Kentucky does not have a lot of job opportunities, the weather is unpredictable (and freaking cold in winter,) the people are scroungy, impolite, and unfriendly, certain parts of the state look like they've never been cleaned up. Heck, Frankfort, the state capital, looks like a dump. Also, here, it's not what you know, who you are, or what you've done, it's who you already know and are related to!\n\nKentucky has "It's that friendly" on their license plates, but it's a hoax! (I currently live b/t Louisville and Lexington, pretty far upstate and less than 90 min. from Ohio and Indiana.)\n\nI love Texas, Mississippi, Alabama, Tennessee. I've been through Georgia, Arkansas, and Louisiana, and hear they are nice. I've never been to California, Seattle, or Arizona, but those places also intrigue me. I'd prefer to stay away from Ohio, Indiana, Michigan, and the northeast.

Kentucky really doesn't have a lot to brag about.  Take it from me, I lived there.  I didn't like anything about it--the job market, the climate, even the women.\n\nTexas and Alabama, on the other hand, do better in these three categories, and I love both of those states.  I would also suggest looking into Seattle or Portland.  Both cities are park-like, fun-filled, and just so beautiful.  Stay away from California; one useful saying I heard in Kentucky is that California is full of "steers and queers." Seriously, though, it is polluted, very fast-paced, and mean, and I don't recommend it.


I was wondering what you think about the drinking laws being 21 in the USA? You can not buy or drink till you 21, but you can fight for your country and die at age 18. Do you agree there is something wrong with this?

I feel like as long as you are responsible you should be able to drink. You made a good point. It's all screwed up!!


I admire your goal, lol. The hair CUT does but his hair is lighter, sorry all in all no. It would help if we could get some star wars stuff on here... hey maybe ill make one to look like padme or leia, lol. No wait maybe Chewwie!


No I am not pregnant and I have had an hystertomy when I was 21 I am 26 now. I am also not drinking alot of caffine anybody have any anwsers. Please no stupid anwsers!!

Please see your doctor.  He can find out what the problem is.  Your breasts should not be that sensitive that you can't stand clothing.


okay i was seein this guy who was married he told me he wasnt but had a little gurl..Well his wife came back and talked 2 me as him..Well he left her 2 be with me because she kept runnin her mouth and threatning him..Okay well what should i do because hes coming down here this weekend to be with me because this is when hes leavin her what should i do someone plz help me..WHen i went up there 2 visit while she was away his daughter kept callin me mommy and was huggin me what does that mean?

well i think you need to put this to an end now because he is a married man i realize that their marriage is probably on the rocks but if he truly cares for you he will divorce his wife first and if you have respect for yourself you will not let this happen it will just end up in heartace and a mess for everyone in the long run.hun you dont want to get involved in there relationship well you already are and he lyed to you and said he wasnt married what a dog and what about that little girl she seems very confused if she is calling you mommie it isnt fair to the little girl and the wife even though she might be a bitch but he obviously isnt any better he is a lyer so just be careful and do the right thing

Christ said that the true faith would be taken away from the chosen nation and given to the Gentiles because they did not recognize him when he came amoungst them.  Do you suppose that when someone looses their faith, someone else gains it?

I believe the faithful will always remain faithful. I don't think faith is like a lottery ticket. On a lottery ticket some people will lose; others will gain. The faithful will remain faithful till death. True faith may waiver but is never lost. Simon Peter denied Christ three times yet he was called the rock by Jesus. He said on this rock I will build my church. Paul was the apostle to the Gentiles he made Christianity universal. Peter converted the Jews and Paul converted both.


How to open ".ape" file system.. can anybody teach?? i need to know how..

google "ape plugin winamp" or "ape plugin foobar 2000". You need the ape codec.


When I was growing up, I had to go to the library and photocopy the Encyclopedias.  Now you can go to wikipedia, and it's free.  The articles I looked up seem up to date and very accurate.  Is it good enough for school work?  What do the teachers here think?

As a university student, I can tell you that at least professors in general will look down on using that as a source of academic info, although some secondary educators may differ on this point. The problem with it is that anyone can submit an article and be published. It is not peer-reviewed either, so the info may not be completely accurate or up-to-date. For a good source of info regarding encyclopedias, consult one that features articles written by experts in their respective fields, those who have solid credentials like PhDs, MDs, etc. Remember that, individually, opinions will vary from teacher to teacher about this topic, though.


i get buildup of wax in the ears which is difficult to remove

The hospitals use hydrogen peroxide. Lay down, put a little in your ears. The bubbles may make it feel a little uncomfortable but just let it set. Once it's been in there a few minutes, turn over on your other side onto some napkins. It will melt the wax.\n\nedit: dont use olive oil like the below recommends. It can accumulate bacteria and cause an ear infection.


I am doing research on Roe Vs. Wade- the Supreme Court refused, last year, to grant a Writ of Cert to Norma McCorvey. \n\nIn my Civil Lit textbook, it said that a Writ of Cert is a decree that states that a court case must have "national significance" in order for the Supreme Court to see a case. I understand, according to my teacher, that the on-line Law dictionary states that a court case assembles all the pertinent documents, and relays them to the Supreme Court, once a Writ of Cert is granted. \n\n\nDo you have a different definition? What is the true meaning of a Writ of Cert?

Order issued by an appellate court, typically the US Supreme Court, ordering that a case be brought before it from a lower court, for the purpose of reviewing the issues of law.


I recently bought a bike and have started riding but am a little confused about the gears.  What gears are typically used for different inclines and straight aways.  Dont want to be speed racer but dont want to work harder than I have to because I'm using the wrong gear. Thanks

Each time your feet go round they transfer a certain amount of energy (via cogs and chain) to the wheel and then to the road. If the going gets tough you have to send more energy to the road. You can do this in two ways - you can pedal harder (in other words more energy output for the same distance covered) or you can arrange that more energy is delivered to the same patch of road (in other words, same energy output, but less distance covered). Gears give you this choice.\n\nThey do this by changing the number of revolutions of your feet relative to the number of times the back wheel goes round. \n\nThe rules are these:\n\nAlways choose the combination that allows you least effort at your natural cadence (sse below).\n\nIf its hard going (uphill, against the wind, or accelerating hard) use a smaller front gear and a bigger back one. \n\nIf its easy going (downhill, following wind or cruising at a steady pace) use a bigger front gear and a smaller back one. \n\nSmaller front gear with bigger back means your legs go around more often and the wheel goes slower, covering less ground - but, you're putting more energy into each patch of road. Good for climnbing.\n\nThe big front to a smaller back means your legs go slower, but the wheels goes faster - so you are putting less energy into each patch of road, but you're covering more ground.\n\nNow the question arises; exactly which gear?\n\nWell I'll assume you have 3 on the front and 9 on the rear (a very typical setup). If so you don't really have 27 combinations of gears (3 X 9). In practice you can run the small front to the three biggest rear gears. The middle front runs to the middle three rear gears and the big front runs to the smallest three rear gears. If you go more than one cog either side of these combinations the chain is at too great an angle to the cog teeth and you're losing efficiency.\n\nThus you have about 12 gear combinations - still more than enough.\n\nExperience will tell you the best cruising gear. This is your natural 'cadence' for your present level of fitness. Cadence is the rotation rate at the pedals - so count the revolutions over one minute and try to stick to a gradual improvement on this value each time you ride in future. A good cadence is about 80rpm.\n\nKeeping as close as possible to your ideal cadence is your goal. So note the gear combination you're in when your feet seem to turn at the nicest rotation rate for you at the speed you like to travel. These are your cruising gears - for most rides you'll be able to stick to these most of the time.


actually first I didn't like him but then you know. that's the problem

You sound too young to be in love, you are probably experiencing "puppy love" cause if he really did love you he would not care about what your friends say.


