people are so small minded and they can not see what they do not know...they see God as a man and yet he has no gender. Gender is for reproduction, you idiots.  God had to relate himself to the sexist culture of the times to not disrupt the harmony of the world.  God used the symbol of "Father" because it is most like the relationship with humans since God is the ultimate ruler as a Father is in a family.  We must all respect and listen to the order of the word of God.  If God had spoken as a woman and called himself a mother, the men of the government and church would still feel they are dominant in accordance to the Old Testiment.  I am not a sexist, I just know that women give birth and nurture and teach love.  This is the personal relationship I feel with God.  He is the spirit and Jesus also.  The spirit of God is as a wife to the Father...so there, you see God himself gave us a feminine side to love. Is your Father dominant over the Spirit?  no. This means we are both right.

Who is the Creator \n\n\nBy Dr. Jaafar Shiekh Idris \n\nCan It Be Matter? \n    A very popular question among atheists is, ‘Granted that the existence of temporal things necessitates the existence of an eternal cause, why should that cause be the God of religion? Why can’t matter be eternal and be therefore in no need of an eternal creator?’ I shall argue, on an Islamic basis but at the same time also on a rational basis, that the attribute of eternity entails other attributes, which matter does not and cannot have, and cannot, in view of this, play the role of the original and ultimate cause of temporal things. Muslim theologians say that eternity of existence logically implies everlastingness. This is true because, if something is eternal then it does not depend for its existence on anything outside itself. If this is so then it can never pass away, because only those things pass away that lose some of the external conditions on which they depend for their existence. If the ultimate cause of temporal things is eternal and everlasting, it must of necessity be self-sufficient, qayyoom and ghanee. \n\n    Can there be more than one such creator? The Quran tells us that this is impossible;\n\n“God never had a child, nor have there been any gods beside him. [Had there been any], each of them would have appropriated to himself what he created, and some would have overcome others.” \n\n    This Quranic argument was paraphrased by some Muslims theologians in a way somewhat like the following: The assumption that there are gods beside the one true God leads to false consequences and must therefore be false. If there is more than one god, then (a) if every detail of everything in the world was the result of the action of one of the gods, it cannot at the same time be the result of the action of another god. But if (b) some things in the world were created by some gods, and others by other gods, then each god would rule independently over what he created, which means that nothing in his world can even in principle, be influenced by anything outside it. But this contradicts the observed unity and interdependence of the world. And if that is impossible, then (c) some gods will overcome others, but if that happens then the ones who are vanquished cannot be true gods. There can, therefore, be no more than one creator. \n\n    How does this creator create? Since He is self-sufficient, He cannot be said to depend on anything outside Himself in any actions, and cannot therefore be said to produce His effects the way natural causes do. But if He is not a natural cause, He must be a volitional agent. And since intention implies knowledge, and knowledge and intention imply life, he must be a living being. Since He is an eternal and everlasting being, all His attributes must reflect this quality; thus He must be not only knowing, but all-knowing, not only powerful, but all-powerful, etc. \n\n    Since no matter in any form can answer to these attributes, and since all these attributes are implied by the two attributes of eternity and everlastingness, no form of matter can be either eternal or everlasting, and thus no matter of any form can play the role of that ultimate cause. This much of the attributes that an eternal and everlasting creator must have is enough, I suppose, to show that it cannot be matter. \n\n    But this conclusion can be further confirmed by what modern science tells us about the nature of matter. \n\nWhy Should He Be the God of Islam? \n    Some might say, ‘Granted that this god is a personal and living God, and that He has the attributes which you mentioned, why should He be the God of Islam and not, say the Christian or Jewish God?’ The God of Islam is the God of all true prophets of God from Adam down to Moses, Jesus and Muhammad. But it is a basic claim of the religion with which Muhammad came that previous religions (including Christianity and Judaism) have not been kept in their pristine form which those


Their performance in the Nations cup was dismal and theyve not really got what it takes to compete at that level.

All the african nations recently have made an impact on the world stage - Nigeria, Cameroon and Senegal especially. To be honest I think Togo and Angola might not create too many shocks, they are in tough groups with seasoned campaigners but I would be very wary of the Ivory Coast


I see SOME OF YOU are LISTENING to the Bush/Fox PROPOGANDA, that the Minutemen are "a bunch of vigilantes". JUST BECAUSE our FEDERAL government is a bunch of assholes, who WON"T do their JOB of PROTECTING America!!!!! And WHERE do some of you GET your "information"??? Either you are LYING or you're being LIED TO!! NO ONE has EVER been "shot" by the Minutemen, as SOME OF YOU CLAIM!!! Try reading something OTHER than the LIBERALLY BIASED NEWS!!!  The REASON the Minutemen carry weapons,is because THEY are not STUPID (UNLIKE some of YOU), and they know the border is a DANGEROUS place!! Not ONLY illegals cross into the U.S.,but ALSO drug smugglers!!!! Minutemen have EVERY RIGHT to BE at the border,UNLIKE the ILLEGALS!!AND as for YOU, "MRME", WHAT THE HELL ARE?? A HOMO???  YOU must be,since YOU are ONE who's CONCENTRATING on their BALLS!!!!

That's because there are dumb idiots out there that think the U.S. borders should be open to everyone.  They think that the U.S. has no right to enfore it's borders because it's the land of the Native Americans and the U.S. took it by force.  More liberal bullsh1t.  At least your a conservative so you have a hold on reality.  Many liberals (not all) are screwy in the head.  They don't understand what's good for the country.  But I think most of those crazies make up a small percentage of liberals, not all of them.

In evolution vs creationism, I want to present the other side of creationism, Hinduism.  It has a plethora of small and big miracles like Christianity does, basically to reinforce one’s belief in their god.  It has facts that seem to be backed by science too, which I shall note.  Therefore I think Hinduism should be given a fair and unbiased look at intelligent design.\n\nHinduism supports reincarnation as well as Buddhism. Here's the thing, it has been documented that children have told their parents about stuff they couldn't possablely known that happened in a previous life. There are hundreds of documented recordings that later prove to be true. I concentrate on children cause they are less likely to lie or make stuff up like adults, but also more importantly they haven't learned enough or been around long enough to know what they are saying.

I know that the creationism push is led by the christian movement, and they will bitterly oppose anything but the bible's creation as intelligent design.  Hindu's don't desire science they are much more into thier spiritual development and that is a good thing, but even with all the proof in the world you will never get anyone to acept another's religion.  Therefore keep religion out of the schools


What else do they stand for? Are they capable of progress? They continue to point out "No WMD's have been found" thanks we know. Americans can figure out the obvious. They say "Bush lied", over an over, is that helping Americans? It's not your job to tell Americans if you feel the Pres is good or bad, the media does that. Get some work done already.

