i've tried floppys and other cd's to try to get past the screen but to of no avail-if there is an answer please let me know(i'm on laptop)thanks

First of all installing an OS without a proper purchase is called "Illegal". Secondly, chances are that whoever "built" your machine used a personal copy of the OS. Back in the good old days this was fine and dandy. However, Windows now implements two security measures to ensure you are running a legitimate copy - 1. The normal installation key 2. Windows Activation. You do also mention this is a laptop - well more interesting news for laptop specific installations. An "OEM" Windows installation is a bit different when installing than a typical desktop rig. The blank screen might be as simple as the disc used for the install contained corrupt data - or - as complex as you trying to "hack" your laptop in a wrong installation sequence. Installations on laptops are very specific so pay attention - obviously your buddy wasn't. My advice to you - go out and spend the $100 for a true Windrows disc and install it using the following sequence.\n\n1. When you boot hold down F10 or F12 to get into BIOS.\n2. Make sure you boot sequence has the first boot device set to CD ROM\n3. Load the disc.\n4. Don't let anybody grab your Windows disc.\n\n--> Yea we all have to pay once in a while - this is hardly a loss considering your probably going to download the universe anyway. We ALL pay our dues. Good Luck.


Why pupils should not bring branded goods to school???

It will cause admiration or castigation from other pupils and cause them either to plan to steal,mock you or place demands to their parents for same goods and lead to wastage of learning time.


i am a foreign exchange student, and i usually pretty shy to talk with people, i don't even have lots good friends here, only some "what's up friends".\ndo you have any suggestion for me to not be shy?\nor any tips for me that i can probably read one time before i go to the school

Do self pep talks at home. Use a mirror. Say hi to people.\nSmile. break the ice by asking questions like do you have the time?or comment on something that you like about them-clothing,hair,eyes,etc... Make it a goal to greet/meet someone different everyday. You can do it!!!

im a 24yr old single mum to my 6yr old daughter, we live in a ground floor massennette, above us we have a skitzafrenic phedophile who thinks he owns me and my daughter. iv been to my council who housed him there and they deny to move him or me, where do i stand what can i do iv tried everything now im lost, if anyone here can help me with information on where i stand with my council pls pls pls e-mail me, this is my last hope. thankyou.

how do you KNOW he is a pedophile? my brother is schizophrenic and not a pedophile, but loves kids and would NEVER hurt one.\nif he has been released from jail for being a pedophile and you lived there first you should have been notified before he moved in.\nif he has been released from jail for being a pedophile and he lived there first you should have asked the agent (or land lord) if there are pedophiles living in the area.\nhas he been CONVICTED of being a pedophile or is this in your head or from neighbors talking?\npeople tend to be scared of the unknown.\n\ntell him strait up - i really don't like the way you look at me. what are you thinking when you see me?\nhe might surprise you with his answer. he might be thinking how beautiful the love between you and your daughter is. (and being that he probably doesn't have many friends - he wants that love, too; or wants to be a part of a love like that. i know my brother desperately wants a child of his own)

Don't listen to all that mularkey about Wicca being not Godly.  We have more gods than Christians.  So we are MORE godly.  \n\nWhite witchcraft is a myth.  The intention of the user makes up the direction of the spell.  I am a firm believer that you should study your faith before practicing magick.  \n\nBecause you have to know where your energy comes from before you use it.  \n\nWhen I first started out, I read a whole bunch, here are some good books to start with.

Here I am - madly in love with a guy who is 30 years older. All is great - we spend free time together and have lots of common interests (dancing, spicy food, staying up late, reading, intellectual conversations, friends, etc.). There are months at a time when we spend nights together, even though we do not live together.\n\nI would like to make it a more committed relationship and get married, however, for him it seems to be a "suicide". He tells me that all is great now, but things will change because he is so much older, and will not keep up with me. Eventually, I will leave him, and he will not be able to go through the break up (he has been divorced twice, and says they had major negative impact on his life).\n\nBut I feel, if we have to break our relationship now, I could not survive. I cannot go a day without seeing him. Never have I felt so connected to a person as with him. I don't mind his age, and know how to care of him.\n\nDoes our relationship have any future?

Are you kidding, this happens all the time. Calista Flockhart and Harrison Ford? Woody allen and Soon Yi? Tony Randall (before he died of course) and his wife (she's not famous)? There are SOOOO many examples of this. What's harder to find is a GUY in his 30 and a woman in her 60s.


Who Messured the length of the equator, and how did they prove the length was correct, or did they measure a certain distance and estimate the approxiamate length????

The first measurement of the equator was done by Eratosthenes of Samos--centuries ago.  He computed it as being roughly 25,000 miles, which is really quite accurate.\n\nEratosthenes was a hotshot at geometry.  He knew that on the spring equinox, the sun cast no shadow at noon in (as I recall it) Syene, Egypt (? on the spelling); in Samos, the shadow at the same time cast a shadow that made an angle of about 6 degrees with the top of the stick.  Using the known distance between the two places, the already accepted fact that the earth was spherical, and a little geometry, he figured out the equitoral diameter, and did a very fine job of it as well.\n\nHe later recomputed the figure, by the way, getting 18,000 miles.  Columbus repeated the calculation, long afterward, and got 19,400.  The Portuguese (the premier mapmakers of Columbus' day) had computed it as about 24,800 or so... They knew the world was round--and bigger than ol' Christopher Columbus thought...  An aside, but a fun one...


I was wondering if someone commits suicide would the go to hell? How could someone get help with it? Expecially when they have never told anyone and is afraid to tell anyone.

If someone commits suicide they will not go to Hell or any other fictional place.


...when you see an extremely obese person at a fast food place, do you think to yourself, 'What the hell are they doing here?'

Yes.\n\nI dont look that them and think "gee you guts you dont need that"\n\nI am actually worried about their health and think "gee I hope they can find something better or they will die"


I have already told about myself, and how it came to be, can you think of anything else?

The two most important things to include in an "About Us" page on your website is 1) your mission statement, and 2) your unique selling point.\n\nWhile you do need information telling your readers who you are and what you do, the most important information to convey is what sets you apart from your competition. Why should people do business with you instead of the next guy? You have to have a unique selling point to compete and thrive in a capitalist economy. There's too much competition out there.\n\nFind a unique selling point, and make that the biggest focus of your web page.\n\nBrandon O'Dell\nO'Dell Consulting\nRestaurants / Retail / Bars\nhttp://www.bodellconsulting.com

They are all based on the same concepts, ideas and stories of events.  Interpretation can be different granted.  But they all believe in one God, but in my opinion stupidly don't realise its the same God.

ssssssssssssshhhhhhhhh not so laud they are not suposed to know that yet.\nand that the trinity,is a symbolic representation of the suns life cicle ,if they find out that in reality all these religions are based on sun worship and the simbolism  in their minds have become real entities,\n\nand that this is Paganism in disguise ,it will really upset the apple cart.


Yep, you can be a walking erection at that age, can happen anytime even when you least expect it ;)


i need a new boyfriend so i can forget about my old one. i also need a christian friend(age 14-17) who will be there to talk to when i need him. for some odd reason i find it easier to talk to guys than i do girls. so if you are a guy who would like to talk then please leave you name, age and email.

You don't need a boyfriend until you are done with school and living on your and are ready to start a life. Just live a little and go to Church and find a male friend there. Eventually, he might become the man you want.


With Iran and America likely to go to war and George Bush and the Iranian president seeming on messianic missions to bring on the "end times". What do the scriptures say.

To really understand the answer for that you have to first learn about Islam.  Have you ever picked up the Holy Quran and read it?  If not http://askmuslims.com has online Holy Quran or if you want the print version let me know my e-mail address is askmuslims1@yahoo.com I hope to hear from you and others.

anger, forget it do your self in dickhead now thats a different story just remember on your, wrist cut down not accross good luck!


They say its the budget but its never been a problem before.

Any boss that yells at you should not be in the position of boss.  His yelling at you is a sign of weakness on his part and second cutting your pay because of the budget is a crock of crap.  I'll bet 99 to 1 that he's not taking a pay cut.  Chances are that if he really IS telling the truth ablut the budget, then his personna is most likely why the company is failing.  If can't treat the clients/customers with respect either, (like yourself) then you need to get out of there A.S.A.P.  BUT! before you take a hike, try to find another job you can go to, and second, when you leave, do it with grace.  Don't burn your bridges.  If you can supply him with a two week notice, do it.  But it sounds like this guy is gonna fire you as soon as he sees your resignation paper.  In either case, treat him with respect even if he doesn't show you any.  By the way, I don't know about the rest of the United States, but in Texas it's against the the law for a former employer to give a "bad reference" to a prospective employer to whom you have applied.  And lastly, no matter where you work, try NOT to have any visitors during working hours.


after 30 yrs of drinking milk, all of a sudden when i drink milk i get stomache cramps.  could i be lactose intollerant all of a sudden?

