Even though I'm married and I love my Husband, sometimes I wish I would of stayed single, I just wanted to know if I was the only one that thought that way.

Of course!  But not for the 'sex' reasons.  For simple freedom of choice.  My opinion is from the guy point of view.  If I want to golf, I want to just go and golf.  If I want to go have a beer with the guys, I want to go have a beer.  If I want to watch the game, dangit!  I want to watch the game!  Choose what I want for dinner.  Spend money the way I want to.  Things like that.


SCEINTIST AND ASRONAUTS ARE RENENTLESSLY WORKING ON SPACE.AN ADDITION TO THAT FROM 1947 TO DATE UFO IS A MYSTRY. MORE UFO WILL BE EXPECTED TO BE SEEN ON 2008.WHAT ANIMAL AND HUMAN SPECIES WILL BE THE EXTREME SUVIVORS IN OUR BELOVED PLANET IF THER IS ANY EXTREME CHANGE BY ALLIANS.

I watched this on the History Channel so I think that it's pretty reliable. During World War II Germany was losing so it thought that the making of an object that could be hard to detect and fast as well would help them win. They didn't finish in time and of course lost. Russia and the US got a hold of these plans. During the Cold War the US believed that it needed to get an advantage over Russia and continued Germany's plans of the aircraft they were trying to build. The whole Roswell incident was supposedly one of these tests for UFOs that the government had made. There's even a book called "HITLER'S FLYING SAUCERS: A Guide To German Flying Discs Of The Second World War".

my husbands sister was made sole executor and is not allowing us to 'see'bank statement records 'yet'. she is also listed on checking account along with her mother, we feel she is hiding something, how do we go about getting a copy of last statement from their mothers bank? thank you very much

It may be very difficult, if not impossible, for you to see those records if she doesn't want you to see them.  If it is that important, consult a lawyer.

I'm white so ya... Most cough I mean all black people take the quest why cant we use the n word too literally we not saying we going to say it if its okay just saying hey your a racist idiot for using it. For many reasons:\n1. white people long ago made it duhhh (words are like fades they get old)\n2. It has no double meaning no matter how many times black people call them selves the N word. (yes this means your degrading your self over and over again)\n3. White people dont go around calling each other Honky or seen black people refer to it as the H word haha cute or the C word ya Cracker. ( yes no matter how many times you insult one another no one really wins)\n\nSo why does the N word get used so much why should anyone be allowed to use it seeing how it has one meaning and its hurt full yes stop pretending N word users it only has one true meaning its not special in any way at all just cause yall use it.  Main point wise up dont insult each other.

Your question is a strange one. Are you asking because you want to get in on calling blacks niggers?\n\nI can only tell you why it's not ok for me. First, the word is offensive and was created and used by bigots as a means to express their hatred toward blacks and destroy their esteem. The person using it is assuming a position of superiority over the person that they are directing it to. Second, there is no way to use the word nigger lovingly. To use it is to tell the other person that they are subhuman, the lowest, dirtiest, most worthless piece of crap that you have ever laid eyes on. There is no racial slur that can compete with it.\n\nTo use it as a white person is to subscribe to hatred. To use it as a black person shows profound ignorance (of the history and meaning of the word). Imagine kids who were born to a single mother. She resents the kids and calls them bastards all the time and beats them. Then one day the kids all get out of this bad situation and grow up to have kids of their own, and grandkids, and so on. Three generations later, all of the members of this big, extended family refer to each other as "bastard".  They adopted the hateful slur that was used by their oppressor in order to destroy their esteem to define themselves - anyone in their right mind would think that they were crazy.\n\nIf you hate black people, think they are scum, and believe you are superior to them, by all means, use the word nigger.


my mom is in a severe depression and i dont know much else i can do to help...i've run outta ideas...she finds pleasure outta other ppl's suffering...wats up with that?

You need to get other family members involved, and get your mom some help.  The family, or even friends need to talk with your mom and help her realize that she needs to get some help for her depression.\n\nShe might get pleasure from other people's suffering, because she is so depressed.  Some people want other people to be miserable too, so they aren't alone.  I know it sounds weird, but it's true.  Have you ever heard the phrase "misery loves company"?  That means people that are depressed want other people around them to be depressed, so they aren't the only person feeling down.\n\nGet your family and friends involved, and talk with your mom.  Maybe it's just a phase, but she probably needs people to talk things out with.


Mine was an ankle, playing basketball with sandals on.

How about pretty much all of the bones in my right hand?   \n\nYears ago I was changing a flat tire on my International Truck out in the parking lot where I worked.  A buncha guys were talking to me as I was doing it.  When I was putting the new tire on, my right hand was on the top of the tire, right below the wheel well...and then the jack slipped and the truck came down crushing my hand between the tire and the truck.\n\nI don't think I've ever cursed as much in my whole life, and thank god those guys were there because they were able to lift the truck up enough to get my hand out and take me to the hospital.

come on, try it out!!!\n\nit's not near as perverted as you're thinking....

That's a tease, I was expecting something abit more saucy!!!


Sometimes I hate my Best friend. She betrayed me and our other best friend. I want to be friends with her but I can't trust her. We pretend nothing happened but I don't think I can anymore. It is killing me that I can't scream at her and tell her to stop lieing and stop asking me to pretend she didn't betray me. Should I still be friends with her? I don't know 'cause we have been friends forever (Since kindergarden).

All friendships have their "ups and Downs".\nIf you expect someone to be perfect and never make mistakes, you will end up very lonely.  We all stuff up and do the wrong thing from time to time.  It's our true friends who will stick with us through it though.\n\nIf you are thinking of ending the friendship, ask yourself "Have I ever done something similar?"\nIf you really can't forgive her then move on, but if you can forgive her, put it all behind you and start from here on.\nDon't keep bringing up what she did wrong, but do be more cautious until she proves herself trustworthy again.


If you mean\n\ny + 3 = (1/10)(x + 2)^2\n\nthen\ny + 3 = (1/10)(x^2 + 4x + 4)\ny + 3 = (1/10)x^2 + (2/5)x + 2/5\ny = (1/10)x^2 + (2/5)x - 13/5\n\nSince the coefficient for the squared term is positive, the parabola opens up.\n\nNow if you meant\n\ny + 3 = 1/10(x + 2)^2\n\nwhere the (x + 2)^2 is in the denominator, then you don’t have a parabola at all.  It will turn out to be a complicated conic section, I believe.


Christians, can you recommend a really good online Bible study? There are so many, and I want to be sure that the one I go to is biblically based and reliable. And how does one tell if the online Bible site they are at is truly biblically based? What should one look for? \n\nAlso, is crosswalk.com good?

Crosswalk.com is the most incredible resource ever!  It has a great many commentaries, bible versions (including the NASB and KJV with Strongs numbers) online bible studies, sermons to listen to, references and notes. Go for it!\n\nBiblegateway.com is also excellent and has the amplified bible as a version- which crosswalk is missing.


I have this pain in my upper right side all the time, and she tells me it is just gas.

I would recommend getting another ultrasound from another doctor.  This same thing happened to my wife when we were in college.  We saw several doctors until finally one thought they saw stones on the ultrasound.  She was scheduled for surgery and when they got in there they found a lot of necrosis around the gall bladder and the gall bladder itself was severely damaged.  I know this sounds weird but the next time you have a bowel movement check your stool and see if there is a mucous like (snot) substance in it.  The gall bladder is used to store bile that is made in the liver.  It is the bile that is released from the gall bladder that allows us to break down fats from our diet.  If the duct is blocked or the gall bladder is working improperly then you will see fat in your stool because your body is unable to break it down and use it for energy.  Hope this helps.


