Suppose that Sky-High is predicting 25 percent annual growth, on a current base of 90,000 customers.  If the growth pattern holds, how many customers will Sky-High have in three years?  If it takes about 12 minutes to enter a new customer into the system, how many additional data entry operators will need to handle the growth next year?  Assume that an operator works about 2,000 hours per year.  Also, assume a 30-percent annual attrition rate for existing customers.\n\nSuppose Castle Point wants to print a catalog of current items.  How long would it take to print a list of 2,500 items, at five items per page, on a laser printer rated at 20 ppm?

Wow, that's a lot of questions for one question!  I'll try to answer the one mentioned in the title, which happens to be the easiest ;)\n\nTo print a catalog of 2500 items, 5 items per page, at 20 pages per minute:\n\n2500 items / 5 items/page = 500 pages\n\n500 pages / 20 pages/minute = 25 minutes\n\nNow, of course, printer specs for ppm aren't always accurate, and assume things about the "average" page which might not be true of your particular pages (e.g. amount of graphics or use of color on the page), so it could take longer.  Also, many desktop printers don't hold 500 pages in their input tray, so you might have to stop to add more paper.


Humans were depicted as weak and childish.  Especially in relation to there experience with God and the divine miracles.  If presented with similar circumstances, how would you act?

I watched it both nites. I was disappointed. I thought it would really be something but turned out it was a low budget and poorly made remake with a few differant spins to make it new.....As far as what would I do or how would I act..I don't know.

is it possible to obtain liability insurance for demo rides.if not is there a way that a signed waiver is legal?

Talk with your friendly local insurance agent.  It may be possible to get liability insurance for this, but it's going to be expensive.  \n\nLiability waivers are usually not worth the paper they're written on, and probably won't stand up in court.\n\nI prefer to deal on a "satisfaction guaranteed" sale policy... Buy the bike, then take a test ride, and if you don't like it, we'll cancel the sale and take it back. Of course, if you wreck it, it's yours...

There is often a national police force with virtually unlimited power in fascist nations.\n\nThese are 2 characteristics of Fascism, all 14 characteristics can be viewed at the link provided.


Basically, why is there so much favortism in the workplace?

the wonderful world of corporate america at hand.  It's the same reason why the people who have no clue about anything are in management and the ones who know the company inside/out are temps.

I love Nadal and want to see who else supports him!

There are about five players with an excellent chance of winning the French. There are also about 20 other players that are capable of winning but are considered dark horse / longshots to win. Nadal being the favorite to WIN, Federer is between 2 and 4 on on players with the best chance.   Nadal, Nalbandian, Federer, Coria, Ferrer, Ferrero, Gasquet, Davydenko, Robredo etc. are all excellent contenders for the French Open


I have been racking my brains for a week trying to remember a verb that describes the activity of talking in a downward manner to someone you think doesn't know what you're are talking about.

Condescend and patronize curiously are used to explain each other: to be condescending is to speak in a patronizing manner and vice versa :O).\n\nThe difference, though, is that in condescending, one is "descending" to the level one perceives the other to occupy;  in patronizing, one is acting or speaking in a manner that a patron or sponsor would act, that is, like a superior in rank.\n\nSo if you speak in a way that says, "I am adjusting my speach to accomodate the inferior mental abilities of the person I am speaking to," you would be condescending.\n\nIf you speak in a way that says, "I am adjusting my speech in a way thatdemonstrates my sense of the difference in mental/educational rank between me and the other person," you would be patronizing.

In the past when the stock market has decided the Fed will be more pro-growth it's celebrated by going up for a few weeks at a time.  Will today's rally continue for a while, or will people give up hope on interest rate relief in the next few days and continue with the range-bound trading?

ONE DAY WONDER and here's why:\nGenerally a one shot news item that is of no direct consequence to the market itself is quickly forgotten.  However, yesterdays news gave hope to the theory that the Fed was done raising interest rates for the time being.  Today however, 4/19/06, the morning news told of March CPI (inflation) being up .4%.  Multiply that by 12 months and it is an annualized inflation rate of 4.8%...much higher than Jan and Feb, which together averaged an annualized 3.8% The stock market HATES inflation because it a precursor to higher interest rates and that hurts the market by making bonds more attractive and also because higher interest rates hurt business profitability and slow down the economy. Today's bad news neutralized yesterday's good news.


my cousin has worrying her bra size.  She has 32 A.

its okay. she'll be better when she reach 18.


i have this problem since childhood.if u can shoe me the path to cure it, nothin would be the best thing other than this in the world.

PRACTICE, i know uve heard it a million times.By now you expect yourself to stammer. you are going to need to do alot of talking to yourself practice getting it right when theres no audiance, plan what u are gonna say and pactice just being able to get it done. then mov on to publick stuff, MAKE yourself speak up in groups. and remember that everyone has problems, you arent gonna get thr over night, but one of the best publick speakers ive ever heard STAMMERED a little during his speach, i met him aftrward, and he said about what you said in your question. it had been a life long struggle for him too.


when I confornted him that i get upset he said he only really reads FHM and that it isnt really porn at all and he likes the articles really, is this likely to be true?

He may like the articles, but he is looking at it for the pictures too.  I wouldn't get upset with him though.  He is only looking, and it doesn't mean that he feels any different about you or that he is looking for someone else.  It is mostly fantasy.


Anyone know a site or anything where i can record a speech and then transform it into a scary type voice.

my boyfriend and i have bee living together for nine months we are going to his sisters graduation and will be staying at his moms house. their will also be afew other families plus us and my eleven month old son. she wants me to sleep in one room with people i dont know and him in another. this would make me feel very uncomfortable so i suggest we get a hotel am i wrong in doing this?

If you really need to be together get the hotel room. But, I think it would be a GREAT gesture on your part to stay with your future mom in-law and abide by her rules. It would show her that you respect her and her rules. Plus it would only be for a few days. You can do it =)

I was wondering if anyone knows because whenever I smell Marijuana smoke my heart races. Last time it happened I almost had to go the Hospital. I also get headache sometimes.

Dope can bring on panic attacks which make you feel like your having a heart attack trust me your not, though I doubt you were smelling it at the time ;) and of course the more times it happens the more your mind brings on the attacks knowing what happened when you "smelt it" the first time. Dont get me wrong I am not saying these do not feel real or unpleasent. Suggestion; keep away from the stuff, drugs of any kind do damage to the body in whatever format either subtle or otherwise. \nYou know if you had said "everytime I put my hand in a vice and turn it,it hurts"  everyone would easily tell you the answer ... Dont do it !!!!