Democrats are being stifled by the Bush administration. There's very little we can get done right now. \n\nHowever, to answer your question with another:\n\nBesides bashing Democrats and making the rich richer and the poor poorer, what else have Republicans perfected?


I was brought here by my mother from el salvador.  We were trying to survive from the (guerilleros) bad guys I call them.  My brother was not as lucky as me he was taken.  Even though that I have been here for 22 years my imigration status has not changed.  My sister who also came with me she  is a resident but I am not.  So all this time I have been working in low paying jobs I feel that if I were to be sent back I wouldn't know how to survive in a country I don't even know.  Some poeple here in the states don't realize that sometimes it is not the persons' fault for being here it was a thing of survival.

this country is in hock because of Mr Bush. I dont understand how you can also cut taxes on the rich. CLEARLY TRICKLE DOWN ECON DOES NOT WORK. NEVER HAS NEVER WILL. SO WHY USE IT.

This tax cut is a catch 22. You have to set in a $300,000.00 plus income bracket for this tax cut to do any aid. The tax cut is to save the failing stock market with all of the forced inflation, the higher numbers wont support themselves. The higher stock figures are just inflated to the max, and aren't real. The tax is a capital gains and dividends tax cut, that if your under $300,000.00 and you take the tax break, the tax break it throws you into a backdoor tax called the AMT tax. People wont know this until next year when they file their taxes. This whole thing is another Bush lie, and he is misleading to keep votes again. So as always the tax cut is for the rich, you know like Walmart, and Exxon Mobil of Texas. The whole thing is ridiculous, and that is what Americas forced inflation is all about. We are paying the riches taxes again.

I need to write a book report for school for a book i read but forgot what it was about.

Getting a driver's license is the one thing that would make Remy's and Morgan's lives nearly perfect. And it seems as if it's going to be easy and fun. After all, Mr. Fielding, the Driver's Ed teacher, thinks his course is a joke. With their already licensed friend, Nickie Budie, Remy and Morgan take the stop sign at the corner of Warren and Cherry Roads. When this action has fatal consequences, they are forced to deal with death, guilt, and the responses of their friends and families. Though there are no easy answers to their dilemmas, the teenagers struggle to do the right thing in the face of their crime. This powerful story of a prank gone awry will leave teenagers grappling for solutions to tough issues.

I need to find a good book or web sites that can teach me how to grab data from the internet using VBA coding in Excel. i.g, programming a vba code to go to a web site, grab a specific table  from it automatically and copy it into excel.

wabbitt got it. You can use the refreshable web query to extract data from tables on a webpage. Only tables with a query though.\n\nI managed to extract data from other HTML elements from IE a while back but it's tedious. You need to create an IE object and control it from Excel. IIRC, you use the NavigateURL property of the IE object to go to the correct website. Then you access the individual HTML elements from the page object inside the IE object. However, I was only able to get this to work when the HTML elements were named. I'm not sure how this will work with the new HTML objects now used (flash, ajax, etc.).\n\nMuch easier to stick to tables.

Database: Oracle 9i\nTool: Developer 6i\nOS:  Windows 2000

First of all... EEEK Oracle 9i! Sorry, had to get that out of my system. Anyways, you should first take a look at your indexes. You are not attempting to rebuild indexes and then fetch a particular row ID are you?\n\nAnother thing you might try is dropping the index and recreating it on the table. \n\nLastly, could another session deleted the row before you attempt to delete it? I would strongly look at how you are using indexes and make sure you are not doing something improper just before you attempt to fetch the rowID.\n\nThis error basically is saying that it can't find the row. (Could be changed, reindexed, or simply not there).

Here are some quotes from Early Church fathers, who were convinced Christians/the Church will be persecuted by the Antichrist. Please make your comments! \n\nJustin Martyr (AD 100-168) "Two advents of Christ have been announced: the one, in which He is set forth as suffering, inglorious, dishonored, and crucified; but the other, in which He shall come from heaven with glory, when the man of apostasy, who speaks strange things against the Most High, shall venture to do unlawful deeds on the earth against us the Christians, \n\nTertullian (AD 150-220) that the beast Antichrist, with his false prophet may wage war on the Church of God\n\nHippolytus (AD 160-240) " ... the one thousand two hundred and three score days (the half of the week) during which the tyrant is to reign and persecute the Church \n\nThese early church Fathers/Leaders did not embrace a Pre Trib Rapture doctrine - rather were ready to face persecution and death at the hands of the Antichrist... Comments?

The Post Tribulation Rapture (catching away) is very much what the Bible teaches us. Jesus said AFTER those days of tribulation he would come (See Matthew ch.24).\n\nThe Apostle Paul makes it 100% clear in his letter to the Thessalonians in that the man of Perdition must first be revealed before Jesus comes.., [2 Thessalonians 2:1-12]\n\nAnd in the Book of Revelation is more coverage.\nREVELATION 13:7, tells us that the Antichrist is given power to make war against the saints.\n\nREVELATION chapter 20 verses 4-6 also makes a surprising statement. Read about the resurrection of the dead in verse 5.\n\nThe Book of Daniel also mentions this man of perdition having power to kill the saints.  The Pre-Tribulation Rapture is a work of "wishful thinking" with an assumption that God would pay more favor to the Gentiles over the Jews.\n\nThe Apostle Paul said of good things and bad things have an order - FIRST to the Jews - THEN - to the Gentiles, and not the other way around.\n\nTo say Jesus will come before the Antichrist is calling not just the Apostle Paul a liar (read 2nd Thessalonians.), but calling Christ a liar too (read Matthew ch.24).\n\nSome preacher dude started the pretrib thought and it was the Devil.  Please note that the Bible Says the Antichrist comes first.  MUSLIMS believe their Mahdi will arrive with Jesus in tow to convince Christians that this Mahdi (who is actually the Antichrist) is the true anointed one.\n\nIn light of the Mahdi's coming ahead of Christ - Many PreTrib believers will fall for  this ruse.., as this Mahdi and his false Jesus (false prophet) will explain (twist) the scriptures and quote the Quran to make sense and magically fill in the blanks.\n\nI am firm in my belief that the Pretribulation idea works to the advantage of Islam.  Can you imagine the horrible mistake of falling for the Antichrist's ruse - accepting him as messiah - Then when Jesus comes, to fight against Jesus ignorantly thinking Jesus is the Antichrist!?\n\nThe sad thing is - once anyone accepts the Mahdi, bowing to him and accepting his mark of homage.., its too late. The Bible says there is no forgiveness for blasphemy of the Holy Spirit. Calling Jesus the Antichrist IS Blasphemy of the Holy Spirit -seeing Jesus maintained that His spirit will be sent to us from the father -  The Spirit of Christ is the Holy Ghost.\n\nBut we all have decisions to make. Only the sincere who remain faithful will make it.