Just curious if anyone has ever done this. If so, why did you lie to someone by telling them you didn't love them?

yes i have.\nWhen i was in high school my girlfriend was going to stay in our home town and not go to texas A&M school because of me so i told her that did not love her that she should go to school and for get me worse thing i ever did.


Word locks up when I try to save or save as a document. In addition, IE locks up when trying to access the toolbar.

For word, try this: go to start-> control panel-> add/remove programs then look for word or in my case microsoft office 2003 and click change. Click on repair and that should do the trick. if not, download the windows installer cleanup and select ONLY the options relating to office and click uninstall or ok, whatever the option is. and reinstall microsoft office. As for ie, i'm not sure.

I havent seen this person in three years I know a couple things about him but his last name, but I dont know how I can find him.

Did you check in the basement, a lot of times they are in the basement.


all those poor people in africa, the starving children, the hunger, the aids. all those homeless people in india, the hunger, the nature disasters...\n\ndid they just choose the wrong god? our god is the best right?!?

I think it has a lot more to do with social conditions than it does god. Contact with Europeans didn't help them any. I know much social unrest was created in Africa when European nations tried to create borders in Africa with out considering relationships between tribes. Bush would only give money to help the AIDS crisis in Africa if abstinance education replaced condoms. This is part of his Christian ideals, but condoms would help much better than abstinance. All the Hindu people I've ever met have been wonderful, intelligent people. I think their religion is beautiful and deeply meaningful. I'm glad you like your god, I'm glad it works for you, but I don't think it is fair to put your god above someone elses just because of the social conditions they live in.


george bush OR john kerry?\nim likin bush!

I wish Kerry was President.  He would have been an extremely effective leader.


I found these words written inside a used book I bought in Ireland, can anyone please tell me what language it is, and what it says?\n\nIsmhuaise Andubheighag\nBighan Oloichmeigh,\nIsmhuaise Antaidighruatha\nBighan Saibhruamh.\n\nIsmhuaise Angloireaidhag\nAnna Suaidhleigh,\nIsmhuaise Anuimbhrabh\nAnna Tairsebh.

...Translation of Text:\n\nI am the Sorrow\nIn the Night,\nI am the Strength\nIn the Dream.\n\nI am the Voice\nOf Hope,\nI am the Shadow\nOf Death.\n\n...Notes and Informations:\n\nIt is of most interesting that, you are in possession of this text of which is written in a language that very few can understand, least to even know of its existence.  The language used in the text, which is actually a mystical poetry, is called "Bearlairiamh".\n\n"Bearlairiamh" is not a dialect of Gaelic nor is it related to any of the Celtic tongues; however, its spelling-system was designed to appear as if it is Gaelic.  This language was invented (yes, it is an invented language) about seventy years-ago by a group of mystics and occultists in Ireland as their group's secretive tongue.\n\nAs the years gone-by, the supposed secret society ended (or so as it seems) and, the secretive language slowly lost its secretive roles.  It is not well-known for obvious reasons that, most of the public will not be bothered with a language invented by a society long forgotten.\n\nSince this language was used in an occult society, I would presume the book you acquired is actually a hand-written journal or record instead of some type-printed one.  By the way, the core of this language is a mixture of Gaelic, Hebrew, Greek and Latin.


neva heard of it and dont even belief it exists hahaha


not camping,as this is what we usually do.

Depending on where you live, you might check into a weekend cruise. Several cruise lines offer family activities, and they're the most fun. Or call a local travel agent and ask what they suggest... they're there to help you.  Give them a budget & see where they lead you.


What does it look like?\nDoes it have a meaning?

TAURUS ... My birth date\n Heres a story of it \nTaurus is one of the many animals hunted by Orion, the Hunter. \n\nThe Greeks saw Taurus as Zeus in disguise. The story went that Zeus fell in love with Europa, the daughter of Agenor who was King of Phoenica. On one day while she was playing by the waters edge, she caught sight of a majestic white bull grazing amongst her fathers heard. When she approached the bull, it knelt down and let get on it's back. Once she was on, it sprang to it's feet and took off to the sea in Crete where Zeus made her his mistress. \n\nIt also represents the white bull that sired the famous Minotaur with the wife of King Minos of Crete. This bull was sent to Minos as a sign that he was the rightful heir to the throne. However, Minos did not sacrifice the bull to Poseidon like he was supposed to, so the ever-vengeful sea god caused his queen, Pasiphaë, to fall in love with it. Later, in another myth, Theseus of Athens goes to Crete and slays the dreadful Minotaur, which was reported to be a man with a bull's head that could breathe fire. \n\nThe Egyptians saw the constellation instead as their god Osiris while the Chinese caled it alternatively the "White Tiger" or the "Great Bridge

haha ur juz jealous. without their ancestors they might never hav England on the map


My PC failed on me.  I believe its the motherboard. Anyway, its too late for the PC as I have sold parts of it.  I had a lot of files on the hard drive that I would like access to (40Gig).  How can I move the files?

Since you no longer have a PC the least expensive way would be to take it to a shop and have them burn the files you need on CD's.  If you had or possibly have access to another PC the procedure is pretty straight forward.  Connect this drive as a slave drive.


I know I already asked, but I deleted it while misclicking to add details, and I want to be more honest. Well no teasing. Serious answers, please. It's only the left and to take care of this situation, not much was done, but putting a napkin on top so the blood wouldn't go through the clothes. It's been bleeding for three months. It stopped for about two days a couple of times but it came back. I believe it's due to dry skin. I used to hardly put on any lotion. From my old question, it was very well answered about overweightness, but I am 95 pounds. I was also suggested to put on lotion, and go to a doctor. At first I put on a type of cream and it had been recovered, but I no longer have that cream. Is there any other ways, or suggestions of the cream? Yes, if it doesn't stop soon, I will be seeing a doctor.

You need medical attention.  You probably have mastitus, a bacterial infection of the breast.  It could also be cancer.  Neither is anything to mess with.


I had told my friend that I liked him and she asked me to ask him out for me, and I said yes. When she was about to ask him out I was going to tell her not to ask him out. I got to her too late. He said no. Ever since then he has been totally weird around me. He was a friend so it kind of ruined our friendship. Will it always be this awkward?

well. it shouldn't be this weird all the time. First of all he should have expected that you like him, he can't help it if he cute. Well you should tell him this. It shouldn't be awkward for you because you was the one to ask him so you should be awkward around him


Like if I am in biology, and I get a degree in molecular biology (Genetics) and a degree in physical anatomy..\n\nwould this serve any purpose? like help with jobs etc?


Who is your most favorite character in the MARVEL comics?

Gambit.  I love how he starts out evil, joins the X-Men whenever he's dating Rouge and as soon as they break up he's evil again.  Then the whole process repeats itself since Rouge and Gambit are always breaking up and getting back together. lol


my boyfriend goes through pms sometimes and it confuses me... I know a few others that pms too but I mean how do they have their own form??

women have a monthly cycle, but men actually have a daily cycle.  It is run on testosterone and runs highest around 3PM or so and lowest around 8PM. Notice how most men seem to be more mellow at night and agitated in the afternoon?  That is why.


my wife to  be likes to  have sex with  woman...promises its just sex and nothing else...