Is anyone a sagitarius or has anyone dealt with a sagitarrius who is holding a grudge?How do you get a Sag to get over the grudge and to speak

Gosh, I had no idea what sag meant (single Asian guy? Short and gay? Sweet American Gal?) honestly, horoscope really has nothing to do with holding a grudge-- ex's that hold a grudge will continue to do so until he's good and ready to talk, you need to give this fellow some time to cool, if horocope worked they ought to make announcements in the hospital everyday (all children born today ought to marry someone born next week, you'll all be prom queen and lose one parent by the age of 30, have a nice day) So just be nice, don't gossip about your ex and wait him out-- or you could put a hex on him

I think the biblical things he claimed are somewhat ficticious. Claiming that some of Christian tradition evolved from Pagan traditions are well-known facts since a former Pagan was responsible for the evolution of the church in the early times (Constantine).\n\nI just want to know what you think.

It is all open to conjecture. Some of the characters or events are actual historical persons/events e.g. Mary Magdalene did exist..whether she was indeed the "wife" of Jesus is open to debate...the Knight's Templar did exist..whether they were privy to "the great secret of Jesus's marriage and blood descendants" is another story...same goes for Leonardo da Vinci. Dan Brown does not make claim that any of these events are in fact true; they are loosely based on historical facts. Archaeology and in deed biblical history/archaeology has a hard time reconciling events in the bible to factual historical accounts. This is because the bible was borne out of oral traditions. There is little that is "eye witness testimony". It is however safe to say that christian beliefs, rituals and practices are an amalgamation of other religious traditions since nothing is born in a vacuum.


x/6 = 9/24. This is the problem and it needs to be solves.


She was pretending to be from the same country as him and he started talking to her. They kinda...clicked, and after a while she told him the truth. He was devestated, and told her that his family has a tradition where they pick his wife. An arranged marriage thing. He said he had wanted his parents to meet her and they could see how great she is, and they might have let him marry her. \nThey know what will happen...and Ive been talking to him...he says it has. He says they found someone. He asked me for help in how to tell her and i don't know how so...that's what I wanted to know. How does he break it to her? She's not exactly a hugs and kisses make everything better person.

He needs to just tell her the truth. Not that she did in the beginning but, every person deserves the truth even if it is hard to hear.


what does S&M stand for I know what it is but what dio the letters mean?

Good question, actually.  As others have said, it stands for sado-masochism.  The "sado" part comes from sadist, which was derived from the Marquis de Sade.  The term "masochism" was coined by the 19th century psychiatrist Krafft-Ebing based on Sacher-Masoch's writings (Sacher-Masoch was not pleased with this).  To simplify it: a sadist enjoys inflicting pain (or humiliation, etc.), and a masochist enjoys receiving it.


I was just curious if me not taking a lunch by my own desicion (not being forced to work through) is bad or illegal?

In some states, if you ae over 18, you don't have to take a break, but if you're working over a certain number of hours in a day, you have to take a break.


I'm ashamed to say its my sister.  Background is she's a little grunger.  I know I need to think of something that would mean a lot to her personally and I'm working on it, but if anyone could suggest a some presents that have gone down well that might be a little more 'generic' I'd be grateful.  I love her loads and I'm already making a card but I got so much stress on my plate with exams I haven't had time to think.  Yeah, OK, I've had 18 years but you know.  Oh and student status means financial situation dismal!

Sterling silver jewelry. A charm on a black leather cord, (worn as a necklace) or a bracelet in similar ilk is a good choice. Or a ring. You can get everything from Irish claudahs to skulls. Sterling silver isn't expensive. You should be able to get something for under ten dollars. Present it in a chinese take-out box. You can find them in gift wrap areas sometimes. Or find the instructions for making one. Another great gift is three truffles-the giant ones that run about $3.50 each. These look great in a tissue lined Chinese take-out box. (Or even a mini-gift bag.) Always been a winner for me.

Assuming man has capacity to compress air to 50K psi or higher, what happens to the air?  Could compressed air drive a turbine or reciprocating motor in an automobile, assuming the container could be safely carried aboard the vehicle?

Air is oxygen and nitrogen and that those pressures would react to form nitrous oxide or something along those lines.  People have accidentally created very high pressures, for example in welding one can trap high pressure gas in the weld which can cause the weld to crack.  Another case is certain metals when used in nuclear reactors form gas in the millions of psi range (but in very tiny amounts), again leading to cracking.

How many feet is one city block? For instance, if you walked two blocks, how many feet have you walked?

I have been exercising on the treadmill (on an incline) for 30 minutes, and lifting lite weights (2 reps of 12) 3 times a week for the past 2 months. Nothing is happening, no weight lose and no inches gone. What am I doing wrong?

Try changing what you are eating. Try eating foods that are more natural and not just convienient for you. Mix your workouts up a little. Make sure you strengthen your "core" muscles (abs, obliques, back musclues) before you measure your waist! Try adding a swim workout in now that summer is around.

I love my boyfriend so much. But, after my school year is over, i have to move back home to Virginia. Right now we both live in Arizona. We have talked about getting married but that wont be for a few years. How can we still have a great relationship when we will be 2000 miles apart?

I managed to keep a ralationship alive between Australia and uk via email, letters and phone calls, (\nOver the space of 3 months i spent the equivalent of $2000 US dollars on phone calls) .....I won't lie, it is Bl**dy hard work, bot worth it. I've now been very very happily married to that person for 2 years.\n\nYou have to be honest and open in any conversation, and you have to tell each other EVERYTHING!!!!! ( and I mean everything, bad things too!)\n\nIf it's right you'll know within weeks of being apart. If he's worth fighting and suffering for, give it everything.  \n\nI guess if you are just leaving school you are still in your teens, i'm in my mid 30's, there's a huge world out there to discover, live for now, enjoy yourself and follow your heart!\n\nGood Luck

i currently have an unsigned copy of the offer contract in my posession. these people promise you $1000 at the end of a "diet study" and also ask  for $150-$300 deposit.i  also will soon have it scanned into my computer . i'm wondering what's the loudest quietest (yes you read right) i can be with spreading the information about this. some legal advice would be nice on the technicalities of slander and how unslanderous i can be whilst still making some noise. i just want to be a messenger without slanderig these people. all i am doing is publicly presenting this information. law people, can i do that? freedom of speech? there was no verbal nondisclosure agreement and there is none that i can see in the contract. there is however some all capitalized sentences talking about using the fullest extent of the law against me if i try to undermine their operations. now is it undermining if i present the information and they already unermined themselves? i need to know if i go bigger. thanks

If you can prove what you say it is not slander. There are certain legal criteria a statement must meet in order to be slander and the number one thing is truth. If you lie and that lie damages their reputation, it is slander. If you tell the truth, it is testimony. This sounds like a scam so I would suggest you not send money but I don't have the full details so canno say for sure.

they say there has been tapings from hotels and stuff but they havent been released.