If he asks questions about you, there may be a connection there.\nDon't try to rush or force anything. Be yourself, be confident and go forward with your life.\nGood luck!


the back of my legs are so sore i can hardlly walk i never did anything to them could i have blood clots i didnt have any cramps in them either but thats how they feel

if it's both legs that are hurting, it's very unlikely that you have clots.  Some things to look for if you think it is a clot:  are your ankles swollen and/or blue-ish?\nA quick test you can do (have someone help you:  lie down on your back with your knee bent and have someone press your foot towards your shin. if this is painful, a clot is a possibility. this is called a Homan sign.  \n\nalso...how old are you, clotting in the legs is very uncommon in the non-elderly but your risk increases with age.  risk is also increased if you have had clots before or have been on bedrest for some time.\n\nif you do think you have clots, go to the emergency room as they can cause life-threatening problems like pulmonary embolisms.

I have noticed everyone say how come Muslims don't condemn terrorist acts. The fact fo the matter is they did the only thing is there is no central figure such as the Pope that can give a public condemnation. Also Islam is not as commercialized as Christianity so they don't run commercials or crappy movies withh bad acting to get their message across. Islamic charitable groups assisted with the clean and fund raising after 9/11. But now I want to know how come Christians are not called upon to condemn their actions. Why are Christians not condemning the actions in Ireland? Why no condemnation for the massacre of innocent women and children in Lebanon? Why no condemnation of committing the only successful act of Genocide in history against the Native Americans? Why no condemnation of slavery or the crusades or the holocaust? Why no condemnation of the assistance in the genocide between the Hutus and Tutsis? If you all want condemnation you all should do the same.

You're right. I agree with you. Its just the U.S. mentality, man. I mean Communist Russia fell. Then along comes 9-11. The U.S. public at large, and their politicians, needed another scape goat after the Cold War ended. The terrorists supplied the demand, now every body else gets to suffer. When this is over, and in time it WILL wear off (after lots more needless pain and suffering for everyone on the planet), somebody else will do something and the media will jump on that, along with the politicians, and the general public will follow blindly. Which is what the media and leadership wants. It keeps people away from dealing with REAL issues like the environment, health care, the Social Security thing, etc. I don't know who's next, as far as bigoted aim is concerned. But there will always be a scape goat until people face themselves, stop following unfounded hype, and take responsibility for their own actions rather than judging some one else. They don't have to look at themselves while their hating some body else.

THIS IS NOT LEGAL ADVICE.  YOU SHOULD SEEK ADVICE OF COUNSEL WITH KNOWLEDGE OF LOCAL LAWS.\n\nBetter check your loan agreement, promissory note or other debt instrument.  Many companies include in the terms of their debt instruments a right to call the full amount due at any time, at their discretion.  If this clause exists in your debt instrument then they may be within their rights to do so.  If the clause is not in your agreement you may have some ability to fight their claim for immediate full payment. \n\nGood luck!

running out of resources like food and water \nWhat you suggest ?

Nature will take care of that problem.

because i'm mad in love with a girl .... but i dont know how it emerged..... i wanna know the answer ....my friends please help me

Are you an Indian? That you replied to me back, prouding me for reminding to all of you about MaHatma Gandhiji?


You have one mother. Men/women come and go and depending on the time in your life they maybe inappropriate anyway. Dont ever ditch you mother for one who may make you feel good for a few seconds. They might seem like the best thing since sliced bread but they are not worth it. If you are having conflict with your mother over a partner then there is possibly a very good reason - parents do not go through life "blindfolded", so give them some credit and remember who gave birth and/or raised you.


USAF. Why? because we are the best Air Force in the world! We can hit a target as small as your bedroom window with pinpoint accuracy at a moments notice, and we have the firepower to take out very large targets, hardened targets (bunkers), or whole batallions of enemy troops!

from this verse:\n\nQuran ch5\n\n18. And the Jews and the Christians say: "We are the children of Allâh and His loved ones." Say: "Why then does He punish you for your sins?" Nay, you are but human beings, of those He has created, He forgives whom He wills and He punishes whom He wills......"\n\n72. Surely, they have disbelieved who say: "Allâh is 'Isâ (Jesus) son of Maryam (Mary)." But Isâ (Jesus) said: "O Children of Israel! Worship Allâh, my Lord and your Lord." Verily, whosoever sets up partners (in worship) with Allâh, then Allâh has forbidden Paradise to him, and the Fire will be his abode. And for the Zâlimûn (polytheists and wrong-doers) there are no helpers. \n\n\n[73] Surely, disbelievers are those who said: "Allâh is the third of the three (in a Trinity)." But there is no Iilâh (god) (none who has the right to be worshipped) but One Ilâh (God -Allâh). And if they cease not from what they say, verily, a painful torment will befall on the disbelievers among them.

Muslims believe that God is the one, the only, not born o anyone, and nobody born from him.


this is a medical research project question.

like neurofibromoatosis\nyou can say "NF"


Farm raised chickens eat grass, fresh corn and all those goodies they can find while free ranged out in the fields...and I was asking myself... Do those (*plastic) eggs sold at grocery stores have the same nutritional value as the ones farm raised?\n\n*plastic eggs = eggs produced from a chicken that were forced to adulthood in 30 days with the help of commercial feeding products full with vitamins and hormones. Yeahh... like those said "fresh chickens" sold at supermarkets.

My parents raise chickens, so I eat quite a few true free range eggs.  Then sometimes I go to IHOP.  The flavor difference is almost night and day.  The free range eggs have are almost orange with a "thick" yolk. So you can almost see the nutritional difference.\n\nThey almost have 4 times the value of beta carotene, and Omega 3 (the one from fish!!) and almost 1/2 the cholestrol.  However it depends on the farm and how "free range" the chickens actually are.  \n\nAlso if you can get farm fresh eggs, they are "newer" than commercial eggs by days, even weeks.

