knowing that every time we see each other he seems more distant because he suspects that I have a crush on him, and is terrified of my strict parents.

Yes it is perfectly normal and it shows that you are interested in him.


I would like to start a small technology (web development) business in Texas? What is the best way to go about this?

That's a pretty broad question; it really depends on your specific business.  What do you plan to do?  \n\nAt the very least you need to make sure you have a business plan with at least an idea of your specific market and a detailed breakdown of your estimated cash flows.  I would recommend starting at the sites listed below; they have some good free resources that can jump start the business planning and marketing planning process. \n\nOne thing I would also recommend is finding a mentor in the business/industry you are going to start.  There's is nothing more valuable than real world experience and you would be surprised to see how many successful business owners are willing to share their knowledge!


I've been trying several techniques. Like get a good night's rest (doesn't work if you don't know the material), study sleep 3 hours and exam, sleep first then study and exam. And using various energy drinks/foods, etc. \n\nWhich strategy works best for you?

notecards with fact on front definition/source on the back, they really help with memorzation, and you absorb information retained throughout the day while sleeping so don't stay up all night. rest before a test is good.

i first heard this song playing an xbox game (jet set revolution). anything else have that same sound and feel? i am not too familiar with the japanese girl band genre.

So many great Japanese girl bands...\n\nYou should get "Viva La Woman" by Cibo Matto first\n\nThen try out these:\n\nPuffy AmiYumi  "Nice"\nShonen Knife  "Let's Knife"\nBuffalo Daughter  "New Rock"\n\nThese are what you are looking for and all are great.


So I'm in the middle of a break up...it really hurts and is so painfull. As much as I love this person, I hate him as well...He have lie, call me names, have pushed me and many times have ignore me. I miss him so much, we have children together, but I have realized I can not live in this environment anymore. Its to painful to fight and argue 24/7. I have made my mind in living and taking care of myself and my children, but then he'll come and the minute he gets close to me...I melt. BUT i'm still very hurt...He's 78% bad to me and things are not good between us for the past months....but I can hide the fact that he have changed and haven't been around me. What should I do. Believe me I dont think he will agree to counseling...He think he is too smart for that....

It sounds like you do love this man but the old saying is good here.. "If mom isn't happy no one else is"  Yes I will be truly hard to start by yourself but I did it after I left a man that pushed me around and called me names and pretty much just made me feel like a piece of trash.  I have 2 children and I found a man the loves and respects me and my children.  I understand that love is hard to past especially when you have children involed. But you need to be strong. not just for yourself but for the children too. It is hard but you are a woman and just tell yourself when he comes around and tries to get you in his little trap "I am a woman strong and hear me roar" just keep telling your self that when he is around and hopefully you will be strong enough to stay out of the trap. I believe ppl change but at the same time the little pushing he does on you is just the first sign of abuse and with him doing mental abuse too it won't be long before it is so bad to where you are too scared to leave and if you need help there is so many places that have woman there to help you in your problems and I agree with you about counseling I don't see him going. I just feel that staying away from him is the best thing you can do for you and your children. And about him coming to see the children well you can have someone else there with you while he visits with the children he  has come to see them not you and make that clear to him. I think you can be strong and stronger then him if you have someone in your corner with you. Even just a friend or sibbling. Here is a website for you and there you can learn some things good luck and I wish you all the best.

Which team currently has the best rotation in baseball? Why?

It is obviously the White Sox.  They already had four pitchers who were throwing shutouts in the playoffs and Series, then they add another top pitcher in the deal with Arizona.  After adding Thome, look for a repeat championship.


Right, Gandolf, creator of miracles (aka Magic), returned from the dead & left the Earth for the meek.(aka Hobbits in MiddleEarth).\nDoesn't this sound more Jesus like than a talking lion?\nAfter all, Tolkien did convert Lewis to Christianity.

Although that may be, that Gandolf also has similarities to Jesus, however, C.S.Lewis specifically stated that he wrote the Narnia series to indoctrinate children into Christian beliefs, and so that they would be more amenable to them when they were older. \n\nAs a matter of fact, he specifically says this in one of the Narnia books, The Dawn Treader. At the end of the book, Lucy and Edmund meet Aslan in the form of a lamb (a lamb!). To Lucy's question about how to enter Aslan's country, the lamb replies: "For you the door into Aslan's country is from your own world." Then, after the lamb is changed back into Aslan, Edmund asks: "Are--are you there [in our world] too, Sir?" Aslan responds "I am...But there I have another name. You must learn to know me by that name. This was the very reason why you were brought to Narnia, that by knowing me here for a little, you may know me better there." \n\nC.S.Lewis, through Aslan, makes it clear that the young reader's experiences through the Narnia series have just been to prepare them for recognizing Jesus in their own world.


I know this guy for two years now from the internet.He is from oversea.He suppose to come here to meet me last year Oct but he can't come because of work.And then he wants to come this Christmas too but he can't make it either because of work too.His work is very demanding.I like him very much and I feel very sad if I broke it up with him.He is a very nice person.He told me that he is very mad right now and been thinking of quitting his job.We have not been talking for two weeks now.Sometimes I just wonder whether it is worth it or not to be with him or whether he cares about me or how important I am to him.I just don't know what to do now.I wish I don't have to broke up with him.I am the one who made an effort in the relationship.I ask him to get a cellphone and ask him to come in Feb.Otherwise he will never thought of doing that.He told me that he has apply for a leave in Feb and come here to see me and will get a cellphone soon so that we can talk.What is your advice on this?

e-mail him and say you have a surprise for him and them do something sexual


I am just wondering because my StepFather is Hispanic and he has took me to Mexico, the United states tells hispanics to get a green card if they want to come hear, but how when they can't even make enough to buy food? Granted there has been many incidents with hispanics they are just trying to feed there family like many of us.

You're assuming that we are actually helping Iraq.  \n\nI don't think we're helping Iraq.  I don't think we should be "helping" Iraq.  In fact, the U.S. has a very poor track record "helping" other countries.  More often than not, the other countries end up worse off than before.\n\nAllowing unlimited Mexicans to enter the U.S. is not going to help Mexico or Mexicans.  It will simply depress the already depressed economy in the border areas, and in metropolitan areas farther north.\n\nNor will having the U.S. just throw money at Mexico help for more than a very short time.  It may feed people for a short time, but it won't improve the economy.  \n\nMexico is poor because it is poor in natural resources, especially in arable land. The only way to improve the economy is to either improve the natural resources available or find ways of providing valuable goods services to entities outside of Mexico so that money is flowing into the country.


i used to be able to double click on an excel spreadsheet residing on my desktop and automatically be taken right into it ... now, it will not open that way... i need to go into excel and then open it.  any ideas?  thanks!

This will be my first business venture and i just want to make sure that all the bases get covered. the restaurant is already established, in a really small town. It already has a good costumer base. I am only 22 with no proper business training, but I have worked in the restaurant business for several years. I would like to know where I can find info on what exactly I should do to go about getting started, how I could get a government grant, or find out how to accuratly project the funding that I will need.

Make sure to check on the insurance.  It can be very high for a new business.  Are you going to be serving alcohol?  Liquor liability costs a lot.  When you do open, get the word out there.  Tell everyone.  Hand deliver take-out menus to all the local businesses for lunch.  Introduce yourself.


I have a girlfriend.\n\nwe began to go out for 6 months.\n\nat first, she looked very healthy and cheerful.\n\nbut now she looks sad everyday. \n\nlast monday, she said me she was very sick. she is cancer. and not go long.\n\nI met her doctor. he said same thing like her.\n\nnow we don't have much time.\n\nI'd like to do something for her.\n\nwhat can I do for her?