As we age, we produce fewer of the digestive enzymes that are manufactured by the body.  And, if our diet does not include food sources that supply digestive enzymes, like pineapple and papaya, then there are less enzymes to break down the proteins contained in our diet, like milk. \n\nSo, the answer to your question is yes.  The onset of digestive intollerance can seemingly occur overnight. In fact, it isn't overnight, but rather a process.\n\nSupplementing your diet with digestive enzymes can boost your ability to more completely digest milk products.


Brazil as the defending world football champion had to endure the super long south american qualifying games. It was the first time in football history that the champions had to go through qualifying games. I personally think it isn't fair, what if the country can't make it through the qualifying? A world cup without the defending champions would seem a bit strange for me, what say you?

Some people think that decision has to be with money, FIFA gets more profits if they have the defending world champion in the qualifyng games (?)\nI agree with you. It´s ridiculous to have the world champion into the qualifying. The champion don´t need to demonstrate anything else


he gets up on his days off eats ,lays on couch or recliner and sleeps all day. he never interacts with me. do you think maybe he doesn't love me?

I feel your pain, my husband thinks of sleeping as the greatest hobby. But over the years, I have just come to accept that it is one of his qwirks, and even though it bugs me, it doesn't mean that he doesn't love me, it just means he likes to sleep.


I read that a majority of Americans believe in guardian angles and miracles. So when you have a mild bit of good fortune do you believe it’s a miracle?\n\ne.g. yesterday I wrote of my car crashing into a deer that jumped out in front of me, then came an old man dressed all in white, he scooped up the dead deer and towed me several miles home. I thought that if I was an American i would have thought it a miracle, what good fortune, someone’s looking out for me, as I was miles away from anywhere and could have been stranded.\nI then realised the only reason the dear jumped out in front of me was because the man in white (PPE) scared it into the road as he was spraying insecticide.

I don't know if I believe in guardian angles but I do believe in spirit guides. I believe they are souls that chose not to incarnate into this life but agreed to watch over me and help give me a little guiding nudge in the right direction when i get off track. As for miracles I'm not sure about them either. I read the book Divine Interventions by Dan Millman and Doug Childers. It was really fascinating but I personally have never experienced any.


A humorous weekend question, answer as you wish, Thx.

this question is in regards to the New Mexio liqour industry, basically hw does one determine within the law, as it is unclear

You can't determine a BAC.  A BAC requires a breath or blood test.  Intoxication though is more subjective.  As a bartender it's expected that you know that signs of intoxication.  Basiclly is the person's speech slured?, having trouble standing?, been served numerous alcoholic drinks?, getting iritated over minor issues?, etc.  These are the type of things you must look at.  There is no set point of when a person appears intoxicated.  If they're indeed intoxicated but there's no outward signs you're ok serving UNLESS you know he's been served so much alcohol that even though he's not appearing intoxicated that he has to be intoxicated.  (ie they don't appear intoxicated, but you've served them 5 drinks within the last hour, in that case a person must assume regardless of actions that the person is at least somewhat intoxicated)


Always be yourself, and if that is not enough for someone than that someone is not enough for you


What would also happen to the value of the Euro.

Tourists comprise a very small amount of the Foreign Exchange market.  Shifts in tourist patterns have much less effect on currency prices than demand by institutional traders.  Interest rates, fiscal deficits, trade deficits, and the strength of the economy that issues the currency tend to be the factors affect currency values most (for those currencies that are allowed to float)

i have to do a project on my career for school and i need to know so physical demands that pediatric physiatrists must be able to do.

They have to be able to give physicals, that includes checking for scolyosis *spelling* and checking for any illnesses in ther reproductive organs. They also have to do the usual things like check for weezing and etc. \n\nThats about it really. The nurses do all the other stuff =P


After we split i was in so much pain and i just wanted to erase him from my memory. We broke up because we were too young and things were getting serious at that age.Theres no way i could forget him and i know deep down i didnt want to. Now that we've gotten older and matured he recently told me he still has feelings for me. He told me he loves me.Now i know i've always and never stopped loving him.It seems like somthing always brings us back together. And most of our friends say we'll end up getting married.After so many years and loving each other thru it could it be real?

I think fate is trying to tell you something.\nSometimes it's a good idea to listen to the collective wisdom of your friends.\nYou have to risk a little to get a lot.\nIs that enough cliches to convince you to go for it, girl??!


I love that show, and every week I think they might get out, but something happens to mess it all up!!

I LOVE this show too!! It can be annoying at times, but I love the twists and turns. They have awesome actors and writers!!!! According to the website below, they should escape on May 8th (I believe) I didn't want to read it because I don't want to know how it ends. It is a spoiler, so I will warn you before you read it. Hope this helps!! :)

Do you use the windows update, in your start menu? If you don't have your computer set, for automatic updates, you can do the updates, from your start menu. I have been using internet explorer for four years now, and I never have any problems with it. Make sure that you have your firewall, and anti-virus up to date, and use an anti-spyware program. I also have firefox loaded on my computer, but I don't like it as well as IE..I don't use outlook express, for my email program, I use incredimail Xe, it's a great email program, if you want to try something different..


Is it bad to date your boss? I started seeing him and pays me double so I am making good money and paid off my brand new car. I know it sounds unreal. But I still would like to date around what can I do.

Are you two in a serious relationship? If your not truly commited to eachother then go ahead and date around if he thinks ur serious then ask first, dont walk all over ur boss' feelings or u'll get fired\ngood luck


where can i get the anti-slip plastics that comes down in my presario v2000 Laptop?\n\nand, where can i get cheap 100 hardd drive, besides of ebay

try www.newegg.com or www.tigerdirect.com \n\nThey usually have the best prices.  Never buy computer components from ebay unless its a dealer.  I have heard tons of stories about people buying comp parts, and getting junk


How does this make you feel? God wants you to die.\n\n   The LORD then gave these further instructions to Moses: 'Tell the people of Israel to keep my Sabbath day, for the Sabbath is a sign of the covenant between me and you forever.  It helps you to remember that I am the LORD, who makes you holy.  Yes, keep the Sabbath day, for it is holy.  Anyone who desecrates it must die; anyone who works on that day will be cut off from the community.  Work six days only, but the seventh day must be a day of total rest.  I repeat: Because the LORD considers it a holy day, anyone who works on the Sabbath must be put to death.'  (Exodus 31:12-15 NLT)

So many bad answers from Christians on this it's fairly amusing.\n\n1. "Things/the rules have changed"\n\nResting on the sabbath is a moral precept of one's obligation to Yahweh.  If you are saying this changed, you are saying that God changes his morals, which opens up the idea of moral subjectivitiy.  There is no way around when God said "forever".  Either you are calling him a liar, or you are wrong.\n\n2.  "The law was destroyed"\n\nThen why did Jesus say he did not come to destroy the law?  Remember thar part in Matthew about "not one jot or tittle of the law"?  You are calling Jesus a liar here....not sure what your God would think of that.\n\n3.  Paul said hold no day above any other.\n\nSwell for Paul.  Unfortuantely, Jesus and Yahweh BOTH said different.  Tie goes to the deity, I would think.\n\n4.  "Christians are under grace, not the law"\n\nThen you can ignore the 10 commandments, I assume.  No?  Only the fourth one?  I see.  What part of "forever" and what Jesus said in Matthew don't Christians understand?\n\n******\n\nThose are just a few responses.  Christians love to pull the "Paul Card".  Go ahead and grab anything Paul may have said (ignoring that he often spoke on behalf of himself, not God) and use that to totally dismiss something either Yahweh or Jesus said.\n\nThe bible IS inconsistent.  But if I were to believe in it, I sure has heck would take God's "forever" dictate pretty serious, not Paul's bitter ramblings.


