im talking about that there was an historic event there and i cant find anything bout him!!!!! help meeeeeeee!

Early history of Charleston\nAfter Charles II of England was restored to the English throne, he granted the chartered Carolina territory to eight of his loyal friends, known as the Lords Proprietor, in 1663. It took seven years before the Lords could arrange for settlement, the first being that of Charles Town. The community was established by English settlers in 1670 across the Ashley River from the city's current location. It was soon chosen by Anthony Ashley-Cooper, one of the Lords Proprietor, to become a "great port towne," a destiny which the city fulfilled. By 1680, the settlement had grown, joined by others from England, Barbados, and Virginia, and relocated to its current peninsular location. The capital of the Carolina colony, Charleston was the center for further expansion and the southernmost point of English settlement during the late 1600s.\n\nThe settlement was often subject to attack from sea and from land. Periodic assaults from Spain and France, who still contested England's claims to the region, were combined with resistance from Native Americans as well as pirate raids. Charleston's colonists erected a fortification wall around the small settlement to aid in its defense. The only building to remain from the Walled City is the Powder Magazine, where the city's supply of gun powder was stored.\n\nA 1680 plan for the new settlement, the Grand Modell, laid out "the model of an exact regular town," and the future for the growing community. Land surrounding the intersection of Meeting and Broad Streets was set aside for a Civic Square. Over time it became known as the Four Corners of the Law, referring to the various arms of governmental and religious law presiding over the square and the growing city. St. Michael's Episcopal, Charleston's oldest and most noted church, was built on the southeast corner in 1752. The following year the Capitol of the colony was erected across the square. Because of its prominent position within the city and its elegant architecture, the building signaled to Charleston's citizens and visitors its importance within the British colonies. Provincial court met on the ground floor, the Commons House of Assembly and the Royal Governor's Council Chamber met on the second floor.\n\nWhile the earliest settlers primarily came from England, colonial Charleston was also home to a mixture of ethnic and religious groups. In colonial times, Boston, Massachusetts and Charleston were sister cities, and people of means spent summers in Boston and winters in Charleston. There was a great deal of trade with Bermuda and the Caribbean, and some people came to live in Charleston from these areas. French, Scottish, Irish and Germans migrated to the developing seacoast town, representing numerous Protestant denominations, as well as Catholicism and Judaism. Sephardic Jews migrated to the city in such numbers that Charleston became one of the largest Jewish communities in North America. The Jewish Coming Street Cemetery, first established in 1762, attests to their long-standing presence in the community. The first Anglican church, St. Philip's Episcopal, was built in 1682, although later destroyed by fire and relocated to its current location. Slaves also comprised a major portion of the population, and were active in the city's religious community. Free black Charlestonians and slaves helped establish the Old Bethel United Methodist Church in 1797, and the congregation of the Emanuel A.M.E. Church stems from a religious group organized solely by African Americans, free and slave, in 1791. The first American museum opened to the public on January 12, 1773 in Charleston.\n\nBy the mid-18th century Charleston had become a bustling trade center, and the wealthiest and largest city south of Philadelphia. By 1770 it was the fourth largest port in the colonies, after only Boston, New York, and Philadelphia, with a population of 11,000, slightly more than


Rancho del Cielo, or "Ranch in the Sky," is a 688 acre (2.8 km²) ranch located in the hills northwest of Santa Barbara, California. The ranch is located in the Santa Ynez Mountains up one-laned Refugio Road off U.S. Highway 101.  In April 1998, the ranch was sold for nearly $5.9 million to the Young America's Foundation, a conservative group which operates it today as what it calls "a living monument to Reagan's legacy."


It seems as though teachers in the US -I don't know about other places- don't really TEACH, namely, give lessons. I know my teachers give me a textbook, then photocopy worksheets created by the textbook's manufacturer, hand them out, then correct them using the teacher's manual. They're getting paid to do that? One of my teachers is so stupid, she pronounces "Tokubei" as "tuk-bee"!

Sometimes it depends on what a school or a district requires a teacher to do. Some are not allowed to stray from the curriculum (meaning the text) without threat of being fired for "not teaching the curriculum." \n\nI know of a teacher who once, during an observation, mentioned to second graders that "tri" was from the ancient Latin language, that it meant "3", and was found in words like "Tricycle," which is a 3 wheel bike. The teacher then asked the kids if they could come up with other words with "tri" in them. The kids loved it. They were engaged, they came up with great words, etc.  \n\nThe teacher was "written up" for several things, including not teaching the specified curriculum, [apparently it's okay to teach word families as long as they are of the cat-hat-rat sort, but not if they make the kids think] teaching "inappropriate material" because how could 7 and 8 year olds possibly understand Latin, and being "out of touch with student needs."\n\nIt is not always the teacher who is at fault if the curriculum is stagnant!  By the way, this teacher left public school for private school; much less money, but more intellectual honesty and freedom.


i just saw on cnn that in the mexican government that they guard their southern border with other countrys very much...they patrol it very carefully to keep out outsiders that try to enter into mexico and the legals and illegals dont get the best pay or the first choice in regards to jobs in mexico, that goes to mexicans!! and according to their constitution, they will not tolorate any outside interference with in regards to how they run their government...or how they treat illegal immigrants... so why should we allow them to dictate to us how they want us to treat illegal's here ???

The Mexican government does not dictate anything to the US government or to any governement besides its own. \nThe debate is, among other things, wether to criminalize illegal immigrants and Mexico just wants the US to really think about it. Most countries will not tolerate any outside interference in regards to how they run their own government... that is one of the main reasons why countries are invaded.\nMexico patrols its southern border mostly because of US pressure because most latinamerican immigrants have to come to Mexico before going to the US and this also causes a lot of trouble for Mexico. There are lots of rapes and robberies going on not only on the south but all through Mexico and some of the most dangerous gangs (like La Mara Salvatrucha) are stablishing ang breaking havoc in Mexico before migrating to the US. \nMexico's economy is better than some ountries in Latin America and although the goal of most of the immigrants is not to stay permanently in Mexico they have to compete there for the available jobs, and in Mexico, Mexicans are willing to take any available job. We cannot afford to be choosy and say we are not worth a job so let the illegal immigrants take it.

okay... if there have been sightings of aliens, and people know they exist but cant be sure, well... there's millions of galaxies full of other plantes like ours. why havnt aliens let us know that they exist? why havnt they?... any ideas?

Same reason we don't go looking for aliens in the millions of other galaxies.  Space travel isn't something that's fast.  It takes years and years to get somewhere that you can see in a telescope, let alone trying to go to somewhere that you can't.


pick one of two choises.\n 1. you will die at 40 but live whats left of your life as happy as you could ever be with your soulmate, no heartaches.\n 2. you will die at 100, live whats left of ur life with someone your comfortable with, including all ups and downs in a relationship.\n\nwich would you choose.

I'm already 41, but I would choose #2 because what's life without some ups and downs.