I'm not the married man, but I am his wife who's bi....I know with total certainty that there's no woman who will take me from my hubby. I like girls, but not to the point of destroying my husband and marriage. If it came down to it, I'd walk away from women all together for him. In my case, it would just be sex, nothing more. And yes, I can say that with 100% certainty!!! Hope this helps, from a woman's perspective.....Good Luck!


When a cell becomes 'worn out', the body replicates the cell so that the cells function can continue uninterrupted.  \n\nCancer occurs when a cell tries to replicate itself and makes a mistake when transcribing the genetic encoding to the new cell.  The resulting new cell is mutated, and is no longer able to accomplish the function the cell is designed for.  \n\nThe next time it replicates, the mutation is duplicated, and frequently exacerbated, during the duplication process.  \n\nEach time this occurs, the resulting product of the attempt to replicate becomes more and more mutated, and less and less able to accomplish the function of the cell.\n\nThe cells then begin to clump - since the cell is attempting to carry out its assigned function and finds itself unable to do so.  This triggers the mechanism which causes the cell to replicate; so that the resulting product of replication will be able to carry out the cells primary function.  \n\nWhen the replication is incapable of accomplishing the primary function of the cell, it triggers another replication.  The clump grows larger and larger, and eventually you have a tumor.


song is mostly instramental and the only lyric i recall is the word "seduction" which may or may not be the title. i think it was around 86-89(?)when i heard it the most. ANY help at all would be greatly appreciated. Oh, it was NOT a song played on radio--only heard it at a certain club

It could be 'Seduction's theme' which is an instrumental song that is good to dance to. It was released around the time you mentioned. It has moaning in it. Does that sound right? If so it is on the album nothing matters without love - seduction. If this is not right let me know and i will ask around for you. Hope this helps


It is a wonderous thing, very hard to discribe you really have to experience it for yourself.\n\nThe easiest and most natural way to astral travel is in the semi-dream state. Because in this state you have already 'tripped-out' in a manner of speaking. I find this is best done through practiced meditation, once you are practiced in this, you will need to learn very little to change from passively remembering your trips to going out on purpose.\n\nSome people try to reach these states, by the use of recreational drugs, I cannot recommend strongly enough the dangers of this avenue. Don't do it!!!!! You can never maintain the correct amount of control required by your mind to do this safely.\n\nIn the beginning of learning this skill you should simply try to aim your trips to the here and now world. This is because it is familar to you and will allow you to gather experience in little steps gradually, also the experience you have should be less confrontational to your mind (this will give you a comfortable feel to your experiences).\n\nWhen you have more experience behind you, it will be a simple task to pre-program you out-of body/astral travel experiences.\n\nYou may wish to use this skill to:\n1. Solve a pressing problem, from a different perspective.\n2. Actually choose a place and time that you whish to experience.\n3. To allow you to re-live things that have happened in your life.\n\nBefore you try this don't forget to think of protection. Because of my prior training and experience in this field, I always start off with a 'White Light' meditation. It all depends on your beliefs and level of experience. If you happen to be Christian or Catholic, may may choose to say a pray for protection.\n\nJust remember, very few people are naturally gifted with skills like this, it may take some considerable amount of time or it may come quite quickly. But like anything worthwhile practice, practice, practice (and keep a journal, take notes on when and where you tryed, what worked for you and what didn't).\n\nOnce you have mastered these particular skills you should find someone to teach you how to lucid dream. Now that is a buzz, and what a strong tool for sloving problems.\n\nI hope this was helpful, and what you were after.\n\nBlessed Be\nYour Friendly Priest of Pan


is this just a cultural fad among young hotties..?

I think your wife if still trying to grow up.  I don't think she understands the MAGNITUDE of her decision to become married.  This may be cause for concern because it's not a good idea to make out with your wife and her friends, and still think you'll keep the same relationship.  You may need to sit her down and let her know that this behavior makes u uncomfortable.


I'm working out and am a vegetarian. Everything is just boiled soy this, boiled soy that. What works?!

I'm a vegetarian. Lentils are full of protein.  I've posted a link that is awesome and full of tons of great info.


12 1/2 years we've known each other:\nTogether off-and-on for about 1/3.\nAnother 1/3 reminiscing about time together, talking about how much we missed each other and the things we did together, getting back together for short periods of time, but ended up apart again.\nThat's where we spent the final 1/3 - no communication at all.\n\nI asked her to marry me once about 9 years ago, but it was absolutely the wrong time to do so. I knew it, but felt it my last resort to prevent her from slipping away for a 2nd time.\n\nI'm analytical by nature, so believe me, I've gone over this situation in my head (and on paper) a million times. No matter what answers or paths of action I come up with, within my core, I still love her and want to be with her.\n\nThis wedding should be like a giant neon sign shining bright in the middle of the night sky, but it's not. Why? Well, because we were together as recently as X-mas, and not in just a one-night stand capacity.\n\nYes I have to let go, but I don't know how.

Wow! That's a toughie my friend! Sounds like your ex doesn't know what she wants, and so, neither do you, hence all this confusion. But, that said, she has made her decision, for better or worse - she doesn't want to be with you. So, two choices here, I think. You leave her alone to make her life without you. Or, you become a thorn in her flesh by not accepting that she doesn't want you, and for damn sure, you will lose her friendship that way too. But, I think she is not much of a friend to you anyhow. You thought she would take you to heaven, but she's put you in hell. People like her like to play games with other people's emotions because, as she clearly demonstrates, she is not in control of her own. Can't offer any more help that that, except to assume the guy she is marrying has more money than you.

ok my report is so due in like ASAP so please send yur awsr soon

I believe it was Abraham Lincoln,her is some info...\n\nAbraham Lincoln was born on February 12, 1809, in a one-room log cabin on the 348 acre (1.4 km²) Sinking Spring Farm in the Southeast part of Hardin County, Kentucky, then considered the frontier (now part of LaRue Co., in Nolin Creek, three miles (5 km) south of Hodgenville), to Thomas Lincoln and Nancy Hanks. Lincoln was named after his deceased grandfather, who was scalped in 1786 in an Indian raid. He had no middle name. Lincoln's parents were uneducated, illiterate farmers. When Lincoln became famous, reporters and storytellers often exaggerated the poverty and obscurity of his birth. However Lincoln's father Thomas was a respected and relatively affluent citizen of the Kentucky backcountry. He had purchased the Sinking Spring Farm in December 1808 for $200 cash and assumption of a debt. The farm site is now preserved as part of Abraham Lincoln Birthplace National Historic Site. His parents belonged to a well that had pulled away from a larger church because they refused to support slavery. From a very young age, Lincoln was exposed to anti-slavery sentiment. However, he never joined his parents' church, or any other church, and as a youth ridiculed religion.\n\nThree years after purchasing the property, a prior land claim filed in Hardin Circuit Court forced the Lincolns to move. Thomas continued legal action until he lost the case in 1815. Legal expenses contributed to family difficulties. In 1811, they were able to lease 30 acres (0.1 km²) of a 230 acre (0.9 km²) farm on Knob Creek a few miles away, where they then moved. In a valley of the Rolling Fork River, this was some of the best farmland in the area. At this time, Lincoln's father was a respected community member and a successful farmer and carpenter. Lincoln's earliest recollections are from this farm. In 1815, another claimant sought to eject the family from the Knob Creek farm. Frustrated with litigation and lack of security provided by Kentucky courts, Thomas decided to move to Indiana, which had been surveyed by the federal government, making land titles more secure. It is possible that these episodes motivated Abraham to later learn surveying and become an attorney.\n\nIn 1816, when Lincoln was seven years old, he and his parents moved to Spencer County, Indiana, he would state "partly on account of slavery" and partly because of economic difficulties in Kentucky. In 1818, Lincoln's mother died of "milk sickness" at age thirty four, when Abe was nine. Soon afterwards, Lincoln's father remarried to Sarah Bush Johnston. Sarah Lincoln raised young Lincoln like one of her own children. Years later she compared Lincoln to her own son, saying "Both were good boys, but I must say — both now being dead that Abe was the best boy I ever saw or ever expect to see." (Lincoln, by David Herbert Donald, 1995)\n\nIn 1830, after more economic and land-title difficulties in Indiana, the family settled on government land on a site selected by Lincoln's father in Macon County, Illinois. The following winter was especially brutal, and the family nearly moved back to Indiana. When his father relocated the family to a nearby site the following year, the 22-year-old Lincoln struck out on his own, canoeing down the Sangamon to Sangamon County, Illinois, in the village of New Salem. Later that year, hired by New Salem businessman Denton Offutt and accompanied by friends, he took goods from New Salem to New Orleans via flatboat on the Sangamon, Illinois and Mississippi rivers. While in New Orleans, he may have witnessed a slave auction that left an indelible impression on him for the rest of his life. Whether he actually witnessed a slave auction at that time or not, living in a country with a considerable slave presence, he probably saw similar atrocities from time to time.\n\nHis formal education consisted of perhaps 18 months of schooling from unofficial teac