I know many people met on the internet and got  married.  Some don't believe it won't last or not real love, do you have any true stories about people having found their real-life partners on the net? thanks for sharing in advance

there are TONS of stories of people meeting on the net, its been going on for longer than many realise. a friend of mine just celebrated her 5th wedding anniversary with the man she met on the internet. they also have two kids, she is a teacher, he is a chiropractor. dont sound like crazy people to me lol. i also know another woman who has been married the same amount of time and her husband moved from overseas to be with her, they have a daughter turning 4 next month. \n\nto me, its not really that different than how many relationships do or dont work out in 'real life'. if i count how many bfs i have had since i was 15, its over 30! so that means i have had 30 failed relationships so far and only one of them was met on the internet (but it still lasted 4 years and we had a daughter). out of the couples i know so far that met on the net and got married, not one of them is divorced. NOT ONE. yeah there is still time i suppose but other couples i know that met in person first have been married and divorced already, over half of them if i sit and count. so whats that say about the odds?

i am 16 years old and i don`t have much money and i want a laptop for computergames like age of mythology,command and conquer general and rise of nation.

The best quality laptop for the money is the Dell, Inspiron serious. You can get an excellent, fast laptop, with plenty of memory, for around 500 dollars. I have a Dell, and I think it is excellent. I have tried many of the top brands, and nothing else even comes close to Dell.


my boyfriend has been spending more time with his friend than me but me and me and his friend dont get along at all but befor he was spending alot of time with me now i barlely see him we talk about getting married and haveing a family but now that he has been spending time with his friend i dont know what to do i love him to death and i want to be with him but ever senice he been hangging with them more i dont know what he's doing and are talks on the phone have been getting shorter and his excuse is that he tired but i dont know if thats the turth or what i mean i want to belive it but something in myself tells me he's lieing so plz if anyone can give me advice plz i would apersheate it

he probably has some really heavy stuff on his mind right now. if you talked of getting married and starting a family, then he may just be in a place where he has to think. i would say that all you can do is honestly tell him how you feel, not angrily or accusitorily, and give him room.


when me and my boyfriend broke up, i was heartbroken, to say the least. Now, he's with another girl, and i can't stand seeing them together. I have kind of let go. it's not like im refusing to let go, its like...I can't. he was my first boyfriend, my first kiss, my first everything. And it kills me to see him with that other girl. Also, she's a lot younger than me. 2 years. \n      He promised me that he would come back to me, but every day, im starting to realize that hes not more and more. He told me to wait for him...but i don't know if I should. I mean...it seemed like breaking my heart didn't seem like a big deal to him. And that kills me worse than anything. we have stopped talking, mainly because his girlfriend has forbidden him from it. Also...he was my first fiance'. I wish there was some way of making him know that the girl he's with right now...it's all infatuation. he even told me.."she's just someone who looks cool to go out with". please help...someone...anyone.\n\n~~Erin

You need to get on the phone and call all of your friends. Have lots of girls nights out. Have some fun. Forget about him. Its hard, you will think about him all the whole time. But force yourself to keep busy. Keep your mind busy. Eventually it will get easier. Your ex is playing you and his girlfriend. He feels insecure about himself and his current relationship. He isnt worth your time of day! Don't you feel sorry for her that he is actually leading you on. Telling you that he is going to come back to you? Wouldn't that be considered "emotional cheating" on her? Think- if he is doing this to her, then he must have done the same to you. You are better then him. Go OUT ! Have fun while you are single. If it was meant to be, then so be it. But don't wait your precious time sitting around waiting for him when you could be spending it with people who really care about you- "your friends & family" Who knows, one of these days you might meet somebody who treats you with respect, "unlike your ex" and then you can tell him.... "Now who will be sitting around waiting..."\n\nHave fun!


I believe your question needs a bit of restructuring.Hydal power is itself stored energy in form stored water at a higher level.Energy is usually released when water is allowed to fall down over turbine i,e potential energy is converted to kinetic energy of turbine blades.


anyone im 15 and my member is 8 inches is that too big please this is serious?

Well 5 to 7 inches is the AVERAGE. If you're an inch or two off of that, you are still normal so it doesn't mean s--t! You are no better or no worse than anyone with a smaller or bigger weenie! Gays may find you particularly attractive but that's about it. Prepare for lots of extra attention at urinals but otherwise just go on with your life normally. Hope this helps!


When our bodies perish...what do youthink happens to our souls?

I know its a bit random but I'd always wondered. 'They say you shouldn't swim directly after eating'. 'They say you can't make a hoe a housewife'. 'The French are ignorant they say'.

aaaaaahhhh the committee of they... To speak of "they" is to add credence to a personal opinion or to bring in the troops to fight a verbal argument. They is a ficticious crowd of experts that have authority over any and all subjects. If someone says ... "they" ask them to produce this ficticious group of people, or just own up to the fact that they are sharing their personal opinion.

if anyone can do this problem i will be very gracious.\n\na boy scout wanted to use Alka-Seltzer tablets to produce enough carbon dioxide to attain a pressure of 4.50 atm at a temperature of 28 degrees C in a 2 liter soda bottle.  the reaction that produces the reaction involves sodium bicarbonate and citric acid (C6H8O7).  an alka-seltzer tablet has a mass of 3.065 g and is 35.0% sodium bicarbonate and 2.50% citric acid by mass.  since this reaction takes place in an aqueous environment, 250. milliliters of water is added to the bottle, the actual volume of the bottle is exactly 210. milliliters. how much alka-seltzer must be added to the bottle to attain the pressure of 4.50 atm? partial tablets are allowed so that an excess pressure is not produced resulting in an explosion.\n\n\ni will be sincerely greatful of anyone who can do this.  what i mainly need is just the equation but if you can do more than that it would help greatly.

Well, let's see here.  You have a "2-liter" bottle that is really 2.10 liters, with 250 ml of water in it.  You want to add enough Alka Seltzer tablets to generate 4.50 atm at 28°C.  I presume you're thinking of making some kind of soda bottle rocket . . .\n\nThis involves using the Ideal Gas Law:  PV = nRT, and what you need to solve for first is the number of moles (n) of CO2 that you need to generate to make the pressure in the bottle 4.5 atm.\n\nWe'll assume that the bottle is rigid -- the volume won't change -- and that the temperature is constant at 28°C.  So there's three of the four variables in the equation:\n\nn = PV/RT\n\nP = 4.50 atm\nV = 2.1 liters - 0.25 liters (the volume of the water), so \nV = 1.85 liters\nT = 28°C = 291K\nR = 8.20568x10^-2 liter-atm/K-mole\n\nso n = (4.50 atm)*(1.85 liter)/(291K)*(8.20568x10^-2)\nn = 0.35 moles of CO2 are required\n\nNow, you have Alka Seltzer tablets that are 35% sodium bicarbonate -- that is where the CO2 will come from.  Assuming all of your sodium bicarbonate will react (100% return), according to the reaction:\n\nHCO3- + H+  =====> H2O + CO2\n\nyou would need 0.35 moles of HCO3- to generate 0.35 moles of CO2.  All of that would come from NaHCO3:\n\n0.35 moles of NaHCO3 = 0.35 * 84.007 grams/mole = 29.4 grams of sodium bicarbonate\n\nIf one Alka Seltzer tablet has a mass of 3.065 grams, and 35% of it is bicarbonate, then you have 1.07 grams of bicarbonate per tablet.  \n\nSo you need *at least*\n\n29.4 grams/(1.07 grams per tablet) = 27.48 tablets\n\nto generate enough CO2 to get a pressure of 4.5 atm.  Make it 27.5 just to be sure.\n\nThat's a lot of Alka Seltzer!  Stand back, 'thar she blows!"

So heres the new update fresh off the god making machine. It seemed like we needed a new god so here She is. All hail Kitty, God and creator of the universe. Praise the omnipotent being that is Her allknowing ness. She is a being a love, not hate like the old god. She lets everyone into my heaven (http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AkzYyxrtC1XSxSJPlmKG3IHsy6IX?qid=1006051729170) except those who have fu-cked up so much that they get a redo and must live on earth once more. There is no hell where you burn in fiery death for eternity for screwing up, no messiahs to worship. Actually you dont have to worship Her greatness at all, all you have to do is be nice and accepting to everyone around you who doesnt hurt people and you will be let into the heaven that i described. so, what are you waiting for.. convert to Kittyism and become loved. \n\n\nBtw. \n9 out of 10 babies think that this is a good idea.