It started 3 days ago first my temp was at 96.0 then 98.8 know today when i woke up it was 100.5? How much longer of this fever? Plus i got  a headick for 3 days too

Have you taken any tylenol?  that should help with both the headache and the fever.  If you take the tylenol and your fever goes down, but comes back when it is time to take the tylenol again, keep taking the tylenol.  If the fever does NOT go down, wait until the next dose time, but if it doesn't go down after two doses, see a dr.  If it goes UP after one dose, see a dr.\n\nYou can also try a luke warm bath/shower to help you feel better,  DO NOT take a cold bath/shower.  That can make you go into shock.\n\nOne last idea:  once I was really sick with a fever that would not stay down, and just felt miserable.  My pharmacist suggested to my husband that we get a cool mist humidifier to help with my breathing (I had bronchitis).  The MINUTE he set up the humidifier for me, I felt much cooler.  It was wonderful.\n\nBlessed be,\n\nGypsy :o)


I see quite a few people are taking offense because there seems to be many people bashing the president.  Therefore, I am compelled to ask, "What positive things has President Bush done for the U.S. as a whole?"

hes making more and more people pay  closer attention to our goverment and what it does.\nthat in itself is wonderful!

my son just joined and is helping to start up the fraternity at SUNY Albany. I would like to know a little about the fraternity

Our Values\nThe Chi Phi Fraternity is a values-based organization  founded on the basis of Truth, Honor & Personal Integrity.  These are timeless values which guide the fundamental purposes of the Fraternity.\n\nAs with any dynamic organization there is a need to maintain relevancy in the lives of our members and society in general.  To that end, Chi Phi has renewed its commitment to the Founding Values of Truth, Honor & Personal Integrity.  \n\nAt the same time, the Fraternity has begun to explore a modern set of evolving Core Values which can be used to guide our daily activities and functions.  These Core Values offer contemporary definitions of the values that drive the Fraternity.  \n\nOur Core Values will be supplemented by a set of Operational Values which guide individual acts which define Chi Phi as a uniquely beneficial organization.  These concepts will guarantee Chi Phi's success as a Fraternity made up of men of impeccable character. \n\nCore Values\n\nFriendship\nWe will engage in mutually enriching relationships.\n\nRespect\nWe will respect ourselves, each other, the Fraternity and society.\n\nHonesty\nWe will interact in an open and truthful way.\n\nResponsibility\nWe will fulfill our moral expectations as individuals and as an organization.\n\nCommitment\nWe will accomplish more than that which is expected of us.\n\nPersonal Development\nWe will build better men, better leaders and better citizens. \n\nOur Creed\n \n   \n\nI believe in the Chi Phi Fraternity. From its triple origin, Chi Phi sets forth and maintains values that others in society have dared to compromise. Truth, honesty, and personal integrity are the foundations upon which Chi Phi is built. A man's word is his bond. Chivalrous behavior crosses the ages to touch the heart of Chi Phi.\n\nI believe in the friendship of Chi Phi. Whether on the road or in the chapter house, the hand of Brotherhood is always extended. The strength obtained from the union of congenial minds is the backbone of the Fraternity. Our founders sought for nothing less.\n\nFinally, I believe in the future of the Chi Phi Fraternity because I believe in myself. When I put forth my best effort and combine that with the strength of my Brothers, we can achieve the victory of continual existence.\n\nAs long as the Almighty permits, I will strive to better myself through the teachings of my Fraternity. Being a more aware citizen, a more able person, and a stronger Chi Phi shall be my reward\n\nWhy Join?\nFifty-nine Chi Phi Chapters and Colonies exist at various colleges, universities, and institutions of higher learning throughout the United States. From Massachusetts to California and Oregon to Florida, the undergraduate and alumni members of our Fraternity promote Chi Phi's continued success and growth by demonstrating a high level of campus and community involvement, athletic success, academic excellence, and meaningful friendships. Over 37,000 men living around the globe proudly wear our badge and demonstrate the values that our founders instilled so deeply into our culture. \n\nIf you're a values-based leader, gentleman, and scholar who believes in the importance of principles like Truth, Honor, and Integrity - then we want you to join the Chi Phi Chapter on your Campus.\n\nMen that join Chi Phi Chapters have an awesome array of possibilities ahead of them. Those men not only have the incomparable experience of lifelong brotherhood, but they hold membership in one of the most distinguished and venerable organizations in the country. Since 1824, Chi Phi members have been invited to contribute to the greater effort of Brotherhood and receive even more opportunities in return. Those men become better leaders through experience, better athletes through competition, better citizens through service, and better students through the assistance of their peers. The benefits of membership in a Chi Phi Chapter are clear.\n\nChi Phi, strong from north to south and from east

Yes, I have purchased many items, over the internet..I pay with a credit card number..If you are going to do that, make sure that it is a secure website..To verify that it is secure, after the http, at the beginning of the web address, make sure that there is an "s" after http..It will look like this https, which means it is a secure website..Also at the bottom of the page, will be a picture of a paddlock, that means the page is secure, and you can put your credit card number in..I have purchased many items over the web, and I never had any problems..


If even Light cannot escape the gravitational pull of a "Black Hole", then that means "Light" has a mass right???  What does it weigh?

light has mass....light is made up of photons....light has both wave and particle properties...rest mass of photon is zero and that the effective mass of photon is about 5.42MeV in the symmetric nuclear matter at the saturation density ρ0 = 0.16fm-3 and about 2.0MeV at the surface of }238U.


A journal bearing is also called a sleeve bearing because  it consists of a sleeve that encloses a portion of the shaft. It relies on a film of oil to support the shaft and permit shaft to rotate within the sleeve. \n\nUnlike an antifriction bearing (ball or roller type) A journal bearing tends to generate a good bit of heat and needs a method to keep cool either by radiation or a circulating system using a coolant. The oil film also needs a method to maintain sufficient oil to keep the oil film from breaking down.


An acceptance will create a contract. At common law the acceptance had to be identical ( mirror image) to the offer! A response that was not identical would amount to a counter-offer and cancel out the offer. Modernly, this is no longer the case. If the offeree gives a grumbling response, or if the response given contains additional terms that are unimportant (immaterial), it will still be ruled an acceptance! The UCC reflects a greater departure from the traditional common law approach. When merchants (pros) are transacting business, they almost always rely on their own forms. An offer will be made on one form and an acceptance will be presented on another form. The purported acceptance will invariably contain terms and conditions that are not in the offer. Will the additional terms cause the court to rule that a counter offer was made? Will a court find a contract based on the terms that are identical and then disregard the additional terms? Will a court find a contract and include t

As for your first question, under the UCC, the additional terms become part of the contract if the parties are merchants unless the offeree expressly limits acceptance to the terms of the offer, materially alters the contract or the offeree objects within 10 days. If this is the case, then the offeree has made a counter offer and there is no contract. \n\nSo if one party is not a merchant, then the additional or different terms are merely proposals and are disregarded(mean nothing). \n\nYou need to read 2-207 carefully and get a good Barbri outline.


We just got our 1st mortgage out of foreclosure and we need a loan to get caught up on 2nd - quick! We have a few pretty minor issues which are being taken care of. We had perfect credit for  nearly 20 years until a few years ago. We filed bankruptcy in, I think, 2001.Hope this helps, credit guru!Also, we are self-employed and our income is very good now.