plane plane plane plane , I checked out the video here , if you repeat something enough times,enough time goes by.... It was very interesting well worded but incorrect. All the statements were taken out of context. I have read the full conversations with living victims and witnesses, go over your memory of the day,a plane hit . Some of the photos here were taken days,weeks later. The truth is a plane hit with real people on it,real names faces,not a missile. What is real scary? It has been 60+ years since the concentration camps, some have been saying this documented horror never happened. We have something similar here but with misinformation and considerably sooner. Sometimes a duck is just a duck. This nightmare had an author and it was not the US government,nor most of its Muslim citizens,Israel,or a missile, unless you include an airplane used as a missile.\nPS what would really settle every ones mind would be to release the videos. I understand why they can't yet but in time it would be wise, it will end this insult and conjecture.

without a pacemaker, such as an intermittent, the heart will continue to go into constant dysrythmia or atrial, ventricular, or sinus fibrillation. this makes it to where the hearts effectiveness(cardiac output) is decreased to nearly if not full asystole(without constriction) and blood will not flow through the body providing oxygen to all the tissues, including "the brain" and you will die due to ischemia- lack of oxygen. the pacemaker "paces" the heart keeping it under control like a kid on Ritalin

A religion started by the Roman empire by Constantine who enforced the will of the religion through bloodshed.  A bible which people protest as the word of "God".\nYet God is supposed to be the most perfect being then how can people trust man, a flawed being to transmit a perfect word into text.  Flawed man would undoubtedly fill the book with his on flawed beliefs.\nFurthermore, Jesus as a man who studied ALL religions.  Don't believe me, look into his many parables.  A ton of them are derived from religion such as Hinduism, Buddhism etc.  His missing years in the bible...Jesus was off studying the many religions for the world.  He was looking for an answer.  He said god is all around us.  Not in a church.  No on religion can define it.  \nGod, if there is one, will judge man on how he treats his fellow man, not in whether or not man believes in God. A perfect being does not deploy jealously.  Instead that being watches over the free will of individuals.

i am catholic but i believe most of what you said especially the end part. people trust catholicism for the same reason they trust any other religion (i don't know why i follow the religion i am just guided) people use religion because they have weak minds and hearts. there is nothing wrong with this but religion gives them somethin to hold onto. someone in history i believe it was Marx or Stalin said the church was the "opiate of the masses"

He always copy's everyone's style If I say I like fall out boy then he starts to find out about them and then he says that they are so cool like if he's been knowing them for years and one time my sister said she liked skater style and he said that he did too and he also wanted to get the same shoes that my sister had.

Yes, that can be an annoying problem.  It sounds like your friend may have some insecurity problems and feels people will only like them if they like the same things.  Your friend should learn to like what they like for themselves.


Is there a website or somewhere I can get information on the different property tax rates in the state of Pennsylvania?  I've been looking at homes online, and homes even within the same county seem to have different tax rates.  I was checking Lehigh County, for instance.  Here in California, each county has one property tax rate for the whole county, for instance 1% in Orange County.  I thought it was done the same everywhere in the U.S., with each county having their own tax rate.  However, I checked different cities in the same county in PA, and the rates differ quite a bit.  Thanks for any help you can give me.

Property assessments in a county serve as the basis for three levels of property taxes: county, municipal, and school district. Tax millage rates for a county are set by the respective county authorities. Municipal tax millages are set by individual municipalities. School tax millages are set by local school boards. The amount of property taxes you will owe are based on a combination of your assessed property value and the millage rates of the municipality and school district in which you live. So, even if you are looking at the Property taxes for a home in one part of a county, it can differ from the property taxes for the same value of home in a different municipality and/or school district.


I have arthuritis and 2 buldging discs, colapsed discs, also central spinal stenosis as well as degeneritive disc disease. A double fusion was recomended. I am 51. Did it help you if you had it, and for how long? I am in the chicago area.

I am a radiologic technologist, and I do a whole lot of MRIs.  Weekly, I scan people who have already had the spinal surgery which is going to make them "all better."  Yet, here they are back at radiology having more scans because they are no better off and sometimes even worse off.  I do not see the same phenomena with neck surgery.  But, for some reason, lumbar surgery has a high rate of failure.  I also have 3 HNPs with DDD and spinal stenosis.  The only time I would consider lumbar spine surgery is if I thought only death could be worse.  I would make sure I have tried EVERYTHING else....physical therapy, exercise, water aerobics, massage, acupuncture etc.  Once you have spinal surgery, you cannot "take it back."  You are stuck with your decision.  Of course, I could be biased, because I never see the patients who have had successful surgery.  They don't come in for scans because they are "better."  But I have seen enough to know that I would really have to be bedridden and totally out of options to consider surgery.  Good luck to you!


A High Intensity\nB High Duration\nC High Duration/low intensity\nD High Intensity/low duration

from what i heard, its the total calories that matter not the intensity, say you for example can do 10km per hour for 15 mins but you only burn 120calories, but jog at 5-7 km per hr and yet you consume a200 calories that is better than the former. \n\nAlso take note of alternating cardio high and low intensity for example 30 second to 1 min full speed then jog, then repeat till you can't do anymore hehe...\n\nlastly, do weight training it may take long but once you build the muscles it burns fat 24/7 i think I've read that a 250 calorie choco bar will automatically melt if you have 5 pounds of lean mass which burns off an deficit 250 plus calories from your maintaining calorie intake... this is kinda long but i think you get the idea hehe hope this helps

Just curious :) I haven't had any odd jobs myself (no jobs at all, actually!)

Picking worms on a golf course in the middle of the night. Only lasted one night.


i broke my arm a few years ago ,i still get pains in it so i take ibuprofen every day is thid damaging my body????

ibuprofen is a nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drug. it reduces inflammation and decreases pain. possible side effects, especially if used frequently, can be a damage to the kidneys or bleeding from the stomach. there are other side effects too, sometimes the intensity of them is depending on wheather you have previous other diseases or not. so if you really have so much pain, I suggest you should reconsult your physician, first, the arm should be reexamined ( sometimes old fractures are not healed the proper way and something can be done therefore), or, if you really have to use a painkiller then you should do this with proper feedback and follow up of your blood tests and physical examination - there are doctors specialized for the treatment of pain, you could take their help too.


I would like to contribute to my country's developments.

please!!   no more africa bashing in this forum.  To be a politician in Africa do like everywhere else.  Get an education, be part of a political party, and run for it's leadership!  This is what J.A. Kufour did in Ghana, he's Oxford Educated in Philosophy, Politics and Economics (the hardest degree to get in in Oxford!), then he worked in various places, was part of forming the NPP party in Ghana, and linked up with the Ghanaians abroad to raise campaign financing for the 2000 elections.  He won, and he won a second term in 2004.  \n\nMany African leaders come from the military, because they are corrupt and the military is in power, and the only political party is the military!!  Like in Mauritania, Burkina-Faso, Central African Republic, Togo, Democratic Republic of Congo (a hopeful name).  \n\nDemocratic presidents rule at least in Ghana, South Africa, Nigeria, Mozambique, Angola, Tanzania, Liberia.  \n\nSome countries have contested elections, like Uganda, Ethiopia etc. and some countries have no elections at all, like in Tunisia, Gabon, Swaziland, where either one president has ruled for ever, or like in Swaziland it's a Kingdom with a very corrupt King.\n\nSo do like Kufour in Ghana, Mbeki in South Africa and start with an education and build your support in your country.  Anything else will lead you being hated by your people, and shot in the next coup d'etat against you.