For this you should know that sound requires a medium to travel and is facilitated by wavwfront formation. These wavefronts (or disturbances) are in form of varying pressure inside the medium (in our case air). The disturbances (or waves) in form of high and low pressure zone travels at what is called the speed of sound in the air originating from source (the Jet engine in this case).\n\nNow when some jetplane approaches the speed of sound it is acually trying to travel with the high and low pressure zones created by himself. Along the length of the aircaraft itself there is a lot variation in air pressure. This disturbs whole of the aerodynamics of the plane and it becomes very difficult to overcome the resulting drag.\n\nThis is what is called a sound barrier


I need to know because I have tiny ones and I dont want to take any pills or anything like that!

You only have two options: surgery or pills. Pills would be a way better choice\n\nAlso: Boobs don't stop growing until your like 25. If you like 16 and worried about it, don't be. You still got plenty of time. Also, later on in life, if you choose to have a baby, they will grow tremendously (from like an A cup to a C cup). So all-in-all, don't worry!


when they hide things from people or tell them half-truths. like look at drug companies, they make it sound like you have to have that drug and you have to pressure your doctor into prescribing it, when you don't understand all the risks involved.\nor when Tylenol PM is special because it's not habit-forming. but they don't tell you it's just Benadryl with a different name, cause then you could get it cheaper.\na LOT of products are the same thing with a different brand on them.\nthe American people are told half the truth all the time.

I hav an essay on the history of kindergarten in the United States due very soon and I'm stuck, I've got the history up to the 1960s but cann't find anything else? any info or ideas where to find info? thanks

All I remember about kindergarten (in the late 60s) was taking a nap, dipping our bubble gum in sour powder out of those pixie sticks and standing on the porch singing songs with all my friends there like we were something special!  I don't remember learning much of anything tho I'm sure we did!  Good luck on the esssay!

looking for a forclosed,bankrupt,repoed property for sale in washington state

you may want to go to the courthouse to see the houses that are about to go into foreclosure. That way you might be able to negotiate with a motivated seller and get a good deal. All these things are public record so the courthouse might be the first place to look. There you could enquire how to look up these records.


What is a good question to ask Dan Brown about his novel 'Angels and Demons'?

Why he had to choose a sexy scientist in the novel + yoga master, I guess that's part of the fiction. Does he ever had any expecience with yoga masters? Is he trying to picture himself through the main caracther? How hard was for you to research about the Vatican secret files?

We are at our wit's end. The sellers lender will not send in a payoff and the closing has been pushed back two months now. We really want this house but feel like we can not keep waiting, it's crazy making. Do we have any rights here?

The fact that the seller has not been able to obtain the pay off information from their lender does not make it necessary for you to agree to postpone the closing date. This is never a condition of sale. If you are utilizing the services of a real estate professional, he/she should have explained the full contract to you. As a matter of fact, there is a form that your agent should have sent to the seller's agent where the seller removes all contingencies.


I need help, considering that genetic variation is the raw material of evolution.

NatBoCheck: Well for starters even creationists believe in microevolution, but then you probably don't know what that is.\n\nGive me a few mins...\n\n"The process of evolution can be summarized in three sentences: Genes mutate. [gene: a hereditary unit] Individuals are selected. Populations evolve."\n\n"The mechanisms of evolution are mutation, natural selection, genetic drift, recombination and gene flow."\n\nMutation\n\nThe cellular machinery that copies DNA sometimes makes mistakes. These mistakes alter the sequence of a gene. This is called a mutation. There are many kinds of mutations. A point mutation is a mutation in which one "letter" of the genetic code is changed to another. Lengths of DNA can also be deleted or inserted in a gene; these are also mutations. Finally, genes or parts of genes can become inverted or duplicated. Typical rates of mutation are between 10-10 and 10-12 mutations per base pair of DNA per generation. \n\nNatural Selection\n\nSome types of organisms within a population leave more offspring than others. Over time, the frequency of the more prolific type will increase. The difference in reproductive capability is called natural selection. Natural selection is the only mechanism of adaptive evolution; it is defined as differential reproductive success of pre- existing classes of genetic variants in the gene pool.\n\nThe most common action of natural selection is to remove unfit variants as they arise via mutation. [natural selection: differential reproductive success of genotypes] In other words, natural selection usually prevents new alleles from increasing in frequency. This led a famous evolutionist, George Williams, to say "Evolution proceeds in spite of natural selection."\n\nNatural selection can maintain or deplete genetic variation depending on how it acts.\n\nGenetic Drift\n\nAllele frequencies can change due to chance alone. This is called genetic drift. Drift is a binomial sampling error of the gene pool. What this means is, the alleles that form the next generation's gene pool are a sample of the alleles from the current generation. When sampled from a population, the frequency of alleles differs slightly due to chance alone.\n\nAlleles can increase or decrease in frequency due to drift. The average expected change in allele frequency is zero, since increasing or decreasing in frequency is equally probable. A small percentage of alleles may continually change frequency in a single direction for several generations just as flipping a fair coin may, on occasion, result in a string of heads or tails. A very few new mutant alleles can drift to fixation in this manner.\n\nRecombination\n\nEach chromosome in our sperm or egg cells is a mixture of genes from our mother and our father. Recombination can be thought of as gene shuffling. Most organisms have linear chromosomes and their genes lie at specific location (loci) along them. Bacteria have circular chromosomes. In most sexually reproducing organisms, there are two of each chromosome type in every cell. For instance in humans, every chromosome is paired, one inherited from the mother, the other inherited from the father. When an organism produces gametes, the gametes end up with only one of each chromosome per cell. Haploid gametes are produced from diploid cells by a process called meiosis.\n\nIn meiosis, homologous chromosomes line up. The DNA of the chromosome is broken on both chromosomes in several places and rejoined with the other strand. Later, the two homologous chromosomes are split into two separate cells that divide and become gametes. But, because of recombination, both of the chromosomes are a mix of alleles from the mother and father.\n\nRecombination creates new combinations of alleles. Alleles that arose at different times and different places can be brought together. Recombination can occur not only between genes, but within genes as well. Recombination within a gene can fo


I just received a Request and Writ for Garnishment from Wolpoff & Abramsom Debt Collection lawyer. (They are the worst. They don't want to work with you. What you can afford to pay is never enough!) Well this garnishment request is from a credit union that I have NEVER used. I have never had an account there nor has anyone ever written me a check from that bank. Why would they do this? Are they planning on doing this at all the banks/credit unions in my town? Has anyone ever heard of this? I don't have a checking account and because of this I probably never will again. \n\nThanks for the help!\n\nKim

Not sure if the above is accurate.  I don't think a bank can give out any info without a subpeona, and I can't imagine them going to every single bank.  \n\nMy guess...somewhere, somehow, they got word you had an account there, and they are fishing for it.\n\nMany states now have requirements where the judge can order a financial disclosure from you, telling your bank accounts and property.  You must not be in one of those states.