Try washing cars, ask your mom or you can bake cookies, cakes, muffins, make candy, etc. and sell. Even have a garage sell, it not only earns you extra cash, but it helps to clean some clutter that may have needed cleaning up. You can even get your coach to draw up some type of legitimate form for you and your team to go to corporate businesses just to aks for donations.\n\nGood luck with earning funds...


hey ppl! i need ur help... i am ver bad at mental arthmatic pls can u tell me how to do metal arthmatic and how to work things out quickly eg wen going to shops and things im 21 and i find this thing is keeping me behind alot of things... pls give useful tips, pls do not suggest maths classes im too embaressed to go!!! thanx

I'd like to tell you a couple of tricks for getting ABOUT the right answer, which is often all you need, for instance when you're buying something and want to guard against a major cashier's error.\nMultiplying two numbers: Try to simplify the problem. Say it's 15 cans of something at 39 cents a can. Well 39 is pretty close to 40, so you get 15*40=$6.00. Or if you want it exactly, 15*40=$6.00 but subtract 15 cents because you added it when you simplified. $6.00 - $0.15 = $5.85. That's a lot easier than mentally multiplying 15 by 39.\nOften there seems to be no way to simplify the problem. Like 34 * $0.57. Well see what happens if you decrease one a little and increase the other by the same percentage. Say we take 34 down to 30, that's a little more than 10% less. Then what's a little more than 10% of 57? About 7. So we add 7 to 57, and we have 30 * $.64 = $19.20. The actual answer is $19.38. Again, not too bad. Or a 3-digit number: Try $3.79 * 18. OK, lets put $3.79 up to $4.00, about a 5% increase. Then take about 5% off 18 and it's 17. $4.00 * 17 = $68.00, compared to the exact answer of $68.22. \nHow about when you have a bunch of different items in the supermarket cart and you want the approximate total? Just keep track of the dollars and remember the cents as simple fractions of a dollar. So if you have these items: $1.39, $3.75, $2.19, $7.63, you say 1 & 1/3 plus 3 & 3/4 is 5 & a little; plus 2 & a little is 7 & 1/2; plus 7 & 1/2 is 15. The actual total is $14.96. Again, not too bad, although it won't always be this close. I hope you can use these. It gets easier with practice.


Two days ago this man comes to my work pushing a baby stroller, this woman by his side (wife), she had her head covered.  Muslam for sure, he asked about a black diamond she wanted and he said she doesn't speak english so that's why I'm asking.  It's expensive, he said, she wants it but she's not getting it.  He laughed and looked at her, he looked old and she looked young.  I felt my stomach turn in anger.  Do you understand my emotions at that moment.  I felt like he went to his third world country to get a woman and bring her to the United States to clean, cook, give him children and sex.

Women will stop being used when we take our voices to the ballot box and elect our own people instead of men who couldn't give too shites about our welfare or rights. Vote Clinton 2008.

I exercise every morning before work and I try to only bring healthy food and avoid the snack machines. But every time I got into the grocery store, I end up buying chocolate bars (not candy bars eg Mars, but bars of chocolate), and before Easter it was the Cadbury cream eggs. I can't seem to get through the day without some sort of junk food. Also, I find that I have to keep eating all day at work. I'm not really hungry, just have to keep eating!!! Help!!!

don't let it be available to you, hide it or let someone hide it.  that would probably help, i know that when i have junk food around i will keep eating it, but if i don't then i dont complain.....


There is so much in the media regarding the above about teachers being involved with their students, pedifiles, sexual predators, etc. Has this always been such a problem or is it actually getting worse? Why does TV "exploit" the female body so much? Can government do something about this? Can parents "stand up" and do something about this?

The world is so sexually obsessed because, to be perfectly honest, SEX SELLS!!! I think there has always been adults who were messing w/ children. But now, because of the times we live in, it is brought more to the light. Plus, there is an imbalance in this world now. It could be that more people are getting away from God (whatever their spiritual belief is) and engaging in lude acts. Not enough parents hug their children or spend time with them and so they get the attention from other sources. Government isn't going to do crap about the exploitation of the female body. They are too busy having shooting accidents and encouraging this bullshit war we are in. Plus, there is the issue of censorship and freedom or expression. As for parents, what are they going to do? They watch the same exploitative shows their kids watch. Alot of the parents of this generation are young uneducated children who became parents too soon.


i liked it alot,i would watch that movie on replay for yrs. lol


I am talking about interactive viral web sites for consumer brands, web games, web apps, etc.  I am interested in being involved with this type of marketing campaign though I would like to stay on the corporate or client side of marketing.  So, I am wondering what type of position I need to go after in order to commision this type of creative and work on such high visibility integrated marketing campaigns.

Don't mess with "gate keepers".  Develop a one-page summary of your proposal; inlcude one additional page with a thumbnail of the story board.\n\nPresent it directly to the owner, president, CEO.  \n\nAlternative marketing works -- but anyone but the owner, president, CEO will more than likely resist change in marketing direction on viral web sites, etc.\n\nI love the idea.

Do you think it's fun?  What are your feelings about videogames that have a war setting?

I don't play any war games or watch war movies.  I was there, I don't need those memories stirred up.\n\nAs a matter of fact, just trying to help people understand the military and military service on Yahoo Answers causes  me enough discomfort.  I only do it because it is so very important for especially young people to be able to get answers to their questions.


I've been dating a guy off and on for about 5 yrs. I want a commitment, he says he's not ready because of school (college) and life in general. He rarely if ever goes out with other girls (i've checked). We are good friends and have out of control chemistry.\n  It's been a yr since i've seen him and we're supposed to go out next week. So, how long can a guy keep this sort of thing up? Friends w/benifits forever? Does he care, but wants to get his life together before commiting? I know guys can date without serious feeling for a long time, but isn't this getting a little rediculous. HELP!

If he isn't ready, then he isn't ready. I think if you pin all ur hopes on him, it's not very wise. Is he is saying a NO to u, or is he saying "I don't know". Does he have feelings for you...is it love, or lust? You know best. \nEitherways, he is not *moving forward* with u, and that's a strong signal. \n\nI would advise you to have a really honest talk with him and ask him what he REALLY thinks and feels. Tell him you are not judging him, tell him you truly wanna hear what he is going through, and to lay it all on the table, so you can make an informed decision. If he cares about you and your life, and your own future, am sure he should be ready to let you know honestly what is going on in his mind. \n\nI would say keep him as a friend (strictly) and date other people who would be willing to commit. I know it might be hard esp. if you have developed strong feelings and attachment with him. It's for you and him to decide whether you both can be friends and date other people, if you both wish. \n\nAnother thing is, you must have some discipline in order for things to move forward. If u decide to be strictly friends, then make sure you do that. If you give in, this situation might continue for a long, long time. \n\nI think he needs to miss u a lil bit, inorder to really know what he wants. Reduce ur talks, go date other people, and see where it goes after that. That's my 2 cents on this.

If it has infinitely many solutions, the two lines are actually the same line (think of them as one right on top of another).\n\nWhen you try to solve them algebraically, in both cases the x and y (or whatever two variables are used ) will both cancel out.  If there is no solution, you will end up with two unequal numbers, such as 0 = 3.  If there are infinitely many, you will end up with two equal numbers, such as 6 = 6.

okay, my boss made me have a bad day! Any one can brighten it with some good laughs, (jokes, funny stories) Anything, helps! Thanks. Best one get 10pts!

here's a joke: ur boss!\n\nknock knock\nwho's there\nur boss\nur boss who\nexactly!!\nWhen you take a long time, you're slow.  \nWhen your boss takes a long time, he's thorough.  \n\nWhen you don't do it, you're lazy.  \nWhen your boss doesn't do it, he's too busy.  \n\nWhen you make a mistake, you're an idiot.  \nWhen your boss makes a mistake, he's only human.  \n\nWhen doing something without being told, you're overstepping your authority.  \nWhen your boss does the same thing, that's initiative. \n\nWhen you take a stand, you're being bull-headed.  \nWhen your boss does it, he's being firm.  \n\nWhen you overlooked a rule of etiquette, you're being rude.  \nWhen your boss skips a few rules, he's being original. \n\nWhen you please your boss, you're apple polishing.  \nWhen your boss pleases his boss, he's being co-operative.  \n\nWhen you're out of the office, you're wandering around.  \nWhen your boss is out of the office, he's on business. \n\nWhen you're on a day off sick, you're always sick.  \nWhen your boss is a day off sick, he must be very ill.  \n\nWhen you apply for vacation, you must be going for an interview.  \nWhen your boss applies for vacation, it's because he's \noverworked.\n  \nA farmer goes out one day and buys a brand new stud rooster for his chicken coop. The rooster struts over to the old rooster and says, "OK, old fart, time to retire." \n\nThe old rooster replies, "Come on, you can't handle ALL these chickens. Look what it's done to me. Can't you just let me have the two old hens over in the corner?" \n\nThe young rooster says, "Beat it! You're washed up and I'm taking over." \n\nThe old rooster says "I'll tell you what, young stud, I'll race you around the farmhouse. Whoever wins gets exclusive domain over the entire chicken coop." \n\nThe young rooster laughs, "You know you don't stand a chance old man, so just to be fair, I'll give you a head start." \n\nThe old rooster takes off running. About 15 seconds later the young rooster takes off after him. They round the front of the farmhouse and the young rooster has closed the gap. He's already about 5 inches behind the old rooster and gaining fast. \n\nThe farmer, meanwhile, is sitting on the front porch when he sees the roosters running by, one right behind the other. He grabs his shotgun and BOOM! -- he blows the young rooster to bits. \n\nThe farmer sadly shakes his head, "Damn...third gay rooster I've bought this month." \n\nThe National Poetry Contest had come down to two, a Yale graduate and a redneck from Texas. They were given a word, then allowed two minutes to study the word and come up with a poem that contained the word.

