The government are directing no financial help towards proper training for care workers in homes, and they pay those who care for their relatives or friends at home a disgraceful Carer's Allowance of £45 per week.  Yes - that's per WEEK - not per day.  Carers at home relieve the government of the necessity of paying for an old or disabled person's care elsewhere.  Residential homes often charge as much as £500 per week - nursing homes even more.  This situation is appalling, yet the government turns a blind eye to it all, and refuses even to provide proper training for care workers or properly monitored homes for old people.  The way we treat our elders reflects on our society. Our population is ageing - soon it won't be someone else's plight you're discussing - it will be your own.  When you have finally sold everything you own, to fund your care in a home - care which is often closer to deliberate neglect, and even cruelty - will you then care about the plight of the elderly?

Apparently when you ask "we" make a better deal, what you really mean is government, bureaucracy, etc.  No, you can't do it that way, not with us Baby Boomers growing old the way we are.  Instead, we need mutual aid societies.  There are plenty of precedents for this concept in history, but they fell out of use when the government took over with all sorts of "help."\n\nA senior or disabled person can often be a major asset to a family.  If they do no more than pass on the history of the family, teach the younger members, be there when the rest of the family is too busy, they earn their keep.  For those who do not have families, a co-op or group home, privately owned, can be the surrogate family.  I was actively involved in co-ops when I was in college, and just as I graduated, the concept of co-ops was spreading off college campuses and into the rest of the world. Quite specifically, the idea of co-ops with a broad age range became the big experiment of that day (1970s). \n\nA housing co-op of a dozen or so adults can afford a large enough house that the first floor bedrooms can go to those who find stairs difficult.  An elevator can be installed.  The older people are there, can answer the phone, look out for the kids, help with the wisdom of their long experience, and do such chores as they are physically able to do.  They might contribute a little more to the start-up costs, due to having had longer to save, and less time to be productive.  But it is quite amazing how productive an old person can be if they are given the opportunity.  I know people in their 70s and 80s who are still quite capable of being useful, and I suspect it goes even higher in some cases.  By the time they really do need more care than they are giving, they will have earned it.\n\nI retain the idea that whatever we do for ourselves, we do easier, less expensively and more satisfyingly than what we insist be done through an enormous and wasteful government program.


you know when we build tracks for train i think every where int he world we put peics of stone as a layer to support the tracks why?

The rocks provide a stable base called a Track Ballast which the railroad ties rest on. The crushed stone is used for the drainage of water, and to create an even surface.


Pills and devices are scams.\n\nYour penis is like an artist’s paintbrush.  It’s not how long it is that matters.  It’s how skillfully you use it and how many different brush strokes you know.\n\nThese penis size questions come up again and again on this site.  Women almost always say it doesn’t matter to them.  And if it actually does matter to a small minority of women, so what?  There are still plenty left who don’t think it’s very important.  \n\nWhat’s far more important is whether you’re skilled at using your penis to satisfy your woman.  Can you last as long as you want?  Can you vary the depth of your strokes, the pace of them, the angle of them, so that you can offer your woman a little teasing and unpredictability at times?  Are you skilled enough at other ways to pleasure her, so that penis-vagina intercourse is only one of the things on the menu you offer her?  \n\nEven if you can’t do all of these things at present, these are all things you can LEARN to do.  But you can’t learn to have a bigger penis.\n\nAnd let’s not forget, it’s usually the person attached to the penis that decides whether a woman finds you appealing or not.  You could be hung like a horse, but if you’re an inconsiderate jerk you still won’t be very attractive to women.

A recent letter to the editor of the Arizona Republic claims, "...during the eight years of the Clinton Administration:  Just 61 indictments or criminal charges, 33 convictions, 14 imprisonments, and the president lost his license as a lawyer."\n\nIs all of the above true?