Russia in WW1? \n\nWhy had Russia sided with England and England in WW1 if they had formed the Three Emperors league with Germany and Austria Hungary? What happened between the makings of the two alliances that I'm missing?\n\n\nIt’s a bit confusing, but here is by best attempt at a brief overview of all of the politicking that was going on:\nUnlike the Triple Entente, which was political and meant to check rivals, the Dreikaiserbund (Three Emperor’s League) was formed in 1881 as a response to the growth of political liberalism, and was designed to protect the authoritarian and conservative forms of government in those three countries. It didn’t provide for a military alliance, but instead concentrated on limiting the growth of socialism and republicanism France was viewed as a particular threat as it was a republic. For Germany (the alliance’s creator), the real reason for this alliance was political; it viewed France as a political rival as well as an ideological one, and it hoped to unite Austria-Hungary and Russia against France, using ideology as the basis of this unity. For Russia, its express purpose was most attractive: France was not the rival to Russia that it was to Germany, but Russia did want to preserve its authoritarian political system and feared the rise in violent anti-authoritarian political activity in Russia.  \nThis alliance faded over time, mostly because Otto von Bismarck (whose idea the alliance was) was forced to resign as the German Foreign Minister. His successor, Leo Von Caprivi, wanted a less antagonistic foreign policy, and therefore rejected Russia’s proposal to renew the League of Three Emperors and its inherent opposition to France. \nThe Russian Foreign Minister and Bismarck were both very disappointed about this, but following its dissolution and the increase in tensions in Europe, Russia started thinking about more concrete political goals.  By the time that the Triple Entente with the British and French was singed in 1907, there were too many immediate threats to Russia’s military and political power for it to think about an expired alliance based on (from Russia’s prospective) preserving a form of government.\nI will try to provide an overview of them:\nIn the 19th century, Russia and Great Britain were major rivals in Asia.  Britain wanted to expand its territories North from India, while the Russian Empire (ruled by the Tsars) wanted to expand their own holdings South, through Central Asia (most of which they already controlled.  This was also the time when the Three Kaiser’s Bund was signed – allying with the major rival Britain didn’t make a lot of sense -you are right.  However, Germany was starting to involve itself in Asia and gain influence at Russia and Britain’s expense. In response, Russia and Great Britain signed an agreement in 1907 Anglo-Russian Entente, which defined their respective “spheres of influence” in the region. They agreed to stop costing each other for power in order to allow each other to consolidate their own powers in their respective areas, and thereby prevent the Germans from becoming a player in the region.\n\nThis lay the groundwork for another alliance, the Triple Entente.  This was signed between Great Britain, Russia and France, and again a major motivation was to check the rise of the Germans (France viewed Germany as a major rival in continental Europe, England in Europe and Asia, Russia in Asia).  Originally the Triple Entente wasn’t a military alliance, but more of an agreement to work together to increase their power and influence at the expense of another set of allies; Imperial Germany, Austria-Hungary and the Ottoman Empire.  This last ally of the allies was of particular interest to Russia, as they had fought the Ottoman Empire for centuries, and viewed many of its territories as the ultimate possessions of the Russian empire.  At the same, time, Germany was pulling away from cooperation with Russia and England f


I currently have a presentation I am working on for my Pharmacy 1065 class covering “Over the Counter” medications (OTC).  I am currently working on Cold, Flu, and Respiratory Products. One of the things my professor would like us to figure out is, “What are some of the common remedies you grew up with?” Maybe something your parents believed was the cure for the common cold, flu, or resolved allergies, and asthma. Some of the remedies I have heard about are “Drink a couple of hard shots of liquor to try and burn the cold or flu out of your system.”  Another is the take a lot of Vitamin C, or Echinacea.  Unfortunately the Echinacea has been proven not to work, and the vitamin C only helps a little bit according to some articles on Pharmacytime.com.  One I heard about allergies is that if you eat a lot of foods that are grown locally to the area your currently living in will help you develop a tolerance to the pollens, and plant allergies of the area. Any thoughts would be help full.

I am from the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago,where there are many different cultures so i have many. but 'trinis' use alot of 'bush' medicine such as 'fever grass','chandiler'and a mixture of honey,lime and onion followed by a good beach bath


Ned is one of the main characters in the novel of “Rice without Rain”. He himself was grown up in a small village with no parents. He has gone through a lot of stuff and worked hard to achieve what he has achieved.\nNed could be considered as an observant person, who carefully watches what’s going on around him. He pays attention to the people and things around him and observes how they react to things that have been said or happened. When Jinda went to Bangkok, Ned was being observant. He often was thinking about Jinda and what would happen in the future. Another situation where Ned was being observant was at the university where all these people asked Jinda questions.\nNed is also someone who cares, puts effort into his work and the most important he respects his work. In short, he is ambitious about his work and things he does. At the village of Meakung Ned was working hard to convince the villagers to support his idea. He wanted his idea to success. Another example of him being ambitious was at Bangkok. There he was the leader who organized everything for the huge demonstration. He wanted everything to be perfect for the strike which is another sign of being ambitious.\nNed is also a gentle kind of a person, who cares about the people he knows. He was very gentle with Jinda at the village and in Bangkok. He supported her to not make her feel lonely at Bangkok, which helped Jinda to feel better.\nIn conclusion, Ned is a kind of person who wants to success in life but also help other people to have a better life.

Sounds good. Maybe the only thing I would add is perhaps a direct quote that Ned said, and then reference which page it came from. Or maybe even 2 quotes. Have a great day.

I'm looking to join a sorority on UPenn campus. I'm Asian-American but perferably I don't want to attend a sorority exclusive to only Asians. Anyway, I'd appreciated ANY names of UPenn sororityes that I could possibly attend. Also, I don't want to attend any sororities that have really weird pledges or do hazing...that just freaks me out completly.  \nThanks.

I sugesst you check out this site:\nhttp://www.vpul.upenn.edu/ofsa/about.html\n\nAs for hazing I don't know of any sorority girls at penn so i could not give you the skinny but i will tell you there have been no recent reports of hazing in either fraternities or sororities that made it to the news. \n\nHazing depends on the house and how strict national is I have a friend at UVM who pledge process held here higher than the current members, but that house was very strict about following the national rules.\n\nHazing really isn't bad at all for girls is my experience of talking to sisters at many schools


i'm writting a project on the effect of education on street foods.and i need to do review of authors like;akinyele I[1987]study of sreet food in  ibadan;nigeria:characteristics study of vendors & consumrs,Pearce T.O[1984]the place of street food in urban diet,IPB,TNO,VW[1990]consumers of street foods.and any other literature available

by "street foods" do you mean roadkill, like opossum pancakes, or flat cats?


I am doing this for an English Assignment

A cacophony of ringing cell phones is annoying anywhere, but in the classroom it's an unacceptable distraction. A decade ago, it would have been an unheard-of distraction, as well. Few adults owned or used cellular phones then, and even fewer children. \n\nBut times have changed. As the prices of cell phones fall, their use is growing, especially among teenagers. Increasingly, school boards are having to decide how to deal with students who bring these ubiquitous communication devices to school. \n\nIt might seem like a no-brainer to ban student use of cell phones in schools, but few policy decisions are that clear-cut. The necessity for banning another electronic communication device -- the pager -- has been widely understood and accepted. Cell phone bans, however, present a conundrum: During the Columbine shootings, students were able to call for help on their cell phones, drawing dramatic attention to the safety aspects of cell phones. \n\nInexpensive equipment and low-cost family service plans have made cell phones "affordable to just about anyone," says Lisa Ihde, manager of wireless education programs at the Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association in Washington, D.C. Parents want the phones, says Ihde, to communicate with their children throughout the day. The association doesn't know how many of the phones that parents buy go to their children, but anecdotally, cell phone use by teens seems to be on the rise. \n\nSchool boards can find themselves at odds with parents or their communities when forming policies about student cell phones, despite the conviction held by many educators that student cell phones do not belong in school. "Cell phones ringing during a class would be very distracting to the learning environment," says Mary Beth King, vice president of the Plano, Texas, school board. "We are committed to maintaining the sanctity of the classroom." \n\nEven among those who endorse cell phone restrictions, there is disagreement. Some educators believe only a total ban will prevent disruptions. Others argue that bans don't teach children to use technology like cell phones responsibly.\n\n\nCommunity support: \n\nSome school boards have faced dissenting parents over the ban, while others have earned community support. The Plano Independent School District has banned electronic communication devices since 1995. Board vice president King says the board put the policy in place before many students had access to cell phones or pagers. \n\n"Parents have been very understanding about the policy and supportive of [there being] no disruptions in student learning," says King. "We are also very good about facilitating communication, should a parent need to reach the child during the school day." \n\nIn Franklin, Wis., the school board first banned pagers, then broadened the policy to include two-way electronic communication devices. Dave Szychlinski, president of the Franklin School Board, says the broad language was necessary because it could include up-and-coming technology, such as handheld computers like Palm Pilots. "Students functioned well before cell phones," says Szychlinski. "They're not necessary for students in their daily activities." \n\nBefore the Cobb County (Ga.) School Board banned pagers and cell phones in 1997, teachers complained that students interrupted class when they forgot to turn off their beepers or ringers. Also, students talked on the phones between classes. \n\nBoard member Curt Johnston says parents were unhappy at first, but became used to the rule. On the other hand, students complained that they were being punished for the misbehavior of only a few students, a point he sees as valid. "I would prefer to confiscate devices and charge in-school suspensions for in-school users or disrupters on a case-by-case basis," says Johnston, "but not ban possession by students who use them responsibl