The best thing you can do is stay with her through out her life as long as she lives.. She needs to be comforted.. Spend as much time with her as you can in a way that she can forget that she is ill and is going to die

Originally developed by Radio UserLand as a native file format for an outliner application, it has since been adopted for other uses, the most common being to exchange lists of RSS feeds between RSS aggregators.\n\nThe OPML specification defines an outline as a hierarchical, ordered list of arbitrary elements. The specification is fairly open which makes it suitable for many types of list data.

Well, I am a cyclist and this is kind of cliche, but Lance Armstrong.  The man won Tour de France for the seventh time in a row.  A very tough event which covers three weeks, more than two thousand miles, with just two days "off" which are used to travel, and through the Pyrenees and French Alps!  He and other professional cyclists train many tens of thousands of miles each year, burning around about a thousand calories per hour, lots of pain to add.  The longest stage in 2005 was over 140 miles, and mind you, the day before that stage was also over 140 miles as well.  This is with no commercial breaks, time outs, half times, substitutions, or any other sort of break other than a crash if you are unfortunate to get into one.  They even have to eat during the course of the race!  And I could go on...  Lance has this event seven times.

I'm doing a science project, one page minimum, on a disease caused by viruses. I have chosen to research the common cold. I need info on an aprox. 8-12th grade level. Thank you!\nP.S. If you reply please do not use shorthand, I can never decipher it. Thanks again.

The common cold (also known as "acute nasopharyngitis") is a mild viral infectious disease of the nose and throat; the upper respiratory system. Symptoms include sneezing, sniffling, running/blocked nose (often these occur simultaneously, or one in each nostril); scratchy, sore, or phlegmy throat; coughing; headache; and tiredness. Colds typically last three to five days, with residual coughing lasting up to three weeks. As its name suggests, it is the most common of all human diseases, infecting subjects at an average rate of slightly over one infection per year per person. Infection rates greater than three infections per year per person are not uncommon in some populations. Children and their caretakers are at a higher risk, probably due to the high population density of schools and the fact that transmission to family members or caretakers is highly efficient.\n\nThe common cold belongs to the upper respiratory tract infections. It is different from influenza, a more severe viral infection of the respiratory tract that shows the additional symptoms of rapidly rising fever, chills, and body and muscle aches. While the common cold itself is hardly life threatening, its complications, such as pneumonia, can very well be.

infants are mostly sleeping in the bed.but if an adult is bed ridden for few months,he gets bed sore.what must b the reason?

Bed sores are caused by pressure being applied to the same place for long periods.  Pressure reduces the blood  circulation and this causes the tissue to die.\n\nInfants are always moving around.  Whenever they get a little uncomfortable they wiggle a bit and change the places where the pressure is.  This allows blood to circulate everywhere so the tissue does not die.


if Celsius based on \n0 = freezing point \n100 = boiling point\n\nThan what is Fahrenheit temperature based on?\n0 = very cold?\n100 = very hot?

0 degrees Farenheit is the freezing point of SALT water.  Farenheit lived near the ocean.

I want to be able to send a newsletter to a list of email addresses without giving away the names to others. A program that I could compose a message and then check the names to send indivitiual messages

I do the same thing for my customers. To not give the addresses away to other people and to protect them from spam ... \nIN THE TO: field, send the message to yourself\nIN THE CC: field, keep this blank\nIN THE BCC: field (Blind Carbon Copy), fill in the addresses. Most programs accept a comma between the addresses to add more people.\n\nNow that you know how to do what you were asking, there are now MANY better ways to send a newsletter IF these people REALLY want the news in the letter of your so-called "newsletter".\n\nhttp://360.yahoo.com/, Yahoo's 360\nhttp://groups.yahoo.com/ Yahoo's Groups\nor you can share your yahoo calandar http://calendar.yahoo.com/\nYou can have RSS Feeds to their own home page\nor many many other less intrusive ways of getting your news out in a letter.


One was great, the other is a could-have-been.


My 2 boys love them and couldnt get enough of them.  So I am interested to know if there are any other sequels other than the movie "My Neighbour Totoro".

There are no sequals to "Tonari no Totoro" (My Neighbor Totoro is the American title).  Any of the movies by Studio Gibli are great, though Princess Mononoke is a little grisly for younger children (at one point, a man gets his arm chopped off).  I was not a big fan of the most recent one, Howl's Moving Castle.  However, any of the other ones are absolutely enchanting with great animation and stories.  My children love Castle in the Sky, as well.  Trust me, you can't go wrong with any of them.  (Totoro is my personal favorite, too.)

Howard is funny and he's a great interviewer, if a little full of himself, but Opie and Anthony have created a show that's astonishingly entertaining and I'm not exaggerating.

Howard is The King Of All Media circa 1992. In 2005 his act is rather stale and repetitious. Strippers 24/7 are simply not that entertaining. HooHoo tel'em Fred


Apparently I am the only one in my family who notices the American flag in about every movie I've seen, which my family says can't be very many.

The reason is that Hollywood filmmakers are one of the most anti-American groups possible, and do not believe in typical American values. To balance out any possible criticism, they pretend to be American by such gratuitous displays as flags.


i havent been paying attention to hockey since i moved from co but i was just curious what everyone else thought..

Probably to the Division Series at the most . . . with a record of 17-14-4 they're 7 points behind the first place Canucks and 5 behind Calgary and Edmonton. I know its not even midway through the season, but the way they're playing now, they can do better, but they're in a slump now.

According to http://answers.yahoo.com/question/;_ylt=Anir7XAfajAFKwLHDx7aY4kjzKIX?qid=1005121206049, Yahoo and MSN will merge next year. Is that true?

The news behind this is that there's a plan to link their IM clients together, to allow MSN users to IM Yahoo users, and vice versa.  It's much like the plan with ICQ and AIM--both will still exist, but both will work with each other.

If my kids are smart and happy, are their grades important?  I think so, but I am having a hard time convincing them that they are important, so that they try hard in school.  What do you think?

...Testing and grading people are the only quantative way  society measures people.    I personally disagree with society putting emphasis on grades in school or money when out in the workforce as the badges of success.    Neither of the tangibles are measures or formulas for HAPPINESS.  If you have bright happy youngsters you have done a great job.   School, grades,  work and the accumulation of money should be taught to your kids as if it is a "board game".  If you truly have bright happy kids they should be able to "play" and succeed at the game of "LIFE".  However if they fail to achieve the measures of society they should be urged to covet and nuture their intellectual curiosity while seeking what brings joy in their life and the lives of others.  Neither of these aspects of life are graded or measured by society and in the pursuit of such things are all their own rewards.


I've got a weird phenomenon since a few days. Sometimes my screen goes black for 1 or 2 seconds, but afterwards everything works fine again. For example if I'm in my mail application and I'm creating a new mail. When this new mail window appears the screen will go black briefly and then come back again. I've tested my XP for viruses, trojan horses etc. Nothing found. Any ideas?

I think that the video controller software is having problems. You might want to change the video memory by changing the resolution and try. For this you have to down all windows (WIND+D), and then in empty area on desktop, right click and then in properties go to settings and play with different resolutions. Remember the original numbers there so that you can restore the settings, in case it wont help or makes matters worst.

The server is running Microsoft Windows, so we currently choose Microsoft Access.  The current version is supported by Access and it's a webpage by IIS.  I wonder if there's any crucial drawbacks of such a system.\n  For example, how about the capacity of Access?  How about SQL Server, in comparison of the capacity with Access?\n  Furthermore, any comments on Linux and MySQL?