The Clinton Legacy\n\n\nThe Progressive Review\n\n\nThis list was compiled at the end of the Clinton administration.\n\n\nOur Clinton Scandal Index\n\n\nRECORDS SET\n\n- The only president ever impeached on grounds of personal malfeasance \n- Most number of convictions and guilty pleas by friends and associates* \n- Most number of cabinet officials to come under criminal investigation \n- Most number of witnesses to flee country or refuse to testify \n- Most number of witnesses to die suddenly \n- First president sued for sexual harassment. \n- First president accused of rape. \n- First first lady to come under criminal investigation\n- Largest criminal plea agreement in an illegal campaign contribution case\n- First president to establish a legal defense fund.\n- First president to be held in contempt of court\n- Greatest amount of illegal campaign contributions \n- Greatest amount of illegal campaign contributions from abroad\n- First president disbarred from the US Supreme Court and a state court\n\n* According to our best information, 40 government officials were indicted or convicted in the wake of Watergate. A reader computes that there was a total of 31 Reagan era convictions, including 14 because of Iran-Contra and 16 in the Department of Housing & Urban Development scandal. 47 individuals and businesses associated with the Clinton machine were convicted of or pleaded guilty to crimes with 33 of these occurring during the Clinton administration itself. There were in addition 61 indictments or misdemeanor charges. 14 persons were imprisoned. A key difference between the Clinton story and earlier ones was the number of criminals with whom he was associated before entering the White House.\n\nUsing a far looser standard that included resignations, David R. Simon and D. Stanley Eitzen in Elite Deviance, say that 138 appointees of the Reagan administration either resigned under an ethical cloud or were criminally indicted. Curiously Haynes Johnson uses the same figure but with a different standard in "Sleep-Walking Through History: America in the Reagan Years: "By the end of his term, 138 administration officials had been convicted, had been indicted, or had been the subject of official investigations for official misconduct and/or criminal violations.

I knew all along that I shouldn't put off finishing a degree.\nTook various computer classes in the 80's and early 90's to keep up on emerging new trends but plateaued with what I needed to get by with the job I had and the boss' limited investment in technology. Rather than finish the degree and move on to better jobs I became an integral, ensconsed, and depended upon employee who enjoyed my autonomy too confortably. Then one day the 2 partners I was an admin asst to announced on a Thur am that the following daythat they would be closing the doors, walking away before the wolves set in and forclosed on mounting outstanding debts. We had 24 hrs notice to take our personal belongings out while we could. No obsticles have been put in place to interupt what unemploymnt we got or job referrals . But having been burned out of business after over 30 years I hoped that I could put my developed skills as an admin asst to use in some other industry but can't get my foot in the door. Any advice?

1. Consider yourself blessed. If your bosses would just pick up and close shop the way they did, did you really want to be loyal to a place like that.\n\n2. Call unemployment and file as quickly as possible.\n\n3. Did you have a 401k plan? If so, you may be able to    \n   withdraw against it (There are tax and early withdrawal \n   penalties involved) But if you need the money,   \n   sometimes you do what you gotta do.\n\n4. Call all utilities and get on their budget plan. This \n   will begin to help you formulate a budget if don't  \n   already have one. And you'll know what your basic bills \n   wlll be each month.\n\n5. Write a letter to all your creditors telling them you  \n   will be making lower payment amounts because your income \n   situation has changed.\n\n6. Update your resume.\n\n7. Ask any and everybody, do they know of any place hiring.\n\n8. Surf the net for possible leads.\n\n9. Post your resume to a job search site like Monster dot \n   com.\n\n10.Volunteer somewhere doing something.  Sometimes you can \n   find the answer to your problems by helping someone else \n   with theirs. And who knows this may be where you get  \n   your best leads from. \n\n11.Exercise. If you don't already, start a routine that \n   will help you reduce stress.\n\n12. Finally, is there a dream in your life you haven't \n    reached for? Maybe now is the time to do what you were \n    sent here to do. When you are reaching for something  \n    you have always wanted, you'll encouter stumbling  \n    blocks but you'll never fail. Self employment might be \n    calling your name. You have 30 years of service, you \n    can't tell me you don't have the background to succeed \n    at whatever you want to do.\n\nI wish you Godspeed and the best of luck.

How close is too close to watch a computer monitor?\nIt is a well known fact that while viewing a 15 inch monitor, we should keep a distance of 25 to 27 inches between the monitor and the eyes. Should the same distance be maintained while viewing a 10 inch monitor? (Please note here that the area of a 10 inch monitor is approximately half that of a 15 inch monitor). Can I use small fonts in the 10 inch monitor and sit closer than what distance I keep with a 15 inch monitor?\nGenerally, should the distance between eyes and monitor vary with the size of the monitor?\n\nIf 27 inches is okay to 15 inch monitor, whats ok for 10 inch?