Is it supposed to be written in modern english or how they spoke back then?

Vernacular would not matter as long as it's in iambic pantemeter(sp).


OK.  But that was like 3rd grade.\n\nI did pledge my alligience every day too ... "with liver, tea and justice for all"   ;-)


I thought there was a statute of limitations of how long bank ruptcy could stay on your record. It is 12 years and every time I apply for something the rejection letter says the reasion for denial is bankruptcy.

I wish you folks would actually know the answer and quit guessing!\n\nNow class, lets all open our books to the Fair Credit Reporting Act.\n\nIt says :\n\n==============\n§ 605. Requirements relating to information contained in consumer reports [15 U.S.C. § 1681c]\n\n(a) Information excluded from consumer reports. Except as authorized under subsection (b) of this section, no consumer reporting agency may make any consumer report containing any of the following items of information:\n\n    (1) Cases under title 11 [United States Code] or under the Bankruptcy Act that, from the date of entry of the order for relief or the date of adjudication, as the case may be, antedate the report by more than 10 years.\n=============\n\nTherefore, it can only be posted for 10 years, and must be removed.  It has nothing to do with the "statute of limitations".\n\nNow, what you need to find out is if you were rejected due to information supplied by the credit reporting agency, or did they find this out by going through bankruptcy court records.  Those records are considered "public records" and do not go away or get erased. \n\nIf it was from the CRA, you should contact the agencies and inform them that they are improperly posting adverse inforamtion about you, in violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act.  By doing this, you can hold them liable for any damages, such as the loss of a loan, or higher interest rates you are forced to pay when you do find one.\n\nIf you send them a letter, you should see this come off within 30 days.  If not, sue them!  Contact me if you need help.\n\nI am not a lawyer or credit counsoler, just someone who knows the law and helps to counsel people in dealing with creditors/agencies.


you know google exists.  just look it up on google.


I think they cheated somehow on the votes!! I think katherine should have been gone cause chris was the best singer on there!!!

omg i so think that is unfair.  Kathrine so should have gone out. she is soo robotic (if you know what i mean)  Chris is the best evr to be on American idol!


I don't like rap or Heavy Metal with cussing and vulger language. i like the smooth sounds of R&B, jazz and gospel. Ususally when I buy CD's I only like one or two songs. Are there any CDs that are good all the way through?

i love alicia keys, india.arie, anthony hamilton, and letoya luckett's new single "torn"


If so, why would Israelis be dancing in the street?  Did they know that the WTC would be attacked?  How did they know?

They sure did.  Five or six Israeli "art students" were caught on tape in NJ, near a gray colored van.  They were cheering, high-fiving and otherwise celebrating.\n\n\n"But not all of the eye-witnesses to the 9-11 slaughter were so saddened. On September 11, five Israeli army veterans were arrested by the FBI after several witnesses saw them "dancing", "high-fiving", and "celebrating" as they took pictures of the World Trade Center disaster from across the river in New Jersey. Steven Gordon was the lawyer who volunteered to represent the five Israelis. He was asked by a Hebrew newspaper why the five men were being detained by the FBI. Here’s what Gordon told Yediot America:\n\n"On the day of the disaster, three of the five boys went up on the roof of the building where the company office is located," said Gordon. "I'm not sure if they saw the twin towers collapse, but, in any event, they photographed the ruins right afterwards. One of the neighbors who saw them called the police and claimed they were posing, dancing and laughing, against the background of the burning towers….\n\n"Anyhow, the three left the roof, took an Urban truck, and drove to a parking lot, located about a five-minute drive from the offices. They parked, stood on the roof of the truck to get a better view of the destroyed towers and took photographs. A woman who was in the building above the lot testified that she saw them smiling and exchanging high-fives. She and another neighbor called the police and reported on Middle-Eastern looking people dancing on the truck. They copied and reported the license plates. 2\n\nWhen the photos were developed, they revealed that the dancing Israelis were smiling in the foreground of the New York massacre. 3 According to ABC’s 20/20 attempted whitewash of the incident, in addition to their outrageous and highly suspicious behavior, the five also had in their possession the following items; box-cutters, European passports, and $4700 cash hidden in a sock. 4 Why were these Israeli agents so happy about the horrible massacre that was unfolding right before their very eyes? What evil spirit could possess people who are supposed to be America's "allies", and who receive billions of dollars in financial and military aid from US taxpayers each year , to publicly rejoice as innocent people (including many American jews) were burning to death and jumping out of 110 story buildings? Could it be that these happy Israeli army veterans were in some way linked to this monstrous attack? That’s what officials close to the investigation initially told The Bergen Record newspaper of New Jersey."


Surely, he is just trying to portray an image that is less eliteist.\nDid no-one see the white house correspondents dinner, where he acted dumb? quite convincingly i thought.\nHe was elected twice (dubiuosly) which suggests he convinced enough people.\nHe should be regarded as a good actor. \nHe is IN power and carrying out an agenda to benefit himself, his interests, and his financial supporters.\nA clever actor.(an evil one of course)

By sheer luck less than a half an hour ago I posted an entry to my blog talking about that ( http://sinthyia.blogspot.com/2006/05/our-fearless-leader.html ).  No, I don't think he is dumb and I think it is dangerous for people to dismiss him as that as well.


i like this guy we are both freshman and he stands by my locker with a friend(his frends locker is right by mine) and i just walk by and i turn around and i see him gone..i told him i liked him

Well, does he look at you? does he smile at you?  Does he or is he "teasing" you?\n  There just aren't enough details.  It sounds like you like him and he is at the locker with his friend, which sounds reasonable, and when his friend leaves, he does to.\n  I don't get it?  Does he like you?  WEll, what ELSE does he do or not??\n  If you really want to find out, I guess you could stick a note in the locker for him, or if you know his own locker and just say who you are and you wonder if he'd like to catch a movie with you on Saturday?    Tell him, "I'm the one next to your friends locker."\n  Maybe this guy hasn't even noticed  you?


everything is working fine including the internet but does it really matter if the wire of internet is in zig zag manner.all the wires are messy. does this affect the speed of the internet?

I would say NO. (and if the mess under my desk is anything to go by, definately NO)


y is everyone so angry at me!!!???? im so depressed!!! i hate my life!!!!!!!!

Don't be depressed.  Not everyone is angry at you, I'm not.  It does no good to be depressed, it only makes things worse.  You have to look at the up side of things and they will get better.  Be an optimist not a pessimist.  Remember, the glass is half full, there is happiness beyond the grey skies, and every road has bumps in it.


Since dark matter and dark energy can't be detected because they are composed of 'exotic' material, maybe spirits/ghost are also composed of this 'exotic' material....

