted this year will have a good career? I don't mean only the Big three, but all the others.

If you look at the team situations, Leinhart has the best chance at a good rookie season. Hes probably gonna end up starting, and the offensive weapons around him are amazing; Fitzgerald and Bolden, a great one-two punch at reciever, fellow rookie, Leonard Pope the tight end is gonna create some mismatches, and with James in the backfield...its gonna be a dangerous team. Cutler is gonna be under jake the snake and young might not start over McNair. if he does, the titans have fewer offensive weapons. most of the QBs from the draft arent gonna play much this year unless theres an injury


Hi\n\nHow do I save on paying taxes on 20 acres sold with no house. And I still own 7 acres with the house I live in.\nProperty sold in Missouri. I'm a senior citezen and married.\nI just can't see paying all that money in taxes just to much, I do all the work over the years and I've got to give up a large portion of the sale of the property and It's allready been sold and closed. Any help would be most appreciated, I appreciate any help but I will only do the legal way.\nThanks\nJeff

I'm not familiar with tax law in Missouri (I'm in Canada), but here are some general thoughts:\n\nIn some jurisdictions if you sell your "principle residence" there would be no tax payable.  Because you are keeping the 7 acres and house that probably would not apply.\n\nIn some places "capital gains", which is what you would have here would be taxed at a more advantageous (lower) rate.  Don't know about USA and Missouri in particular.\n\nDefinitely your taxing authorities will have publications you can acquire from their web sites, and no doubt they have staff you can telephone for advice.  I would check these options out before hiring an accountant.\n\nIf necessary, it may be that a knowledgeable accountant is in order.  There may be some ways to negate or defer the taxes that are payable, if any.  For example, it might be an opportunity to get rid of some "dogs" in your investment portfolio (if you have one), and offset your property gains against those losses.\n\nHope these few comments help you out.  Taxes are a terrible thing no matter where you are.


I will continue to live in my rental apartment and buy a house in another state that I will rent out. Will I get the tax benefits from owning this home that I miss out on by being a renter?

Depending on how you do this, you can write off expenses related to renting out that house.  This will usually be negligible unless you're really creative.\n\nOr, if you claim you live in the other state (pretty difficult if either state has an income tax), you can claim the house as your residence, and deduct your mortgage interest.\n\nMight also try setting up a business, having its sole function be management of your rental property.  You can deduct expenses related to the property, plus if you set up a bedroom in your apartment as an office, you can write off a percentage of your rent and utilities.\n\nI'd get an attorney's advice before trying any of these.