I haven't heard much about how far away you should sit, except that it should be comfortable for you.  I wanted to comment on another answer that stated that you should turn down the brightness to decrease the amount of radiation.  There's been a lot of hype about UV radiation from computer screens lately and actually, monitors emit UV at a level 10,000 to 100,000 times LOWER than the levels known to cause any eye or skin damage.  Also, make sure that you take breaks about every 20 minutes when you're working on the computer to relax your eyes.


i send money to support my parents. they do not meet residency criteria in USA. they live in india.

You can not take a deduction for them. If they had a social security number and lived here and you pd 50% of their support you could. You might see if there is a non profit (like a church) org that you could donate to that would help your family. That would be the only way. Bless you for taking care of them!!!

If koalas get high off of eukalyptus leaves, would eating a bunch of cough drops do the same thing to people? If so how many should you eat?

Koalas don't eat anything but eucalyptus leaves. And things that make some animals "high" have no effect on other animals. I doubt if you get all crazy when you sniff catnip.


The gas station never requires a signature.  The grocery store or retail store usually does.  Even if the amounts are the same.  Who determines when you need to sign, and when you don't?

The agreement between merchant (the store) and the credit card processing company.I\n\nf the store wants easier (faster) processing, they can elect to have a higher "Signature" amount, but will increase their risk level by being responsible for that amount if it is disputed.\n\nZero risk would be to require a signature for all transactions, but would take a little longer.  So if the store has a lot of business, they may ellect to "bypass" the signature.

i have do a experiment to remove the salt from the saltwater.but how can i test wheter the water(product)that i get still got salt or not?please help me.

Distill the water. The WATER comes out of the tubes, not the salt.\n    As for testing, just drink a little of it. Do you *LIKE* it?\nNo? Well you better make sure that you don't put it back in the same cup you used for collection.\nOK the water will still pass an electric current through it if it has any impurities. Completely pure water will not.\nUnless you use more than around one volt, in which case the bubbles you see escaping will be hydrogen and oxygen. That means you've gone too far with the testing part.


My problem is like this. \ngirls smile at me and become friendly initilly and when I start thinking that I can become a good friend after a few more smiles,( I wouldnt have spoken to them at this stage) they start ignoring me and they avoid even looking at me.

Yep, it did to me when I was in High School.  I found out the hard way... just say hi for a couple time for two days.  Stage two, introduce yourself and wait for her reaction.  So, from than on be yourself like with other friends.  Good luck!

like say 4 exsample u use lens that revolved in different motions refracting light view 2 a center spot ,opaque screen refracting say from a sheet of paparius paper with pictoglipics.

Glass has been around for a long time and it is possible that someone fashioned a "lens" and did tricks with it (and was burned at the stake?).  More likely, tricks were done with campfire light and shadows on cave walls to form rabbits, gulls (or dinosaurs?).  Still a great way to entertain children, right?

cancel cancel cancel! There is a reason you didn't want to date him in the first place! I once dated a guy, because I  didn't know how to say no, before the second date I had a bad feeling and really didn't want to go out with him anymore, well towards the end of that second date, he was really forceful, wanting me to have sex with him, luckily some people came upon us, but listen to your gut instinct.

Is it unhealthy to exercise so much in one day? I'm not actually looking to do it - just wondering if anyone has done it, and what the outcome has been, if so. (I'm currently exercising off about 200 - 500 cal per day... slow going! =] )\n\nThanks.\n\n♥

It would definitely be unhealthy to exercise that much -- that's like running 35 miles a day!  In running a marathon (26.2 miles), athletes generally "hit the wall" at around mile 22 -- that's because the body can only store about 2,200 calories worth of glycogen for energy.  People eat during races in order to have their glycogen replenished.  But it would defnitely be unhealthy to stay in such a glycogen-depleted state, and you'd have a massive buildup of the stress hormone cortisol -- which, oddly enough, causes the body to store fat.  Having too much cortisol would probably reduce the calorie burn too.  Interesting question though.