Dark matter has mass. The spirit leaves the body when a person dies.\n\nThe spirit does not have mass. This can be proved as follows: When we die and as our spirit leaves our body, our weight does not decrease, unless we wait long enough for bacterial decay.\n\nTherefore, spirits do not consist of dark matter.


ive just bought 1 gig of ram,to be added to the 1 gb i already had,but terms like overclocking,and windows xp tune-up,im new to,and havent a clue,about how to,or why i might want to do this .so basically,if ur a techie,or major geek,and dont mind schooling me with the info,advice,or tricks of the trade, needed,in order to improve my computer speed,performance,stability,so i can get the maximum potential out of my t-5020,id really appreciate  it.this  pc is used  only for media/home entertainment,burning mp3s,and dvds,porn,ect.ect.anyways,multitasking is much more enjoyable when the pc can handlethetasks given without overworking itself.

Overclocking is running your CPU (processor) at a frequency (speed) higher than that advertised. Don't worry about overclocking. If you don't know what you are doing and you try to overclock, you _will_ damage your computer irreperably.\n\n2GB RAM should be sufficient (is it fast enough? ;-).\nYou might consider getting a faster CPU, a bigger HD, faster video card, better sound card, etc., depending on your needs. (If the sound quality sucks or you are an audiophile, get a better sound card; if the video is slow, get a better video card; etc.)\n\nJudging by the company who made your computer, you might just want to build a new one from scratch. If you're interested, read my article about that at http://www.sitespaces.net/blog.php?viewblog&706\n\nAfter your computer is built, you should also look at "how can i increase [my] system speed?" on Yahoo Answers - http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=1006050513853


I am not in shape but I'm not fat and I want to have a great body.

You know this answer -- we all do.  But few have the discipline to do it.\n\n30 min to 1 hr of cardio and strength-training every other day.  Push to your own limit.  When lifting weights, use good form, slow and steady pace -- less weight and more reps for leaner, longer muscles -- heavy weights with reps to the very edge of fatigue for bulk.\n\nEat lots of fresh fruits and veggies, and avoid salt, trans-fats and processed foods.


I have a common dream theme that finds me remembering rooms in my apartment that i forgot were there or that i just never use. I have figured that my home represents myself, and that the rooms that i forget represent some part of my childhood or the very base of my personality. I figure this because the forgotten rooms are always already furnished and decorated, and it never occurs to me to redecorate, it's like it's unchangeable. Also, they're always decorated in an 80's style, and i was born in 1980.\nAll of this makes sense to me, but i can't figure out why i either forget these rooms, or just never use them. Once i remember them i decide to spend some time there and find it comfortable. What are your thoughts on these dreams?\nThanks!

I'm no expert by far, but perhaps these rooms are facets\nof your personality that you don't openly show? They could\nbe emotions, or maybe something you enjoy but avoid \nbecause it's not considered cool by your friends?


do you agree they deserve it.  how do you feel about watching those home movies of american soldiers getting blown to smithereens by hidden bombs and shot in sniper attacks?  can america ever repay the suffering it's inflicted on peoples around the globe.  what about those christians that picket at soldier's funerals.  they say america is an abomination and deserves god's punishment.  do you agree

You know it saddens me when people are uninformed or have made up their minds and closed it to any other facts because they have listened to someone that is not aware of what is really happening in the world.\n\nThis country has been attacked in so many different ways leading up to the world trade center being hit by the airplanes as well as the one that reached the pentagon in Washington, D.C.\n\nIf you go back through history as early as the second world war, had Hitler had his way and conquered allof Europe as he planned he would have turned his army on the United States. He had already drawn up plans, airplanes and ships that were capable of reaching the United States. If he had had his way, just think all people that were not blonde and blue eyed would probably have been killed as he did his own people in Germany and other countries he and his army took without anyone doing anything to stop him. You would also be required to speak German and you would not have freedom of speech or any of the things we take for granted here.\n\nSince we were attacked we had to defend ourselves and take the fight to the enemy, no matter where the enemy is located. I know that you have never been to war, but it is not a pretty sight, killing on both sides and losing limbs. \n\nIf you chose to call your American fighting men oppressors you have freedom of speech and can do that. I call it not having to fight on American soil with all the blown up buildings, schools, churches, homes and other things that go on during the course of a war. These American oppressors keep the fight off our shores and hav other countries blown up leaving ours intact, so the American people can go around calling our American fight men OPPRESSORS.\n\nYou may also get up got to school daily, attend the church of you choice, date whom ever you desire, drive a fancy car, live in a nice neighborhood,  see your parents daily and know they will be there at night when they finish work, also so that you can go shopping at your favorite store or the many that you have a choice to shop at.\n\nYes those are our American Opressors there fight for all those things with no support here from the American people at all. BUT THEN YOU HAVE THAT RIGHT DON'T YOU?\n \nI hope this has been of some use to you, good luck.\n\n"FIGHT ON"


I've heard of people crying after sex, but what about feeling like you're about to cry when you're just turned on?

I am trying to find a good tutorial for Linux, I have a few books and have some of the basics down, but I really need something that is easy for the beginner to read, anyone know of any good tutorials out there?


Are you severely disabled according to the German Disabled Persons Act (SGB IX)?\n\nWhere can I find more information? (I am dyslexic)

well, I receive welfare,and when I don't understand a question on the app. I always leave it blank and then a case worker will call me and ask why I didn't answer the question I tell her that I didn't understand then she explains it to me. and then I give her the answer. maybe you can do that and get help that way. I hope this helps you alittle. good luck :-)


i want results from people who are not virgins, and i have experienced having sex before

yes it will hurt...unless youve had objects in your vagina as big as his penis.you may or may not bleed depending on what youve had in yourself.


what is the best and safest  way to meet someone online?

Meeting people online is very risky. You have no guarantees on who you'll be meeting or what circumstances you may be walking into. With that said, I believe the best way to go about meeting "strangers" is to have safety measures set in place in case things go terribly wrong. (1) Meet in a public place (2) Take a friend with you to watch your back (3)Make sure you have a cell phone preferably w/ a camera feature and lastly (4)Even if a friend can go with you, tell someone else where you intend to go and/or when you should return!! You can never be too cautious and I am in no way saying meeting people online is a bad thing. You can very well meet a psycho at work, in a store or a number of other places but I am stressing the importance of your personal well being. Take CARE!!

my son was digitally removed from a picture in  the newspaper because the owner/editor of the paper didn't like him looking away and not directly at him for a school picture. CAn the legally, ethically do this?

Legally, unless it is out right fraud or slander the editor of a newspaper has the right to add and delete contents of an article. Ethically is another viewpoint. I am sure your son was - as well as you - was very disappointed to see his picture was not there. It is not the best choice the editor could have made, albeit it was very calloused. But I do not think you have any legal grounds on which to challenge him. Do something special with your son and let him know how special he is to you and burn the newspaper.


What should I do to make it a really FUN day?I want to make him happy!What should we do??????

Go for a picnic or arrange a savenger hunt where he goes and picks up things for a cool date. for instance go to 7-11 and pick up his favorite soda and include 1.50 in an evenelope then have the worker give him the next clue at Blockbuster for him to pick up a cool movie the last clue is st your house where you watch a movie and bake some cookies together. Whatever you do use your imagination and it will be fun. You could make him a mix tape with cool songs for you to dance to.... think, it'll be great!


In my state of NC, most section 8 homes and apartments are in the projects, or other not so great areas of town. Why is this? I know you can't live luxuriously, but come on! Some of the houses are in the middle of "Crimeville Avenue", between "Hood Street" and "Ghetto Boulevard!"\n\nIs this some type of conspiracy thing where the government keeps the people who live in those areas in a certain class or a certain side of town. Serious reponses only!

Well never having been to America, your system, whilst different to ours in England does have the same thread running through it so to speak.  Here in Britain it is the councils who create the ghetto's They tend to take a place that has or is starting to get a bit of a bad name and they start putting petty criminals, nuisance neighbours, rowdy types into that area.  The decent people living there do their very best then to get out but nobody wants to exchange houses with them, the council will not allow a transfer unless there is a serious reason such as a medical one, and if they have been unfortunate enough to have bought their council house, nobody wants to buy it from them. They are then well & truly stuck whilst the council continue to put the dross onto the estate. I believe it is for the purpose of facilitating the council's own interests and that of the police. I know this sounds awful but that is what I believe. I am so sorry for you if you are stuck in a situation like that & I hope that you find some peace somewhere


I'd like to know what this is and how it is done.