He stepped to the microphone and said: \n\nSlowly across the desert sand \nTrekked a lonely caravan; \nMen on camels, two by two \nDestination Timbuktu. \n\nThe crowd went crazy! No way could the redneck top that, they thought. The redneck calmly made his way to the microphone and recited: \n\nMe and Tim a huntin’ went. \nMet three whores in a pop up tent. \nThey was three, and we was two, \nSo I bucked one, and Timbuktu. \n\n\n\n\nThere were three little old ladies sitting on a park bench having a quiet conversation when a flasher approached from across the park.

What assistance was provided by the local authority to the parents and injured

Five years after the M40 minibus disaster which killed 12 pupils and a teacher, The Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents warned today that still not enough is being done to protect children on school transport. \n\nThe victims from Hagley RC High School died in the collision with a lorry on the hard shoulder of the M40 on November 18, 1993. \n\nA four-point action plan from RoSPA calls for: \n\nA date when the wearing of seatbelts on school minibuses and coaches becomes compulsory, \n\nThe driving hours of volunteers to be regulated \nEscorts on school transport to ensure children wear seatbelts, are properly supervised and do not distract drivers,\n \nAll minibus drivers to take a recognised test, rather than just new drivers Dave Rogers, RoSPA Road Safety Adviser said: "I regularly receive calls from parents who are worried about the state of school minibuses and coaches. They are particularly concerned about whether seatbelts come up to scratch and the general safety of older vehicles. \n\n"Seatbelts in minibuses - and coaches - now have to be checked under the MoT test but it is still not compulsory for them to be worn. \n\n"RoSPA has developed a minibus test which addresses general safety checks on vehicles, and also demonstrates how a minibus will handle very differently to an ordinary car. That is why we believe it is vital that all volunteer drivers should take a special minibus test, not just new drivers. \n\n"There is still nothing to stop volunteers driving a party of school children long distances after they have spent a full day at work and may already be tired. \n\n"RoSPA believes escorts have an important role to play in safety on school transport. This is one of the key issues raised in the code of practice which we have developed on minibus safety."


is there any fun tricks i can use, or any tips that can help?

Eat things you like.  If you don't like tofu, don't eat it.  Also, find good substitutes.  I love ice cream, so whenever I crave it, I have a non-fat yogurt instead.  Okay, it's not the same, but it satisfys the sweet.


There are lot of good players in India but they cannot reach to that level, Why?


I come from a super-conservative religious background.  I'm in a committed relationship and my girlfriend has moved in with me.  It's been great for the both of us so far, but how do I tell the 'rents?  I hate to lie to them, but I don't think they would understand and they would feel resentful towards both of us.  Jesus...I'm 25.  You'd think it wouldn't matter.

You could always marry her if you do really like her?


i don't like santa claus, or the easter bunny. i think whoever thought these characters up, was not thinking of the true meaning of these important dates. to me, the world is giving santa claus the glory for Christmas, and not Jesus, who deserves it. i don't want to come down on people that do suggest santa to their kids, but i just think they need to know the true meaning. \nalso, have you ever thought about this.... i used to abbreviate Christmas with x-mas, but someone once told me that "that was crossing out Christ in Christmas", then it really made sense to me, so i don't abbreviate it anymore. \nif you are athiest, & you read this.... you shouldn't celebrate Christmas if you don't believe in God, Jesus... because, it's about Them, not shopping, trees, decorations, etc. i think it's way over commercialized, & the world tends to skip Thanksgiving. we should all be more thankful for our blessings, rather than worrying what we're going to buy, get, or how much money we plan to spend.

We celebrate Christmas and include both Santa and Jesus. We have always had a star on top our tree to represent the Star of Bethlehem. We have a nativity set that is the first item set up and the last one taken down for Christmas. We discuss the true meaning of Christmas throughout the season, but we still let our daughter, and now our grand-daughter enjoy Santa Claus. We told our daughter and now our grand-daughter that Santa brings gifts just as the 3 Wise Men brought gifts to Jesus. On Christmas Eve we always read the First Christmas and also Twas The Night Before Christmas. We celebrate a combination the two, making sure the true meaning of Christmas in always present in our home and in our hearts. We NEVER skip Thanksgiving! We always make sure we are thankful for each and every blessing we receive. Each night before bed we always talk about our blessings for the day. We raised our daughter and she is raising her daughter to know that we receive little gifts from the Lord each day........Birds singing, Rainbows, Laughing Children, Hugs and Kisses from the ones we love, Beautiful flowers, etc. We each tell at least one "special gift" that we received each day. It helps us to remember the little things and makes each day a gift.


What steps would you follow to find the distance of point P(3,8) from the line that passes through points Q(-2,5) and R(6,3).

Step 1:  Find the equation of the line that passes through Q and R.  Do this by calculating the slope, and then finding the appropriate intercept value.  y = mx + b.\nYou should get: y = (-1/4)x + 9/2.\n\nStep 2: Find the equation of the line that passes through P and the line QR at a 90-degree angle.  Do this by making the slope of this equation the negative reciprocal of the slope of the other equation.  (So, the slope of this equation will be -1/m.)  Then find the intercept value by plugging in the x and y values of P.\nYou should get: y = 4x + 4\n\nStep 3:  Find the intersection of these two lines.  Do this by for y.\nYou get: 4x + 4 = (-1/4)x + 9/2.\nSolve for x.\nx= 2/17.\nThen find y using this value of x (using the equation of either line).\ny = 4(2/17) + 4 = 8/17 + 4 = 76/17.\nSo the point of intersection is (2/17, 76/17).\n\nStep 4: Find the distance between P and (2/17, 76/17).\nJust use this formula:\ndistance = squareroot((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2),\nwhere x1 is the x-coordinate of P and x2 is the x-coordinate of (2/17, 76/17).\nYou should get distance = 12.8544 approximately.


Speaking in front of people doesn't bother me. In fact, when I was in high school, I would trade places with my twin sister to do her speeches in speech class because she was always afraid to do them.


My taste for this drug .. i used it with my cancers in 98 and 02 and can't seem to l;eave it alone ..DESPERATE

You are not physically addicted to it--so there is no reason for a rehab.  You are mentally addicted to the stimulant effects, the best thing to do is to ween yourself off of it slowly.  Cut back the amount of times you smoke during the day. It will be a slow process but in a matter of months you should ween yourself of totally.  Also find some form of exercise to replace the feeling.


there's this one guy i like, and we are always talking about it and stuff, not like obsessivly, but he also asks like how i would want to do it, so does this mean he's interested in me? i kno it seems stupid to ask this, but i wanna kno!


These few years tryed the cure from BAUERPHARM but afraid that i-ll be resistant to it doctor give me another from SHERING, will see how it works.I have 2 healthy children, and me but this have no helth problems,I am 30 and maryed, live in Macedonia(Europe)Pleace, tell me something different than the doctor keep telling me the some things, and making the  tests all the time, still candida keeps coming back, I AM DESPERATE!!!We are yong and still, with this problem, we cant have normal sex life. So doctors from all around the world, counting on you.

Oh dear!  You really think doctors are using Yahoo Answers?!  You've got more problems than vaginal problems.  Seriously, please see your doctor.  See a different doctor for a second opinion, but DO NOT SEEK MEDICAL ADVICE FROM HERE!