There are basically a few things that can be considered CRUCIAL: the cost, the application requirement, and the performance. I think it boils down to what is the highest priority to you. For my case, the highest is the cost, then the business requirement, then the performance.\n\nOnce you get yuor priority sort out, the rest is simple. Do you know what is the best combination (DBMS + Web_server + front_end_tools) in terms of cost/performance? In my humble opinion I would say MySQL + Apache + PHP. Why? See, I can have SQL+Apache+PHP installed in my WinXppro workstation as single-user environment for development. Then I can deploy the app in either Linux or Windows which has the 3 installed. It can be deployed in a client-server, intranet, or internet environment regardless of OSes. The best is, they are free.\n\nAnd all the client computers need are a web-browser.\n\nFYI, you can obtain ODBC for MySQL if you are to use Access instead of PHP+web_browser as the frontend.\n\nHow about OS?  I think it's entirely on you. All you need to think about is who's going to install/configure/maintain the system and how much does it cost you short & long terms. As for me, I go for Linux because: \n1) it's free, and it comes with MySQL, Apache and PHP;\n2) it's not as hard to install as you would think, and there are tutorials all over the web;\n3) without spending too much (on Windows+CALs) usually makes my top manager happier;\n\nHope this help.


That really depends on how complex your game is and whether the game is 3d or 2d.  If you want to get down to the nitty gritty then you are looking at C++, Java, etc.  However, any more these days there are development frameworks that jumpstart the process.  For example, the Unreal Engine 3 is a whole game development platform which was used for building Gears of War (XBOX 360) I'm sure will likely be a PC title too.  These frameworks can be expensive, but some of the more basic ones can even be free.


Do we the people still have control of our Country as a founding fore-fathers entended? Or has it just become a powder coat, washed over like a water color, to keep an old tired dog at bay?

NO!!!!!  Our coutry is controled be a network of people, Alumin, Mayson, skulls. United Nations.  They give WE THE PEOPLE a false sence of security.

WE THE PEOPLE allow gay's to teach our children, WE THE PEOPLE are ok with abortion, WE THE PEOPLE sugar coat our own lies, murders, adultries, greed and lust.  \nNO!!!!!!\nWE THE PEOPLE lost control long ago.\nWE THE PEOPLE need to repent and invite God back into our country. \nLess we fall in a ditch, when the blind leads the blind. *****BIBLE SAYS*******\nWE THE PEOPLE need to elect true men of God, as Heads of State not false ones "GB" \nanalizing the fruit that they bare before we elect them.\nI feel dispare for WE THE PEOPLE because I know that we won't change. \nWE THE PEOPLE will just go on feeding our fat faces watching reruns on TV, and playing Video Games, While little satans grow in power and run our nation.\nWE THE PEOPLE please!!!!   look for Christ


Unless the USA goes to war with another people,the public in the US is almost unaware about people, their history, culture etc outside of the USA??\nWHY??

Because we are general stuck on the fact that we are right and nobody could be as great as us. Even in war we usually destort the culture of another country to make it seem worse then it is. But that is a general statement there are people who love to learn about other cultures (me and another on this page) but mostly it is because we arrogant.


It's for my blog.  And would it matter if I'm using GIFs or JPEGs?

You'll need to use gifs to animate them... (jpegs cannot be animated). Basically, you make the different steps ("frames") of the animation, like the way traditional cell animation is done, then just arrange them in the correct order in a program like Image Ready, and save the .gif file.\n\nIf you need software, check out free or shareware programs on download.com for software that will help you assemble the frames of your animation, like the trial version of Ulead GIF Animator 5.0 (which is supposedly pretty easy to use).\n\nGood luck.


I feel like all the dating websites I've tried never get me any responses.  I'm curious what other people have tried as far as profiles and opening emails (specifically from guy to girl) to generate a response.  Anyone have any success stories?

Different arena....same dumba$$es.\n \nThat said, I keep it real and I always get a ton of attention. Oh yeah, helps that I'm a hottie!\n\nJust don't have unrealistic expectations. Ask yourself why someone is on their computer so much. Ask and don't settle for anything less than what you want. And ALWAYS keep it safe, meet in public and assess the situation.


We want to change our email address to nurturewellness@yahoo.com

As far as I know,there is no way to change the name you start out with though you can start a new account. Not a big deal I guess, then just let everyone know of the change. Or you can upgrade to a paid service Good Luck


i'm going to see my boyfriend on the 30th and i wnat to surprise him w/ something nice but i don't know wut to get him. our 1 month is next week too and i also wnat to do something romantic. it's a long distance relationship and we don't get to see each other alot so it has to be something good. i thought about maybe getting him a bracelet or some new jordans but i don't know can you guys help me out.

Actually I think it is sweet. But my instincts tell me that he doesn't need you to spend money on him. Some fun and romantic gesture would be that much more meaningful. One time I did a really fun thing for a guy I was dating at the time. I wrote about thirty little things on pieces of paper and folded them up and put them in a jar I decorated. That whole weekend we kept pulling out little slips of paper and doing whatever they said. Some were real spontaneous involving jumping in the car and going somewhere. Others were more intimate. :D Others still were fun loving and silly and goofy but great fun. Think of things you know he likes to do. (Hockey, baseball, reading, writing) and center some of the activities around that. Still again center some around things you like to do. Its a great way to get to know one another at the same time you are having a blast! Good luck and I so hope you see this two months later!!!


Since 2003,I have been in the United States for 2 years. I have to go back to my country next years because of a family issue. That means I will be in the US for 3 years continuously. And I would like to come back to the US twice a year, but I would only stay for a few days. Can I be naturalized in the US in 2008? My immigration category is F4.

If you are here on an F4 *visa* (dependant of student), you cannot apply for citizenship at all.\n\nIf you entered as an F4 immigrant category (4th preference family based - sibling of a U.S. citizen), it is important when your permanent residency was granted (the date on the green card).\n\nRequirements for citizenship are:\n- Continuous residence: no trips abroad lasting more than 6 months at a time. \n- Physical presence: at least 30 months of total time spent in the USA.\n\nIn some way, this is good news for you -- if you can be in the USA for 2.5 years by the time you leave for your home country, and then come back for 2 days every 6 months afterwards (5 trips), you should theoretically be fine. \n\nUSCIS officers do have some discretion in determining your intent to live in the USA, and being absent for almost all of the last 2.5 years of your residency might not look good. \n\nA less well-known requirement is that you must be a resident of a particular single *state* 3 months before applying for citizenship -- I'm not sure what state residency means -- it may be as simple as having a particular driver's license.

Vincent Klyn was on the World Wide Surf Tour in the mid 1980's and was ranked one of the top 5 surfers in the world, before he started acting in movies in 1989. He can be seen surfing for about 5 seconds in "Point Break", in 1991, and I'm sure he surfs in the many tv shows he was in like "Baywatch" (are those available on dvd?), but I can't find the titles of the over 100 surfing movies he made. Can anyone help?

His biggest role was in "Cyborg", a 1989 Jean-Claude Van Damme movie. See the link below for more movie info.\nhttp://www.imdb.com/name/nm0460288/

Whenever you sing in the shower, it sounds really good.  But whenever you record yourself singing the sound is horrific.  Why is that?

The acoustics of a shower give you more reverberation (since you have at least five hard surfaces surrounding you), which bounces the sound around more. This adds some echo that blends the sound together so that the ugly parts are covered up.\n\nAnd if you're wondering about the car, usually you sound better there because you're singing along with someone, which (1) gives you a guide so that you stay on key more easily, and (2) gives you another voice so that the ugly parts are, once again, covered up.


my brother has no reliable income to pay for therapy and is unable to work due to his condition we need to know if there are ANY free programs to help him   what steps should i take if he is unwilling to help himself and is a danger to others

Has anyone made a lovespell that worked?\nWhat exactly did you do and what happened?\n\nI just think this is fun to hear about.\nPleas don't make anything up about hurting animals or bologna like that.