A cross-clamp is a tool used to close off (clamp) a large artery, often the aorta, during surgery when it is necessary to prevent blood from passing through that vessel. This is what cross-clamp means. Think of it as a large hemastat, it stops blood.\n\nHow is it done? Suppose you have damage to a large artery. I could cross-clamp the artery above the damage, temporarily stopping blood from flowing through the damaged area while I make the repair.  When I'm confident the repair will hold, I release the clamp and watch for leaks.  \n\nHow does it apply to heart surgery?  If repair needs to be done to the heart, it's much, much easier to do this and see what you're doing if the heart isn't full of blood.  But you gotta work FAST.


Note the pictures on these two sites:\n\nhttp://www.westmiller.com/fairvote2k/in_gerry.htm\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gerrymandering\n\nI'm not American but if I were I would see this as a blatant and cynical attempt to disenfranchise me. If people wonder why Americans vote so little, this looks like a good place to start - why would people even bother if the seats are so 'safe'?\n\nYet, as much as politics are motivated by self-interest, lobby groups have a large voice in American politics too. Why has there never been a (successful) anti-gerrymandering lobby set up in the USA?\n\nA quote:\n\n"In 2002, out of 435 seats, only four incumbents lost to challengers, the fewest ever in our whole history."\n\nIsn't that amazing?

yes, extremely. That they used  computers to gerrymander is\nbeyond reprehensible. that it passed as law is worse. Of course, texas has it even worse than we do. \nRight now, gerrymandering is one key way that republicans manage to win elections, amongst the other ways they rig the vote.

This Louisiana politician (it ought to tell you something that he's from the corrupt city of New Orleans) has been caught on tape accepting bribes, $90K was found wrapped up in his freezer in his home, and this fuckin' piece of shit is still denying that he is a corrupt scumbag who took bribes!  What fucking gall!\n\nWhat do you think of this asshole?  Do you think he'll eventually be forced to resign?  Will he be removed from office?  I mean, the evidence against him, that I've read of, seems pretty damning.  Two people have already pleaded guilty in the related case.  What kind of pussy coward of a man won't admit he was corrupt when they capture him on a fucking VIDEOTAPE taking the money?!  What is this shit-ball going to say when it's finally too much to deny? (Like it's not too much to deny already!)  With any luck they'll find him on a toilet having slit his wrists -- do us all a favor, Jefferson, you corrupt piece of shit.\n\nWhat say you?\n\n-Jeffrey

Nowadays and it has seemed since the birth of democracy here in the United States, the government has always been susceptible to being held by people(s) who were either only seeking money, or fame, or power but really didn't care about the people and I think we have a growing number of those type of people running our government. They either don't give a shit about the issues or have a totally f'd up point of view on it. They become rich and most are egotistical bastards and there is a reason why they give tax cuts to the rich and tax incentives to them. Because they benefit too and so do their relatives, who are usually wealthy. They are not for the people. So if he is in government and he is like most politicians then he is a "sgusting shitpile liar" like you so eloquently put. When I say most, I mean most, not all. Not all people in politics and government at any level are corrupt. There are good apples in the bunch but they usually get eaten by the snakes.


my best friend has recently told me i was the first person she loved and she still loves me. i love her to but she says its complicated and now has a boyfriend. what should i do about it?

Dating best freinds is a complicated situation alright. If she is with a new person, I would suggest (as hard as this will be) to give her space. If you are meant to be together then you will find eachother again. Sometimes it takes time to realize that the person you had the first time is the right person. but you can also realize, like she may have, that the original spark fizzled and she now is uncomfortable being honest with you about it. Becuase shd did love you, she will not want to hurt you. \nGive her space and let the Universe take care of things.

Bass = Geddy Lee (back vocals)\nPercussion = Neal Peart\nGuitar = Eddie van Halen\nVocals = Steve Perry (Freddie Mercury when he was alive)\nKeys = Steve Winwood (back vocals)\nRhythm Guitar = Neal Schon or Alex Lifeson, either of which could be lead as well if you wanna dump Eddie.


Is there a way to cheat death with tecnology

i suppose some have tried, but so far every one has failed.


from what I read, to be a PT, you need to have a 4 yr degree then goto a PT school, is that correct? what if you stay only with the 4yr degree?......but how about this school http://www.quinnipiac.edu/x1025.xml its saying 6.5 yrs to get your doctor degree, is that right? \n\n"Following completion of the 3.5 years of study, students receive a Bachelor of Science in Health/Science Studies, and receive a Doctor of Physical Therapy at the end of the program."

You are required to have a Master's or Doctoral degree to obtain your license to practice as a PT.  Either you can get a 4 year degree and go to a PT school for 3+ years or you can go to a program like Quinnipiac offers which is referred to as 3+3.  The first 3+ years is undergraduate and the second 3+ years is graduate school - it is slightly accelerated and more focused on PT than if you get a 4 year degree at another school.\n\nAccredited schools that offer admits students as freshmen are:\n\nConnecticut\nQuinnipiac University\nSacred Heart University\n\nIndiana\nUniversity of Evansville\n\nMaine\nHusson College\n\nMassachusetts\nAmerican International College\nBoston University\nNortheastern University\nSpringfield College \n\nMissouri\nMaryville University of Saint Louis \nSaint Louis University \n\nNew Jersey\nThe Richard Stockton College of New Jersey\n\nNew York\nDaemen College \nIthaca College \nNazareth College of Rochester \nNew York Institute of Technology \nThe Sage Colleges \nTouro College \nUtica College \n\nPennsylvania\nCollege Misericordia \nDrexel University \nDuquesne University\nSaint Francis University \nUniversity of Scranton \nUniversity of the Sciences in Philadelphia \n\nVermont\nUniversity of Vermont \n\nWisconsin\nCarroll College \nMarquette University\n\nMaster's Degree vs. Doctoral Degree: Depends on the school.  Most schools are transitioning to doctoral degrees.  This is a Doctoral of Physical Therapy (DPT) not a PhD.


my GM told our Area Director, (the bigger boss), and asked me if i wanted to file a complaint.  i told him that i wanted them to talk to him and if, after that talk, his lewd comments continued, then i would file a sexual harrassment lawsuit (or complaint), against him.  \n  i found out later that my manager is going to be transferred to a different store in a week.  (i work in a corporate restaurant.)  should i file a complaint? is company policy typically to just transfer someone so that they may do it again to another woman?  or should he be fired?  i do feel slightly guilty because i don't want him to lose his job, but he says some very vulgar and detailed things to me. he's just gone way over the line.  \n  so, should i file a lawsuit?  do i have a case?  i have witnesses to some things he's said.  thanks for any input.

Eesh.  You've got a difficult situation.\n\nI would not file a lawsuit unless you want this to drag on for years and other women have been harassed as well and complained to no avail.\n\nI would, however, file an official complaint against him so that it's on his track record with the company.  That way, should another woman be in this situation, the company can't say they didn't know about it.\n\nIf the company penalizes you for the complaint, then you have a case.  Otherwise you can't blame the company when they acted on your complaint for not doing something when they weren't aware.  In this case, they seem to have reacted to the issue.. but still something official needs to be filed.


I think that two teams that will meet in the final of the world cup in Germany will be Brazil and Croatia, if You know Croatia already played versus Brazil in August 2005 and draw, and in March versus Argentina 3-2 Croatia won. If Croataia goes through first stage of competition where they have Brazil in the group again than I belive two teams in the final will be CROATIA - BRAZIL


I am an aspiring writer looking for an aspiring (or aspired) director to bring a script or two to life.  I have written and can write low budget easy to make shorts or features.  Answer this with your email or just email me if you like.

A good place to look is 'Shooting People'. They have a network of filmmakers, writers etc. and you can get in touch with directors who might be interested in your screenplay. Also try triggerstreet, (owned by Kevin Spacey) it's worth seeing what other writers etc. think of your screemplay and it gets it out there. Also you could try contacting film schools. First time directors are always looking for good screenplays and its a good way to get started.

why does guys like to go to the gym and build alot of muscle? im talking about guys that have bodies like some people in world wrestling champions.is it for health only? or for attracting women? or to show off to other guys?

as a guy who loves woking out i think i can answer this question with its a lil bit of everything.....i used to do it mostly for women then i realised that a lot of women dont care about looks....but i still like having a sexy bod for the ladies....but the main reason i do it now is for sports like football and rugby.......but i also do it for health reasons because its always good to be healthy then you look and feel better about your self image.......and then theres those gay men who work out for sure in the gym for other men..........but i always wonder about those wrestlers like in the wwe or wwf who get all bulked up and take roids and that stuff when wrestling on tv is so fake


What are the advantages of using an artificial satellite which rotates with the earth?