Maybe it's just me, but when I bought an issue of "Elle" I thought YOWZERS. 10 years ago (yes, I read Elle in my early teens), the same magazine was ranting about what furs are popular for the season. Now they are against global warming and promoting a greener and happy earth that recycles? I'm surprised I didn't see a pin-up of Bush's head that you can use for target practice (pellet guns of course). \n\nSORRY, it just fumes me that this has become such a fashion statement. I was sporting my "Gore won, but who's counting?" button long before this fashion era.\n\nDo you agree or disagree? Why?

It's true that it has come back in style since 9-11. Maybe because celebrities got really involved (if they don't, they're heartless supposedly), so people just followed their idols.\nBut political people are really starting to bug me. I mean, I have my (strong) opinions on certain issues, but they're mine---I don't take them from my relatives or my "idols"---and I don't flaunt them, as is the trend.


I am offered a job at a bigger and well known company, the same position I am doing now with the same salary but without the medical aid. My current job is actually my first, its not a dream job, its a small company and has no challenges and growth. Should I except the job at a bigger company with same salary or should I just stay at my current job untill something better with better income comes along?

If you have inclination to grow and accept challenges , lyou should accept. In the few early years one has to change jobs 3-4 times before finding the right place and room for growth.

i also need the common name, chemical name, and the chemical formula.

Quite a few substances (too many to name) will lower the freezing point of water when it is put into solution.\nSalt (Sodium Chloride, NaCl) is a perfect example.\n\nTo calculate the freezing point depression experienced by the solution from its pure freezing point,\n(delta T) = K_f * m\nwhere (delta T) is the change in the solution's freezing point, K_f is the freezing point depression constant of the substance, and m is the concentration of the solute in terms of molality.\n\nMolality can be calculated as,\nmolality = moles of solute / kg of solvent


please,do not consider the the application of slope and intercept because numerous researchs do not give these two parameters

I think you mean that: Given a figure (function in the form of a curve), and the value of ordinate (y), does a value of abscissa (x) exist corresponding to that y?  \n\nIf the figure is an open curve, like y=x or y=ax^3, the answer is yes.\n\nBut there may be many other cases. For the curve y=x^2, which is a parabola, x may assume any real value; but y is always non-negative.\n\nAgain, x^2+y^2=a^2, is a circle and a closed figure; x can take up values between -a and +a. y also takes values in the same range.\n\nFor this curve, given a value of y, within the admissible range of -a to +a, there are two values of x. \nFor y=+a or y=-a, there will be only one value of x; and for y>a or y<-a, there will be no value of x.\n\nFinally, for periodic curves like y=sin x, for admissible values of y (between -1 and +1) there exist infinitely many values of x.\n\nSo, you see there is not one answer but many depending on the nature of the figure!

Japanese Language have Three Scripts Hiragana Katakana and Kanji,I know hiragana for there own words and grammer and katakana for forigner words and kanji is pectorial langugage use for nouns but why three scripts uses when we can write in only in hiragana ...please clear it in refrence of japanse langugae orgion and Japanese thinking bhind it.....

Japan had no writing system of their own until Buddhist monks introduced them to Chinese kanji around the 6th century. They started borrowing the Chinese characters and slowly adapted the meanings and pronunciations to fit the Japanese language. That's why they have kun-yumi (Japanese readings) and on-yumi (Chinese readings). I believe only men were taught kanji at first, since they believed it was too complicated for women to learn. It was considered very masculine.\n\nHiragana evolved from kanji, as kind of a cursive shorthand that was considered ok for women to use. (The first Japanese novels were written in hiragana, by court women.) Men rarely used hiragana because they said it was a woman's style. They were mainly used for writing particles and words that had no kanji representation along with the kanji. And as you know, it's now used for native Japanese words as well.\n\nKatakana is basically an even more shorthand version of hiragana. Since it's not curvy, it's very easy to write quickly. I think scholars developed it for that reason. Now it's mainly used to emphasize certain words, and to show foreign origin and also to write onomatopoeia.  \n\nA lot of people think kanji should be done away with because it's so hard, but that would cause a lot of comprehension problems since so many words are pronounced the same but have different kanji. It would actually make the language even more difficult to read.\n\nI hope that helps.\n\n\n\n\n(Next time, you should categorize questions like this under Society & Culture > Languages.)


I know it lead to rise in Inflation but i never got a satisfactory answer.Can some explain via example

Make it really simple, like a group of 10 people wanting to buy a piece of food. If one person had ten units of currency and the others had one each, then that person could outbid the others for the food (say by bidding 2 units).  But if the other nine went and printed themselves another nine units each, then if they all still wanted it, they'd have to bid all their units for it and more.\nTherefore, the price of the food would go up enormously. Then the people's wages would have to increase, too, or very soon they wouldn't be able to afford any more. Etc.\nI suppose, also, the wealthiest people would have access to the printing of the money units, so they'd make sure they still printed themselves more than anyone else, or they'd have already invested their initial income in things like property to ensure they were never as equal as others.\nIt's a shame, though. Capitalism is appalling. Hopefully someone will work out some other way that equalises people more fairly. One day...

Hey, here is a good start.  This should be a lot of help to you.


My Mum's been battling with cancer for a couple of years, and has had plenty of chemo and three surgeries but it's continued to spread. She's been open to alternatives the whole time too, and has worked with healers, meditated a lot, sticks to organics, and taken a few supplements.\n\nI'm in Hong Kong right now, on my way back from London to NZ to see her as things aren't going so well. The conventional docs have run out of answers.\n\nDoes anyone have any positive experience or advice on potential alternative therapies? I've heard things about Oxy-plus (which I have bought her in the past), caesium, Ambrotose and wheat grass. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.\n\nTa,\n\nScott

I have researched something called DMSO. My grandmother has cancer also, and she is not doing very well, but at this point she won't take DMSO, she is stubborn. Please research it and get her to try it. I really believe it will help!!

Iam always told this and there is something happening in my life right now that makes me confused about this saying

we were born with will.  the will to do whatever comes into our minds.  when we choose to do something, that choice is accompanied by consequences - good or bad.  If the choices you've made are resulting in negative consequences - simply choose again, but choose differently.  The reason things happen is because you consciously, or subconsciously, do things to make them happen.

Taste is so bad as times that it makes you sick to your stomach at times. Taste comes and goes and usually last for about 2 weeks. Taste like pepper and this is odd but the tip of the tongue is basically where the taste is and it has a odd sensation. It is very hard to describe but very frustrating to deal with, and can't find anyone that can help with the problem not dentist or family doctor, but this can not be right it has to be something. Please if anyone can help please advise.