Here is what I would recommend, 1st get all 3 of your credit reports(and your husband?) from www.annualcreditreport.com. Review those for accuracy. Dispute any item you believe to be incorrect.\n\nThe if you can I would spend the $90.00(2 x $45.00) to get your FICO scores at www.myfico.com/12. When you have your "real" FICO scores then you can do some shopping on the phone with local bankers/mortgage brokers telling them your situation. A good mortgage broker will give you the info without trying to get you to apply to see what they can do. You will be an informed consumer.\n\nWhat they will need:\n\nProperty value\n1st mortgage balance & no of late payments & when\n2nd mortgage balance & no of late payments & when\nOther debts, monthly payments & no of late payments & when\nBusiness net income\nDebt to income ratio\n\nGood Luck


I just want to know how girls approach the guys that they like. Usually the guy will do the approaching but now, in modern times, girls sometimes have to do the approaching. Do you just say hi if you pass him? Bearing in mind this is someone in the same university as you but not in the same faculty. \nalternatively, how do girls get the guy to come and approach her?\nA question to the guys, are guys okay with girls approaching them?

well if you want a guy to know you are interested these days they will get the point most easily if the girl simply flirts verbally. Talk to them, let them now you exist. Make eye contact and when you do smile sweetly. Make sure that you are consistant but yet distant about your intrest you are wanting him to notice. Give him a look that just tells him that you want him, I mean go old school and look him up and down....just checkin him out like there is no tomorrow. He should get your point really quick, especially if he is interested in you as well. If he does not make response within, I would say, no more than 2 weeks than you just need to give up that interest and move on.

I'm 5 months pregnant, could it have to do with the baby laying on a nerve or something? It's my left hand and it's going in and out of numbness.

Mine did this too...first question I would have is are you retaining alot of fluid? My numbness was related to fluid retention and started in the 6th month, and I ended up with toxemia/pre eclamsia... cut back your sodium intake to avoid, and ask your doctor about it. As my condition progressed and turned into eclampsia I also started getting numbness in my face. I hope things  go well for you. It might be nreve related , so ask your doctor. I can only tell you what my experience was. Good Luck & congratulations on the baby.

I've been seeing all the questions about god lately and decided to jump on the band wagon. :-)  i asked this before in the philosophy section, but didn't receive any real answers.\n\nA being feels pain, but does not have free will. Would that be solid proof against the existence of an omnipotent, omniscient, benevolent, just god? I have thought about this, and it seems that it would be, because without free will, the being could not have deserved the pain through choices it made and could not choose to improve itself through the experience of pain. With a god like the one described above, the pain of the being could be eliminated without any intereference with free will (there is none to start with). If the being cannot make a choice, then any pain it feels has no moral justification if an omnipotent, omniscient, benevolent, just god exists, and would be unnecessary pain.  \n\nThe beings I am thinking of specifically are animals, who have no original sin.\n\nthoughts on this?

Indeed, I agree with the view that pain is not intended as a punishment, but as a mere defense mechanism against natural dangers and death. These defense mechanisms are what help animals, including us humans, to survive in the world, by forcing us to stay away of behaviours, things or places that may harm us and cause our death.\nI don't think this is any kind of proof, not in favour of the existance of a God, nor against it. The only things that can be actually and empirically proved are those that belong to the realm of science and the physical world, and religious beliefs don't fall into that category.\nReligion is matter of reason, but also one of faith, as it aims to find an explanation to questions that mankind will never be able to answer through empirical or scientific methods. (Such as "Why do we exist?", "What's the purpose of life?", "When will our plane of existance end, if it ever does?")\n\nPersonally, as a Naturalistic Pantheist, I believe we should just wonder at how complex and beautifully crafted our world and existance are, the most perfect and intelligent creations, of whose perfection we can only grasp but a minimum fraction, and not worry with methaphysical questions that we will never be able to answer for sure.\nAll we know for sure is what we can see - How wonderfully composed our universe is, from gigantic planets to microscopic quarks, and how complex and puzzling human life is.\nWe should enjoy life and the gift of counciousness, and rejoice with what we have, trying to trascend in eternity by making this world better with our actions and by preserving it for our own subsistence and those of our children, instead of worrying or repressing ourselves with metaphysical questions that we won't be able to answer in our entire human existance.\n\nVery good question, by the way.

My teacher told us to find out as our homework, plus I am, as always, curious.


As there is easter coming up I wonder if it is possible to calculate the surface of an "egg"?? \nI already know the surface area of a sphere is  4*Pi*r^2,  where  r  stands for the radius of the sphere, and Pi is the constant approximately equal to 3.14159\n\nAn egg shaped thingy probaly has got a mathematical term to, but my math skills are somewhat lacking...\n\nSO PLEASE, \npretty please \njust tell me in simple english how the surface would be calculated \n(e.g. cut into ellipses? what measures would be needed?)\n\nMany thanks in advance :)

I have to admit, when I look at your other questions, I wonder how serious you are. You look like a bit of a joker. How do I know you won't just delete this question if I help you?\n- - - - - - - - - - - - -\n\nI have gone back to look at this question. Contrary to what others have said, this question has been examined over and over and there is a substantial literature on it. The size and shape of eggs is very interesting to people in the poultry industry, and those who must develop machinery that interacts with eggs, as well as environmentalists and others. \n\nThere are several problems here clearly. One is, there is no uniform shape to an egg. Different animals and different species produce different-shaped eggs.\n\nThe second is, there is no easy formula available for an egg shape that is well-known.\n\n\nThat said, there are lots of approximation and estimation methods available, as well as lots of experimental data and tables for different kinds of eggs. \n\nIn general, for eggs that are rotationally symmetric about an axis, the surface area \n\nA= 2*pi* {int from a to b} y(x) * sqrt[1+y'(x)] dx\n\nwhere y(x) is the curve describing the boundary of the egg, \na<=x<=b. If y(x) is analytic, then this integral can be done analytically. If not, it can be done numerically, as done by one of the references. \n\nIn the case of hen's eggs, T. C. Carter (1968) produced a 3 parameter model for computing surface area ("The hen's egg: A mathematical model with three parameters", Brit. Poulty Sci. 9, 165-171, 1968). In 1949, Romanoff, A. L., and A. J. Romanoff published a book with many formulae and approximation methods for egg surface areas called "The\navian egg" (John Wiley & Sons, Inc., New York, 1949).\n\nOne of the references approximates the egg as a prolate spheroid to compute its surface area. \n \nSome of the references produce empirical formulae for the volume and surface areas of various shapes of eggs. For example, the abstract by V. G. Narushin in the references presents the presumably empirically fit-model of egg surface area, S, calculated as S = (3.155 – 0.0136L + 0.0115B)LB, in which both L and B are taken in millimeters (obviously there is a problem with the units here). \n\nOne of the other references presents some empirically-derived formulae relating weight W of the egg to its surface area A that appear to fit quite closely (for example, A=4.835*W^0.662).\n\nI think that once you decide exactly what sort of egg you are interested in, there is a wealth of material available to investigate this further.


my b-friend keeps on showing off in front of me and it is getting anoying should it dump him or see if he changes.