The main advantage is a somewhat "fixed" location in the sky relative to the Earth, and relative ease in repositioning them into other fixed positions. There are also some advantages to lower orbits. \n\nGPS satellites are NOT geostationary.  They rely on precise on board time signals and precise knowledge of their orbital ephemerii and a large enough "constellation" such that 3 or more are above the horizon and able for your receiver to pick up at any point in time over nearly the whole planet. \n\nWith a sophisticated control system you can make do with several low orbiting satellites.  The advantage with a low orbit is they are cheaper to launch, and can cover a broader range of latitudes ( geostationary orbits MUST orbit over the equator to be geostationary.  That means at higher latitudes they are lower on the horizon.  At some point they become unusuable, so are not suitable for high bandwidth or reliable communications in places like northern Europe or Russia.) Geo satellites would make EXCELLENT relay satellites for constellations of lower orbiting spacecraft, permitting spacecraft to spacecraft communication. Instead of having to relay between several to get around the globe (*) You could go up to a geo, over to another geo and back down to the other low orbiter and get almost anywhere.  You might need two hops between geos in some circumstances.\n\n(*)which would also require a much more densly populated constellation.  Iridium was named that because the original plan was to have as many satellites as the element Iridium has electrons; 77!


Or is the media mail charge just for the service?

The Post Office should have some cushioned envelopes for sale that would hold a CD. You could send it first class and the postage would probably be less than $2.00. If you'd like to be able to get a delivery confirmation, you could add that for up to 60 cents more if I'm not mistaken.

i haev windows ME which is right before windows 2k and after 98SE. i can only get windows media player 9. when i downloaded it it said it cudnt play .avi files because it did not have the codecs that it needed. well i downloaded them, and all it does is play the sounds, and it shows no picture. it plays like it plays audio files. it shows those little motion pics that u can choose from wen u play music. i just want to know why it wont play the .avi files video, and how to fix that. need answer ASAP!!

You first need to know what codec the AVI file was encoded in so that you can find hte right codec. These days it's almost always divx or its opensoursce rival Xvid.\n\nTo check what codec was used to encode the movie you should try Gspot (you got a dirty mind) and work accordingly\n\nhttp://dvd.box.sk/index.php?pid=soft&prj=info&rid=8009\n\nI havent worked with the new version so i can't give you exact instructions. Basically you click FILE then you browse to where your AVI is, click it and open. It's all there.\n\nTo download divx visit \nhttp://www.divx.com\n\nto download Xvid\nhttp://www.xvid.org/\n\nIf you have downloaded the neccasary codecs and it still wont play, there might be a problem with one of the index's in the file, possibly the first one. in this case you could try divfix to rebuild the index.\n\nhttp://www.divx-digest.com/software/divfix.html\n\nThere are also all in one codec packs but i don't reccomend any. All the codecs can be found at \n\nhttp://www.free-codecs.com\nhttp://dvd.box.sk

I found a butterfly with a broken wing in the grass in my front yard. I let it crawl into my hand and then I put it on a bush by my window so that the wind wouldn't blow it away. I know that butterflies don't live very long, and this one isn't going to go anywhere because of it's broken wing. So, when it dies, it'll still be on the bush, and I want to preserve it like dried rose petals or something. So what exactly should I do with it?

the normal method is to fix the wings  to two piesces of cardboard using strips of paper, use a needle to affix the body, and let it dry

I've already install windows IIS6.0 in our home server

The easiest way is to purchase a piece of VPN hardware that does the work for you. I have owned several of these over the years. D-Link, Netgear and Linksys all make routers with VPN code built in, so that someone from the outside can establish a VPN connection to the router, then can see computing resources behind the router.\n\nI found that configuring the PC's to connect to the VPN hardware was the most difficult task. There are third party VPN Clients available that you can load on those PC and which make things much easier. I found that configuring the Windows IP/SEC stack was almost impossible.\n\nI don't know of any VPN Server software that can run on a PC.

im doin a project in my e-commerce class and we have to choose a product and make a website and advertise it..what could be a good product to sale?

Use a product that you use all the time. Tooth paste, deodorant, soap, brand of clothing, etc. etc. etc. This will give you an advantage because your already familiar with the product. Then just do a little research on that product like history of the product and company. After that set up your projected sales for a month. As a rule of thumb your advertising budget should be 3% to 5% of your projected sale. From there set up your web site and be sure to use power words that sale in your product description and advertising.


I have a friend or almost boyfriend that today asked me if that by the fact that he likes to check out guys does that make him a little on the fruity side. He said he wouldn't have sex with a guy or go out with one but that hell check out guys by their body, style , and face on a regular basis, is this normal?

Dear heart,\n\nIt is more normal than most men would be able to admit.\n\nYour bf is an honest and fairly courageous guy to confide in you about this.  This is unusual and might be a good reason for you to invest more time in him.\n\nWomen check out other women constantly and this is not regarded as "abnormal".\n\nMen are also human, usually more human than they are able to admit.  \n\nAnd times are different now.  The older generation of men could not possibly own up to what your bf is saying.  He is actually with the times pretty well.\n\nAnd even if he is sexually attracted to certain other males, it does not mean he is not a good partner for you.  \n\nTruth be told, a LOT of males are sexually attracted to certain other males at times.  Most do not admit this to themselves, and it festers and screws up their relationships.\n\nSo I think you do have a bf who is honest with you about important things.  And that is a good thing.\n\nHope this helps.


....in a situation like this: \nA man was feeling very depressed and walked into a bar and ordered a triple scotch whiskey. As the bartender poured him the drink he remarked, "That's quite a heavy drink. What's wrong?" \nAfter quickly downing his drink, the man replied, "I got home and found my wife having sex with my best friend." \n"Wow," exclaimed the bartender, as he poured the man a second triple scotch. "No wonder you needed a stiff drink. The second triple is on the house." \nAs the man downed his second triple scotch, the bartender asked him, "What did you do?" \n"I walked over to my wife," the man replied, "looked her straight in the eye and told her that we were through and to pack her stuff and to get the hell out." \n"That makes sense," said the bartender, "but what about your friend?" \nThe man replied, "I walked over to him, looked him right in the eye and said, 'bad, bad dog!'"

I don't like to use peer-to-peer or bittorrent platforms to download tv or music because in the process of providing an upstream, my IP is visible and I could potentially be busted for distributing copyright content.\n\nTherefore I prefer to download via UseNet (NNTP).\n\nTwo questions:\n1. Are my assumptions above sound?\n2. Any experts out there can confirm that NNTP is a safe way to go since it involves only downloading what is already out there without having to share back?\n\nthanks!