I so liked your wisdom about whether or not wearing pants is a sin for a woman, that I decided to award you the gift of my own wisdom regarding love spells. \n\nHere is one that definitely works:\nYou have to wish yourself off on someone and wish them on you as the sole action of the spell itself.\n\nHowever, it takes a bunch of other mumbo-jumbo around it to actually make it work. Things like: hocus-pocusly granting the other person the right to be who they are; willingness to mysteriously back them up whenever they need it; the outrageously occult ability to exercise tough love and deny them something if they take advantage of your good graces; The totally wizard intuition to throw any and all rules overboard just for the hell of it and confer love and kindness on them for no reason at all; There are many more but one of them is the esoteric ability to disregard what everyone says about solely accepting them as they are despite the fact that the universe is built on change, and instead, to subtly lead them from behind toward their goals rather than yours and to find some way to embrace those goals while making it possible for them to embrace yours.  \n\nAll of this is total fantasy and probably could never work as no-one has access to the deep and dark secret that enables it (except me, of course).

That's it, that's the question. There has to be an answer somewhere.

This is a fairly easy question to answer.  Even though they have a decent defense, ranked 14th, with one of the best corners in the league in DeAngelo Hall, the lack the offense.  They do own the run game as a team, but as we saw this past weekend against the Bears, when the run is stopped, Vick is forced to pass, which he is not to good at.  He has only thrown for a little over 2,100 yards, while Tom Brady has thrown for over 3,800.  Sure Vick is fun to watch on the higlight real, but I would never want him to start as my QB.

unit linked young star\nunit linked pension plan

HDFC Standard Life launched its unit linked insurance and pension plans. The company has launched 2 products on the unit-linked platform – HDFC Unit Linked Endowment Plan and HDFC Unit Linked Pension Plan. Through their flexible features the plans can be structured according to an individual’s specific needs and risk appetite. The HDFC Unit Linked Endowment Plan will help an individual grow his savings in the long term while providing ongoing risk cover and the HDFC Unit Linked Pension Plan will help him in accumulating a corpus for post retirement life. These plans are targeted at individuals who want to make their own investment choice while choosing their insurance and pension plans. Moreover, the flexibility of increasing premium contributions in an existing account will be of particular help to the unorganised segment of the market in managing their cash flows. \n\nCommenting on the new plans, Mr Deepak Satwalekar, Managing Director & CEO, said, “With this launch we have a complete range of solutions to offer to customers. The unit linked plans will offer a choice of investment options to customers looking for the same. In addition, this launch will help us tap the emerging opportunity of the new pension scheme for the government employees” \n\nHDFC Standard Life is confident of delivering good long-term investment returns to its unit linked policyholders. The company has a good track record in managing policyholder funds and as a result has declared 3 consecutive bonuses in the last three years on its “with profit” products. The competitive charging structure for the newly launched unit linked plans is one of the lowest in the market and will help in delivering better long-term returns to policyholders. The recently launched gratuity plan funds have performed well in the short term, which too is a reflection of the company’s investment expertise. \n\n\nHDFC Standard Life sees its pre-sale advice as a clear differentiator and in pursuance of this strategy, the company is launching its unit-linked plan through specially trained and certified Financial Consultants. HDFC Standard Life Insurance is the only company to have a special training followed by a test before allowing Financials Consultants to advice customers on these products. While elaborating on this Mr. Satwalekar said, “With the flexibility and options offered under the unit linked platform, a well trained Financial Consultant will help a customer structure his plan and derive the maximum value from it. Since the customer will have to monitor his investments periodically, good advise and education by our Financial Consultant will be a key input for the customer to utilise the flexible feature of the plans.”\n\n\n\nThe newly launched plans offer a lot of flexibility to customers. The HDFC Unit Linked Endowment Plan comes with 5 fund options to match a customer’s risk profile. This plan allows the customer to choose the level of life insurance cover he needs and also a optional health cover. In addition the customer can switch monies between funds, re-direct future premiums and also top up premiums to invest additional income. The HDFC Unit Linked Pension Plan comes with 4 fund options and allows customers to switch between funds, re-direct future premiums and top up when needed.\n\nFor further information on HDFC Standard Life Insurance Co. Ltd, do visit www.hdfcinsurance.com.

they are really expensive boots i cant wash and dont want to throw out.

Everybody is familiar with this phenomenon. Most of us have a friend or relative who can clear out a room when they kick off their shoes. And even the sweetest smelling person can do a decent job stinking up a pair of shoes by running a few miles in them. So what's going on here? Why do your feet have a stronger odor than the rest of you does?\n\nThe main thing that feeds foot smell is sweat. With more than 250,000 sweat glands each, your feet are among the most perspiring parts of the body. In one day, each foot can produce more than a pint of sweat! Sweat is basically just salt and water, though, so it doesn't have a distinctive smell of its own. The smell is actually caused by bacteria on our skin that eats the sweat and excretes waste that has a strong odor. It's perfectly normal to have bacteria on your skin, and it doesn't ordinarily produce a noticeable smell, but sweat attracts bacteria and gives them a whole lot to feed on.\n\nOf course we sweat all over -- our hands have a comparable number of sweat glands, for example -- and most of the rest of our body doesn't particularly stink (the armpits being a notable exception. See How Sweat Works for details.) So what's different about our feet? The answer is our socks and shoes. The sweat our feet excrete can't easily escape into the air like the sweat our hands excretes -- it all collects on our skin and in our socks. The bacteria love this dark, damp feast and have a sort of feeding frenzy. When you take off your shoes, the smell that hits you is all the bacteria excretion that's collected on your feet and in your socks and shoes.\n\nThe main reason some people's feet (or more precisely, some people's socks and shoes) smell worse than other people's is that some people sweat more than other people. This is just one of the many variable physiological qualities of human beings. This is also why sometimes your feet smell much worse than at other times -- it all has to do with how much you sweat.\n\nSo, since foot odor is caused by bacteria digesting sweat, there are two main ways to reduce the stink. You can:\n\n    * decrease the amount of bacteria on your feet\n    * decrease the amount of sweat that collects on your feet and in your shoes \n\nReducing the level of bacteria is really a matter of cleanliness. To control the bacteria population on you feet, you should:\n\n    * wash your feet with strong anti-bacterial soap\n    * wear clean socks\n    * don't wear the same shoes everyday - give a pair of shoes 24 hours or more to air out before wearing them again \n\nTo reduce the amount of sweat that collects in your shoes, you should:\n\n    * wear well-ventilated shoes instead of very constrictive shoes, such as boots\n    * always wear socks, preferably made of cotton or other absorbent materials that absorb a lot of the sweat so the bacteria can't feed on it\n    * change your socks a few times a day\n    * buy some absorbent Odor-Eater type shoe inserts\n    * apply an antiperspirant to your feet \n\nIf your foot odor is really bad and these solutions don't help much, then you should see a doctor. There are a number of prescription drugs that can treat serious foot odor, some by killing bacteria and some by reducing foot sweat

Without asprin but something that gets rid of them quickly.

Rub your temples in a circular motion with slight pressure for 2 to 3 seconds and repeat.If that doesn't work,put a cold rag on your forehead and rub the back of your head between the base of your head and your neck,(the soft area there),with your thumb in the same way as your temple for 2 to 3 seconds.do this for a couple of minutes and it should work.


Most of the questions and answers I see are so garbled I can't even read them. What is wrong with these people? I know some of them are from foreign countries, but damn their typing is pitiful. Also, most of the people from here in the US can't be understood. Well, anyway I just needed to get that out. If you agree let me know.