Well consider that maybe it is sweet that he tries to impress you because perhaps he cares about you & what you think. However if it does bother you, you cannot simply break up with him because he wont know why you broke up with him. Just simply tell him about it. If he doesn't understand well then come to a conclusion based on your own ideas because we all don't know what this guy is like personally, only you do.


What I have seen is they are a few of them going through the jungle to get to higher land so that the transmitter will work when "the monster thing" starts to come after them. One of the guys has found a gun and shoots at it and kills it. When they find out what it is, it's a polar bear.


no chocs or flowers, something diffrent....

i would recommend your time and love its not about whats physical give her a day of rest. If money is an obstacle just tell her how much she means to you and make her feel like the queen for a day every mother deserves it!


I avoid questions for several reasons, sometimes because I don't know the answer.

1.  Don't know the answer and not interested enough to go hunting the answer down.  Sometimes I am intrigued enough to go on a search for the answer - most times I'm not.\n\n2.  Question is in chatspeak, there are too many misspelled words, or it's otherwise difficult to read.  I am not wasting my time on poorly-written questions.\n\n3.  Question is inflammatory or overly biased.  I usually steer clear of questions like "Don't you know that ______ group is bad?" I know that the questioner doesn't really want an answer - they just want to be validated and any opposing answer will be "wrong".\n\n4.  Question is pornographic or salacious in nature, especially when the question appears to be from a minor.  Hey, I'm as open-minded as the next person but until this place has an 18+ age limit on it, I'm reporting those questions, not answering them.\n\n5.  Question has appeared 4,892 times already this week.  If the questioner can't be bothered to do a search of questions to find out how to delete the search history of his Yahoo toolbar, then I can't be bothered to type out the answer.\n\n6.  Question is perfectly valid, but I find myself unable to leave an answer that is legitimate.  There are times when I just want to say something funny or sarcastic or whatever, and if it's not clear that the questioner is looking for that kind of answer, I just move on.


I like it very much ... not sure how long it will last , it seems alot of the new shows i enjoy get canceled ..

I'm not usually a big fan of military movies/tv, but The Unit is interesting. This week wasn't as tight as the premier, but still very good. CBS does seem to give shows a longer chance than NBC (Book of Daniel) and ABC (Heather Graham show)


i really want to get to this website but it is blocked by a firewall. i have tried a ton of websites that are supposed to get around the firewalls but they don't work. what do i do now?

Wait till you get home from WORK before you PLAY.\nEmployeers have firewalls for a reason. They want their employees to do the job they were assigned to do. They found far too many employees wasting company time which is company money. So, don't even try to bypass the firewalls. You will get FIRED for you efforts.\n\nWait till you get home from work to play on YOUR COMPUTER on YOUR time.\n\nIf you're a kid trying to bypass your school's firewalls or firewalls installed by your parents to protect you from undesierable content the same message applies to you. You are at school to learn, which is your primary job.

I really don't know how to program or design or start one, but I would like to know how.       What I have found on the internet is kind of complicated for a real computer illiterate like me, any ideas?

Designing websites is fun and easy, but I recommend starting out for fun before you try and turn a profit.  Visit the website www.wc3schools.com for tutorial type guides on how to make webpages, and then start with a free webhost such as www.geocities.com\n\nGood luck


I lost both my temp guage and fuel guage today at the same time does anyone know if there tied together some where?

Yes, thru the computer. Use a scan tool to access the trouble code and make the repair.If no trouble code is found, check the ground wires to the gages. It will be in the "din" plug to the instument panel. Check a Chiltons manual for wire color code


Id been with my boyfriend for 10 years and he lied, cheated and betrayed me with another girl. He wants to come back now but i cant forgive him but i still love him!!!!!What do i do?? How do i move on and get over this hurt i feel.

sweetheart, it hurts alot. i've been there. you are right in not being able to trust him. it's not always the case that there always a cheater, but it's almost foolproof. if he's done it before, why won't he do it again when he finds someone else that's more attractive to him? all you can do is wait out the pain. it hurts and it sucks, but try and move on. go out, have fun, meet new guys. you don't have to get married or anything, just go out and have fun. i hope this helps you sweetie, at least a little. if you'd like to talk to someone that's been there, you can email me. poetic_disturbulance@yahoo.com


i use AOL instand messanger. i've tried asking them who they are and they won't tell me. they seem to actually know who i am though and not just be some weirdo from the internet. is there a way to find out their IP adress using their screen name?

i think so try searching for aim tricks or tips and why don't you just block them.


My flute professor tells us to try and make yourself more nervous. Can you make your hands shake more, can you make your palms sweatier? Chances are, it will stop. Also, if you are standing, try to be really aware of your feet on the ground. Plus, accept the fact that mistakes are meant to be made. It also couldnt hurt to be prepared. :) Good luck!


I work at a resturant thats 16 miles away from my house..one of my Co workers had there motor blow up in there car..so since we live close by..i don't have a probblem giving him a ride to and from work..the probblem is..he never says thank u..or throw me a couple of bucks for gas..i even hooked him up with a guy who would fix his car cheap..he never said thanks for that either...one time he was out of money and couldn't buy a pac of cigs..so i bought him a pac..he never said thanxs..but he did throw his wrappings of the cig box on my floorboard..i know what u are thinking...stop picking him up..see if i don't i would be alone for that shift in the kitchen and that means more work for me and stay later cause i am only one person..feel like i am stuck between a rock and hard place

it is like this, what comes around goes around. maybe you will get the "thanks" from other people. however, do not do things if you do not feel comfortable with them. just let this person be. he may be a character but if you are not emotionally close to him, then just let him be. just do not be bothered by him. now, if you are close to him, you might try to talk things out with him or try small jokes or little hints regarding what you want. if it still won't work, just let him be.

hey i constantly go through these highs-lows in life \nlike 5 days i am happy then next couple of days i feel like killing myself.....wht to do when there is work pressure and theres no one to talk?

Make sure you meet your basic needs. Eat healthy food and get plenty of rest and exercise. If you have a problem in front of you.. take steps to solve it. If there is no immediate problem, tell yourself that you are alright. After a few times of reminding yourself that you're alright, you might find that your rollercoster emotions calm down some. So many of us make ourselves stressed out.\n\nIf there are no people at work to talk to, find a support group outside of work. It can be a therapy lead group or just a group of friends that you hang out with. Make it part of your life to laugh and have joy and find somehting beatiful every day. \n\nIf none of this works, seek professional help.


I usually pick my pranks from these sites... hope u can find somehting that'll suit u too... enjoy... :o)\nwww.april-fools-tricks.com/\nhttp://www.kidzworld.com/site/p1939.htm\nwww.april-fools.us

There's this freshie girl whom I have a crush for and I become a total chicken whenever I want to approach her.We actually have met before she joined my college and are just ordinary friends.The first time I saw her in my college cafe I didn't have the guts to go up to her and start a conversation.It kills me and I really hate myself for that but I can't help it because I have this major confidence problem .A couple of days later, I saw her again at the same place but this time she was hanging out with two guys and my confidence took a serious dip and of course, naturally I was a little jealous at first.My friends encouraged me to go for it this time and interrupt but still, I couldn't do it.I was sitting there hoping that the two guys will eventually leave and then I might have a slight chance.But then, moments later she left together with those guys.So it was another day thinking I'm such a loser/chicken.Please..how do I build my confidence and am I too late for a next time?Thanx.

i have a older sister her and i have the same father but different mothers. me and her look just alike well aleast thats what everyone say i dont understand why we look alike and have different mommas. i look more like her then i do my daddy and all 3 of us look alike. its just like she had me. IS THIS NORMAL? I MEAN WHAT DO U THINK?