Is there something that you are eating consistently that correlates to this? \n\nI sometimes have a metallic taste in my mouth.\n\nDr. Weil says:\n\n I have a weird metallic taste in my mouth that won't go away. Should I be worried?\n\n \n Probably not. Some antibiotics and drugs, such as those for high blood pressure, rheumatoid arthritis, kidney stones, or depression, can cause odd tastes. If you're not taking medications for conditions like these and if you haven't had a thorough general checkup recently, see your doctor to rule out any undiagnosed health problems. Sometimes the flu, heartburn, or very rarely, lead poisoning, can cause the odd taste.\n\nIf your doc finds nothing amiss, try your dentist. She'll look for gum disease and will probably check out any existing dental work; as fillings age, they can sometimes break down and alter taste. If those causes aren't to blame, pay extra attention to your oral hygiene. Be sure to brush your teeth carefully at least twice a day and use a tongue scraper to remove the bacteria and debris that can collect on your tongue, which could create off tastes in your mouth.\n\nIn addition, not drinking enough water can contribute to problems with taste. Up your intake and see if that helps. You don't have to drink the recommended eight 8-ounce glasses of water a day; my rule of thumb is to drink as much of that amount as you comfortably can--and more than you think you need.\n\nIf you rule out all of these possible causes and still have the taste, it might be worth consulting a practitioner of traditional Chinese medicine. He would view the metallic taste as a sign of an imbalance in your system, such as too much stress, too little sleep or exercise, or a bad diet, which he might treat with a combination of acupuncture, Chinese herbs, dietary changes, and other traditional therapies. Find a qualified practitioner through the American Academy of Medical Acupuncture.


Write the symbol for the atom or ion that has 9 protons, 9 neutrons and 9 electrons. Enter your answer with the mass number followed by the symbol of the element followed by any charge on the ion.

18F\nFluorin has 9 protons(9+)and 9 electrons(9-).Therefore,there'll be no charge since positive charges from 9 protons were neutralize by negative charges of 9 electrons.+9-9=0..It is known as atom because it doesn't carry any charge.If it is ion,the amount of electron will more than proton,or the other way round.\n\nHope this will help!!=)All the best!!


I would like to know what is the current research (completed or in progress) in sound & acoustics technology, I would like to be able to view the list of papers/PH.D theses or research papers (those that are publicly viewable) and related products emailed to me.

Take the initiative and try to get her involved with you.  Ask her if the two of you can go out to lunch together, or if she will go bowling with you.  Do stuff like that regularly.  When you have problems, talk with her about it, instead of your friends, etc.  Have a good relationship is a two way street- once you have initiated it a few times, maybe she'll start plannign more stuff like that without any prodding.


Tell her you'll see her later tonight. IDK, it's not that big a deal. Unless she's super-controlling or something. Don't sweat the small stuff, buddy.

Ok, during the last football [soccer] World cup I supported France (I'm British} and this year I'm going to do the same. \n\nBut why can't I put up a French flag in my apartment window or on my car without fear of my window being smashed or my car being scratched. I was warned this could happen.\n\nI'm not supporting France to be antagonistic.. I just love France - the country, the people,the language.. and before anyone asks.. yes I do plan to move there after my studies are over...\n\nShould I chance the flag thing or not?

dont do it its not save. people will actually do hateful things. even wearing a jersey could get you beat up. there are many stupid people waiting for someone to do something like that to start chaos and blame it on the whole world cup thing

we have been there 2003 and the news reports get more and more dismal, should we really be wasting our resources on folks that do not want the assitance of the US?

Why doesnt the government care?  I  am a patriotic person but I do not agree on wasting lives and money we need at home in a fight we are obviously loosing.

Who do ya'll think should win America' Next Top Model and why?

Even though I'm rooting for Danielle, I think Joanie will win by a process of elimination.

Second, Jade is not approachable at all so no one would want to work with her and she would make an awful spokesmodel.\n\nBut, we'll see tonight, won't we?


My male friend has had a reoccuring ingrown hair in the same spot on his neck for years. It tends to return every 5 months or so.

Reasons:\n First I think so he in most wars made and remained as neutral.\n \n Second they tried to solved their problems peacefully. \n\n Third they want other people to immigrate from their respective nations.  \n \n     Which Answer is the best. \n\n  Please Choose ....

Your hypothesis is plausible, but consider this.  They are a nation of 1.5 billion consumers that gives them some degree of power.  They have the potential of having the world's largest army.  Finally, the communist government is allowing free enterprise in the southern provinces.\n\nAs far as solving their problems peacefully, they have had a civil war since the cultural revolution.  Your research should have clued you in one the ethnic cleansing during the reign of Moa Tse Tung.  Regarding wanting people to immigrate.  If that is true, why do they have the one child mandate?  Is not overcrowding a major problem there?

Also, aggressive treatment with statin drugs with an appropriate diet have been proven to halt the progression of atherosclerosis.


people of all cultures ? I think it's a great project

I think its great that people from all over the world can come together for the common cause of asking and answering questions. Ofcourse one can use a search engine and pull results from there, but it's feels better knowing some one took there time to answer my question. Also feels good when your answer is chosen as the best. In my job I have to research, and answer questions, and yahoo answers keeps me ready for the challenge.


i finished my pg in computer,i want to change my career so i choose my career in hospitality&tourism management pls tell the job opportunity in this field

what steps or measures are hospitals giving employees to use or suggest that they use to avoid terrisom

I didn't know terrorism in the hospital was a problem. Certainly the should avoid the female staff during menstruation.

Its played with a trumped to an adventure type of tune and at the end of each line they yell ENGLAND! They also hum the tune as the trumpet plays! England have cool soccer chants!\nIf you could find a audio that would be great! sorry about the lack of information.

the england soccer chant from 1998 originated from a musical group of sheffield wednesday supporters,who attended all  the england matches,and become the official england supporters musical band.they adopted the theme tune from the great escape movie,as their signature song,with the addition of a chanted engaland at the end of the song.the band also travelled to the 2002 world cup and the great escape theme is still a popular chant.


I wish we could do something.  The only thing I can think of is to get rid of W and quit being bullies in the Mid East.  I wish we had a way of organizing something nationally to protest this crap.


It was in a parking lot for a resturant, it was sectioned off by a Boulevard that was rocks.(there was more them one resturant for the parking lot)  The parking lot was not sweept and some of the rocks were scattered around.  With my luck as i walked off the curb, i Dislocated what was first though to be my ankle, but turned out to be the bones underneth my ankle joint. ive spent the last month in and out of the hospital.  There is a chance that i will need corrective surgery.  \n\nIs there anything i can do?  Or am i just poop out of luck.\n\nHappened April 1 2006.........

Well, maybe you could sue for negligence or something, but it might be a stretch to sue for having rocks in the parking lot...