Here's a couple excerpts from everything2.com:\n\n"Usenet's alt.binaries set of newsgroups is essentially a file sharing service using Usenet's messaging service for transport. Users settled on a common structure for exchanging files: the subject line contains the file name and a description of the file, and the body of the message is a binary file coded into ASCII or whatever character system that part of the network is using.\n\nI've been using Usenet since before Napster was even thought of. All I ever really use it for is the alt.binaries groups and the program I've been using to get binary files tells me that I'm averaging about 3.75 GBs of downloads per day lately. Thanks to Usenet I'm knee deep in just about any kind of media I could want: Kung-fu movies not released in North America and episodes of Macgyver and Red Dwarf that don't air anymore. I can watch my favourite music videos any time I want. If I miss Friends or Survivor... I'm not worried because I know I'll be able to get it from Usenet and watch it at my leisure. It's freed me from the tyranny of the television networks; but it doesn't seem to get as much press as this new-fangled peer-to-peer business. Is there a good reason why?...\n\n"On Usenet files are not stored permanently, and in many cases are only available for a week after they have been posted; you cannot 'search' for a specific file you are interested in. However, you can make a request to the appropriate newsgroup, and if another user of that group has that file and is willing to upload it, they will do so. The process is slower on Usenet than it is in peer-to-peer because it relies on human interaction. Someone will actually have to read the request and then manually begin the uploading process. The delay between making a request and actually receiving files could be days or weeks depending on a few variables. Hopefully anyone answering your request would notify you ASAP via email. However, an advantage of this process is that all the users of the newsgroup will benefit from the request because they will all see that post and those who are interested in it can download it. In this way, someone using alt.binaries.horror could discover a new horror movie they'd never heard of because someone else requested it.... \n\n"Each system has it's own deficiencies and advantages. However, after examining these applications, I find it amazing how similar a protocol from the early 80's is to a brand-spanking-new killer app. They both generally provide the same services, but are from different eras entirely; Usenet obviously patterned on traditional 'client server' models where large mainframes did all the footwork for weaker, slower terminals and P2P comes from the current distributed 'servant' model where every node is both server and client. Even more amazing is the fact that Usenet isn't even a file sharing protocol; it has only been adapted to that use by the user community. It was designed from the ground up as a discussion system and, believe it or not, is still used as such. User's just started attaching files to messages and came up with some standard subject line policies to identify attachments and it became a file sharing utility just as powerful as current P2P systems.\n\nThe biggest advantage of P2P, and the reason it gets all the attention, is general ease of use. You want something, you type it in and hit enter and that's pretty much it. Usenet will probably remain restricted to more proficient computer users because of it's slightly tougher learning curve and less intuitive and less user friendly interface."\n\n\n\nHope that answers your question :-)

Is there nothing I can do, I'm still confused!?\n\nwhat do i do?\n\nKissing Mark II?\n\nHere's the dilemma,\n\nI like this girl, we've been dating about a month..The other day, during our semester we went out. We hug & hold hands and stuff all the time, and we were really good friends b4 we got together. I gave her a hug, and asked if I could kiss her (to which she replied yes), and I did for about a second, before she pulled away & said 'this is strange'....she mentioned something about being a bit fast, & shyness.......\n\nI'm confused, now she won't talk2me..\n\nUPDATE:\n\nSaw her yesterday, she said she still liked me & wanted to be mi girlfriend, but needed time to think bout stuff, bout herself? I'm just confused, how can she want time to think about herself yet still want to go out, surely, this means she's hesitant? We've also got our prom coming up!!\n\nShe's not got anyone else (its not like that), but isnt us together doomed/wrecked?

Sounds like she needs space.  Don't let that stop you from asking her to prom though.  If she says no or says she is unsure tell her you are going to ask someone else.  Then do it.  If she can't commit to even one date, she isn't that into you.


How do you move on with today's small world internet and references checks - remember that he is the manipulative liar and I am the good employee

It is against the law for a former employer to tell a prospective employer ANY false information.  Most of the time, they are only allowed to confirm your title, pay rate, and if you quit or got fired.\n\nSo relax, find another job, then leave yours without worry.


I am always dawging yanks, they are an easy target!  They are arrogant and complacent. They reckon that they saved the world during WW2 but really they only ever saved the World in the movies (e.g. Independance Day) They are clearly more like the Nazi's then Hitler was! As far as I can see America has given the World McDonalds and Obesity, they have stolen everyone else's idea's and inventions especially Military ones, thanks for that America.  If I have offended any yanks I am happy, America is the most hated country in the world for good reason! Before all you yanks launch into abusing me take a look at the history books (especially military history) and your leader.....need I say more?

There was a similar conversation going on within yahoo 360. I, being an American, can do nothing more than agree with you on most points. I don't know that I would go as far as to say that as a whole we are worse than Hitler, but I have mentioned to several that I work with that I feel, our President Bush is modern days version of Hitler. \n\nI think, unfortunately, that most (not all) foreigners don't realize that most (not all) Americans don't like the man either! His approval rating as of yesterday was 33%. That's pretty bad. We don't like that he seems to be a bully to others and don't like that we are as a whole viewed as believing the way he does. The argument can be made that "we" re-elected the man. I understand that, although I did not. I didn't vote for him either time. I think the general thought at the time, was that he started something we better let him finish it, since (in theory) he should know what he's doing. Ha!\n\nAs far as history is concerned. I can't argue that either. But again, like every other country that is judged, and they all are, the country as a whole does not necessarily believe the same as their leaders do. I think in the beginning they put on a good "show" and are then elected into leadership. Whom ever puts on the best show wins the "prize". It sucks.\n\nMy response in the discussion to the blog was similar to what is here. I also said that I really hope that someday people just learn to accept others for what they are and what they believe. There is no right or wrong way. There is only what people believe is best for them. That includes democracy! It might be OK for us, but not for others. Our way is not necessarily the "best" way. I just wish everyone could leave everyone else alone.

What are cold sores? \n\nCold sores, also known as fever blisters, are small red blisters that crop up near the lips or on them. More rarely, they sprout on the roof of the mouth. (Some people confuse them with canker sores, which are painful crater-like sores that appear on the tongue or on the inside of the cheeks.) Despite their name, cold sores actually have nothing to do with colds; they're caused by the herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1), a close relative of the virus that causes genital herpes. \n\n\n\nHow do you get cold sores? \n\nMost children pick up the virus by sharing food with or kissing someone who has a cold sore. They can also get the infection from someone who doesn't have a visible sore but has the virus in his or her saliva. Once you contract the virus, it stays in your body for good, hiding in nerve cells near your ear. In some people, the virus lies dormant and never causes harm. In others, it periodically wakes up and triggers cold sores. Nobody knows what stirs the virus into action, but stress, fever, colds, and sunburn seem to encourage outbreaks. \n\n\n\nWhat are the symptoms? \n\nChildren don't develop cold sores immediately after the first time they catch the virus. Instead, your child may have swollen gums and a sore feeling in the mouth. A few days later, you may see a cluster of small blisters that turn into a shallow, painful sore, possibly accompanied by fever and swollen lymph glands in the neck. In a few days the sore will crust over and slowly disappear. The whole flare-up lasts about seven to ten days. \n\n\n\nWhat's the best way to treat cold sores? \n\nCold sores will go away on their own, but there are some things you can do to help your child feel better in the meantime. \n\n\n\n•To ease the pain, apply ice to the sore or give your child a mild pain reliever, such as ibuprofen or acetaminophen. (Never give aspirin to children or teenagers; it may trigger Reye's syndrome, a rare but potentially life-threatening illness.) \n•Have your child avoid salty, spicy, and sour foods, which irritate the raw nerves in the sore.  \n•Dab on a water-based zinc ointment. It helps dry out the sore so it can heal faster, and the zinc may also aid the immune system.  \n\nTo keep your child from infecting other parts of his body or giving the virus to someone else, encourage him to wash his hands regularly and keep him from picking at his sores.\n\n\n\nOne last caution: Urge your child to avoid touching his eyes when he has a cold sore. HSV-1 can cause ocular herpes, a serious eye infection. If your child develops a painful sore on his eyelid or the surface of his eye, schedule a prompt appointment with his pediatrician: Your child may need antiviral drugs to keep the infection from scarring his cornea. In rare cases, ocular herpes can weaken vision and even cause blindness.\n\n\n\nAlso, any kind of herpes virus is dangerous to newborns. If you have a newborn, keep any of your children who have a cold sore away from him until it's healed. \n\n\n\nHow can I prevent cold sores? \n\nThe first thing you can do is try to keep your child free of the virus that causes cold sores, which may be difficult, given how contagious HSV-1 is. Remember, one peck with an infected lip is all it takes to pass on the virus. If you have sores and your child doesn't, cut out kissing until you've healed. \n\n\n\nIf you are the parent of a newborn and have a cold sore, you don't need to separate yourself from your new baby. Do wash your hands frequently, though, and avoid kissing your baby until the cold sore goes away. You may consider wearing a surgical mask to cover the sore as well. Infectious disease experts do recommend that women with herpes sores on their breasts refrain from breast feeding until the sores are healed.\n\n\n\nIf your child already has the virus, the best thing you can do is keep his immune system strong by making sure he gets a healthful diet, plenty of sleep, an