Unfortuantly, yes most of the people here are speaking (their form) of English. Most of the people on Yahoo! answers are just posting any old thing like "y da ski bloo?" (translation) > why is the sky blue? or "my mama an dad BAD. wat i d0?" > just to get points so they can brag about how "helpful" they are and about the only thing you can do is report them to Yahoo! I know how it feels. I get bugged, too!

Your question was hard to follow.  Are you simply trying to access your desktop computer via your laptop from your home or office?  I think your trying to access it from somewhere else, I recomend http://www.hamachi.cc/ , just install it on both computers and you'll instantly see eachother as if you were on the same local network.

Every Halloween Night, 'A Seance' is held to bring back the ghost of Harry Houdini. Before his death, he had told everyone that coming back after he was dead would be his greatest trick of all time.

A seance is often used to contact restless spirits that are known to exhibit behavior that manifests in ways that humans perceive, thus it isn't necessary that anyone believe since the apparitions in question all ready want to speak those in the seance need only be present and ask if they want to.\n\nIf you conduct a seance and nothing happens, it is not because anyone does or doesn't believe. The manifestation of the Spirit Person does not require human energy to be produced. The reason the spirit did not manifest is because it wasn't there or didn't want to be heard.\n\nA seance can not "drag" a spirit out of limbo to speak to you. This would be summoning, or even demonology. Often these events are said to happen by accident where a door between the worlds is unintentionally opened and from that other side come energies that take the opportunity to leave their world and explore ours. You would be lucky indeed if you opening this rift and it just so happened that the spirit that walked through was the energy of the 1 in 1 billion souls that is the one you are looking for.


me and my boyfriend are alwayz talking on the phone but we never see each other...and i think i love him but when i go to school and talk to all these other guys its like i forget about my bf and my feelings change but then wheni get home and hear his voice over the phone it is then that i kno i love him...wat should i do?

It kind of sounds to me that you are more lonely than in love with your boyfriend. You seem to be happy when you are talking to guys in general, not just when you are talking to your boyfriend, so that would lead me to believe that you are lonely when you are on your own. If this is the case then maybe you should be on your own and just make sure that you spend a lot of time with your friends, and when you have met the right person then you will know.


I already know what it means.\nI was just wondering what you were going to say and if I was wrong.

Someone once said, "There is no such thing as a dumb question." You my love, have proven them wrong. Either you are really ignorant, or you are just slow.


do you judge people by looks, personality, way-of thinking...

Initially, people judge people by appearance and actions, because these are the first things that you can observe about someone.  You can judge this up close or from a distance.  People usually judge based on comparing another person to their own appearance, and how much the appearance differs from their own appearance.\n\nIf someone takes the time to get to know someone, they will judge a person on "deeper" issues:  intelligence, ways of spending time, ways of treating others, and beliefs.  Of course, these again are perceived by the person that is doing the judging, and they're usually compared to their own characteristics/beliefs.\n\nShould people judge people?  Yes, and no.  It's good to have standards that you expect of people, in terms of how you are treated, and standards of common decency.  However, one should keep in mind that this world would be a boring place if we were all the same, and that everyone does not have the same experiences that you have. So, although judging is hard to avoid, you have to control what you do with your judgements.  And it's always good to reassess what you think of someone.  Try to get to know people better.

Cuz i am getting an HP computer and i wondered if it was better than Dell...What do u think? (And my mom has a Shuttle, my brothers have a Gateway)

From personal experience, HP has always had great computers that always worked. Dell however I have always had problems with, they would always crash, or something would go wron with them. Gateway on the other hand I haven't used so I couldn't give you an opnion about them.\n\nReviewers would also agree somewhat on those 3 brands, PC World has done a review on desktop PCs. Of the 3 brands, HP comes out first, Then Gateway comes second, then Dell third. Gateway has a few PCs which are next to Dell or below Dell in the rankings. Overall, I would say HP is the clear winner.

Yoshi is the fastest runner in his class, yet on the three-mile run, yoshi lost to the slowest runner in his classs. how is this possible?

Slow and steady wins the race--- the only thing I can think of is that the slowest runner had much more stamina than Yoshi. Yoshi must have had the least amount of stamina in his class.

A lightbulb is in a room which only has one door- no windows. On the outside of the room there are three switches- only one controls the light. You may only open the door once but you cannot keep it open while you are touching the switches. How can you find out which is the right switch? If you have already heard this riddle from elsewhere then please don't answer.

Lets  name the Switches as "A","B","C".\n\nTurn the switch "A" on. Switch it iff\nTurn the switch "B" on.\nOpen the door..\n\nIf the bulb is glowing, the switch "B" is the answer.\nIf not, then touch the bulb. If it is hot, "A" is correct switch else "C" is the answer.\n\n\nI think I've got this one correct.


Just wondering what my GPA would be if I got an a, an a-, and a b in three courses.

Obviously his school uses a minus system if he has the potential to get an A-. \n\nIs this college or high school? I will assume college since this is the college board. It also depends on the credit hours of each class\n\nSystems that use both plus and minus grades usually assign an additoinal 0.30 points for + and subtract 0.3 points for -. Thus, an A- should be around a 3.7 and a B+ would be a 3.30.\n\nPoint Value * Credit hours = GP\nSum up your GP and divide by the sum of your credit hours and that is your GPA.\n\n4.0 * 3 = 12\n3.7 * 3 = 11.1\n3.0 * 3 = 9\n\n12+11.1+9 = 32.1\n32.1/9 = 3.57


You could make a cloud chamber. It's a chamber that's saturated with alcohol vapor so when a cosmic ray or radioactive particle enters the chamber it leaves a trail of mist like when a plane leaves a vapor trail. It does use dry ice and isopropyl alcohol though. It's kind of complicated but would be worth it in the end.


The world (Narnia) is given over to the cold grip of Satan (the White Witch) until the Redeamer (Aslan) comes and destroys the law of sin and death (the Altar Stone). Ref Romans 8:2\nC.S. Lewis tried very hard to incorporate how the the Law of Sin and Death was irrevocable. Edmond was under the sentance of death with the White Witch being his accuser. However, the loophole was written on the altar stone that this Law of Sin and Death can be broken if one without sin would be sacrificed upon it as a substitution. The White Witch, thinking she had a victory, actually fulfilled prophecy and lost her power.\n\nAslan - Yeshua (Jesus)\nThe Kids - Christians\nEdmond - redeamed prideful sinner\nWhite Witch - Satan\nThe Altar - The Law of Sin and Death\nNarnia - The World under the curse of sin\nPeter's sword - The Word of God\nPeter's shield - Faith\n\nBTW - A great movie and fantastic portrayal of the White Witch by Tilda Swinton!

As I recall, when I was a kid (I'm 31 now) we had a civil defense plan in place but it was in the event of a nuclear war. Now that the threat of nuclear war has significantly diminished, I'm guessing the need for Civil Defense faded as well.

It depends on their contract. Most get paid per year but some have longer contracts. So really its all about the contract.


I already know html and some javascript. are there some good sites/books?

Well you always want to start with the basics.  One of my favorite sites is: \n\nhttp://codewalkers.com/tutorials.php?c=5\n\nThey have different sections for beginners and advanced coders. You could also go to www.hotscripts.com and check out their tutorials. Once you have learned the basics you can go online and get pre-written scripts and tear them apart (to see how they work) \n\nThere are some great books out there but the one that got me started and taught me everything I needed to know was (Beginning PHP 5 and MySQL: From Novice to Professional) by (W. J. Gilmore). It provides great examples and walks you through the code step by step.\n\nAlso you may want to check out (Learning PHP 5) by (David Sklar) \n\nIf you want I have provided links to these books as well as some other great sites in the sources below.