I gave her Four-Leaf Clover just to make her SMILE after failing her test AND TOOK ME A WEEK to find.While she was gone,i took notes for her in math class and inside the notebook i put a four leaf clover to make her suprise and feel happy.For her birthday,i gave her this letter with watch and perfume.i gave her teddy bear,CD,Food.when i give her present,i always suprise her with certain things and she loves that.i bought her ice pack becuase she said her ankle hurts everytime when she runs.when she have math question i always help her even if i have alot of homework.we used to walk to school together.i also have been a good listener.for example,when her grandmother was about to die,she called me and i have been a good listener saying ur grandma's gonna be fine and when her dad cheated on her mom.i listen to her gave her couragement.show her love and care for that person.this girl brokeup with me.do u think she will comeback and do u think she will miss me?and she DOESNT TALK to me why?

YOU sound nice. She sounds kinda mean (sorry) but it seems to me like she's using you.. and that you keep buying her presents and she justs takes them without doing anything for you... i can't see what YOU'RE getting from this relationship, but i don't really understand whY you want her back...


I am a 52, married 32 years. 3 years ago a man walked in to my life. He is 59 married too. I see him almost on a daily basis through my work. We spend a lot of time together but we have never been alone together, never said we love each other. He knows how I feel without me saying it. We have never even touched each other or kissed or talked about it. It's like some unspoken thing we have going on. It's the worst kept secret around my work place (& his too from what I understand). Everyone else seems to be able to see that we love each other. He phones me, always with a legitimate excuse but he tells me about his day. When he comes to see me (he is a tech who services machines I run) we exchange looks and small talk & body language. It's driving me crazy. I am afraid that if I say something he will push me away. It has taken 3 years just to get this close to him. He used to have a wall around him but that is completely gone now. He is Russian. Can that be the reason? Help, anybody?


I was watching on tv and this girl said when she wore her hair down her mom got mad because it is disrepectful and it cheapened her beauty.

The movie probably took place in some Muslim country. However, there are some religions, in which the extremely devout ones among them prohibit females to wear they're hair down, because they feel it attracts too much attention to the girl and infringes upon the rules of modesty.

I will never forget a debate on "Talk of The nation" on which party was a better friend to Isreal. They were so emotional and shouting at each other trying to be the champion of Brown nosing to the Isrealis.

As an American, I've never really understood why we kiss Israel's *ss, either. I doubt it's fear, since we're the ones who have been giving them weapons for decades.\n\nI say cut 'em loose. If that land really should be theirs, let them try to keep it by themselves.


please check this web site http://www.wedgallery.com  and please advice how much I should charge for this service. It will include my design of their choice, domain name of their choice & web hosting 500MB and 5GB traffic. I was thinking something like $39.99 for one year or $49.99 for two years. Is it too much ? or should I charge more ? please advice but only honestly.. this is not and advertisement, just looking for some estimates. Thanks

Look at what other providers can supply.  Are you going to hve guaranteed server up time?  What about back-ups of the data should a server go down or the data is lost?  If you are offering a special service for weddings you have to make sure it is perfect - this is a special day for people and if you mess it up you will not get much business.  Get it right and you will get lots.  Price in itself isn't normally an issue, it's value for money.  If you provide excellent quality and services, you can charge more.\n\nHope that helps

"The State Department is sending an icy blast to our northern neighbors, blaming Canada's liberal immigration and asylum policies for allowing terrorists to set up anti-U.S. operations north of the border.\n\nThe State Department says in its annual report on global terrorism that Canada is becoming a haven for terrorists. "Terrorists have capitalized on liberal Canadian immigration and asylum policies to enjoy safe haven, raise funds, arrange logistical support and plan terrorist attacks," the report says."\n\nI am glad we are securing the southern border, but don't want to lose sight of the north!  What do you think?

We have to secure both of our borders and do a better job with human intelligence in both Canada and Mexico. It isn't enough to improve our control of access -- some will invariably get through. We also have to know who is trying and for what purpose. For that, we need more effective human intelligence.


Robin must be his middle name..so what is the last?

Though the character himself never had another name, he was based upon a real person:\n\n"He was based upon the author A. A. Milne's own son, Christopher Robin Milne, who in later life became unhappy with the use of his name, writing in one of a series of autobiographical works: 'It seemed to me almost that my father had got where he was by climbing on my infant shoulders, that he had filched from me my good name and left me nothing but empty fame.' "


Was it because Hitler had already killed 15-20 million Eureans or was it because he declared war on us on Dec, 10, 1942.\n\nIt seems like a strange coincidence that we happen to declare war on him the day after he declared war on us.

It was already decided to fight the war......how long can americans simply sit back supplying weapons to the allies and watch the war....so they decided tat it was time to show their power....also soviet union was rising in power and they had to control the spread of communism....


This tears my heart apart.  He used to build model airplanes and be an avid reader.  He can't hold anything anymore ...not even my hand.  He's tried meds from doctors and glucosomine and every ointment I can buy at the store,  but nothing works.  I wish I could give him my hands.  Does anyone know of something that would help? Please!  Thank you.

You might try Xango mangosteen juice. I know of several people with terrible deformed hands that ache with pain who have tried the juice and love it. My friend Dee said the pain was gone after taking 2 ounces three times a day before meals. That was after taking about 1 and a half bottles. Unfortunately, when she stopped drinking the juice her pain returned. She says she will drink it forever!


like if a state dont pass the seatbelt law, they will withhold federal funds from the states transportation dept. & ect....

Given that the federal government has very limited enumerated powers, it's ability to withhold (or offer) federal funds as the carrot/stick to get states to do things is one of the few ways that they can affect local laws.\n\nPersonally, I think the federal government should be absolutely minimalist, just enough to support the military (for national defense, not nation building) and  ensure that the federal courts and the interstate roads remain functional.\n\nAh, the good old days, when "necessary and proper" really meant it.


Im in softball, and i have 2 best friends on my team, we all are in the out field and Kayla,(one of the 3) is always talking to me and i tell her to stop so we wont get into trouble. I found out that Danas(the other one)mom called our coach to see if Dana was paying attention in soft ball. He said that we have been fooling around, not paying attention and yeah. Kayla is sometimes the trouble maker and she needs to stop. And out of the 3 of us, im always the good one, not getting into trouble, always paying attention and many other things....so who do u think is the mostly one that doesnt pay attention in softball?

That's probably why they put you guys in the outfield if you guys pay attention maybe you could get a better position or maybe you all should find a sport that interests you more.