Ah the grays! My mortal enemies...gurr, actually they're not bad guys when you get to know them. Anyway, do real aliens exist?? Of course they do! Maybe not humanoids visiting the earth, but cirtainly if similar conditions to here exist on other celestial bodies (which we know to be true) the life will develop (parhaps just in a single cell form) from the components. Also there is some evidence to suggest bacterial life, or possibly the existance of virus compounds on comets, that why people get ill when they fly near the earth. If there are aliens that are anything like people, thats another matter.


I was going to attend an online university and later I decided it was not a good idea however this was after I had received a federal pell grant. If I am not attending school this year, do I need to contact the Dept. of Ed.? Will the funds still be credited to the school even if I do not attend?

When you say you "received" a Pell grant, do you mean you were simply awarded one (for example, on an award letter from your Financial Aid office)?  Or was it actually disbursed?  If the money was disbursed and you later withdrew, the money will need to be returned (unless you completed 60% of the semester or more).  If you never began the semester and no money was disbursed, you're fine. The school will know you're not enrolled (just make sure of this) and they won't disburse anything for non-enrolled students.\n\nIt's the school's responsibility to make sure that they haven't disbursed any Pell money for a student who isn't in attendance.  It's not up to you to know all the nitty-gritty rules. Don't worry about it.


Is it:\nAmour, ce n'est qu'un mot\nL'amour n'est rien mais un mot\nor\nL'amour n'est pas rien mais un mot\n\nAnd if they are all the same, then which is the best way to write it?

I'm French: L'amour n'est rien qu'un mot or, better, "L'amour n'est qu'un mot"\nThe first sentence is correct (but doesn't sound as good). The two other ones are not what you meant.\n\nMeanings:\n2nd sentence: Love is nothing but it is a word.\n3rd sentence: Love is not nothing but it is a word.


JOHN KAY, \n Goldy McJohn, Michael Monarch,\nJerry Edmonton and Rushton Moreve.\nThese guys sang a Mars Bonfire composition to eternal fame, Can you guess what band they were?

Steppenwolf was a 1960s and 1970s rock 'n' roll band, best known for the hits "Born to Be Wild" and "Magic Carpet Ride". Due to the German background of band members, they were named after the novel Steppenwolf by author Hermann Hesse.

I feel that Ronaldo and Adriano fit best. I feel that ADriano's power fits well with Ronaldo's finesse. Furthermore, Robinho is not as solid in the air as Adriano, and Brazil needs a strong presence in the air in the attacking half. In addition, Adriano is a more complete player, with speed, skill, strength, shot power, shot accuracy, and a good presence in the air. Furthermore, Robinho is a player that fits into the category with Ronaldinho, Kaka, and Ronaldo, and that makes it easier to replace him while Adriano is a unique player that can change a whole tournament because he can hurt teams so many different ways. I feel that Ronaldo has to be a starter because he has shown that he can do it in previous World Cups, and that has to make him the first choice for the team. I also feel that Ronaldo is familiar with the play of the midfielders for Brazil and that makes it easy for him to understand where to go to get the ball. Therefore,I feel that Adriano and Ronaldo is Brazil's best fit

Ronaldo and Adriano they are the best, I don't think Robinho is quite at their level yet.


should he be thrown out of baseball for drug usage

Sadly they can't prove it, but any MLB or baseball fan in general worth their salt should not honor his "achievements". Babe Ruth and Hank Aaron are far and away better players than Bonds will ever be because they set their records without the use of body/muscle enchancing drugs.\n\nUnless Bonds outright admits to steroid use, the MLB commission can't do anything.\n\nJust like the OJ Simpson and Michael Jackson trial, everyone but the jury knows he's guilty.


That was last years profits, so what is 2006's profits going to be?

I don't mind profits.  However, it illustrates how anti-trust law in the US failed.  Exxon was originally part of Rockfeller's Standard Oil over a century ago.  It was broken up due to the excessive influence that the company had as a monopoly. Over time, it has reformed back into the beast it was and, once again, is excessively influencing the markets.\n\nNotably, it should be criminal that Exxon's profits and still refuses to pay the jury's $5 billion award to fisherman from the Exxon-Valdez Oil Spill from 1989.  The abuse of the courts illustrates a complete disregard for the legal process as well as excessive corporate influence in the court system.

Surface acceleration =acceleration per meter squared?

Pressure is force over area and would be per m^2.  They use the center of the earth because the math works out such that all the mass of the earth could be treated as being at that point.  It doesn't have as much physical meaning as you might think.


married indian man, with a daughter. I have a real serious issue, which has been bothering me for some time. I happened to meet my ex-girlfriend again and we started to be friends and ended up becoming quite close. Since she was lonely here, I started supporting her financially and emotionally. I really don't know how but we started loving each other again. My wife doesn't know anything about this and she trusts me a lot. I do deliver the best and I am sure she is very happy with me. I was a man of principles earlier, but now I've started lying to my wife and started losing my self-esteem, which is also reflecting in my work. The guilty feeling and regret is always there. I need to balance the relationships, but have found that I am unable to do so. My ex doesn't mind losing me because she knows this is not going to take us anywhere. Recently, I found her attitude towards me changing slightly; she seems to be lying. Still, I continue to be very much addicted...

how do u know this friend will not cheat on u ?\ndo u trust her as much as ur wife ?\nAnswer these questions then follow ur heart.\n\nbut my opinion talk to ur wife. she loves u and will do anything to make u happy.\nTrust Me!

I have to take part in different selection process in Police officer.I am asked to make a public speech.How can I make it?can you provide a shample reading.

Unless you can express yourself much better, you will have some real problems. Start with a statement, qualify that statement (explain it), and then in your conclusion bring out the major points and justifications.


Or do you have the wherewithal to do it yourself???


I was badly hurt when all of a sudden my bf changed and avoided me without a word. He just told me to stop calling him. He left me guessing on what fault had I committed.  I didn't show him my emotions & I stopped calling him.  After several months I gave him a gift just for my peace of mind.

My guess would be it wasn't something you did it was something or some one he wanted to do and couldn't as long as he had a commitment to you. The gift was a nice gesture and if it made you feel better, then it was twice the gift you thought it was. Mend and move on girl. There's one out there for you.


Ever stop and say: "Oh my God, I've said/did this before, exactly like this"? can anyone tell me if they know exactly what causes a déjà vu feeling?