I'm interested in buying a graphics card for my PC. This card (GeForce 6500A) is labeled "AGP 8x", but the AGP slot on my motherboard is 1x, 2x and 4x compatible.\nIs there a backward compatibility between 8x and 4x?\nI just found this website (http://www.ertyu.org/~steven_nikkel/agpcompatibility.html )\ngiving explanations on voltage, but no real answer.\n\nThanks.

Sorry to say it won't.  There are some cards that say 8x/4x compatibility, it will work in both, but if the card is only labeled as 8x, it will probably cause problems in a 4x slots, if it will work at all.\n\nThe opposite can usually be done.  If you have an 8x slot, a 4x will most often work just fine.  However, if you have an 8x card, it requires a minimum of an 8x slot.\n\nThe backwards compatibility in this case is higher slot to lower card, not the reverse.


if there was no change in the universe for five minutes would we really know it was only for five minutes

Time is just a concept, it does not really exist. We track time by the movement of celestial objects in the universe and light but time is abstract.

The judge said John Hinckley "is not permitted to leave one or both parents' supervision at any time during the course of the conditional release," unless his hospital prescribes time away. Hinckley has been in treatment at St. Elizabeths Hospital, in Washington, D.C., since being found not guilty by reason of insanity for the 1981 assassination attempt on Reagan.\n\nhttp://www.cnn.com/2005/LAW/12/30/hinckley.home/index.html

why did you ask pretty much the same question twice but just reword it?


I wanna know what the type of music is used for that.  I know artists, and I have music by them and some classify it as progressive house.  But it seems like there's no real genre (it's the same type played at chic clubs as well).  Please be as specific as possible, and provide links to downloadable sets/cds, thanks!

depends on the mood you want. we've done custom remixes on pop/dance such as "switch" or "toxic" - generally something up tempo w/ steady thump


be it physiological or anatomical parameters

Typically, resistance is estimated by challanging test plants with the pathogen under controlled conditions. The particulars will vary according to the host and the pathogen, but the extent of the infection among test plants is key. \n\nAssessments may be done by visual inspection or a more quantifiable measure, like the size of necrotic lesions (e.g. on leaves) or reduction of yield (for agrocultural crops). Ideally pathovars of high and low virulence will be included in the tests to put the wild-type pathogens' virulence into prespective.


I heard that we haven't paid our share since the 2000 election.

The U.S. currently owes approximately $1.3 billion dollars in assessments to the UN.  The U.S. refuses to pay these amounts unless the UN undertakes certain specified reforms.  The last payment was made in December 1999 in the amount of $100 million, the next payment of $582 million cannot be made until the Helms-Biden law controlling UN payments is modified.


John Lennon. The country stopped when he died. Can you say the same about Jimi?


no hard feelings on the math nerd i hoppe\n\nok i have been trying to fig this out i am a smoker they say one cig takes off 7 min of ur life, i have been smoking 14 years and pretty much one pack a day that would be 140 a day, which 2hrs 20 min, so is that 51 100 min a year or hours? and how much time is that in 14 years? i think ifig out 14 1/2 years something like that can u fig this one out, i know i should not be smoking but those of u who are smokers knows its very hard to quit smoking anyways i need someone who can do math really really well, and i know that God only decides when my life ends but in "doctors eyes" i just wanna see how much time of my life i have wasted smoking these stupid cigs, if any doctor reads this then by all means pls answer

Thats going to be 851 hours and 40 minutes (or 51,100 minutes a year) a year exactly.  So, if you smoked for 14 years, that would be 11923 hours and 20 minutes in 14 years.  That equates to 496 days and 19 hours and 20 minutes for the whole 14 years.  496 days is 16 monhts and 16 days 19 hours, and 20 minutes.  This is taken that a month is 30 days.

It seems the most popular theory as to the origin of the known universe is the Big Bang. I am interested to know if there are other theories out there. For example, what about a multiplicity of Big Bangs...?

There have been alternative theories throughout history.  I believe most astronomers now accept the Big Bang theory as best fitting the known facts. Your question about a multiplicity of Big Bangfs is a good one: perhaps the biggest cosmological debate about the nature of the universe is whether the universe will expand forever, or whether it will ultimately contract again into a state similar to just prior to the Big Bang.  Of those who think it will contract, many believe that it then will repeat a Big Bang process, so that the universe will proceed on a Bang, expansion, contraction, Bang  . . . pattern forever.\n\nI've included a link to one website that provides answers to basic astronomical questions, in a range from beginning to more advanced.


I moved in with him about a year ago, I have known and loved him for what seems 4ever. Left my husband of many years to be with him. He is sweet, caring, loving, but failed to mention an ex that is now a part of everyday life. They see each other, talk on the phone, help each other, and she is about the nicest person I've met in years. They both insist it is just a friendship, that they just enjoy similar interests and each others company. They have on many occasions invited me to join them when they get together, he has on many occasions NOT invited me and been gone for hours only to return saying he did nothing wrong, and I shouldn't worry, she's just a friend. I know he is still in love with her, I don't know of her true feelings, or intentions for that matter. She has told me it is important for me and this man to work because she wants him to be happy. He kept the "friendship" secret from me for months saying he was sparing my feelings? I don't know who or what to trust? I lovehim

Wow, tough problem. I think what I'd do is have a heart to heart with the girlfriend. Maybe she really does want him to be happy with you and maybe it's him that's holding out hope for a renewed relationship with her. If that's the case, she'll need to back off, but you need to find out if that's really the way it is or not first. Good luck. I feel for you.


The sea is mostly salt water with suspended organisms and minerals.\n\nUnless the organisms carry a lot of pigments, there will be no specific absorption of colour. Instead, you will have unspecific absorption by particles. In this case, light on the red (low wavelength) side of the spectrum will be absorbed more than light on the blue side.\n\nYou can check this at home: pour a little milk into a glass of water so that it still remains mostly transparent and hold it against a conventional lightbulb. The glass content will appear slightly blueish.\n\nThe amount of absorption is dependent on the thickness of the layer. The more impure water there is, the bluer/blacker it will appear.


there really isn't a lot of trees and wood near Jerusalem...

No. Crosses were pretty crude and were not needed in Nazareth. They were needed in Jerusalem for all to see. Wood was imported from the northern towns as an industry. High quality wood came in from Joppa.\n\nThere was a suggestion that Jesus made yokes for oxen, which would make sense for that near the plains of Meggido.


i know about 400mhz and 500mhz\nis there any thing faster than this

This depends on the Type of RAM.\n\n\nDesktops\n \nEDO and FPM (very old) run at 25/33 Mhz\nSDRAM runs with the system bus at 66/100/133 Mhz\nI don't know about Rambus, but I think it's some 266,333, 400, 500, 667, and 800 Mhz.\nDDR has 266, 333, 400Mhz\nDDR2 has 400, 533, 667, and 800Mhz.\n\n\nNotebooks/laptops\nSODIMM has 100,133,266,and 333Mhz


Well if you have access to the system physically, restart the PC. When grub opens, press 'a', then 'e', then type ' '(Space) and then's'. Press enter. The PC boots in single user mode.  Now just type at the command prompt : passwd and enter new password. Done!\n\nTo prevent other people to change your root password, simply give your boot loader a password. So, from the next time, you will have to know the password of the boot loader to acces the single user mode.\n\nFor detailed information, please refer to the following links:\n\nhttp://aplawrence.com/Linux/lostlinuxpassword.html\nhttp://aplawrence.com/Bofcusm/872.html\nhttp://aplawrence.com/Bofcusm/861.html

had anyone in love with 2 sister at once? \nand both of them ok with it ? \nwhat u think ?