Everyone around me is associated with something negative from my childhood.  I want to just move away and forget about them, but right now I need the very little help that I recieve from them.  Does anyone else resent their parents?  Personal experiences??  Why do some people have a life that is 10x harder than everyone else's?  It never seems to get any better!  I see myself as a good person, but nothing good ever happens to me.

Everyone is unique in their own ways, fashions, and forms. We all have our story, none is alike. Why some people have a more difficult life than others, I cannot truly answer correctly other than saying that Our GOD works in mysterious ways and will never give us a cross we cannot bear. \n      You say that everyone around you is associated with something negative from your past. Facing your past is one step to turning bad things into positive things. You will always have bad things happen to you and around you, you will then have several different paths you can take on your journey through life. The way you let the negative affect you will directly affect what path you will take. Learn from the experience, try to find a way to turn it positive. Remember where there is an action, there is always a equal and opposite reaction. Keep your chin up. Trust me worrying about it doesn't help, live your life to the fullest. \n      Remember God is with you and will help you, pray and ask Him to give you guidance through your troubles.

when making the water colder, I will have to use an outdoor themometer,crushed ice, and table salt

Salt, NaCl, turns into Na+ and Cl- ions in water.\n\nThe ions changes the equilbrium of H2O melting and freezing.\nLiquid water is block by the ions, so it has a harder time freezing back onto the ice. Since the ions doenst slow down\nthe melting of ice, but slows down the freeze of water.\nThe ice now melts at below 0 degree.\n\nSo a normal ice water will be at zero degree.\nBut a salt put on the ice/water will melt more of the ice at a lower temp., about 7-10 degree colder, depenting on the ammount of salt and ice avalibale.


Should there be a separate Y! Answers just for our Christian brothers and sisters? That way they can answer "God made it that way" to every single question on their board, leaving this board free to accept sensible answers. What do you think?

It's a good idea, but they wouldn't follow it. That's why I had this great idea of the gov't enforcing religion... it'd be so awesome. x3


I am currently doing a working paper to propose land usage for producing lamb and cows commercially. Need to know more details on modern techniques for breeding, feeding and land sections for that matter.I am doing the project in Malaysia.

Have you seen this yet?\nhttp://www.brianmay.com/brian/brianssb/brianssb.html\n\nAI Controversy...

I've seen this too and there is not really a controversy. Mostly this is what happened things get turned, mostly you can believe Brian on his word. But he sometimes is a bit grumpy so this reaction is known from him and nothing special. And he gets it right on his weblog so I don't really see the problem.

In a cricket match one team needs 7 runs to win ....just 2 balls remaining....both players are at 94 runs.......in the end ..both players scored 100...n they win the match.......tell me how ..this Question was asked in infosys.....>>>before giving ans...just think about ur answer...coz thr cant be any over change...just think thn give the answer

Batsman A faces the second last delivery. He hits the ball for a six, which is saved by the fielder in the deep. The fielder is just to lazy to stop the ball by his hand, and stops by his hat. Batsman A has already ran a run, and is on the opposite side. The batsman gets 6 runs, 1 he ran, 5 for penalty! Batsman A completes century. Now Batsman B hits a six on the last ball, thereby making his century and winning the match.\n\nNow I want to ask you-who do you think will get the man of the match?


details about the compressor,evaporator,condenser,and metering device is what i am looking for.  I also would like to know what roles saturation, subcooling, and superheat play in the system. thank you

You know... He was right when he said "White people are going to freak out when they find out what skeet really means... 'Oh my god, what have we done!'"\nSkeet; "Skeet" is actually a form of birth control practiced by the African-American tribes of North America near the beginning of the 21st Centruy. Visionaries of the time (such as Lil Jon and Nelly) recognized the inevitable and everpresent danger of overpopulation in their land and decided to take action. They discovered an ancient form of birth control used by their ancestors that involved "pulling out and shooting" (much like skeet shooting) during sexual intercourse, as to not impregnate the female, or "biatch". The visionaries spread the word the only way they knew how: rap music. People would listen to the songs of the visionaries during ritual smoking ceremonies and chant "skeet skeet skeet!". Every tribe of their kind in the land listened to rap music and the idea of skeeting quickly gained in popularity. Soon, the entire African-American tribe had done its part to offset the effects of overpopulation through generations of skeeting on the women that they did not wish to impregnate. However, the other tribes of the land (most notabley, the Whites and Mexicans) did not support the "Skeet Movement". They continued to grow in number until the Whites eventually ate the Mexicans. The Whites, however, refused to eat the African-Americans for fear of sickle cell anemia, so they all got on a very large boat and went back to England.\n\nDave Chappelle Rocks!

oh it must be true then. nobody ever lies on TV. hee haw.


for example, english football teams play in several leagues in England and Europe as well

All teams play in their domestic (home country) leagues. Teams finishing in the top 2, 3 or 4 places (depending on previous success) qualify for the UEFA Champions League. Teams from the major European countries (Spain, Italy, England, Germany) usually have three of four qualifiers. It is called the 'Champions League' because until 1993 a team had to win the national championship to qualify. Alas, this is no longer a requirement and teams can become 'Champions of Europe' without winning their own domestic league first.\nTeams from less succesful nations (e.g. Scotland, Belgium, Switzerland) may only have one or two qualifiers, and some countries with no proven history of success, and newcomers (Latvia, Estonia, Luxembourg) enter their Champions into a qualifying tournament.\nA consolation prize for teams finishing below the Champions League Qualification is the UEFA Cup. Teams placed from 3rd to as low as 6th place, plus the domestic knock-out cup winners, compete in this competition. The confusion for some is that some early eliminated teams from the Champions League are also put into the draw for this competition.\nMost countries in Europe have at least one professional domestic league (in England, the FA Carling Premiership; in Spain the Liga; in Germany the Bundesliga and in Italy the Serie A) and then depending on the numbers of registered players in a country several professional leagues below this one. In England there are a further three professional leagues in a tier system before amateur leagues.


theres this guy i have liked for a while, however he said we were just friends. Then one night we were intimate and ever since then have occassionally been together. Im confused, does he like me or just want me for "fun"? Am i being used?

ask yourself :\nDoes he ring me?\nEverytime we see each other now do we have sex?\nDoes he hold your hand in public?\nDoes his friends know about the two of you as a couple?\nWhen you ring him Is he always busy?\nDo you see each other often?

I am in the States for work purpose and have not converted my home country licence to the Illinois one. So I have a driving licence .. just not an Illinois one where I am driving now.

If you are a foreign national, driving in America with a "license" from another country, it will be recognized by any state in our great country. If you have moved to the USA from another country, you have 30 days to obtain an american driving permit, issued from the state you live in. But this only if you plan on NOT returning to your country of origin. Also, you must return your home country for a minimum of 7 days every 90-120 days (not exactly sure of the time requirement; I have not dealt with any issues like this in a long time).\n\nIf you do not have a license from another country, and are driving in Illinois with no valid learner's permit, or operator's license, you will be arrested for driving without a license, once you are pulled over and it is discovered as such. Typically, this is solved with just a fine - the specific amount I can't tell you - and a court appearance. \n\nTip: IF the second paragraph is true, drive very, very carefully, and do not exceed the speed limit, which the signs don't say but speed limits in the USA are in MPH, not Kph.\n\nHope that helps you.

What are the customes with passover in todays society?

Yes. I am jewish and I celebrate passover. I may not wear a yamakah on my head every day, but I am not eating break this whole week. The problem with outsiders is that don't understand or know that are different types of jews due to their region (sephardics, oshkanazi, hasidics, etc)\n\nlike in my coulture (and family traditions) we will not eat bread of any kind and we will go to temple only on the first day.

Just becoz some freaks blew up the tein towers in the name of religion it doesn mean we are bad....the world has always looked at us with suspicion and mistrust..why????even some qshere ae outrageous...If this is so even we can hate every american for what they did to iraq...people were happier and mor epeaceful during saddams rule and wo the heck gave u the right to set the worl"right" as u say????answer?!!!

People have been brainwashed to think Muslims are bad. Only if those people could see past the cloak of media, then they'd know what's up, but unfortunately, they can't. It's not a certain religion, race, or group that's bad; it's an individual(s) who did bad thing(s). It's just a cruel world out there, dude, a cruel world. Some people just can't let others live in peace.

like there's someone really reserved for you...and if you believe, why?