Strange though it may sound, sometimes 'deja vu's' come from the present. the feeling you have seen something or been somewhere before can eminate from the short term memory tricking itself into thinking its seen it before. in reality it was only a few seconds ago you saw it but something caused a blip, possibly a flashback or thought of something else causes an interuption. the best analogy I can give is of a car CD player going over a bump in the road, it returns to the same point where the mind left off. End result, you feel like youve been here before, but it was only a few seconds ago. A loop in time for want of a better term.


I'm reading these questions and god is anybody honest(besides the smart a s ses)It's like no wonder I'm single I need to lie more to have a relationship,maybe I would'nt have had so many relatioships if I would have just LIED.Women are and always will be beautiful creatures.Love ME haHa

don't lie ...  in the end you will only hurt others and yourself... and do you really want a relationship built on lies ???... you know you don't !...    when the right one comes along  being honest will pay off big time!  be patient...it will happen when you least expect it...  best wishes!

I think the dumbest thing in the world was for latinos to turn this into a race issue. I mean we never said mexicans had to go, we said illegal immigrants. I mean guilty people yell the loudest. Those Asian, African, and European illegal immigrates (yes omg there are some) are just riding the wave like this doesn’t involve them. I mean you didn’t see them marching down Lake Shore Drive and Clark street. \n\nSo now the middle man American who wants illegal immigrants gone, of course they are going to point out the latinos first; I mean may 1st you are volunteering yourself for that one way drive south. I mean really this is not a race issue, we just don’t want illegal people, I mean god honestly Mexicans are the ones who made this a race issue. Because Bush never said “mexicans it’s time to go”

Mexican looks like terrorist that's why they get ship back to Mexico.


My ex girlfriend and I had a very bad break up because of some issues I rather not go into. We decided to become friends and I've always considered her a best friend. Lately she's not online nor answers my calls,she has caller ID and she if don't know that I called I'm sure someone has told her I do, which she never returns them either. We both have problems at home and with everyday things like eveyone else does. She claims I know more about her than what anyone else does. I know for a fact she knows everything about me or what I've been through. I've told her time and time again she's a great person and a great friend. In fact the only friend I have, of course I talk to other people but don't consider them anymore than an aquantances. She hasn't been on at least 2 days now and hasn't returned any of my calls, I'm worried I lost a best friend:(If you knew your friend would worry about you if not hearing from you would you contact them either by phone or some other means?

You might need to consider the possibility that she has met someone else. It's very comfortable having an ex as a friend when you are single - especially if they care about you the way you clearly care about this girl. But when you meet someone new and they are giving you that special attention you find you don't need the friend as much. Plus, it can be a bit awkward explaining things if you know this person still has feelings for you. Maybe send her an email just saying that if she doesn't feel like talking that it's ok but could she just let you know if she is ok. But you might have to accept that friend or no friend, you will not always be that special someone for her. Maybe its time to find a special someone for yourself and move on.

His x-wife didn't want the divorce and can't seem to move on. She is still making him feel guilty about leaving and tells their children (12, and 14) that he has abandoned them for a new family. (I didn't meet him until a year after their divorce). I have children, and we have a baby together. His x-wife is hurting the kids by speaking badly of him all the time. How can he deal with this situation? And communicate with the kids. He currently has them here on the weekends.

Deal with it as best you can.  She is a manipulating woman and won't change.  The kids are old enough to come to their own conclusions.  But watch out for the kids playing "mom vs dad" to their own ends - which happens with teenagers.  They will grow.  Let his kids know both you and he love them, and never speak badly of their mom in front of them.\n\nIf you are up to it, a little polite confrontation with her may be helpful (or not), but think about it.  Good luck!

Best thing to do is ignore it. I know it sounds lame, but when he gets a reaction from you he knows that he's affected you in some way. And by taking the higher ground, it'll show who really is the more mature one


ive been with this man for about two months im 20 years old soon to be 21 i have a 18 month old daughter also...he is gonna be 22 4 days before me,but besides all that i was wondering am i jumping to soon in thoughts of wanting to get engaged with him....the thing is i never felt such a coneection such as i have with him....hes so wonderful with my little girl,and supports me in everything I do, and has helped me alot with my daughter since hes been around....am i jumping to soon??? please help?

Two months is definitely a little quick, but I believe that it is possible for you to know that this may be the right guy.  Give it a few more months and then talk about becoming engaged and maybe living together.


I'm Working on a debate about voluntary Euthanasia and that if it should be someones right to choose.

I suppose it should be someone's choice, however it is the same thing as suicide, only with someone assisting one to their death.  This challenges me to pose the question of if assisting someone in their suicide would be considered a lesser degree of homicide on the accomplice's part?\nToo confusing to go any father.


This is my first ring but i have heard scary things about pawn shops AFTER I already bought it.Where can I take it to make sure it is real.

Usually, items available in pawn shops are genuine, but people generally do not prefer to buy from there, as the items have found ther way to the pawn shops out of "distress", and they are available for sale  because of the inability of the person concerned to repay and recover. As such, the items at pawn shops are considered "unlucky". But if you do not believe in these superstitions, well try your luck, but the item will definitely be genuine.


bad and he rebuilt it and painted it for me.  Also, he does other things that does not seem normal such as behavioral problems.  does this sound normal with the grandeur ideas?

It is NORMAL.\nCreative imaginations, imaginary friends, etc. Is all a normal part of a child's development. \n\nGive this child a set of marker pens and paper, and ask him to draw you these things he is telling you, and you will find just as he's put them on paper to tell you about them, will be no different to HIM as verbally telling you from his own mind.NORMAL.\nChildren are sponges, they absorb so much and all he wants to do is entertain you and dream!Come up with a few clever ideas of your own, share with him imaginary things (For example you visited a rainbow world and you met rainbow colored people for which you had to draw rainbows in the sky etc.)You might intrigue him just as he has you!

where does expressions like to the 9's and being 86'd come from...also who knows some other expressiond?

Several expressions come from goverment organizations such as military, police, etc... that have to code everything for added complexity.  Just the way a 187 is the code for a murder in law enforcement.  There are many others that leak out into public, first through family members that have had to endure these coded expressions at home, then through friends socializing with out of the office buddies!  There are also codes like these used in everyday businesses.  saying " I need a 52" in certain stores means that you need someone with a mop!\n\nThere is also the old time phrases that have been modified as time goes on such as from the gold miners after the 1949 gold rush... known as the 49ers...Of course you can't forget the rating scales on the club scene... By the way I am a 10!!! plus or minus a few...\n\nHope this helps!


I have a rich friend who's considering buying an indoor virtual golf simulator for his house, with full video emulation of famous golf courses. It requires hitting off a mat, I think. \n\nWill this mess up his swing?

Yes they can, like the answer above you can't see the true shot, plus you try to hit shots that work well with the game.  Those shots will hurt your regular game.  Example I played several that all you had to do is hit the ball low and hard with a 7 iron and it would give me credi for a 280 yard drive.