I like her style,  her very condident style. She is a marvelous singer with her splendid  voice, full of sensation.

I don't particularly like her.. but those hits are quite nice  anyway.


I have a graph that starts out at (7.5, 235), goes to (15, 460), goes to (22.5, 235), goes to (30, 10), goes to (37.5, 235).  I know that the horizontal stretch is something to do with how wide the period is, but are they the same????  I missed this week of school.

Take the difference between the x values.\nThe period is the horizontal stretch, which is also called the wavelength.  They're all one and the same, from one crest of a wave (or any other part) to the next.\nI'm talking about sine and cosine waves here.


i just keep seeing him on tv....and when i do i want to puke because he seems so slimy. are the people in that state that ignorant or just that stupid to think that he is out for anyonelse even after he got away with murder 30 yrs ago.

He's a stumble-bumb drunkard who should be in jail for negligent homicide for not helping Mary Jo.  Instead, he ran around for eight hours trying to get someone else to take the blame.  That he keeps getting elected says a lot about the mentality of the people of the state of Massachusetts. He got thrown out of Harvard for cheating and he cheated on his wife Joan and turned her into an alcoholic.


The Citrobacter is also non-endospore forming. Also need to know plan for identifying the source of the infection and how to prevent further infection.

Citrobacter diversu is a member fo the faimly Enterobacteriaceae which are a large group of closely related species that are found in soil, water, decaying mater and the large intestines of humans, animals and insects. \n\nThe members of this group of bacteria are referred to as the enterics and are responsible for the majority of nosocomial (hospital-acquired) infections seen today. It's estimated that 2 million patients per year (5-10% of the total number of hospital patients) will acquire an infection while hospitalized.\n\nMany of the organisms isolated from nosocomial infections are resistant to multiple anitmicrobial agents.

Anyone know if all of those kids belonged to them, or some where from another marriage in the show?  And how many of them were there?

Yes, they were all thier kids. True story about the Waltons it takes place in the Depression & then into WWII. John & Olivia had 8 kids, 3 girls & 5 boys. 1 of the boys died at birth. He was a twin to Jim-Bob. John & Olivia's children names are John-Boy, Jason, Mary Ellen, Ben, Erin, twins Jim-Bob & Joseph and Elizabeth. Joseph died at birth. John's parents also lived with them - Esther & Zeb. The Waltons was based on the life of the Hamner family. Earl Hamner JR was the show's creator. This show was based on his life growing up.


Because animals living in the city can find food 24-7, and have been doing so for more than ten generations, do these new city born animals know how to hibernate? If you take a city racoon and dump him in the middle of the woods, would he survive?

In theory they should, as hibernation (and most other circannual cycles) is controlled from within my 'biological clocks' (just a bunch of hormones and other stuff).\nAs long as the animal builds up to the time of hibernation properly (ie feeds lots etc) it should be ok....


Recently she wanted to break up,as her husband is coming back(they were separated) But then she changed her mind,even that she knows the risk (her child could be taken away,etc.)I don't understand what is on her mind! So now she wants to go both ways! What to do!?

"she wants to have her cake and eat it too!" what that means is she wants to keep you both around for her own reasons. you gotta make her choose because the longer you stay and let her think its okay, she's gonna keep you both around. if she won't choose, walk away and don't look back.

Well, it would take some hours to determine why and I may still be wrong.  Since you are advertising web design services, I won't offend by saying that you messed something up.  However; if I were in your shoes, I think I'd go straight to the source and email them or look at everything I could with as many sets of trusted eyes as I could.  Either of these things may have been already done.  As a last resort, the links that are found at the site below have some good solid information on the search engine game.  And it is frequently updated.  I hope this may help you out.


This seems rather silly to me, because really why else would someone drink? Of couse they don't always get completely trashed every single time, but people aren't exactly drinking to stay sober.

Drinking to get drunk makes NO sense. You can go out, have a few drinks in a social atmosphere and go home sober. It's mostly another thing to do. You just need to know how much you can tolerate. Drinking to get drunk puts you and innocent people around you at risk. If you want to be reckless, stay at home, get drunk and go to bed.

Are we concealing the true cost of our capitalist conquests?\nWe're not only fighting a war against Islam, be they "ni&&er$" or "sand ni&&er$", it's a war against truth. The truth of 9/11, globalization, casualties of war, Isreali OCCUPATION, the truth of New Orleans! We, Americans, were left without food on rooftops, trying to swallow promises of salvation! No help before no help after!\n\nA hateful religion such as the Nation of Islam can be allowed to exist. Then "uppity" negroes begin to seek true empowerment through peaceful submision to Allah. When we Surrender to God and no man, Malcolm had to die! Why?\n\nALLAH is TRUE!\nAre you?\n\nAllah bless America \nand guide us to peace!

I am very athletic and in fairly good shape. I'm 6'0 168 lbs. I exercise outside 2 hours minimum everyday. I am a high school senior and i have always sweat more than everyone else in my Physed class. By the end of class, my entire shirt is soaked in sweat but my peers will sweat only a little bit. My dad also sweats with minimal activity. Is this genitic or just my body type?

Dear Swampy,\n\nSomeone with more knowledge on the subject may tell you to stay away from such treatments, but I have a friend that got botox treatments for her underarms to reduce sweating.\n\nDoesnt sound completely healthy to me, preventing your body from performing a natural reaction (cooling your body) but if your worried about the amount you sweat, may be worth checking out.

Ok this question is about a same sex couple who have been together for 37 years.Actually one of the people,I know very well.Because it is my mother.Helover and her had an argument about her brother moving in.Well about two weeks later her partner up and left while she was out,and went to the courthouse.She filed for a PFA(Protection from abuse),and got the court order.But all that she said was lies!She said my mother threatened her life,held a gun to her,threw things at her,etc,etc.But NONE of this is true.She did it to try to get out of the mortgage that they had together!And also in the pfa staed that she wants my mothe(her partner)to pay for a new place for her to live?Does anyone know the laws for same sex relationships in the state of pennsylvania?Aftershe filed this pfa the sherrif's dept actually came to my mother's house and removed all of her guns.That she used for hunting purposes only!All based on lies!As you can imagine there is ALOT more to this.

Pennsylvania allows PFA petitions for same-sex couples.  Your mother's ex-partner can ask for your mother to be evicted from property they jointly own.  This will be decided by a judge.\n\nThe only way to fight this is in court.  Your mother must obtain proof that denies the charges, including witnesses and any documentation to show that none of it happened.  Of course her ex will try to prove the opposite.\n\nYour mother should get a lawyer.  If she cannot afford one then she should be prepared with whatever proof she can get together to present to the judge.  The best she can hope for is an amicable settlement of some kind, and she should prepare for the likelihood that she might have to sell the house if she can't cover the mortgage on her own.