The father's DNA is the determining factor. Since you and your sister had the same father, you have the same genes.  Therefore, it is quite possible for you and your sister to be identical.


plan on marry a Guadeloupe women and would like to more about the culture and women.

Well, that's an interesting question even though hard to answer.\nI'm am a Guadeloupean woman myself and I think that there are a few things you should know. Guadeloupean women are usually strong-minded because of History. They have been used to taking care of their families by themselves with no men. But paradoxically, they are in great need of love because experience proves that our men are not always very reliable (history again).\nAnyway, never try to break the link between a Guadeloupean woman and her family!\nAnyway I hope it'll help you!\nI wish you both all the best!

well she always hurts my feelings and then when i wont talk to her she thinks im mad at her or she can be so stuck-up and the next moment shes so nice to me and we have a long talk and it makes me feel better i dont get it at all?

That's exactly what happens to me with a close friend of mine.. \nso i've been thinking about it hard lately .. esp after i tried every way with her.. i talked to her about it many times .. i got mad at her.. i forgave her a thousand times.. so the last thing i decided was to tell her for the last time the way i hate it when she does things that hurt my feelings and told her that now she knows what bothers me and that im not gona talk to her or call her until she thinks deeply about it and realizes that i really get hurt and make sure she wont do it again and is ready to change the way she treats me in order for the past not to repeat itself


Ok, so theres this girl at my school and ive liked her for about a month. I think about her alot. The problem is that she isnt in any of my classes. How should i let her no that i like her without letting the whole world know or should i just talk to her?

start with a simple smile give her the smile that u woulndt give it to no one and look deep into her eyes everytime u walk close to her or next to her then after a day or two start saying hi and smile then ask u knw what time it is or somethin? then if she realizes make a simple little compliments about her and all like if she wears a make up or no make up see the changes she does with herself and say i like this shirt or the jeans and if u see that she wears it again often the she is interested in ur idea and YOU then ask her to the movies or somethin give her somethin and DONT CARE WHAT PLP AROUND U R GONNA THINK cuz it dousnt matter if u really want someone badly ull do anything for them and wouldnt care what plp would say and especially plp from school cuz today they r here but then the day u graduate their out of ur life u woulndt even remember them or even theri names best of luck


how do you get back an old love from a previous relationship i was with my daughters dad for 6 years and i left him about 1 year ago and i kind of knew it was a mistake but i only did it to teach him a lesson also listening to friends and family telling me to leave him and i did i moved 1300 miles away well now i want him back and he is in another relationship and the girl is pregnant at first his relationship with this girl was for convience but now it may be a little different he says he wants to be with me and all but he does not want to leave her hi and dry with out knowing if the child is his and even if it is not he does not want to see her f***ed up b/c she looked out for him when he was a**ed out I dont know what to do some body help me.

Girl you do not want to be the girl on the side trust me from what i experienced its not good i was in a similar situation but vice versa he left me for another chick and i was miserable for months i finally learned to keep my head up and there he was wanting me back but he didnt want to leave his girl b/c she had no where to go so b/c i was so in love with him i went along for the ride but it was wrong for me to do that b/c i was just hurting myself id did so much for him and didnt ddeserve to be treated this way no woman does and sometimes you should move with the best intentions for him and especially now that he might have another baby mama just adds more drama to your life and you dont deserve that baby girl just move on and really time will tell how things will work out for the both of you. From one woman to another.

I would like to get the wheel repaired with a new rim.

Your local bike shop should be able to order the rim.. though you can save money by ordering the rim directly if it is one of the standard Open Pro rims.  Otherwise, call around and see who the authorized Mavic dealers are.  The ones who are authorized can special order rims and can do warranty repairs.

Ok strangly i have NEVER asked a girl out on a date. so i have NO idea how to... im scared.. help!

It really is not all that hard. Go up to her and try talking to her unless you already do. Then when you get to talk to her and know her better you might be ready to take the next step to writting her a not or in your case have a friend that you trust go up to her and ask her what she thinks of you and if it is an okay answer your friend would then say well that is a relief because he really likes you and was woundering if you would go out with him


I am a medical student and I need to complete a 16 hour shift to enroll next semester. The problem is I could cut 16 hours to 8 hours in 2 days (Wed. 3:00pm – 11:00pm and Thurs. 3:00pm – 11:00pm.) and make time for my morning classes in Weds. and Thurs. or work in 1 day (Thurs. 7:00pm – 11:00pm straight) and have more time to study for exams in Friday.. what can I do? Please help me!

It's better to take the 2 8 hours shifts rather than working 16 hours straight. Although it might sound like you have more time to study with the second option, but after you strained your body like that, how would you ever have the energy to study anymore? \n\nI've tried working 14 hours straight a day for months, and i was far too fatigue to do anything else although i tried to rest as much as possible. Maintaining the balance is more important than stretching yourself to the extreme. All the best!


Ever since i left lawrence north in january to go to kind school because i needed some extra credits to graduate this year on time are relationship hasn't been the same. I moved out my mom's house to go stay with a friend so i can go to school, she lives around the corner from my mom and we don't get to see each other like we used to. When i was in my mom's house i saw her everyday and we always went out to a movie and a dinner, and we always hung out wit each other, talked to each other and was there for each other. But now we don't see each other that much and we've been talkin through e-mail aliite bit but it's not enough, i don't know what to do if there's anyone out there with some advice please help because i really don't want to lose her.

If she has to think about it then she is in doubt or she just doesn't wanna be with you. If she truly cared about you she would know how she feels. I think you should tell her how you feel and what you want from her and see what she says.., you might be surprised. Good Luck!!

Is our caracter more important than how we look?

looks without character is not enough. character without looks is much better. but unfortunately the 1st thing guys looks at is the girl's looks n then see if their characters suit them. it's sad but true.. and also logical coz the 1st thing they see is the looks. they can't know the character right away, and knowing that guys are impatient, good luck for the not that pretty girls!

I was injured on a weird fall from a hockey game and the blow caused fluid and swelling to go into my shoulder. it took about a week to go down, i had to wear a sling. Now all they could tell from the MRI was it was a bone bruise and a muscle bruise, so overall a rotator cuff sprain. No tears or breaks. Even with a lot of rehab, can you get the shoulder back to normal or even better?

How long is the recovery from rotator cuff repair surgery?\nThis will depend on several factors, including your level of strength before the fall and the severity of the rotator cuff tear or sprain.  physical therapy begins. Initially, the therapy is gentle so as not to affect the rotator cuff repair. After four to six weeks, more active lifting with the arm begins. Several months after the rotator cuff repair, physical therapy will become more intense in an effort to strengthen the rotator cuff muscles. Complete recovery usually requires at least four to six months. \n\nThis is more so if you've had surgery which you have not. I'm going to give a link on Rotator Cuff's and let you read it. Hope you start hockey again soon. Good Luck!