Hi..I want to go to the USA to work in my area (english language teaching) or go on further study in other areas.Do you have any ideas about how i can go there to work or study?By the way,i dont have a good financial budget.Thanx

My question is, do you have a degree in English?  If so, there are many schools here in the US that you can work at, but you have to take a national exam to determine what grade level you can teach at.  As far as going to a school to extend your education, financial aid is available to all students who enter into college as long as you meet the certain criteria.  I am attending a community college here in Indiana, but financial aid and housing is available only in universities and some technical schools.  I am originally for the Houston, Texas area, there is Texas A&M and it has a really good English Program, Pre-Med, and also Business.  But do not let that be your only choice.  If you need some help looing for a school you can email me at joe_cop@yahoo.com I am always on.


please help me describe how light passes through the eye. &&also what structures must light pass through before it reaches your retina?

The structure of the mammalian eye owes itself completely to the task of focusing light onto the retina. All of the individual components through which light travels within the eye before reaching the retina are transparent, minimising dimming of the light. The cornea and lens help to converge light rays to focus onto the retina. This light causes chemical changes in the photosensitive cells of the retina, the products of which trigger nerve impulses which travel to the brain.\n\nLight enters the eye from an external medium such as air or water, passes through the cornea, and into the first of two humours, the aqueous humour. Most of the light refraction occurs at the cornea which has a fixed curvature. The first humour is a clear mass which connects the cornea with the lens of the eye, helps maintain the convex shape of the cornea (necessary to the convergence of light at the lens) and provides the corneal endothelium with nutrients. The iris, between the lens and the first humour, is a coloured ring of muscle fibres. Light must first pass though the centre of the iris, the pupil. The size of the pupil is actively adjusted by the circular and radial muscles to maintain a relatively constant level of light entering the eye. Too much light being let in could damage the retina; too little light makes sight difficult. The lens, behind the iris, is a convex, springy disk which focuses light, through the second humour, onto the retina.\n\nTo clearly see an object far away, the circularly arranged ciliary muscles will pull on the lens, flattening it. Without muscles pulling on it, the lens will spring back into a thicker, more convex, form. Humans gradually lose this flexibility with age, resulting in the inability to focus on nearby objects, which is known as presbyopia. There are other refraction errors arising from the shape of the cornea and lens, and from the length of the eyeball. These include myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism.\n\nOn the other side of the lens is the second humour, the vitreous humour, which is bounded on all sides: by the lens, ciliary body, suspensory ligaments and by the retina. It lets light through without refraction, helps maintain the shape of the eye and suspends the delicate lens.\n\nThree layers, or tunics, form the wall of the eyeball. The outermost is the sclera which gives the eye most of its white colour. It consists of dense connective tissue filled with the protein collagen to both protect the inner components of the eye and maintain its shape. On the inner side of the sclera is the choroid, which contains blood vessels that supply the retinal cells with necessary oxygen and remove the waste products of respiration. Within the eye, only the sclera and ciliary muscles contain blood vessels. The choroid gives the inner eye a dark colour, which prevents disruptive reflections within the eye. The inner most layer of the eye is the retina, containing the photosensitive rod and cone cells, and neurons.\n\nTo maximise vision and light absorption, the retina is a relatively smooth (but curved) layer. It does have two points at which it is different; the fovea and optic disc. The fovea is a dip in the retina directly opposite the lens, which is densely packed with cone cells. It is largely responsible for colour vision in humans, and enables high acuity, such as is necessary in reading. The optic disc, sometimes referred to as the anatomical blind spot, is a point on the retina where the optic nerve pierces the retina to connect to the nerve cells on its inside. No photosensitive cells exist at this point, it is thus "blind".\n\nIn some animals, the retina contains a reflective layer (the tapetum lucidum) which increases the amount of light each photosensitive cell perceives, allowing the animal to see better under low light conditions.


It says it's supported,and when I check it,right click on properties it says it's working properly,YET when I put in a disk,the light blinks green then turns amber and keeps blinking as nothing happens ?????

The idea behind cash-back or mail in rebates is that the companies participating in these deals are banking off of people who purchase items with cash-back or mail in rebates but do not send them in. In other words, for every person that calculates the price of a product including the cash back but never gets around to sending it in, the company selling the product makes a small profit.


I've read almost all her books and I love each and every single one. But do you think that in the romance ones she can be a little, how do I say this, over the top or something? She doesn't describe intimate scenes, but some can be quite suggestive. What do you think?

I agree completly, i love her writing but i just finished redeeming love and it made me feel uncomfortable at times. However I was able to read it in good concience. I feel that as far as books like that go if it leads you to imagine the scene that it's hinting at you shouldn't read it, it's causing you to sin. However this particular book I was ok with. Just be careful what you put into your mind.


I can make it with any materials. If you know an answer, please give it in as much details as possible.  Thank you!

hope this helps you out. molding clay is what i would use.


Hi! I am a Real Estate investor in the Romanian market and we have currently running a $10.000.000 investment . We have 2 more projects but we don't have a company to partnership with . Romanian is named El Dorado of real estate investment. Where I find companies in USA or EU to send them a proposal ?

You could try taking a look at www.Thecreativeinvestor.com. $10,000,000 may be beyond the scope of the investors on the site, but maybe not.

There is no speed of darkness.  Darkness is simply an absence of light.

Th reason must women are eager to get marries is because they are afraid of ending up alone.


Why do they praising statues, pictures or humans?

I don't know where you get your information from.  You have been misinformed.  There are some so called "Catholics" that are misguided, as well as many others.  I was raised and taught in Catholic schools.  Not once, did anyone ever suggest praising statues or worshiping anyone or anything other than (Jesus, Holy Spirit & the Father) Holy trinity = one God.  We believe in offering prayers for loved ones, and we believe that the Staints offer they're prayers for the living.  But if someone was to assume that Catholics are taught to worship anyone or anything other than God, they are sadly mistaken.  Statues, pictures, etc... are reminders of who are good examples of how to live as Christ did.  Just like having pictures of your children.  The pictures are NOT your children, but an image of your children.  you would feed, clothe or talk to the picture.  Being Cathoilic does not mean that you are out of touch with reality.


there. infact you wont even get past the second round. ive seen better on a sunday morning kick about. come on england

I have to make a speech in 8 days on toxicologists. Any tips on how to make my speech better?

Prepare your speech now, using an outline and practice practice practive. Use a mirror first and get used to seeing yourself in the mirror to critique yourself first. Then, find an audience---anyone, your dog, your family, your friend, even your plant for that matter. Maybe even set up a room similiar to the one you will be giving the speech using different items/people as your audience and practice eye contact ahead of time. The more you practice, the better prepared you will be. Just don't practice too much, or your presentation will appear just that and you want to look knowledgable, not rehearsed. \n\nGood luck.