I need to make a Y=Mx+B equation (without using a graph or table) Could you please walk me through (at least) one of these problems to help me? Thank you so much!\n\n(0.5, 6) and (0,4)\n\n(6,9) and (6,0)\n\n(-5, 2) and (3,2)

M is the slope which you get by subtracting y coordinates and x coordinates IN THE SAME ORDER, and then dividing.  In your first example, change in y is 6-4 = 2, change in x is 0.5-0 = 0.5.  Then divide change in y by change in x, 2 by 0.5, to get M = 4.  \n\nThen pick one of the points, say the second.  y - 4 = 4(x - 0).  Then do just a little algebra.\ny - 4 = 4(x - 0)\ny = 4x + 4.\n\nSome special cases.  Your 2nd pair have the same x coordinate, so the line is vertical, and the equation is x = 6.  In your 3rd pair the y coordinates are the same so the line is horizontal, y = 2.\n\nSince the slope is a fraction, change in y over change in x, you need to be able to do fraction arithmetic.

im just wondering what girls like in a guy and what guys like in a girl :)

Guy:\n\nSomeone who is independent, enjoys and appreciates life genuinely. Someone who is secure with himself (not in the macho-sense, but in the self-accepting sense).\nSomeone who likes women. (Someone who doesn't see women as the ultimate goal to achieve and works to attain her, but rather takes delight in her as a person and chooses to be with her)\nSomeone who WILL not revolve his life around hers.\nSomeone who WILL not allow himself to be led by her.\n\nBottom line: A woman wants a man who can be the one to take her along for the ride and not the way around.\n\n^ If you need clarification to that last line, just ask.\n\nAnyhow, everything I described above is the source of attraction. That's why there's those people that seem to raise attention when they enter a room. \n.

A contracted company delivers product to our customers.  Can we train their employees or do we have to train a designated person who will then be responsible to carry out the training?

More details here would be helpful.\n\nThat said, I am unaware of any express statutory guidance on this, so that leaves you with two things to consider: (a) the terms of your own contract; and (b) common sense.\n\nMany IC contracts have express provisions that prohibit the IC from engaging in acts that would be detrimental to the company hiring them.  For instance, prohibitions against disclosing confidential info, trade secrets, stealing customers or hiring away employees.   Read your fine print.  Assuming your contract doesn't expressly prohibit the training you describe, then you just need to put your common sense hat on and ask: is what I'm doing hurting or damaging to the company?  If the answer is "yes", you run the risk of not only losing your own deal, but also incurring damage claims from the company.


The questionnaire is an either or type, not writing out answers. I want to be honest, but not have it come back to haunt me if I ever want a referral!

It is a funny thing, they say, about bosses.  What they say is seldom what they mean, even if they mean what they say.  \n\nAsking a person for an honest opinion is still in hope that the opinion will be good.  \n\nWhat I would encourage you to do is be honest, but be positive.  I would focus overwhelmingly on the positive attributes, but be honest about ways to help his business succeed (assuming he owns the business), or ways to become an "even better boss".  Feel free to add in a touch of humor, if that will lighten the mood, (such as, "I know you have it tough dealing with an employee with me, but").  \n\nIf there are some tough things you really want to say, let him know your intentions in answering the questions upfront (I have grown to appreciate and trust you and your wife, and will answer as honestly as I can in hopes of helping you get ahead).  That would mean a lot to me if I had handed you the questionnaire.


Lots of Americans I have spoken to know very little about where I live. Some don't know it's separate to the mainland and some think England is in London! Impress me.

WOW....I must be totally off base from the other answerers because the first thing that came to mind when I glanced at the question was BAD TEETH.  BUT.....I guess that wouldn't be impressive would it.  Were you asking for geographical info?  If so I have nothing for you....but hey do YOU know the capital of Texas?


Thanks its for school so thanks in advance. The question is basically when have there been great discoveries in Science that employed the use of models.

By far the most famous was the discovery of the structure of DNA by Watson and Crick, using essentially a tinker-toy ball and stick model.


Yes, this is basically Vicodin.  It is a combination of Tylenol and an opioid pain medication and is prescribed for moderate to severe pain.  In cases of overdose, the hydrocodone can cause respiratory depression and the apap (Tylenol) can cause liver damage.  More commonly reported side effects are dizziness, sedation/drowsiness, constipation, nausea, and itchiness.  And yes, in some cases it can lead to dependence.

Despite precautions, it may be almost impossible to decontaminate human skin. As well, needle coring may result in a small core of patient skin entering the needle at the time of blood collection and viable bacteria may be associated with deeper layers of skin, despite adequate surface disinfection. CBS has recently introduced whole blood collection bags with a sample diversion pouch for removal of an initial aliquot of 30-40 mL of donor blood. This approach reduces, but does not entirely eliminate, the rate of contamination by skin flora. However it does not decrease the rate of bacterial contamination due to other potentially more serious causes, in particular asymptomatic donor bacteremia.


my name is Andrew. i am 13 years old.i am 165cm and 70 kg. to be honest, i want to be tall, at least 185cm.

it will make us tall as its good for the bones and they'll grow faster.


Does it have a meaning or is it just a word that someone made up?

Two possibilities:\n\n1) JABBA Jamaica Amateur Body Building Association (see dictionary.com)\n\nor 2) "Jabba, the Hut," a slug-like character from the Star Wars series who was reknowned for his grotesque weight, food indulgence, depravity and was most famous for his enslavement of Princess Leia.\n\nor 3) JABBA, an acronym for Just Another Brain Boggling Acronym.  \n\nI prefer #2.\n\n\nHope this helps!

This reaction for producing Emulsifier(surfactants).

To esterify a carboxylic acid (including oleic acid), you need to add the appropriate alcohol (polyethylene glycol) and an acid to catalyze the reaction.  However, to drive the reaction to completion, you must remove water that is produced as a coproduct.  You can do this by heating (boiling off the water).\n\nAlternatively, you can convert the acid to an acid chloride (using, for instance, thionyl chloride) and then reacting the acid chloride with the alcohol.  This is usually done in a non-nucleophillic base, such as pyridine, to react with the HCl that is produced during esterification.

LUKE 17:26\n And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man.\n\nMALACHI 4:5,6\n 5 Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD:\n 6 And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse.\n \nMATTHEW 17:11\n And Jesus answered and said unto them, Elias truly shall first come, and restore all things.\n \nREVELATION 10:7\n But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.\n\nAMOS 3:7\n Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets.\n \nYou may also post your answers here...\nhttp://groups.yahoo.com/group/bibletruths_forbelievers/

It's hard to say. Many times when you take things like that out of context, they can lose a lot of their meaning. However, it seems to me that he was saying that he would send prophets to us to help show us the way.


I have been with my fiance for almost a year...I love him every much and he is wonderful to me and my kids..but I just dont feel veery attracted to him anymore...when ever he wants to have sex I just look at him like he has lost his damn mind...I think it is because a few weeks back I found out that he had and went and bought some porn and lied to me about it and he has done this more than once so someone tell me what I should do cause I dont want to end things with him but I also want to start having sex with him agian so please help!

He is still the same man as you fell in love with. He is good to you and your kids and thats all that counts. He went and bought some porn, so what, at least he's not cheating with another girl. Porn is an addiction that all of us men have we cant help it. Maybe you can use the porn to brighten up your sex life. It sounds to me as if you have grown comfortable with him instead of wanting to bed him every time you see him. Get some spice back into your love life and spice things up he will love it (and not but porn) and you will reap the benifits too. Hope that helps you out.\n\nJay


or where i can find out what channel it will show on in my area? Cw network is the Wb and UPN joining forces

I have not been able to find a website yet either, but how I understand it is that it will stay on one of the two existing stations it is on in your market. In our market our WB will switch over to CW on September 6th. For those that have only one of these stations in their market they will have it on that station.