My boyfriend of three years called me today and told me he was coming to my house. I live about five or  six minutes away so it wont be such a  problem. Well... he never came. I get so mad at him and I call him and he says he fell asleep. See, i can forgive him once, but he's donce this many times and sometimes I feel like i'm getting pushed over and I dont like that so I comfront him and I get real bitchy.I know he loves me because he wouldnt do some of the things he does for me, but I think he's lazy or soemthing.  IN, the end end, I end up being the bad one because I'll end up mad or I hang up the phone on him. What should I do to teach him a lesson on not to keep me waiting.

in my opinion people never change. accept him or get another boyfriend.


"When you meet the unbelievers in jihad, chop off their heads. And when you have brought them low, bind your prisoners rigorously. Then set them free or take ransom from them until the war is ended." (Sura 47.4)

Some will tell you that is for time of war. Problem is, when is it war, and when is it not? Muslims think anyone who dont belive in "Allaah" then they are at constant war.\n\nSome will say No, but the book teaches that. So, either they are lying, or ignorant to what their book says.


Okay, what's your favorite temple?  Mine's the San Antonio, Texas Temple.

The Preston Temple because it's where I received my endowment. Or perhaps the London Temple because it's where I'm getting sealed to my husband in three months' time. But for sheer spectacular beauty you can't beat the San Diego Temple. I'd already been in Salt Lake, Manti, Arizona and St. George when I went there, and it still took my breath away.


I dont really like doing the typical jobs, you know, restaurants, babysitting, etc etc (you get the point). I would like to multiwork, but work in jobs that are like weird but fun at the same time. You know, something that is not typical, but at the same time gets money. Have any idea?

A friend of mine just got a job at a zoo, walking around helping people and answering questions. It's great because she loves animals and loves talking to people.\n\nThink about what you like to do. Not EVERYONE can be hired to test new video games, but thinking about it may lead you on the path to something fun that actually pays.\n\nBest of success.

there are 3 antivirus, 3 music engines, yahoo messenger and msn messenger!!! with all those it takes forever to load the internet when im in a hurry

First of all there is no use of having 3 antivirus softwares on a single computer. all of them take load of system and makes the computer work slow than ever.\n\nso first chose the best antivirus you have and uninstall rest of two. then Left-Click on the Run and type msconfig\n\nthis will lauch a utility "System Configuration Utility".\nOn the General Page that is the first one. Uncheck the Load Startup Items.\n\nBy doing this no program will load in startup even Msn Messenger you have to open it by your self.\n\nOr go to the startup tab/page and choose the program you dont want to load in the startup and uncheck it. Since it is hard to know which program is good or bad for system. It is better you Uncheck the Load Startup Items on the first Page.\n\nFollow the above and Enjoy the Internet.\n\nSee u later\n\nFazeel Amjad

Graduated from Lewis County High School in 1983


Can't get the job and can't get the girl and can't make money so they just disappear.

Hey guys,\n\nI read your comments and agree with most of them, however, since I found this question under the “POLITICS & GOVERNMENT >> IMMIGRATION”, I figured I would stay on subject. \n\nThis is concerning. If history repeats itself (as it usually does) “The Media” can shape norms that provide a strong reaction from the general public, that can eventually motivate many forms of extermination. It can be dangerous when the role of the media is transformed from a neutral purveyor of fact, to a corporate sponsored monster that satisfies the psychotic and pathological appetites of the masses. \n\nThe basis for freedom of press is to PREVENT governments from regulating fact, to impose politically motivated information to the general public, and/or punishing those who surpass those imposed regulations. Disestablishing freedom of thought (via any media type) is the intention of manipulating the media. In today’s news, we are now seeing major corporations taking control of media sources and creating their own precepts and opinions on global and local issues (and yes even personal appearances as stated above). It’s becoming severe.\n\nSo with the oxymoron of freedom of press that we have in this country (and most others) the responsibility falls on the people to sift through the information provided and expose these tendencies. It is OUR responsibility to prevent these influences on the media that can lead to bogus information on very important matters like……Immigration Reform and the present situation our country is facing with the Mexican border. I doubt we will ever know the real issues by watching just the news. We can however guarantee the opinions we have are based upon what CNN or MSNBC has stated as fact.\n\nI suggest reading newspaper articles from other countries on these issues, and using the internet to understand Immigration Law and the legal ramifications of building an  armed wall to keep them out (or if you really think about it.......keep us in!) \n\nBe good guys.\nIt was nice talking with ya.\n\nThanks,\nAndre M


ok i was just wondering...how many laker players are gonna go watch the game when the suns have to go back to the staples center to play the clippers...oh did i say play? i meant when the suns go there to beat the clippers..why will any lakers go there to watch?..and will they say anything to the suns players...best answer and explanation gets the 10 points

I am a Lakers fan. I won't be going to the game but I will watch the Suns beat the Clippers. I want to see them win it all. Since the Lakers are out I guess the next best is the Suns.


Can anyone tell me  what  minimum wage is right now??

Asked off the bat abourt minimum wage the average joe would most definitely be in support of rasing the thing out the waaaaaaaazzzzzoooooo. When one really thinks about rasing the minimum wage in each city we realize that not everyone will directly benefit from a raise. For instance, a recent study shows that most individuals that take a minimum wage job move up in pay to a position  that is above both the state and the federal minimum wage within three months. If one was to raise the federal minimum wage I believe that it would cause an overall pay raise, thus having no affect at all because of the raise in living that would quickly follow. Although this hypothisies hasn’t been proven due to a lack of searching skills, I have found that some others will side with me on this belief. \n\nAnother issue that is along the lines of minimum wage,and is just as promonent, is a term called living wage.  Although there isn’t exactly a  set figure on what a living wage is, a general definition for some one living in Vermont  would be that minimum wage is a salary that a single individual or family can live off of with 5% left over for spending. Its clearly a serious issue. Companies see more and more young, unexperienced individuals entering their businesses, and there for it is easier for them to keep their wages a level that is very low.\n\nI believe that it is very important for one to keep in mind the type of work that is under the minimum wage blanket. Typically the individual that is being paid minimum wage is doing all of the difficult jobs. Many of the individuals that work as cashiers for example are often required to stand in one posistion for hours at a time. Although the work isnt as phsycially  demanding as general labor, many workers suffer from a wide variety of physcial aliments.\n\nSo, from the limited amount of information that Im going to bother to provide you with, one becomes rather lazy in 90’ weather, you should be able to make your own decision on where you stand on the minimum wage issue. I for one believe that we should evaluate each situation on an individual basis and go from there. What do you think?  To get back to your question the federal minimum wage is $5.75 and Vermont’s is $ 7.25


No one is Answering my questions!!!!!! will you? the rest of mine.