You sound little sick.  What shoould I say?  Incest just sounds good in stories.  Stories even show relationsips with mothers.  but is that pratical? ask yourself.  Lets be humans.  There are many girls out.  Just have a look.


Seems like I have to spell out my requests to my husband but my girlfriends get what I'm saying right away.  Is he trying to be difficult or does he really not understand what I'm saying?

Are you talking about situations where you, your husband, and your girlfriends are all together, with say ... a kidnapper?  And you have to try and tell everyone that, "on the count of three I'll drop this glass of water to create a distraction so you guys can rush the kidnapper and push him out the window!"  Something like that?\n\nOr are you talking about when you mutter something about the dry cleaners and expect your husband to remember back three years ago at the company picnic when he spilled mustard on his pants ... you know, the navy khakis he got at Robinson's when you were shopping for Aunt Kathy's 60th birthday present? ... anyways, when you were waiting at the register to pay you said "people were like trees" ... which was funny because you just spent the weekend in Disneyland where everyone was standing around waiting in lines that never moved and you actually saw a bird land on someone's head and the person didn't even know it ... and you went to Disneyland with Jeff and Sal who next weekend were going on a second honeymoon to Kauai, and how come you've never been on a second honeymoon?  To which your husband says, "what did you say about the dry cleaners?"  And then you roll your eyes and sigh and say, "nothing," and storm off into the kitchen.\n\nYou mean hints like that?

I have both female and male friends I chat to on the various instant messenging clients and thee is nothing I hate more than men who just want to talk about sex, no introductions nothing. My way of thinking is you would not walk up to a lady in the street and say "hey wanna bonk" cause you would get you face slapped......why is there not the same level of manners on the net??

Constantly I feel like I have no dad, even during school...

try talking to him, and just try to assign certain times of the day for studying


I have been trying not to listen to these folks chattering away between my ears, but as of late they are becoming increasingly obscene and downright gory.  They talk of doing horrendous things to all manner of persons and try to get me to go along with their demented plans.  So far, I have been able to resist, but they are getting impatient.  What methods might I use to get rid of these voices?  They are both men and women.  Do I use different methods for the different genders?  Please help!

OMg, You Are Getting Crazy !! Try to think of something else to get thoses voices out of your head. Maybe you should use different thing to get the different genders. Like for example ; Just get one out and then I DONT KNOW !! Now I am Crazy

I'd like to take a ski trip in late December or early-mid January.  Which region has the best snow so far this year?

With the way the jet stream has been, the best option is the old stand bys;  Utah resorts (Alta, Snowbird, Brighton, Solitude, etc...), Mt. Bachleor and Mt. Hood in Oregon are safe bets (colder than Utah).  Also try snow-forecast.com.


MY 3 year old granddaughter is allways saying she see,s ghost,s. Yesterday was her birthday and lastnight while playing in here room she came out and  told her mom there was a ghost in here room and it was grandpa. My granddauter was my father's first greatgrandchild and the day he died 2 years ago he played with her and held her all day. He was very happy with her.

Yes I would believe her. Why would she say that, where could she have gotten that idea to begin with.\n Children especially at that age are very open minded, they are not yet clouded by the beliefs that these things are not possible.\n  I personally believe in ghosts, have seen people I know and those I don't know. \n  Who can rightly say that there is not another plane of existence that unless we open our minds in invisible to us. \n This child is blessed by having her loving grandfather pay visits to her.

What kind of jobs are you applying for? Grads with MIS degree usually are not as competitive as grads with engineering or computer science degrees (not you personally, but the programs themselves). So if you are applyign for developer or programmer positions, it'll be more competitive. \n\nIf you just lack experience, you can try internships or positions in IT departments. Companies like Intel, HP, and other large corporations have large IT departments which will give you exposure to IT-related work. From there, you can pick up experience and also skills for programming/developing if that's your interest.


I don't refer to the actual id card. Why to I need to take a theory and a driving test

Each state's laws and driving restrictions are slightly different (for example, in some states, you may turn right on a red light, while in others this is always forbidden).  Since the rules of driving vary somewhat from state to state, the tests are there to make sure you understand and comply with the requirements of your state.

i would like to know what kind of rope to use, what form i need, basically just how to do it.

In order to lasso you need a stiff rope. you can buy one at you local feed store. sorry but I don't know how to do it but maybe you can ask at the feed store.


I want to buy an Ipod Nano, but I'd like some peoples opinions on them. Are they any good?

It is easy to use (intuitive), has cool features like color screen, games and calendar. The way you operate controls is easy to learn. Once you download songs from a music CD, it searches automatically for the names of the songs, plus it is the most popular gadget amongst teenagers!


I greatly enjoyed the Darkwing Duck animated series back when it aired as part of the Disney Afternoon in the early 1990s.  It had been on ToonDisney for a period of time, but that now seems to be over.  I would love it if Darkwing Duck were released on DVD...who else agrees? :-)

I don't like Darkwing Duck, but I loved Launchpad McQuack.


In the cartoon they do.  I never but two and two together and thought about that.  That is some good insight.


Love is a choice you make.  It's not just those mushy feelings and butterflies in your stomach. It's a conscious decision to love that person in spite of their faults and quirks.  It is unconditional and doesn't change over time.


i have heard a lot about RSS feeds. i want to know in detail about it.

RSS stands for \n\nReally Simple Syndication\n\nThey allow you to subscribe to content on websites for free, and basically whenever you launch your RSS reader it checks for changes and automatically downloads the latest updates. Most of which is text based.\n\nPodcasts can also be subscribed to this way.\n\nOpera has a built in reader for RSS, when you see a small orange icon that says RSS, you can click on it and Opera's RSS reader will show you the RSS news feed content. \n\nRSS reader\nhttp://www.opera.com/switch/


Do you think the US should go to the metric system in the future?\n\nPersonally, I feel it would be too difficult.

Yes. Nearly the entire world and all of the scientific community use the metric system. In order to foster the idea of globalism in the US we should unify our measurements.


i was adtrack to 1 woman who very beautiful, she a nice girl but i dont know to tackel and to take attraction her to me that all

Be gentle, be kind, be very sweet and smile, help her when she needs help. talk to her in loving manners, but dont be too pushy. Dont call her every single day, or follow her around. If she has a good heart, she will notice your kindness... and then its up to God. Good luck.


she is around mid 70's, but can get around without a walker or wheelchair, still has good hearing and eyesight. and can calculate adding/subtracting in head.

Quick test you can do, not scientific but has been shown to detect dementia.  Ask her to name 10 animals in 15 seconds.  Someone with dementia cannot do this task as they forget what they said and start repeating animals!


Christmas Eve we are going to be at my parent's house, Christmas we are going to be at his parent's house. Every year he gets together with his friend, who has no girlfriend or wife, on Christmas.  He just brought this up to me today. I just want to hang out with him and snuggle and enjoy Christmas with him and exchange gifts in private. We have been together for 9 months. What should I say to him? I think that it is time that I am a priority in his life and I hoped that he would want to be with me on Christmas. What should I do?

Tell him that You "just want to hang out with him and snuggle and enjoy Christmas with him and exchange gifts in private" but it is up to him.  You can't force a boyfriend to do something.  you want him to DECIDE for himself that he wants to be with you all day.  Isn't it nicer when the guys WANT to be there ro be with you instead of knowing that really his mind is somewhere else.  Don't hold him back and give the him any ammo that he can throw in your face later.

Why is north up on a map?  Why isn't south?

There is no technical reason, other than consistancy. It was established by the Egyptian astronomer Ptolemy a couple thousand years ago. Probably because the land that was known when the first maps were made were in the North.