Sometimes when i am on the phone or i am talking to my girlfriend, I find myself saying the same things over again. Or i just can not think of anything else.

Where can i get free tutorials to learn spanish language?

I don't know where you can get free tutorials, but I would suggest volunteering for an ESL (English as a Second Language) course. Most people find it easier to learn a language from another who actually speaks it. It would be a mutual learning experience, and, of course, free. \n   Otherwise, try your local library. They usually have books and audiotapes on this topic that may help you.


I was told Power  equals force times velocity.

The Gravity Economy\n\nGravity as a power source is fascinating. It is more abundant than hydrogen, more far reaching than solar power. It exists in dark places with still winds and in climates cold and warm. We've been tapping its power for thousands of years -- through water wheels, dams, and clockwork counter weights.\n\nGeothermal power is a form of gravity power at work. The pressure of the outer earth on its core keeps things hot, rocks and metals, molten. Temperatures can reach 9,000 degrees, almost as hot as the Sun. The original heat may date back to the formation of the earth, which was also the result of gravitational forces. Geothermal power is being used cleanly and successfully in areas where the heat of the earth is relatively easy to tap.\n\nHowever, most of gravity's power comes from devices that use the flow of water. Precipitation conveniently drops water for us in high places in the form of snow and rain, then gravity does the work of transporting it downhill to the sea. Dams and waterwheels are the best known examples. These systems work great and produce no emissions. In fact, by acting on the water of the Columbia River, gravity is powering my computer right now.


HDD information:\nDiamondMax Plus9\n120GB ATA/133 HDD\n\nSymptoms:\n1) Not detected by BIOS.\n2) A ringing tones like music from HDD for some time then it stopped. The sound heard in time intervals.\n3) Checked with power max (the diagnostic utility provided by Maxtor Corporation) but it also failed to detect the HDD.

Oooo, bad noises. If it was a problem with the circuit board I could give a suggestion, but those noises mean that the "heads" that read the data off the platters were hitting something inside the dirve, and from your description of the sounds, I'd say what they were hitting was the platters, where data is stored in a hdd :( Bad news, that. Some of your data would probably still be recoverable, but not at home, not without a clean room. There are companies who specialize in this, but it's expensive, and they usually charge by the megabyte. Google "data recovery specialists" if you want to find one near you.


Nope - Knights fan here. Sorry about last week but like the post above me mentions - at least u guys didn't get the spoon last year :( You're gonna smash Manly this week!!


usa claimed that they r invading Iraq to disarm it from the WMD they have and they said that they r SURE that Iraq have these WMD and r denegerous to the whole world!!!, then after the invasion usa never found any WMD in Iraq which was the main  reason for the invasion!!!\nNow,after the usa was found (LIYER) ,and caused so many inocent Iraqi ppl to die ,shouldnt the UN punish the usa for its invasion to another country ,and cheating the international community and causing all these deathes and destroying another country? \nisnt that fair?

yes they should ..but do you know how?? they are punishing them self's !! the pillions that they spend over war..the thousands of soldiers died their.. the hate that they gained all over the world !! they are doing pretty mush well in punishing them self's !!

See they were right, and it takes about 2 to 3 years of LOW taxes to for the economy to bounce.\n\nCAN YOU DISPUTE THIS, where is YO evidence ???

All it takes is a war - and GWB started one for us. Any banker will tell you, during an economic slowdown, "All we need is a war." Production goes up, prices go up, profit goes up, unemployment goes down - war is the answer to all good Christian American prayers. "Dear Lord, please send us a country to invade with evil men, women and children to slaughter. In Jesus' name we pray." Amen!


Hi. I am 20 y/o dude who has a sorry excuse for a beard. Seriously, all of my friends have full beards and I only have a little bit of hair under my chin. I know it's not genetic, because my dad had a full beard when he was 20 (based on his pictures).My cousin (who is a girl) told me few months ago that I have to shave my beard often to grow a good beard. Is that true? I dunno whether I should accept girl's advice on a man's stuff. Does anyone know how to grow a beard (like a goatee)? It's rediculous, lol. My face barely changed since I was 18.

There are basically three main things which affect hair growth.  Diet, hormones and genetics.  If you are 100% certain this is not genetic then you must be suffering terribly from malnutrition or have a major testosterone defficiency.\nYou can tell if you are very malnurished pretty easily.  \nYou can also spot testosterone defficiency a mile off (you'd probably have a very feminine figure, have a womanly voice etc.)\nSo chances are it is genetic.  Just because your dad could have passed for Gandalf at 20 would not mean you would have the same massive beard unless you are his clone and 100% genetically identical.  I mean you don't have the same shoe size as your mother, and I bet you and your dad are not exactly the same height down to a 16th of an inch, your have a range of characteristics which you will share with one or both of your parents,  some characteristics which are an amalgamation of theirs, and some which they have carried in their DNA which they do not exhibit.\n\nShaving does not encourage hair growth.  It will not help you to grow a beard, this is an old wives tale and has been scientifically disproved.  It's not even logical - if shaving makes hair grow then a 90 year old man who shaved twice day for 70 years (51,000+shaves) then he should be able to grow a great big Gandalf beard in a week?  Of course not!\n\nYour beard will improve with age.  A reasonably high % of men can't grow a decent beard until their mid to late 20's.  The only thing I can suggest if this is really life and death important is to pay for cosmetic hair transplant surgery - expensive and painful but it works.\nIf you don't want the surgery you could wear a false beard, or try some kind of crazy miracle cure hair restorer.  Or just wait a couple more years - probably the safest and saneist option!


My boss set me up on out XP at work, but he didnt give me administrative privelage.  I can't even get my yahoo toolbar.  Is there any way around this?

One loophole in using programs is that some administrators overlook setting rights on the USB ports. You can launch an executable from a USB stick drive if the USB rights are not restrictive enough. In doing this you are now able to potentially bring in proxy information and may be able to d/l info to your USB drive.

—There is no good reason why immigration should be absolutely prohibited. On the other hand, the question that the careful restriction of immigration is imperative. Clearly, it is our duty to accept only such immigrants as show promise of becoming capable and efficient American citizens. It is also clearly our duty to accept even this type of immigrant only in such numbers as we can conveniently assimilate. We must not be selfish with America, but we should not be misled by the statement that anyone in  has a “right” to make his home in this country. Those who come to this country are personally benefited, no doubt, but unrestricted immigration may lower the tone of American life and permanently injure our social and political institutions. America is for the present generation, but is also for posterity. The millions of unborn have as much right to be considered as have the millions now clamoring at our gates.In the earlier part of our national history free land was abundant .

i could not have said it better my friend.what is wrong with trying to protect your country way of life,what have we become when it is wrong to defend your country.and not look for the truth of the problem of illegal immigration,the true problem is mexican gov. not the American peoples love for their country.

these questions pertains to my inventory management class

Production Planning is scheduling the fabrication/ manufacture and or production of products needed to met your customer's demands or your own warehouse demands (stock).This could also include scheduling of labor or materials. Material management would be more warehouse/inventory related. Raw materials (for manufacturing), finished goods (for your customers), handling inbound and outbound freight, materials on hand etc.


im fairly young and everyone is startin to get into datin... girl i liked and i asked her to a dance, i broke up with her friend who she is fightin with a week before i asked her. she said she would think about it and the day of she said no because my friend asked her and she said yes to him. my friend didnt know i liked her but i knew he liked her the day after i asked her. i really like her even though i dont want to and i have to idea what to do.