I am answering this one but if u have more if u would have listed them i would have answered those too. Have a great day!

Please cite ur resource of which you found the answer along with your answer. Also, its ok if you just answer one of the questions.

Our best estimate is that 383,000, or 42 percent, of births to immigrants are to illegal alien mothers. Thus births to illegals now account for nearly 1 out of every 10 births in the United States.\n\nThe National Research Council has estimated that the net fiscal cost of immigration ranges from $11 billion to $22 billion per year, with most government expenditures on immigrants coming from state and local coffers, while most taxes paid by immigrants go to the federal treasury. The net deficit is caused by a low level of tax payments by immigrants, because they are disproportionately low-skilled and thus earn low wages, and a higher rate of consumption of government services, both because of their relative poverty and their higher fertility. \n\nThis is especially true of illegal immigration. Even though illegal aliens make little use of welfare, from which they are generally barred, the costs of illegal immigration in terms of government expenditures for education, criminal justice, and emergency medical care are significant. California has estimated that the net cost to the state of providing government services to illegal immigrants approached $3 billion during a single fiscal year. The fact that states must bear the cost of federal failure turns illegal immigration, in effect, into one of the largest unfunded federal mandates.

10 points to the first person for relating his/her life or work to their research contributions.

Martin Gardner, for many years the recreational maths columnist in Scientific American magazine,\n\nHe was a great populariser. A puzzle he set interested me so much that it prompted me to discover the trinary tree of Pythagorean Triples, some ten years ago, in order to solve the problem.\n\nThe problem was, there is a right-angled field with one side 48, there are ten different integer solutions, what are they?\n\nThe first 8 are fairly easy being multiples of \n\n(3, 4, 5) (yields two solutions: 12 x the 4 and 16 times the 3)  \n(5, 12, 13) x 4\n(7, 24, 25) x 2 \n(8, 15, 17) x 6\n(12, 35, 37) x 4\n(16, 63, 65) x 3\n(24, 143, 145) x 2\n\nThe ninth solution is further down that series and is a primitive triple\n(48, 575, 577)\n\nBut the tenth eluded me. I therefore started to research the topic. I reasoned there might be a clue in the intervals between the 3 numbers in a triple. I took the triple (5, 12, 13) and wrote it as\n\n(-12) ^2 + (-5) ^2 = 13^2 and wondered if there was another triple with intervals 7 18 and 25 that wouid be three positive numbers if I solved the quadratic equation created by putting x, x+7, and x+25 into Pythagoras' Theorem:\n\nx^2 + x^2 + 14x + 49 = x^2 + 50x + 625\nSimplifying\nx^2 - 36x - 576 = 0\n(x - 48) (x + 12) = 0\n\nSo one triple is (48, 55, 73) and the other is (-12, -5, 13) which is what we started from.\n\nThe triple (48, 55, 73) gave me the tenth solution to Gardner's problem but also a method of generating all possible primitive triples from (3, 4, 5).\n\nBy writing 5, 12, 13 as\n(-5)^2 + 12^2 = 13^2, a similar search for a triple with intervals 17, 1, 18 leads to seeking a triple (x, x+17, x+18) and the quadratic equation\n\nx^2 + x^2 + 34x + 289 = x^2 + 36x + 324\nx^2 - 2x - 35 = 0\n(x -7) (x + 5) = 0\nwith triples (7, 24, 25) and (-5, 12, 13) with which we started\n\nSimilarly \nBy writing 5, 12, 13 as\n(-12)^2 + 5^2 = 13^2, a similar search for a triple with intervals 17, 8, 25 leads to seeking a triple (x, x+17, x+25) and the quadratic equation\n\nx^2 + x^2 + 34x + 289 = x^2 + 50x + 625\nx^2 - 16x - 336 = 0\n(x - 28) (x + 12) = 0\nwith triples (28, 45, 53) and (-12, 5, 13) with which we \n\nThese three techniques generate three new triples, from any triple and can be expressed as matrices e.g. \n\n(2 1 2\n 1 2 2    X (5, 12, 13) = (48, 55, 73)\n 2 2 3)

holding each other round the waist so the opponents can't get thru to the ball, and they do this for the full 90 minutes?\n\nWouldn't that be ok?

There is a rule against not playing the ball. If one player does not intend to play the ball, he will be booked with a yellow card. \n\nMultiple players can receive a yellow card at the same time. \n\nIt would not be a good strategy.


If you are inside a car.\nI've heard plenty of times you won't because the tires are made of rubber and rubber doesn't conduct electricity, but I've also heard that you might, and I've seen it on TV, I'm still very confused though. Because you are not directly standing in the tires, you can have I dont know your watch and the lightning can go there, I'm making all that up, any help?

The tires have nothing to do with it, between the dirt and moisture on the outside of the tires and the metal belting inside the tires, the rubber won't insulate you.  However, since the frame of the car is metal and forms an unbroken 'cage' of sorts around you, most likely the electricity will flow through the metal around you and into the ground.  This assumes that the doors are shut and you don't touch the metal parts of the frame that you can reach from inside the car.  Then again, lightning is unpredictable and often behaves strangely, so almost anything is possible.

I filed for divorce when my husband cheated on me, by filing for divorce he will lose his residency and work authorization in the US, and be out the money we paid the government and lawyer to file all this paperwork,would you still love someone knowing that you would lose all that. I still love him, but would never remarry him, even if I did he would have to start the whole process all over again.  Why would he still love me, cosidering the fact the whole time we were married he never said it to me.

Remember the saying, "You don't know what you have until it's gone"?\n\nWell, when you were with him, he took you for granted.\nAnd now that you're gone, he knows how important and valuable you really are.\n\nHis lost, not yours.\n\n\nIf you go back with him, look up this word,\nRecividism...


For example, I now living in Germany (for a short time) and the the people living here get 40 days off a year.  That is starting out! And if they work extra hours they get this time as well.  There is a cap on this extra time, I think like 40 hours.  Which will give you an extra 5 days.  And if that was not enough they also have just as many national holidays a year as the US (like 10) We like to talk about how important family is..is'nt time with your family the most important thing????

The Europeans have it right.  That's how I wish work could be in the U.S.  Unfortunately, the US is driven by greed, which translates into longer work hours for more money so we can buy more toys that really don't make us happier.  Time with family is indeed the most important thing, but in the U.S. most businesses don't believe that. The most important thing is money and if that means driving your workers to death through overwork, that's okay.