Im a guy and I live on my own. I dont have any friends, am very slow to warm up to people, dont really like strangers, but I have a decent interest in Christ and I would like to join a church and maybe get involved in some activities and charities and to find some friends and mentors with faith.\n\nHow do I do all that if im so shy and such a loner and not very fun at all to be around and have some slight anxiety issues and am busy a lot?

WoW!  You sound a lot like me.  (Except I'm not a guy.)\n\nStart by attending a church that is close by.  It sounds as if you are a project oriented sort of person.  Some churches tend to be a little more project oriented -- collecting for the local food shelf, cooking meals for shut-ins, putting on community dinners, collecting shoeboxes of toys for overseas missions and delivering them, drug outreach programs, senior citizen activities, community outreach programs, etc.  Some churches tend to be very quiet and the members basically go to church and vote once a year for officers.  You seem to be looking for a deeper faith, so finding a challenging pastor and/or a strong body of believers would be important.\n\nIf you were me, you'd also be looking for a Christian church that was very open and warm and appealed to you on a comfort level.  Probably a smaller, more community type church would offer that sort of emotional warm fuzzy.  It is likely that this type of church would welcome you with open arms and be glad to sweep you up and plunk you down with one of their projects.\n\nI'm a loner, myself, shy, socially inept, and I get pretty anxious in social situations.  Here is where I need to remind you to make a note to yourself:  "Self, when you are feeling shy, others may take that to mean you are disinterested.  Try to engage in even the smallest way to give the people around you a clue that you actually want to be a part of the activity."\n\nMost important, relax and let God lead you to the right place.  Whatever attracts you, whether it's the building or the people or the activities, know that God knows exactly what you are looking for and will guide you to exactly the place that you should be going.  Whether you are a praying person or not, why not ask God to help you find a church family that you can call your own.\n\nIn summary:  \n1.) Try to find a church locally that engages in a level of ministry that you would feel comfortable participating in.\n2.) See if it is a fit as far as your comfort with the congregation and the pastor.\n3.) Put out at least minimal effort to show your interest in the church and its activities.\n4.) Trust that God loves you and knows exactly where you should be.\n\nNice to meet you, Sean.  Good luck in your search.

The three law of thermodynamics relatives of energy

The First Law is of Identity, where a statistical distribution is assumed.  The Second and Third Laws are both statistical in nature and their expression in mathematical form is beyond the scope of this format.  The following site below should help, and the last one includes several problems which are good examples of the math behind the Laws.


What I'm trying to ask is where it originated. How come we don't dial some other number?

I know ancient Olympics rewarded with laurels.  What is the history of the modern Olympics?  Plus, gold makes sense, silver makes sense, but why bronze over all known medals of the time?

Because they either wanted a different color from the Yellowish gold medal, Silverish silver medal. So they have a Brownish bronze medal. Or they can't afford some other medal made out of more expensive material.


The pupose for the staples center being built

The Staples Center was built for a few reasons.\n\nOne reason is as a replacement for the aging Forum in Inglewood.  The Forum, being an older facility, did not have all of the luxury accommodations of the newer arenas in other cities.  Building a new arena would allow for luxury sky-boxes to be added, thus increasing revenue from sales of the sky-boxes to high-end clients.\n\nThe second reason was to bring L.A.'s sports arena closer to downtown as part of a long-term plan to revitalize Downtown Los Angeles.

the damn fried chicken wasnt done, and it was cold.


my mom just found out she has it and i want to know about it

Most of these answers have been accurate in explaining dementia. It is common in elderly people, especially those with Alzheimers or Parkinson's Disease. It used to be called senility. There are several things that can cause it.\n\nIt is progressive, which means it will get worse over time, usually slowly. It starts with being forgetful Everyone forgets things from time to time (you know, where did I put my keys? What did I want to get at the grocery store on the way home from work?). With dementia someone might be driving and forget how to get home or forget that they are supposed to take medicine, not just forget to take it.\n\nAs it progresses, they generally forget the recent past (like what happened yesterday), but can remember things that happened when they were a child. Later they start to forget the right words for things, and even may not recognize people who are close to them. They will also have outburts without warning where they scream at you and tell you things like, "Get out of this room. Who are you?" They may even say they hate you. It is very sad to experience for loved ones, but you must remember though it all that this is the disease making them act this way.\n\nMy mother has Parkinsons, Alzheimers and of course, dementia so I know what your are experiencing and will experience in the future. It won't be easy. My advice to you is to cherish the time you have with your mother now. Do things together that will be special memories for you. As her memory fades, put pictures around her of people she loves and who love her. Be patient with her, and understand that her outburts and actions are caused by her illness. As the mother you know fades away, she will be replaced by a new mother. In fact, she will become more like the child and you will feel more like the parent. You will have to learn to accept this new person as she is.\n\nMy sister deals with it by saying, "This is not the mother we knew. She is gone. This is another person that we love." That's what my sister needs to believe in order to deal with this.\n\nI deal with it differently. I know that in this shell, it's still my mother. I know how much she did for me when I was little and couldn't take care of myself, and I love my mother just as she is. Watching her deteriorate is the hardest thing I've ever had to do, but we don't get to choose some things in our life. The things that hurt most are the things that usually make us stronger.\n\nMy prayers are with you. Just know that you are not alone. There are a lot of people out there that have gone through what you will experience, and many are going through it now.

What is the significance of birth and stretch marks?

Depending on the elasticity of her skin, pregnancy can cause stretch marks on some women.  The severity of them (or if they happen at all) will vary from woman to woman.\n\nThe actual act of giving birth does not cause stretch marks.  It is the rapid expansion of the skin on the abdomen from the growing baby that causes them.

Suppose that of a population of 100 individuals, 25 could not taste PTC and that the individuals in that population who could taste this chemical decided only to marry other individuals who could taste PTC. \n\nHow would the genotype and allele frequencies change in 2nd generation?\n\nThis is an example of what evolutionary force?

the person who have cant taste PTC, is the recessive allele and the other one is the dominant, so tt * with either Tt or TT so the genotypes would have two possiblities:\n100% Tt or 25%tt, 25% TT, 50% Tt.


I must say that this movie sounds hilarious and possibly like a new zombie cult fav. such as 2004's "Shaun of the Dead." I love the tag-line for "Special Dead"- 'Sometimes heroes ride the short bus.' Awesome!  I know the movie had a release/screening in CA recently and possibly NY but is there a date for a wide release or  maybe straight to DVD release?  If you have any idea please let me know!

According to the web site they screened on the east coast this weekend.  I didn't see anything else about it.

just general opinions are welcome !! help me out !!

Usually, business ethics is a contradiction. In this day and age, ethics and standards for quality are a huge impediment being successful working for most corporations and medium-sized businesses. More than reliability and performance concerns, concerns about whether you'll be too much of an idealist are at the fore when companies interview employees. I think we've got Rome all over again lately.