Yes I believe in soulmates. there is certainly someone who is definately made for you. HE created everything in two's which are complimentary, one is the cause of existence for the other. so be optimistic your soulmate is out there somewhere searching for you same as you are.


ok. so (27^4n)(3^2n-1) = 3^x.\nyou should notice that 27 is equal to 3^3. (3*3=9, 9*3=27)\nso you can rewrite 27 as 3^3.\n\n[(3^3)^4n](3^2n-1)=3^x\nso the 3 and 4n multiply and you get\n(3^12n)(3^2n-1) = 3^x\nnow you can add the exponents of the left side, since the base is the same and multiplication means add bases. so\n\n3^(12n+2n-1) = 3^x\n3^(14n-1) = 3^x.\n\nso if u take log (base 3) of both sides, you get\n14n-1 = x. (if you dont wanna think about logs, you can just say that since the bases are the same, and theyre equal, the exponents HAVE to be the same so 14n-1 = x.\n\nso the answer is B.\n\nhope this helped. let me know if you need more help

I like the morning because I wake with a clear head, I don't remember dreams. I like to think today will be a really good day, but that usually only lasts so long.

I remember my dreams, almost always. But one of the first things I think about is, the weather outside, is it cold or warm, sunny or rainy, then I think coffee. Mornings are my favorite time, especially really early , I like to wake up, watch the sunrise, if the weather allows it, have coffee, take shower, and then have more coffee and sit down to watch the x-files. The only thing that sucks about the mornings is not waking up next to someone, that kinda sucks.

The origins of algebra can be traced to the ancient Babylonians, who developed an advanced arithmetical system with which they were able to do calculations in an algebraic fashion. With the use of this system they were able to apply formulae and calculate solutions for unknown values for a class of problems typically solved today by using linear equations, quadratic equations, and indeterminate linear equations. By contrast, most Egyptians of this era, and most Indian, Greek and Chinese mathematicians in the first millennium BC usually solved such equations by geometric methods, such as those described in the Moscow and Rhind Mathematical Papyri, Sulba Sutras, Euclid's Elements, and The Nine Chapters on the Mathematical Art. This geometric work of the Greeks, typified in the Elements provided the framework for generalizing formulae beyond the solution of particular problems into more general systems of stating and solving equations.\n\nIndian mathematicians proceeded to write treatises on algebraic means of solving equations from the end of the first millennium BC, followed by Hellenistic mathematicians from the early first millennium AD. Important algebraic works from this general era include the Bakhshali Manuscript, the works of Hero of Alexandria, the Arithmetica of Diophantus, the Aryabhatiya of Aryabhata, and the Brahma Sputa Siddhanta of Brahmagupta.\n\nThe word "algebra" is named after the Arabic word "al-jabr" from the title of the book al-Kitāb al-muḫtaṣar fī ḥisāb al-ğabr wa-l-muqābala, meaning The book of Summary Concerning Calculating by Transposition and Reduction, a book written by Persian mathematician Muḥammad ibn Mūsā al-Ḵwārizmī in 820. The word al-jabr means "reunion". Al-Khwarizmi is often considered the "father of algebra" (though that title is also given to Diophantus), as much of his works on reduction are still in use today. Another Persian mathematician Omar Khayyam developed algebraic geometry and found the general geometric solution of the cubic equation. Indian mathematician Bhaskara and Chinese mathematician Zhu Shijie solved cubic, quartic (biquadratic) and higher-order polynomial equations.\n\nAnother key event in the further development of algebra was the general algebraic solution of the cubic and quartic equations, developed in the mid-16th century. The idea of a determinant was developed by Japanese mathematician Kowa Seki in the 17th century, followed by Gottfried Leibniz ten years later, for the purpose of solving systems of simultaneous linear equations using matrices. Gabriel Cramer also did some work on matrices and determinants in the 18th century. Abstract algebra was developed in the 19th century, initially focusing on what is now called Galois theory, and on constructibility issues.\n\nThe stages of the development of symbolic algebra are roughly as follows:\nRhetorical algebra, which was developed by the Babylonians and remained dominant up to the 16th century;\nGeometric constructive algebra, which was emphasised by the Vedic Indian and classical Greek mathematicians;\nSyncopated algebra, as developed by Diophantus and in the Bakhshali Manuscript; and\nSymbolic algebra, which sees its culmination in the work of Leibniz.\n \nCover of the 1621 edition of Diophantus' Arithmetica, translated into Latin by Claude Gaspard Bachet de Méziriac.\n\nA timeline of key algebraic developments are as follows:\nCirca 1800 BC: The Old Babylonian Strassburg tablet seeks the solution of a quadratic elliptic equation.\nCirca 1600 BC: The Plimpton 322 tablet gives a table of Pythagorean triples in Babylonian Cuneiform script.\nCirca 800 BC: Indian mathematician Baudhayana, in his Baudhayana Sulba Sutra, discovers Pythagorean triples algebraically, finds geometric solutions of linear equations and quadratic equations of the forms ax2 = c and ax2 + bx = c, and finds two sets of positive integral solutions to a set of simultaneous Diopha

I have asked most people where they download their music from, but they sent me to limewire.com, bearshare.com, and freebiedrop.com. I have tried all these places, but it just doesn't work for me. Can someone please help me!!!!!!!!

go get limwire or frostwire.\n\neither one will allow you to download anything in the universe.\n\nTry frostwire its faster \n\ngood luck..\nstef


Wouldn't we be smarter if we could exercise our brain muscles?

maybe because muscles expand and contract and if you worked it out too much your skull would crack

No, J# is not the same as standard Sun Java; problems compiling conformant Java code under J# are not at all uncommon.\n\nBut I don't think that is your problem here. It looks like you are using the JavaScript compiler, not the Java compiler. Java and JavaScript are not the same thing at all!\n\nYou should download the latest Java developer's kit from http://java.sun.com and use the "javac" command contained therein to compile your Java code.

Just wondering if anyone is looking at a good penny stock  company profile. Was doing some reasearch on an itelligent way to invest my tax return and DOUBLE IT in 6-8 months.

Don't invesst in penny stocks. If you read any investment book, all will tell you to avoid these stocks. They are worthless. Instead of placing money in these, invest in a small cap corporation that has strong growth potential. Anyone can invest in a company, but it's those who research the company and know everything about them that make the money.


who monthly had tantrums of rage, cussed you & his wife who works there part time, said you were stupid, yelled so loud the next office heard, blamed you for whatever went wrong? The first year was fine, the second year the above incidents have occured, they seem to be getting more intense. He takes some kind of psych meds.  Yesterday it was worse, he even kicked the student's desk in the front office. The student needs the job. Final exams begin in June, followed by his graduation.

Go to his boss!!!  Having mental issues is not an excuse for his actions.  If he doesn't 'have a superior' ask to speak with a judge because they would know what to do and who can handle it.\n\nGood luck!

With so many indegenous cultures out in Latin America, is there any proof that Mayans and Aztecs are related in any way? Or in that case, the Incas?

Don't know about "proof", but most peoples inter-marry/breed to increase the size of their gene pool. It is hard to believe that any of these cultures remained completely isolated.


I'm the first child, and both of my parents are bipolar. so does that automatically mean that i am too? i have some of the symptoms, but my parents and a school councelor said that its just cuz i'm a teen that i have some of the symptoms for it. Well, i really have a lot of the symptoms, and im 16 by the way....

All of the kids have a chance of getting it.\nIf you have symptoms just keep an eye on yourself,\nor ask a friend to tell you (or your school counselor)\nif they think you're showing signs more strongly.\n\nNow, teenagers do have mood swings due to the changes on hormones, that's normal. But just keep an eye out for really strong or rapid changes in mood, or extremes in mood.(suicidal thoughts, for instance, means a Red Alert.)

I attended an inspiring Christian meeting although I am not much of a believer. I would really like to know about those people who were once like me...

My husband believed as a child, lost his adoptive father and then decided their must not be a God.  He was eleven.\n\nAt age 31, he went to jail for a crime he says he did not commit.  He sat and looked at his life, the steps that got him where he was.  Whether he committed the crime or not he had done some other pretty heinous things.  He realized most of this started when he stopped believing.  He started to read the bible again and asked God to show him what to do with this mess he called his life.  He repented and accepted Jesus again and while he still struggles, he has been freed from the accusations mostly, and lives a better life now.  It was not a miracle, a lightning bolt, or a burning bush.  It was God wanting him to turn his face back to Him.  He will come to you in many ways, just keep asking and talking and loving Him and your neighbor as yourself.  Blessings.


While there are differences in perception of God all three claim that their God is the God of Abraham.  Does this mean that in reality all three Western religions worship the same God?