Well who do you like better her or her friend? That's how you truly know!

I am considering attempting a raw food diet.  Can anyone attest to its effectiveness in improving overall health?

A raw food diet creates major improvements in health. The reasons are not known, but the experience is unmistakable. Weight normalizes, which generally means a reduction in fat. At the same time, a person feels extremely energized. It's as if energy would rather be burned up than converted to fat.\n\nThere seems to be a major shift in physiology which makes one feel highly energized from raw food. I can only theorize why this occurs. It is quite likely that a large part of cooked food can only go into fat production, because heat and acid alter it making it unmetabolizable in other complex processes. By contrast, raw food should break down into components which can be directly metabolized in a variety of cells.\n\nHealth gets so refined and perfected with a raw food diet that a person notices effects of all types. The result is an important source of information about nutrition and quality of food.\n\nFor example, it is noticeable that sucrose (table sugar) goes entirely into fat production rather than immediate energy. Sucrose splits into glucose and fructose. Muscles use glucose but not fructose. Furthermore, the splitting probably does not occur during digestion, and then only fat cells can use the disaccharide.\n\nOne very obvious improvement resulting from a raw food diet is in the digestive system. Raw food digests marvelously well, so a person does not notice the acid, bile and residual effects of digestion that go with a cooked food diet.\n\nAdding a little bit of cooked food to a raw food diet doesn't work well, because acid is then produced in the stomach, and it is bad for raw food. Acid and raw food tend to create indigestion.\n\nA problem with raw foods is that they are the highest in pesticides. Organic raw foods may be necessary, unless a person is very clever in working around the worst pesticides. The effects are quite noticeable, which allows adjustments to be made.\n\nThe usual assumption is that the only supplement which is needed in theory is vitamin B12, because it is primarily found in meat. It originates with microbes, and very little is needed. Outside link on B12\n\nHowever, I find that copper and zinc are also needed with a vegetarian diet, because plant material is very low in these minerals compared to meat. These minerals are toxic while being absorbed, so they should be taken in small quantities. Other vitamins or minerals can be taken if desired. Even vitamin pills should not be taken in large quantities, because they are powerful reactants and can destroy organs, particularly when they contain byproducts of synthesis.\n\nI think everyone should take B vitamins, but in small quantities. I find 20 milligrams per day to be the right amount for the main ones. Pills have to be cut up to get that size. B vitamins store best when separated into each type, because they tend to react with each other. Folic acid deteriorates into a toxic substance. It might need to be replaced every two to three months depending upon humidity.\n\nAlmost everyone needs vitamin D. It transports calcium into cells. It's easy to get too much Vitamin D, particularly in the form of capsules. Dry D pills are safer. There is more than enough calcium in food when taking vitamin D. There is not much more calcium in dairy than other sources, and the hormones in dairy are not desirable.\n\nNormally, salt is not used with raw food. I find that eating some salt seems to be physiologically beneficial with raw food.\n\nFruits and vegetables digest through different processes when raw. Eat fruit in the morning and vegetables later.\n\nLearning to eat a raw food diet is mostly trial and error. Whatever is available and one wants to eat is generally adequate. Protein is found in raw nuts and seeds, such as sunflower seeds, sesame seeds, filberts, etc., and sprouts are also a good source of protein. Plant proteins do not have the same balance of amino acids as animal protein, so a variety of sources are needed.\n\nSprouts are of

tell us im England wich one is the most rich club and why man- uinited can not by players from Kenya East frica?

firstly i'm a liverpool fan. I can't answer your first question because quite frankly i couldn't care less, however Man Utd are the richer of the clubs although they are now under a massive debt thanks to Malcolm Glaser their new owner. I don't think this will necessarily hurt Alex Fergusons spending, however with rumours of Henry going to Barcelona Arsenal may have more money too spend this summer. Man Utd are only really missing a midfield maestro to replace the chasm left by Roy Keane so wont need to bring in too many players.\n\nBelieve me if the players are good enough a manager will not care where they come from.\n\nAt Liverpool we have 2 Malians in the first team and a 17 year old Ghanain in the reserves. We have also offered a trial to an 11 year old kenyon kid called Mohamed Suleiman so clubs do look all over the world for players. Arsenal and United are no different.

But the guilt is building and he'll probably tell soon.\n\nRuthie almost spilled Matt's secret (that he married Sarah on their first date) and called Sarah and found out that Matt & Sarah have an even bigger secret..so she told the family the original secret and all their jaws dropped.

Can the moon's effect on gravity and tides vary or affect the speed of the earth's rotation i.e. speed it up/slow it down ever so slightly during monthly moon phases? If so, is it a stretch to assume that it might affect the space-time continuum ever so slightly as well?

No, the apparent "phase" of the moon is relative to where you are on earth at a particular time and the moon's position in relation to the earth and the sun, it does not effect the earth's rotation.  That being said the moon has had an impact on the earth's rotation, and we can assume that it continues to exert the same gravitational forces it has through antiquity.  This isn't exactly true because the moon's orbit is actually getting larger at a rate of about 3.8 centimeters per year (negligible change)*. \n\nAs to stretching these facts to assume that it might affect the space-time continuum ever so slightly I have read several scholarly articles dealing with gravitational forces and their affect on time. Of all of these Stephen Hawking's were the easiest for me to understand and the most interesting to read.  You might want to check out his books "A Brief History of Time" and "The Universe in a Nutshell", both should be available at your local library.  Whether gravity exerted by the moon is strong enough to influence time on earth or not I’m not sure but I would assume so.  If I remember correctly the closer you are to a center of gravity the faster time passes relative to someone farther away.  The visible phases of the moon would still have nothing to do with the affect on time however.  \n\nThat was an interesting question, I hope my answer was of some use to you!\n\nRegards,\n\nArmus\n*thanks for correcting me on the orbital change Answer Guy.

My credit rating is not so good and I don't qualify for financial aid?

If you can, try applying with a co-signer -- even if your lender approves you on your own, they might give you a lower rate just for having a co-signer (example: Sallie Mae).\n\nFor private educational loans, consider the following loans/companies:\n\nSallie Mae Signature Loan: http://www.salliemae.com\nCitibank CitiAssist Loan: http://www.studentloan.com\nBank of America Private Loan: http://www.bankofamerica.com/studentbanking/index.cfm?template=stb_bac_loans\nWells Fargo Collegiate Loan: https://www.wellsfargo.com/wf/student/loans/undergrad/collegiate\nCitizens Bank Undergrad Loans: http://www.citizensbank.com/pf/studentloans/applications/undergraduateloan.aspx [May be harder to qualify for w/o a cosigner.]\nAccess Group Private Loans: http://www.accessgroup.org/loan_terms/General/Eligibility/General_Eligibility.htm?Template=General_EligibilityInfo.htm\nCampus Door: http://www.campusdoor.com [more of a last resort, though they have been known to approve younger students with super-short credit histories]

If you believe that Islam is spoken of in the Holy Bible, then it only points to one truth, that the Holy Bible is true. I just am not sure that it is about Islam that is being spoken of.\n\nIf the Bible is true and the Qur'an is true as you claim, then there are already two truths. All believe that there is one God so then why are there two truths?\n\nJust asking?