It's funny, that even when you've made it clear that you made a mistake on purpose,  some participating folk still correct me.  lol


I think hate is such a horrible thing, I would like your view on how it truly came to be?

Hate is a basic natural state. We have to have it.  Hate is a dislike of person, place or thing that is perceived to harm our or our decendants current or future  state of well being.  Hate, believe it or not, is not always a bad thing.   For instance, most people hate bird flu, or cancer, or heart disease.  It kills people,  but our hate for it drives us to fight against it, and one day (hopefully) overcome it.   We percieve it as a threat, and we hate it.   Was it wrong for America to hate Osama Bin Laden or Hitler?  Most would say NO.  Was it wrong to hate slavery? Nope.  It gives us the impetus to confront real evil and fight it.    It gives us the courage to stand against what we perceive as a threat to our well being or our loved ones.    We learned to hate, because we had to in order to survive.


I moved here last june and have tons of friends, and a awesome boyfriend, Im never a bitch to anyone unless the start with me, I'm one of the girls that people dont mess with b/c they have doubts whether or not they'd win in a fight against me. I chill with alot of the ricans at my school, but also with my two best friend(that r white) kelli and steph, so why do random people try me?

Because some people have issues with themselves and take it out on other people. And sometimes people do things to be seen and also don't rule out jealousy!


If I am born in Utah, chances are 66% that I'm going to be Mormon.  If I'm born in Brazil the chances are 86.5 that I'm going to be Catholic.  If I'm born in Thialand chances are 95% I'm going to be a Buddhist.  If I'm born in India, chances are about 90% that I'm going to be a Hindu.  If I'm born in Iran the chances are 93% that I'm going to be a Shiite Muslim.  Born in Vietnam, about 81% chance that I'm an atheist.  \n\nAre we just products of our local culture and not of our own intelligence, our own inner wisdom and personal soul searching?  I'm afraid I know the answer.\n\nCould it be that our neighbors on the globe are just as equally right (or wrong) about god?

Both. \n\nIn some locations, you won't be allowed to question the popular belief system without risking being outcast. In some communities, this means an individual risks losing everything - job, family, friends, a house, credit, etc. Obviously, it's a risk that few people are willing to take. \n\nBut that doesn't mean that people never question silently. Or that NOBODY bothers to think about things and seek answers. Plenty of people do. And some of them decide that it's worth more than their earthly life to follow a different path, so they leave it all to convert to something else. This also depends on income. The last I read, the more people were exposed to other cultures, were able to travel, and were able to attend a college or university, and the more diversity they were exposed to in life, the more likely they were to fall away from the faith of their childhood. (Of course, "official" records don't want to admit people are leaving the faith quietly. And plenty of people don't bother to officially leave, they just stop believing.)


I've wondered this because recently I've tried to cut back severly on my sugar intake and I think I have been feeling some 'withdrawl' Of course I'm going to keep trying to improve my health and eating habits.

Yes sugar is very addicting, as well is caffine, I tried cuttong back on caffine awhile back and boy after 48hrs you have a headache from he**  but after 72hrs or so it will go away.. i have since went back to caffine, cuttong back on sugar dud same for me, just a little at a time, Eat some fruit if you are craving sugar like Grapes, Cherry's things with the natural sugars


I know you can be instantly addicted to cigarettes after just one smoke..but is it the same for a cigar?Im pritty sure they do not contain the chemicals that cigarettes do.

I smoke a pipe and I can tell you that I can set it down any time I want.  To me there is no chemical adddiction.  I can also say that I don't need to take smoke breaks at work like cigarrette smokers.  I usually just smoke three to four pipefuls a week.  So to me cigars are the same as my pipe.  I also enjoy the occasional cigar.

just want to know something about people . . .

I've always been the type of person who loves to do the charity thing for those unfortunate people I see on streets(selling flowers, candies, newspapers for a living). I've always wanted to offer them help but I have nothing but my allowances. So this is the very thing I will do with my power. Make these people feel they belong to the society.


I was wondering...is it normal to be "wet" too much? im wet all the time *even when im not aroused* its not causing any infections, but is there anything i can do to better my situation, rather than having extra panties in my purse?

Do some people have a sense of humour bypass?

It could be because they aren't sure if the questioner really needs an answer to the question, or if it is supposed to be a joke. Everybody has a different way of looking at things--what you find funny, might horrify me. What I find funny--might horrify you. \nI am assuming that you are looking for a plausible explanation here, and that this is not simply another light-hearted question.


absolutely! He doesn't want to listen to all that monotonous babbeling day in day out. He will simply ignore it. personally I'm not big on prayer, however I am constantly informed that the best way to reach God is to simply talk to Him as you would engage anyone in proper conversation. this makes far more sense to me.


can you tell me something to refer for gauge repeatability and reproducibility.....

Gage repeatability is the capacity of reproducing repeatedly some task or test in an experiment in order to measure its consistency compared to some standard, and Gage reproducibility is the capacity for a test to be performed in different environments.\n\nCheck out the NIST website: www.nist.gov/ it has a lot of information on those two subjects.

I am doing a project for my college class and can't find anything that will explain what bills of attainder are.

A bill of attainder (also known as an act or writ of attainder) was an act of legislature declaring a person or group of persons guilty of some crime, and punishing them, without benefit of a trial. The United States Constitution forbids both the federal and state governments from enacting bills of attainder, in Article 1, Sections 9 and 10, respectively. It was considered an excess or abuse of Royalty, and several of the grievances enumerated in the Declaration of Independence could be characterized as such. They were abolished in the United Kingdom in 1870.


it starts something like this...when i was little i asked my mother would i be pretty...\nI heard this song on t.v. and it spoke to me, so I would gladly appreciate it if someone is able to translate the song into english.

It is Que Sera Sera, literally, What (que) Will be (sera) will be (sera). Ser means "to be" and putting an "a" on the end puts it in future tense ("will be" as opposed to "be".)\n\nIt is Spanish, and was in a very popular song from the 60s sung by Doris Day. The song is entirely in english except for that phrase, which is pretty common to say, even in Spanish.


describe the dangers of lahars to the environment and to the earth.