This guy that just started working here has long black hair, wears girl pants, is really skinny, and is very 'emotional'.  He probably complains and whines more than any girl I've ever dated and he actually has a very good life. I was told he was emo, but I think he's just a very feminine homosexual. Is that what emo is? His music taste is awful as well!

Oh he's emo... The tight ass girly pants, the jet black hair, skinnyness (probably he turned vegan)... And he's PMS'ing. Homoesexuals have better taste in clothes and music than emos. \nProbably he is going to cut himself, and if you hit him at work he might cry in the bathroom. Hopefully he wont come to you because these emo kids does some super homosexual shit by french kissing men-men, women-women. Aint right at all

It is an approximate way of measuring how big or bright or heavy something is.\n\nThe term comes from the brightness of stars. The brightest star in the sky is Sirius and there are about another dozen almost as bright (Vega, Aldebaran, Betelgeuse etc) that are collectively known as first magnitude stars. Not quite so bright are the second magnitude stars (eg a coupl of stars in The Plough are 2nd Magnitude, and so on down to the 5th and 6th magnitude stars, such as members of The Pleiades, which are only visible to the naked eye on bright, clear nights. And then even fainter stars that can only be seen with binoculars or a small telescope or a huge radio telescope.\n\nThe point is that star brightness is described in categories, in bands, which share similar properties eg "only able to be seen when there is a full moon out" or "supernovae". And it doesn't need to be more precise than that.\n\nThe phrase "to the nearest order of magnitude" is used widely outside of astronomy to indicate an approximate idea of what to expect, eg "How big a fine will I get for a parking offence? £100?"\n\nThe questioner is wanting to be reassured it is not £1,000 but more like £50 - £150.

in spring, you sound congested, you sneeze a lot indoors and outdoors, you eyes are watery, nose in stuffy or runny, and you always feel tired.

It depends on what you are allergic to. Sometimes my allergies are worse in the winter because I am allergic to dust mites. I am also allergice to some pollens but not as badly allergic to them...so therefore my allergies in the winter tend to be worse.\nYou have some sort of allergy to something that is outside in the spring...whether its pollen,grasses etc. Whatever it is it is bugging you.\nGo to the doctor

Hi, i have a prob, i want to know, do baseball teams play more than once per day? Like a doubleheader, if so, aren't they tired? It just doesn't seem to make sense cuz i can hardly imagine a fan going to two games in the same day, with one lasting like 3 hrs. What a waste of time. Help me (whoever gives the best explication wins 10 pts)

They do have doubleheaders in baseball, sometimes its due to a game that may have been canceled due to weather or something.  So they have to make that game up, usually when the team is in town again.  But, unless you have tickets to both games your not going to see both games.  What they do is honor the tickets for the date the game was suppose to be played and those people get in, but then have to leave when the regular scheduled game is going to begin.  If you love watching baseball you don't mind 3 hour games, if the game is going that long then your seeing one of two things, either greet pitching/defense or great hitting, most of the time its great pitching/defense.

It's so dang hard, and I am practically failing the class.  Oh, it's business stats...standard deviation, hypothesis testing, contingency tables...blah, blah, blah.

Actually, statistics books are notorious for being written in such a way that no normal human can understand them. The trick, generally, is trying to find a way to relate the problems to something you're interested in. For example, if you like basketball: one possible sampling distribution would be the number of free throws individual players make over a season. You could take a sample of, say, 10 of the players and find the mean and standard deviation. You could compute a 95% confidence interval with that information, which would allow you to say that you're 95% confident that the average number of free throws made by NBA players in a season will be between this number and that number. You could find the probability that a given player would make at least a certain number of free throws in a season by finding the z-score and looking it up on the normal probability distribution table, etc. If you're really struggling with the terminology, I recommend visiting your math help center on campus (most of them have one), or contacting a tutor.


I'm not looking for a definition. I'm looking for a meaningful complete sentence that can encompas the essence  of Zen. Good LUCK!

lit_the_light_up is correct in definition, but since you didn't want a definition though, here's my answer...\n\n"To have no opinion, no motive, no ambition, except to be guided, unerringly, by the Principle of Absolute Perfection beyond the full encompassment of time, space, and all things limited - this is Zen."\n\nBack to clarifying the definition vs meaning...\n\nObviously, Zen can not exist without Religion (Buddhism is its most common association), as it requires an Absolute Perfection to exist, i.e. God-impersonal - unlike personified Manifestation - Moses, Krishna, Jesus, Mohammad etc. Zen is the goal of religion, and Manifestation, like Buddha, demonstrate Zen for the rest of us - this is necessary...\n\nMost Zen "practitioners" in the west don't like that part, so try to take it without Religion, and thereby confuse the "meaningful essence", and are just sent where-ever their conscious or unconscious motives send them. While this makes them free from the burden of being self responsible (sometimes called, detachment, or renunciation), which is part of true Zen, it does not necessitate their actions as the embodied action of Highest Perfection, which is the whole meaning of true Zen to begin with...\n\nProper practice of Zen, as stated in the Buddhist teachings, and others, is to be conscious of every part of action (motive is the first action) you make, always being deferential to Highest Perfection (as taught by unbiased observance), never choosing even a thought that is not deferential to Highest Perfection. To do that unceasingly is called Enlightenment, as it illuminates the life of the mind, like light does the earthly life, and lifts the burdens of the heart to be light-hearted and Joyful in all things.\n\nI hope that wasn't too much more than what you wanted, except it perhaps, if not what WAS wanted, NOW is a joyful thing to know...

dont answer with iono or anything like dat. ok say ur 16 yrs old, is having a 6inch penis reg size? if not what is the reg size for a 16 yr old penis. o ya this is when its in boner form....

QUESTION:what is six inches that every woman loves?\n  ANSWER: money\n\n \nI am just joking with you. six iches is normal size and i think that six inches is big enough. \nI don't see how some women say they love big ones because how can you enjoy sex if you are in pain?\nI do not like big ones. Six inches is what i prefer and really it dosen't matter what size you got it is how you use it.I think women that wants a big one has a worn out pu$$y. You're 16 you still have a few more years left to grow but i do think 6 inches is big enough.\n\nA man could have 10 inches and be a lousey lay \nBut a man with 6 inches could be a fabulous f*ck

I woke up and couldn't go back to sleep so I'm answering questions and watching the news.

Yeah, it's 6:15 a.m. and the first thought on my mind was - "I can answer more questions!" and jumped out of bed. Addict by nature, I guess. The deer are out feeding in the hay. The sky is a true definition of the color gray. Actually, I'm waiting for the ice to go melt so I can go fishing. I stepped out on the lake yesterday and it was like a small earthquake.