Yes, only the doctrines differ slightly. Some muslims refer to Jewish and Christian peoples as "infidels", because muslims say that the Jewish and Christian peoples altered the work of God, by altering the bible from it's original form. Some Jewish people say that they are God's chosen people, while some Christians would argue that the Jewish people turned their backs on God when they called for the crucifiction of the Christ. But, that is all arguable and since I wasn't there, I will stay out of it.\nBut in summary; yes, they all worship the same God. Each had a prophet. Jewish-Moses. Christians-Jesus. Islam-Muhammed.

I make my 3yr old son vist his dad on a week on week off basis, what do you think?

I think you should also ask someone you respect, like a pastor, older freind, or counsolor. I personaly think it is good he gets to visit his dad. When he becomes older, 8+, you should ask weather he wants to see his dad. It's not right to force a child to see a parent they don't want to see.

I was just hired with Wal-Mart and was wondering if anyone has had a negative experience working there.

Yeah! I was hired for eight dollars an hour. I quit the same day! My friend works in the bakery there and she loves it!I feel that I have too much education to only make eight dollars. However, I love shopping there! I just finished a 14 page research paper on Wal-Mart and its contribution to poverty among employees, and community. I hope its not a career your looking for, there was bad news! See for yourself, go to www.wakeupwalmart.com, or www.walmartsucks.com  Good Luck!


As most know Neil Young has released a song called "impeach the President", it will be a million seller soon. He has admited he made a very big mistake when he voted for Bu$h. It takes a real man to admit to a big mistake in life. Neil Young is a real man and he respects the truth. I will buy it as soon as it comes out. I also am very Happy that Oprah and Bono will be backing Hillary.


do they mean it.....do they feel powerful when they put girls down.....? er somthen?? cuz i don't think they relize how much that hurts somone...? =[

It's a reflection of his own insecurity.  You must seem like an easy target, he's an emotional bully who is just insecure in who he is.


If you fart once a day lasting 1 second that works out to 8 hours in a lifetime - is there a way to conjure it all at once?\n\nThink how great it would be for that meeting or elevator!

1 second with my husband is enough to gag a maggot.....I can't imagine 8 hours at once!


I have dependent VISA of Japan for two years.

IF you are a resident of Japan , which seems to be your case, YES you can apply there but beware that it may be more difficult to obtain your visa there... It is very common that a visa officer denies an application because he is not familiar with the conditions in your country of origin ,hence, he is not able to make a decision in your case...\n\nIt depends a lot on what citizenship you hold...


I did it is an excellent book, give it a read.


Ive heard its a sin to be homosexual. Im bi, is this true?

only god knows hun...I guess we will find out when we go before him....we meaning me as well I am a  lizzy lol


I work for a charity in Margate Kent, that provides housing and support for young men aged 16-25. I'm looking to outsource team building days for our clients and need to find some suitable providers.

You could try the local YMCA or a Citizens Advice Vureau will point you in the right direction I am sure.  One cother source comes to mind, and that is your local Council Social Department.  They may be able to give you further information.  Failing that, there is always the net for you to source on.\n\nGood luck with your project and I hope this helps.\n\nCorinne

Once i got that anus massage with tongue, I cannot stop cuming. Whats wrong with me?:((

Sweetie, why do you have two unhappy faces, and you think that something is wrong with you?? If that is what you enjoy, then go with it..You might see from one of my questions that I absolutely love to slip my tongue in there!\n\nIt is so exciting to watch a woman swirm with enjoyment when I am doing that to her :) Mainly because it is so BAD :P Bad in a good way!!


I;m so leary of just using any protection but I know there are good ones out there.

Well, you have the new Beta Windows Defender, if you are not anti-Microsoft or typically the top two I believe are Ad-Aware Se Plus from LavaSoft or Spybot Search and Destroy.


Oh damn I am so old. I remember just the other day I was watching different strokes and saying " whatcha talking bout Willis " I remember Punky Brewster, Alf, Airwolf, The Wonder Years, Silver Spoons, Facts of Life, and Doogie Howser MD.

Ah, the good old days, like crap..........\n\nThe Good Old Days:   C.1969\n\nBring back the good old days again, when we were young and free, \nWhen we were fit and felt no pain, when we were twenty-three. \nWe laughed all day, and drank all night, from dusk until day-break, \nWith ten ‘ P’ fags, and ten ‘ P’ beer, we lived on sirloin steak.\n\nNo guns, no bombs, no radios, no need a three foot stick, \nNo riot gear, no night-time fear; just don’t go down the ‘  Wick’.  \nWhen Magistrates were strong but fair, like old McElligott, \nWhen ‘ No Comment’  was never heard, and villains said ‘  Fair Cop’.\n\nBut memory, it plays sad tricks, the hurt it does erase, \nIt numbs the mind; it makes one blind, and leaves us only praise.  \nBut think you of the cold and damp, the hunger-pain and stomach cramp, \nThe dying child, the dirty room, the poverty, the dismal gloom.  \nThe rasping cough, the winter  smog, bodies unburied, graves undug.\nThe rubbish heaps, streets upswept, I swear to God, I often wept.\n\nFor truth is times were seldom good, no happiness and little food. \nSo don’t  say you now how times are tough, no overtime, pay’s not enough, \nOr I’ll take you back to days gone bye, then you will know, not wonder why, \nThat I accept the modern ways and you can keep The Good Old Days.\n\n----------London, UK in the 1960's.


I am a first year teacher who has always dreamed of having her own home.  I know the home I want and it costs around $100,000.  My annual income is a little over $30,000.  I have student loans that I'm repaying.  My credit score is around 610 - 620.  I also have a car that I'm paying for.  Right now I am looking for some land to build the home on, but what I want to know is what can I do in the meantime to get my credit score on up to improve my chances of getting a loan and better yet, a good interest rate?

Couple of things.\n\nFirst, get yourself a secured credit card.  A good one can be gotten from Bank of America or HSBC.\n\nWhen you're ready to buy a home, look to Bank of America for a mortgage.  They offer 100% financing (zero down) mortgages for teachers.\n\nUSE your credit card, but pay it off each month.  It will help you build up your credit score.\n\ngood luck!


If I will marry one day I would like to do the ceremony on the beach. With families + a few real friends.\nI would like that everyone comes without shoes and colourful nice dresses.  I would like to put a lot of candle and a lot of colourful flowers all over the beach.  I would like to wear a nice white, short sexy dress. And my partner in white too. I would like to serve fresh fish, lobster, conchmeat, shrimps and everything (fresh as well) from the sea.\nAnd for the meatlovers some kebab and juicy baby backribs, I mean it have to be like a nice long table on the beach decorated with candles and flowers and fresh tropical fruits.\nWith all these foods on it and fresh vegetables + salads.\nAnother small table for my wedding cake , and chocolates and cookies. For music some nice cocktail music.\nAnd to finish put some fireworks at the end of the party.

wow...that sounds really beautiful and I hope it comes true for u. As for me, my fiance and I are paying for our own things. We are having a nice wedding (with a wedding dress and tuxs). for the reception it is going to be one with  hay...music...liquior and a bbq. it is us. We arent the whole fancy stuff. Like a country barn dance like u may see in some movies.  It looks great in my head so I pray it looks good out of it.  2 months to go.


Any good tips, tricks, and/or ideas?  Thanks.

Guns and Ammo Handgun magazine had an article about combat grip on a pistol it would be worth picking up.  I watch Shooting USA on OLN and Shooting Gallery on the Outdoor network for tips.\n\nLeaning in the shot has helped my aim. The foot that is on the side of your shooting hand slightly forward legs shoulders width apart knees slightly bent.  These things have helped me a bunch.  Join a gun club, I have found other shooters help each other out because the more of us who enjoy our sport the better\n\nAlso, I bought an airsoft bb gun to practice with indoors


Just 2 or 3 centuries ago, I seem to remember reading about another "cheap labor" that would "do jobs regular americans wouldn't". These were called indentured servants. You had a debt, the way to pay it off was to submit to slavery until the debt was forgiven. Ah! Then came a new level of cheap labor. Tribesmen who couldn't read and had no idea how 'the system' worked... slave labor.\nFew people realize that slave labor and indentured servants for centuries past was offered as cheap labor by big business. It was so much easier to sell it to the common 'WHITE' man that this was okay and reasonable. After all, aren't they superior beings? you know...that religious thing about being in some god's image and all...\n\nAnd NO! NO! NO! There is no argument about them making so much more money here than there to make it worth it. I imagine that telling a black man he was living much better here than free at home would have flown back then, too.\n\nNo- Not a Lib or Con. Vote for none of the above!!