I guess it depends on your point of view. For the Earth, lahars are just another natural process that is the result of volcanism and plate tectonics. \n\nIf you happen to be IN the environment that is within the path of a lahar, then your life is probably near its end. Lahars are essentially fast moving flows of water, rock, mud, and everything it picks up in its path as it travels very quickly down the side of a volcano. It is as if a huge flow of wet concrete were moving faster than you can run down a mountainside or through a valley. \n\nHere is a page illustrating the effects of lahars:\nhttp://volcanoes.usgs.gov/Hazards/What/Lahars/lahars.html

do you believe that no man can reach to the moon? , even their lunar rover , and the flag did not find there even their strong telescope

Amazing!! Wonder how many people out there are too lazy to do some real research and read the scientific facts proving that man has landed on and partially explored the Moon. Here's a good place to start: http://www.badastronomy.com/bad/tv/foxapollo.html  On this website each and every "fact" claiming that the Moon landings were all faked are ripped to shreds.\n\nMy favorite "fact" is about the 'waving' flag on the airless Moon. Doesn't take a rocket scientist to understand how the flag can be made to appear to be waving. Duh!\n\nNobody from the Faked Moon Landing bunch has ever answered my question about several hundred pounds of rock and soil brought back that research groups AROUND THE WORLD unanimously agreed was non-terrestrial (that means not of Earth for the vocabulary challenged among us) in origin.\n\nI think it was P.T. Barnum who said something like, "You can fool some of the people all the time, but you can't fool all the people all the time." The operative word in that quote is 'fool,' as in numbskull, idiot, moron, etc.,.\n\nGood grief...why do stupid people insist on publicizing it?

i said something in his face in he got mad what do u do

They have this saying about an ounce of prevention is worth a Pound of cure.  Now, the women of this world have much to do with making babies and they also have the bulk of the investment in their offspring (physically and time-wise).  Therefore, it is very important that they be held in high regards and made to feel good whenever it is possible.  That is not being hen-pecked although that sometimes makes for a happy rooster, lol,  Anyhow, madness sucks and a hint of it is probably a sign of what's to come in the future; possibly spouse abuse and/or increasing disrespect.  If you simply overlook his anger and continue to develop that relationship then there is a fair chance that it could become a habit or could already be a habit.  That would be more than sad.  You would have to be on guard so as not to ever upset him because he could illogically knock your teeth out or worse.  Violence sucks and clear communication with mutual appreciation is blissful.  It's true, the women of this world are entitled to the utmost respect from every male for without you wonderful women we would not have been born.  I sense you females something akin to being GODS!  THE TRUE CREATORS!  Have a nice day, avoid conflicts as best you might.


The same way as a full sized airplane. There are two forces at work that cause lift on the airplane. 1. lift due to the fact that the air flows faster over the wing than under the wing. That reduces the pressure on the top of the wing and causes lift. 2. the wing surface is pitched slightly up at the front of the wing, so that the air flow against the bottom of the wing causes an upward force against the wing causing the aircraft to rise.


Hi you dont say where on the spectrum your son is. Autism manifest itself as differently as the kids do so as a parent of an autistic child here are my suggestions:\n\nTalk to the district special education coordinator they will tell you what schools have the best resources that will benifit your child. \n\nYou will also likely need to have your child tested to see where he is at academically this will help with where to place them in school. Many schools have classes designed for autistic kids with more routine less stimulation and more one on one time.\n\nIf you need accommodations you can get them in the form of a 504 plan that gives a mainstreamed child accommodations such as needs to record teaching to replay it have specail testing accommodations or a more formal IEP which gives you class placement and accommodations both.\n\nIf it is feasible you might also look into Montissori learning it is more expensive than public schools but often is very good for autism\n\nlast you might look into homeschooling there are many ways to do this and you can custom tailor cirriculm to meet your childs needs at any given time\n\nAutistic kids can learn but it is not on the typical childs time frame nor is it in the same way but they do learn even when it seems like they are not\n\nThere are many web sites that have lots of good ideas and you may have to try some different things before you find which is right for him\nGood luck

Contact your State's Attorney General with as much information as possible.  Also, don't think this is something too small for the FBI.  It never hurts to explore all avenues.\nDocument everything you can in great detail with copies of all paperwork/correspondence.  Good luck.\nI would also contact the SS administration, and if you're in an apartment, or somewhere you don't mind leaving, I'd move so you have a different address.\nWhat has happened to you is definitely criminal, and I hope you find justice.


I'm curious to know if they can cap the amount of money based on my tution, the reason I ask is because I want to make sure I can get enough to pay for tuition (at a junior college) and still pay for books and such.  I know of a few friends who manage this well and am curious to hear from others!  I'm basically just trying to get out of paying out of pocket and I know I can get a Stafford loan because they basically gives those away like candy!

To get Stafford loans you have to first apply for federal aid (PELL Grant) by filling out a FAFSA (not FASFA) form. \n There are different types of Stafford loans and you can get both. Subsidised stafford loans are not charged interest untill you finish school. Unsubsidised Stafford loans start charging interest as soon as the school gets the money. To get an unsub loan you have to first be denied for a parent plus loan. Parent plus loans your parent signs and has to start paying on the loan I think 6 months after the school gets the money.\n Each stafford loan you get you will have to start paying on six months after you stop atending college. If you go 4 years and get a loan each year you will have to pay on ALL 4 at the same time. There may be ways to combine the loan payments later but I'm not sure about how.

I have this book on American Indian culture... the shamans use tobacco as an offering to the spirits. In my culture, the elders teach us to offer liquor & cigarrettes to our local spirits...... what is with tobacco.  Why is it so important to the spirits and what does it signify?

Why not tobacco? why not water? as for the real ? well tobacco was used to calm the shaman and give them the ability to see the spirits, Sometimes white folk call it wacky tobaccy, but it is the significance of the burnt offering, does that make sense?\n\npart of my indian heritage is give to the spirits what is taken from the earth basically give back what you take, now if you go biblically it's called tithing and this form was used in the old testimate.\n\nLet me explain it this way you came from the earth there for when your body dies it goes back to the earth. \n\nAs for the Liquor part the local spirits wouldn't be the Government would it?\n\nSorry if this comes off wrong I didn't mean it to.

it depends on the situation, if you are able to see him and talk on a daily basis you should just bring it up in a conversation like say "hey what would you think about us in a relationship", if you two are still apart then write or email him and let him know about your feelings.  you never going to know unless you ask.


Warning, world is  in state of despair.  Put down you remote control, cola and cigarrettes, get off the couch, go to the window an look out.  See out those maggots out there?  They need you.

Roydiez put my thoughts into words exactly.  There are better ways then commiting suicide to be humanitarian or patriotic.  Charities.  Volunteering. Raising families. Teaching others how to be decent human beings.\n\nOverblown patriotism (nationalism) does humanity more harm than good.  Both World Wars are examples of that.


I know that in this very divisive political era, many people are against both parties, so this Q is more for those people who are either Rep or Dem. \n\nHonestly, did you fall in step with your parents political viewpoints, or did you land on the other side of the fence from them. Or did you switch parties? If so, why?\n\nI've also pondered if birth order has any bearing on the choice of party as well.. Oldest kid = Republican,  Youngest = Democrat ?? \n\nThoughts? Opinions? Additional ponderables?

I think order of birth may be an influence as well as parent. I and the oldest and very right. They get more centrist and left with lesser age. I have seen this with some friends also. I supposed if you are born into a leftist family, you probably stay there and weep and hug trees and collect food stamps for a living. (NRA forever!) But...I would not vote for Dubya again if he could run. I would never vote for Hillary, though. I may have to go for one of those like Perot or Jesse The Body.\n\n*** It's not a woman thing, I just think Hillary is too far left and too far out there. She cheated by not going back to her own state. I think the minimum time should be 10 years. I would consider Elizabeth Dole or Jane Hull. A few other maybe. I would like to have a non-lawyer non-politican president, like me, for example. Just smart and I never chased ambulances or made a career out of being a leach. I did hire a lawyer a couple of times, because they make the laws and keep them cryptic so you have to get one.