One thing you have to remember in a job. You are there to support your boss. Some bosses are dogmatic and want you to do things only their way. Others are more flexible and allow a lot of latitude in how you do your job. Then there are all those in between. If you don't get along with your boss, then go someplace where you can work with someone who is more in tune with your personality.\n\nBut... also look at your own approach. Are you confrontational? Do you get annoyed over someone else telling you what to do? Do you challenge the rules simply to challenge the rules? If you ever want to be in a "boss" position, you have to learn how to be a good employee first. Otherwise nobody will think you are mature enough to be trusted with decisions. This is something I had to learn early in my career. Not every battle is worth winning. Pick the ones that mean something and leave the other ones alone. You may win a battle, but you could lose the war.


This happens like every 2 or 3 minutes.  It is aggrevating as Hell.  Does my administrator need a lesson or do I?  Can anyone tell me what to do to make the "requesting" less frequent?

This is due to outlook trying to connect to your company's Exchange server and having network troubles doing so.  This is a problem for the admin.  You cannot control the communication timing when using the direct connection to the Exchange server.  There are a few potential causes:\nNetwork is very busy.\nPoor network connection (e.g. low signal on wireless).\nServer is very busy.\n\nIf the admin cannot solve these problems, one thing you can do is setup your system to use offline folders.  Basically Outlook makes a copy of your mail data on your computer and occasionally gets an update from the server.\n\nWith help from your admin, go to the Microsoft Exchange Server settings and hit the advanced tab.  You will see a button labelled "Offline server settings".  Choose a location for the .ost file and hit OK.\nOn the General tab there is a section called "When Starting".  Select Manually control connection state and change the default to "work offline".\n\nNow when you go to tools and options, you should see a "Send/Receive" button on the "Mail Setup" tab.  There you can schedule how often Outlook synchronizes with the server.\n\nI haven't filled in every last detail, you should get assistance from your admin before attempting this.


I am writing a paper on controversial television advertising and would like some input.  How do you feel about provocative commercial that use sex or mild erotica to sell or promote their products.  What are some of your favorite commercials, and what seems to be most effective for you.  What makes you want to go somewhere or buy something?

Sex and mild erotica is widely used tool for advertisers. It not only catches the attention of the audience but also makes those commercials the talk of the town. I am sure you can remember quite a few times when you have found people discussing an ad cauz of its erotic nature. I love the ad of naukri.com (a job search site) in the ad an employee spells the name (Mr Hari) of his boss as H for Hitler A for Arrogant R for Rascal and I for Idiot, it is a funny ad and has a very strong message. I personally think people using sex for advertisement believe strongly that " Sex Sells" I think they don't want to put in extra effort to make a good commercial and rely on sex. I want to buy something when the price is less than the value OR the value is more than  the price :)

i have piercings in both my nipples, which became infected..just a standard bacterial infection caused by normal bacteria on the skin getting into the wound while it was healing.  i went to four doctors about this problem...the first told me to take them out, but relented when i told him i thought that would be foolish, since they were draining, and i didn't want to trap the infected pus inside; which is a very real possibility if the jewlery is removed and the piercing hole scabs over.  he perscribed me antibiotics, but they didnt improve, so..dr. number 2, who was female, wouldnt help me, basically said it was my own fault for doing such awful things to my body...the next two doctors were equally helpful.so much for caring about healing your patients...

Your situation is completely foreign to them.  Where do doctors come from?  Not quite the same culture as most of us.  You need to seek out a practitioner who has some personal connection to your situation, maybe a foreign doctor who has seen things like this before.  \n\nI hate to hear about suffering nipples.


Does anybody know an effective ab workout besides sit-ups that can be done without using any equipment?

Planks are great for working your core - while on your forearms and knees, clasp your hands together so your forearms make a V. Straighten your legs to balance on your forearms and the balls of your feet. Tighten your buttt and abs and try to maintain a straight line from your shoulders to your heels. Hold for 10 seconds and try to work your way up to 30. Repeat. \n\nBack lifts are also good - lie on your stomach with your hands on your lower back. Raise your chest 3 or 4 inches off the floor while keeping your legs on the floor. Hold for 5 seconds then repeat 10 times at least. \n\nAir Bike - Lie on your back and put your hands behind your head. Raise your legs so your thighs are perpendicular and your lower legs are just above parallel to the floor. Curl up and bring your left elbow toward your right side while drawing your right knee in to meet it. It is like you are riding a bike. Alternate sides, continuing the motion back and forth. Remember, don't just flap your elbow across your body, actually rotate your shoulder across and squeeze your abs.\n\nAlternate heel touchers - Works your obliques. In order to complete 1 repetition, each heel must be touched once. So, get into position, crunch over and touch your right heel once, then crunch over and touch your left heel once, and now you've completed 1 repetition. Lie down on the floor. Bend your knees and keep your feet 18-24 inches apart. Keep your arms straight down at your sides. Crunch forward and up about 3-4 inches. Remember to keep your lower back pressed flat against the ground. Keep your head in a neutral position. Alternate touching your right heel and then your left heel. Remember, touching each heel once is one rep!\n\nBent knee Hip raise - This is like the Reverse Crunch but with a longer range of motion. Outstretch your hands to your sides with your knees bent at a 60 degree angle and your feet just off the floor. Using your lower abs, roll your pelvis backward to raise your hips off of the floor. Your knees will be over your chest. Squeeze your abs and then return to the starting position slowly. You can straighten your legs to make it harder or wear ankle weights.\n\nButtt Ups - Begin a pushup position but with your elbows on the ground and resting on your forearms. Your elbows should be bent at a 90 degree angle. Arch your back slightly out rather than keeping your back completely straight. Raise your glutes toward the ceiling, squeezing your abs tightly to close the distance between your ribcage and hips so you end up in a high bridge position. Lower back down slowly to your starting position. Repeat. Don't let your back sag downwards.\n\nCross body crunches - Lie on your back and bend your knees about 60 degrees and keep your feet flat on the floor. Place your hands loosely behind your head. Curl up and bring your right elbow and shoulder across your body while bring your left knee in toward your left shoulder at the same time. Reach with your elbow and try to touch your knee. Do one side for all your reps, then switch to the other side. Try to bring your shoulder up towards your knee rather than just your elbow.\n\nCrunches - hands over head -This variation makes it tougher than regular crunches. Lie on the floor with your knees bent. Keep your feet flat on the floor. Stretch your arms overhead and cross your palms. Curl your upper body forward and bring your shoulder blades just off the floor. Keep your arms aligned with your head, neck and shoulder. Don't move them forward from that position! Slowly lower down after squeezing your abs tight\n\nCrunches - Lie flat on your back with your feet flat on the ground, or resting on a bench with your knees bent at a 90 degree angle. If you are resting your feet on a bench, place them three to four inches apart and point your toes inward so they touch. Place your hands lightly on either side of your head keeping your elbows in. Don't lock your fingers behind your head! Push the small of your

Im doing this for a english project comparing high school life back in 1986 compared to now.

A lot like it is now minus cellphones.\n\nFashion was completely different, of course. \n\nTry watching "The Breakfast Club" & "Sixteen Candles" for research to see if there differences you notice.