Kerala's economy is predominantly agrarian in nature. In terms of per capita income and production Kerala is lagging behind many of the Indian States. But in terms of Human Development Index and life standard of the people, Kerala is much ahead of most other states in India, and, in fact, in certain development indices it is on a par with some of the developed countries.\n\nThis peculiar paradox often termed as the KERALA PHENOMENON or Kerala model of development by experts, which is mainly owing to the performance of the State in the Service Sector.

When I try to make a phone call to the bank or cable company or whatever, I hear an option to press anumber to hear the call in Spanish.  I go to stores, and now some have the signs that tell what is in the aisles in both English and Spanish.  Many jobs require you to speak Spanish in the US to cater to the callers that refuse to learn English.  Why is this one group of people so catered to?  Why aren't there signs and language options in German, Italian, Hungarian, Polish, and every other language?  Why are people from just about evey non-Spanish speaking country expected to learn English if they want to live here, but not the Spanish speaking people?

WELL, EVERY PEOPLE PLANNING TO LIVE HERE, HAS TO HAVE SOME KNOWLEDGE OF THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE, BUT SINCE THE SPANISH SPEAKING POPULATION IN THE US IS GROWING SO FAST, MANY COMPANIES, BUSINESSES ARE CHOOSING SPANISH AS A MAJOR SECOND LANGUAGE IN ORDER TO ENCREASE THEIR SALES...NOW ABOUT THE JOBS...SINCE THIS IS A FAST GROWING POPULATION, MANY BUSINESSES ARE CHOOSING BILINGUAL WORKERS TO ATTRACT MORE SPANISH SPEAKING PEOPLE TO THEIR BUSINESSES. BILINGUAL PERSONNEL IS EQUAL TO 2, THEY CAN COMMUNICATE WITH EITHER ENGLISH/SPANISH CUSTOMERS WITHOUT THE EMPLOYER HAVING TO PAY 2 PERSONS DOING THE SAME JOB. SEE MY RELATED QUESTION ON MY PROFILE


I don't know what it is about her. I just cannot stand her. Anyone else feel the same way. And if ya do.....why?

I find her very annoying.  First there is the whole scandal she was involved in where all she had to do was tell the truth and would not have faced jail time and then there is her temper off camera, sometimes her behavior can be worse than a neanderthal.  But this is coming from stories I have read and seen on the news so I don't know how much weight can be put into it.  All I know is that I don't like her (or Kmart, all the Kmarts where I live went out of business when Target moved in).


I've heard of it, don't know what it is and want a detailed explanation to expand my knowledge.

Equilibrium means that the net force on the system of interest is zero - so that its acceleration is zero. It can move, but only with constant velocity. In addition rotational quilibrium refers to the analogous situation in rotational sense. The net torque on the system is zero and the angular acceleration is zero.


we're relocating next year and we are looking for a place where housing is affordable and with less snow during winter.

6 months ago I moved to Nebraska from California, if you can believe that.\n\nI actually love it here and am SO glad I made the move.  Let me tell you why.\n\nCost of living.  Here you can buy a gorgeous 5-bedroom house, almost a mansion, for under $300K.  In San Diego the same house would cost almost a million dollars.\n\nQuality of life.  In San Diego I was constantly stressed for money and felt like I lived in an over-populated area.  Everywhere you go there are people swarming like bees.  Not so in the Midwest.  Here you can drive down a road or walk through a shopping mall and it just feels right.  Less people, less congestion, less traffic.\n\nDon't think that there is nothing to do out here.  I live in Omaha and it's a HUGE restaurant city.  People here LOVE to eat out and there is a great restaurant on every corner.  And they are affordable!  Music is big in Omaha too.  The local music scene is big and growing.  Lots of great local bands are from here, including The Faint and Cursive.\n\nThings cost less!  I used to spend $2500 a month just to get by in San Diego.  Here my basic bills are under $1600.  My rent in San Diego for a tiny 1 bedroom apartment in a nice area of town was $1400.  Ridiculous!  Here I pay $900 and I live in a 1500 square foot two bedroom condo with garage in the best part of town.\n\nBottom line - I love the Midwest now, and I came from Southern California!  Consider it.

Why do so many people have sex with other people that they have no intention of ever marrying? Why can't any of them just wait on the right person to come along, and then marry that person first like their mom and dad always told them they were supposed to do?

Some people don't hold sex in very high esteem, and think it is just a bit of fun. Why deny yourself a bit of (free!) fun?\nBy the time most people are mature enough to realise how special sex is, it is usually too late.


first i need to say that the cigars are going 70% more after the new year 2007 that means that now one packet of cigars of Victory is costing 1,60 lv (that means around $80) and they will be 2,60 after january 2007 and all my friends (because im from Bulgaria) are saying that this will make them stop the cigars, so the best thing to do is not opening this kind of shop, but if u really want to do so maybe this site will be halpfull: http://www.mi.government.bg/

Unlike many ID VICTIMS I have heard about, I was lucky enough to be online and watch my bank account dwindle and was able to catch the ID THIEF. The problem I seem to be haveing is the "THEFTS" happened in California, yet I live in Colorado. What problems will I have if I prosecute in Colorado compared with California ... compared with a federal case. Many of the law enforcement agencies are not interested in spending a large amount of time since the amount was less than $1,500.00. Any thoughts? Any cases you know of that are similar to this so I can refer a judge to that case?\n\nThanks!

To get the guy off the street is probably not your responsibility, but less within your ability.  If the credit card company has reimbursed you and covered it, it's more up to the company to decide how to proceed.  You should contact your credit card company to follow up and ask what they'll do to press charges against the one who defrauded you, if they know who he is.  It's more up to them to decide at this point, since they hold the information and the control, and since it's mostly in their best interest.  It's kind of you to think of the well-being of others, though, so I'd encourage that line of discussion when talking with the credit card company, and I hope they help.


Do I need to add anything to my tax return, if so what.

if you buy there is nothing to do. If you sell there are tax considerations.  Short term capital gains require that you pay more.  Long term capital gains means you pay less. Hold onto the stocks... Bill Gates will surely pull a rabbit out of his hat for long term profits and productivity. If in doubt consult an American/Canadian tax attorney.


I think my sentiments are evident by the way I ask the question, but really are we becoming so general and trying not to offend anyone that we're at the risk of real expressions and living? I don't celebrate Christmas, but it doesn't offend me in any way... your thoughts?

I am an Atheist and have no problem at all with "Merry Christmas" or "Christmas Tree" or anything simular.  If a store wants to display signs that say Merry Christmas than I think thats great.  If they want to have Happy Holidays instead, I see no problem with that either.\n\nFor me, December 25th is Christmas Day.  Its not Holiday Day or Solstice Day... its Christmas Day.  \nOf course the word Christmas may have more meaning to some people than to others.  I dont celebrate the birth of Christ and most Theists dont either.  Maybe one day we will have an ATHEIST DAY and damn to hell if I would let some Jesus Freak make me change it!


What are your thoughts on new devices / technologies introduced in 2005?

An invention: Cellborg ( http://www.livescience.com/technology/051027_cellborg_sensor.html ) massive potential to become useful in our lifetimes\n\nA discovery: new blackhole ( http://www.space.com/scienceastronomy/050509_blackhole_birth.html ) very little potential to become useful in our lifetimes, but oh so cool\n\nOffbeat: monkeys have accents ( http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20051129/od_afp/japananimalsoffbeat ) it has to do with monkeys and I personally find study language fascinating


my friend wants to know (maybe that friend of mine is me...)

Pick up lines are ridiculous.  Just be yourself


Wait, I think I'm in the process of answering this question for myself.

Well, for it to work properly, you have to ask questions, and they need to be answered. People don't usually ask questions in regular message boards. \nThis is a better place to "just answer the question"