Made_in_America(Above)-Hows This Answer ????\n\nLEGAL Immigration is a good and healthy thing for a nation, because it is done at a rate and in a way that allows a country to collectively decide what sort of labor/jobs ratios it wants to maintain. Limitless ILLEGAL Immigration, however, leads to the modern-day equivalent of slavery, benefiting only the conservative corporate elites.\n \nTranslation:To The Conservative Corporate Elite In This Nation...The Answer To Your Question Is YES\n\nAlthough These"Indentured Servants"Are Free To Go, They Stay Because Their Lives ARE, No Doubt, Better Than At Home,\nBut ILLEGALs Are Still A HUGE DRAIN To The Taxpayers\n\nHeres Something NOBODY Thought Of Yet\n\nIF We Deport The ILLEGAL Immigrants employers would respond to this new, tighter, labor market in two ways. \n\n1: They would offer HIGHER Wages, INCREASED Benefits, and Improved Working Conditions, so as to recruit and retain people from the remaining pool of workers.\n\n2:At the same time, the same employers would look for ways to eliminate some of the jobs they now are having trouble filling. The result would be a NEW Equilibrium, with Blue-Collar Workers making somewhat Better Money, but each one of those workers being more productive.                     \n\n In Turn The US unemployment rate would drop close to zero, and wages would begin to rise. The American middle class would begin to return to viability, as would the union movement in this nation.\n\n(Wait A Sec....I Aint Done....Stay With Me Here Folks)\n\nThe NEXT Turn Of Events Would Be For IMMIGRANTS To Come To The US In Search Of A Better Life And Then You Would Not Ask Questions Like THIS Because The IMMIGRANTS Would Be Getting A FAIR And DECENT Wage,(NOT $3.00Per Hour)And Would NOT Have To Shack Up 10-15 Inna Cardboard Box,They WILL Pay TAXES,They Will Have Insurance(HEALTH And OTHERwise) And The REST Of The Nation Would Not Look DOWN On Them As We All Have Shown That We Do Right In These Forums Because They Would Be LEGAL, DOCUMENTED IMMIGRANTS In Our Nation\n\nResult:Better For The Immigrants-Better For The Economy\nAnd Situations Described Above By meridocbrandybuck Would Be Virtually IMPOSSIBLE(You Are Describing Some ILLEGAL Immigrants)\n\nThe ANSWER To Your Question Is \nLimitless ILLEGAL Immigration IS, Without A Doubt, the Modern-Day EQUIVALENT of slavery, benefiting only the Conservative Corporate Elites.\n\nSeems To Me That The Administrations Agenda To Keep Their Foot On The Throats Of The American Middle Class Is Finally Coming To The Surface

I know that people refer to it as an "over night" fligh but it is innacurate. Can someone help?

According to Wikipedia:\n\n"A red-eye flight is a flight operated by an airline very early in the morning, roughly during the period from 1:00 to 4:00 AM. The term "red-eye" derives from the fatigue symptom of having red eyes."\n\nThere is an article about them at the link below, including why they were not possible in flight's early years.

i still remember the 1985 bears how would they have done if they didnt have walter sweetness payton i think walter was the soul of that team and there will be no other like him walter is heavens running back now

Walter "Sweetness" Payton, was and always will be the greatest Running Back, and he wasn't too bad at throwing the ball either! He stuck with the Bears through MANY years of losing seasons and always gave 200%! We were so happy to see him finally win his Super Bowl ring. He was the NFL Player of the Year and Most Valuable Player in both 1977 and 1985. His stats include.......catching 492 pass receptions for 4,538 yards and 15 touchdowns, and passing 34 times for 331 yards and 8 touchdowns. He was the All-Time leader in running and combined net yards. Walter contributed 16,726 rushing yards with 100 touchdowns during his time with the Bears. He held the single game rushing record of 275 yards against rival -- the Minnesota Vikings, and ran for over 100 yards in 77 games. He missed only one game in his career, which was in his Rookie Year because of a bruised thigh, but he went on to play 186 consecutive games. He was also "Sweetness" off the football field. He started the Walter Payton Foundation and was very involved with the foundation in helping children's causes and helping our Nation's Kids. He was a truly great man and is very missed!\n\nS.S.

That freaky thong, but not the cubbies hat. He doesn't want the Devil to think he's buttering the big guy up.They're coming to a theater near you and they will watch?

The devil and I thought we'd go watch the passion of crist. Is it me or is he hung up on him or what? Any way, after the movie we are going for a walk along the river styx, he says it's beautiful this time of year.

Just add the record to the right Access Group in the Query Tree. Then make sure that this Access Group is attached to a Permission List on the Query tab and attach this Permission List to a Role that is attached to the User Profile.


The reason I ask is because soccer is very popular on these two continents and both continents have had winners of the World Cup.

I really don't think that there is a lot of difference.  Soccer (futbol) is popular as much in Latin America in general as it is in Europe.  Latin America players play in the European leagues too.  I am from South America so I know how crazy we are about futbol.  Also have a lot of friends from Europe and I know they are too.  This is nothing like we see in the Unites States with sports as "American" Football or Basketball.  Soccer is the true global sport.


I live with my husband and 3 male children - and they would rather be watching tv or playing video games than breathing. Just wondering why that is!

Habit. It can be broken like any other habit.  I loved TV, but after going a year without it and doing other things, I now can't stand the thing.


If I buy the webcast of a live WWE pay-per-view such as the upcoming Backlash, or what have you, how long do you have access to it after the event is over? Or is it that you can only watch the live feed and then that's it?!?!? I hope not because they charge full price for it (the same as on PPV on satellite or digital cable!).

You can watch it over & over until 7 days after the event- it says it right on the WWE site


affirmative action\nOne entry found for affirmative action.\n\nMain Entry: affirmative action\nFunction: noun\n: an active effort to improve the employment or educational opportunities of members of minority groups and women \n\nwhich means hiring someone based on their race and not on their skills, which means racism.

Affirmative action...the words sound so positive, don't they?\nThose words mask an ugly racism which is morally no different from that practiced in the southern US not too many years ago.\nThe only criterion used to judge people under the tyranny of affirmative action is the color of one's skin.  This is the very definition of racism.\nThere is no such thing as "reverse discrimination."  Giving anyone any advantage solely based on skin color is racism, no matter who practices it against whom.\nPeople who support affirmative action should learn, understand and take to mind Dr. King's most important lesson: We should be judged by the content of our character, not the color of our skin.


Why can't people speak in proper language? Or at least something that sounds intelligable

They do teach English (note the use of a capital letter) here in England.  "Speak in proper language" is not correct, it would either be "Speak properly" or "use language correctly"\n\nIntelligible is how you spell intelligible!\n\nAren't I just horrid to do this to you!


In our country we have to take a test when we go to a university, and we have to finish school with good grades, i have  11 deadly serious exams in front of me, and i have been studying hard the whole year and i am still not sure i will pass with the grades i need to be admitted to the unversity. I mean, i am not stupid, i always get good grades, it's just i am not sure i'm talented enough, or clever enough. This week for example, i've slept only 6 hours per day, i've drunk a serious amount of coffee, and i can't get rid of the stress without thinkink about how much time i spend on daydreaming about my problems instead of studying. For heavens i'm only 18 i want to live the life i had before this year, to hang out with friends, to laugh a lot, smile a lot and enjoy every second of it!

Dont be too hard on yourself. I've gone through this problem myself. Everytime it's exam time, I get really stressed out and think I wont do well.\nI know it's difficult to stop worrying about it especially when people have alot of expectations from you. Have a little faith in yourself and in God (if you believe in Him). Maybe your friends are going through the same thing. Talking to them could help. Or talk to your parents about how you are feeling. Take a break for a few hours and listen to some music or watch a movie to get your mind of things for a while.\nTry to get a good sleep. If you have been studying the whole year, then you are probably well prepared. Keep your options open, in case you dont get through. There's always a second time. But dont worry.\nYou have been working for it, so hopefully you will get through!\nBest of luck!


My friendship with my ex never created a problem with my current b/f. My b/f understands that my ex and I were friends first and that's how we'll always be despite what happened in our relationship. There are certain boundaries that you should not cross though. There is always suspicion when it comes to dealing with your current's ex, and that's normal. It's a human thing. Just try not to take it too personal unless you're sure there's a reason to.