and if thats "surposed to be the devils" numbers ..well what are gods numbers

Origins of 666\n\nThe idea of the Triple God/dess has existed well before the beginnings of Christianity. The Christian God also holds the Trinity of Father, Son and Holy Ghost/Spirit, mirroring a religious aspect that dates well into the beginnings of solidified Pantheons. \n\nThe Christian God is said to create the world in 6 days on the 7th he rests. On the six day is the creation of man. \n\n\n"And God went on to say: 'Let us make man in our image, according to our likeness, and let them have in subjection the fish of the sea and the flying creatures of the heavens and the domestic animals and all the earth and every moving animal that is moving upon the earth.' And God proceeded to create the man in his image, in God's image he created him; male and female he created them."-Genesis 1:26, 27."\n\nSo we can see how the number of man is 6, being created on the Sixth day.\n\nThe Devil/Satan is label through history as the God of Flesh or something very similar depending on who/where you hear it. The God of Flesh is therefore also the God of Man, not of Christian man but of everyother man. Because the Devil is a "God" his number holds the Trinity aspect... being the Trinity God of Man, and Man's number being 6... the Devil's number becomes 666!\n\nIn Numerology, the number 6 is one of the most harmonius of numbers. First a brief background must be explained. The number 1 is a male number, both because of its phallic symbol and embodiment of masculine attributes such as physical and mental activity, and creative power. The number 2 is a feminine number, the II symbolic of the vaginal passage, and embodying feministic properties; accepeting, yielding, warm. The number 3 is another male number. Rotating it on it's side symbolizes the male reproductive testies and it is also 1 (male) + 2 (female) making it the number of Offspring.\n\nBackground infomation done, mathematically 6 is both 2 (Female) times 3 (Male) and 1 (Male) + 2 (Female) + 3 (Offspring), making it extremely balanced and hence symbolic of harmonious sexual union. The upward (male) and downward (female) triangels superimpose to form the 6-pointed star. It also very much mirroring a woman's pregnant expanding womb. It is both a female number and 2 x 3 and therefore represents the nurturing side of womanhood -- the stable, safe, warm, domestic aspect of motherhood.\n\nBecause it is portrayed as such a female number, celebrating the beauty of motherhood and sexuality, it was shunned by the original Church. It was greatly in their favor to layer 6 with negative connotations, thus diminishing the popular practice of numerology and marking mothers with 6 of some item for good luck. (i.e. 6 flowers or a necklace with 6 beads.)\n\nFrom here, a propaganda was built around this number and it is said to be an evil omen or some other such nonsense. In any case, whether you believe it is evil or not... that is the origin of the Number of the Beast. Oddly enough, more people avoid the number 13 than 666. Multiple hotels remove room number 13 from every floor but room number 666 will remain. Curious...


DOES ANY ONE KNOW A SPANISH WORD THAT CONTAINS THE LETTER "W" ???

first off, the spanish alphabet contains the same letters as the english alphabet, so yes...W is a letter in the spanish alphabet.\n\nThere are some names that are spelled with W, but it is often used for nouns derived from other languages such as german or english.  Usually, when words are incorporated into the spanish language the w changes to a v.


My wife and I ordered some tattoo ink from this site called inksling.com and we used her debit card to pay for the order, that was feb 8th when they took the money and ive still not recieved anything from the site.I have sent numerous e-mails asking what the proublem is to no avail, the customer service phone numbers listed at the site wont answer the calls so I am kinda stuck as to what to do is anyone out there that can tell me how to report this site or at the least get my money back

If you had kept the website name you can give it to the police station and the will act acording to this.or you can ask some computers experts (specialist in networks) to follow the link and know the realy name of the owner of the website who cheated you.\nI hope that I gave you aconvenience opinion to act well.


What is your dose of both and how does it affect weight and sex drive?

I've been on Wellbutrin 300mg daily for at least a year now.  I haven't gained any weight...or lost any for that matter.  I'm just as nympho as ever!


ok if you lost your virginity at 13 and had sex with the same person for 2 years and at 14  you had sex with one person for about 1 month and brokeup and waited about a year and met someone else had sex with him  at 15 and then broke-up  and here you is about to be 16 and haven't had sex since christmas of last year.

Not a ho.Bad decisions in the past maybe,but not a ho. If someone said you are they are wrong and not your friend. You started too early but you seem to understand more about not being a ho than most folks.You will never become a ho unless you start having sex with a lot of guys that you don't care about and don't care about you.Sex within relationships is ok.Don't cheat anymore though because you really are hurting yourself more than you're doing yourself any good.And even though it's damn hard,try not to obsess about it.YOU know if you're a ho - and it really doesn't matter what other people say.You'll know your true friends by who believes the gossip and who bothers to get to know the real you.\nP.S. Never listen to a dude that says you're a ho\nIt's just one of the many words they know they can call us to get a reaction


If I listened to the Atheists and Agnostics, would I really be thinking for myself then? I think I'd be letting them think for me.\nHowever, don't let me try to think for you.Between being right and being happy, I'll just choose being happy :)

You go girl. I'm a Christian too, and nobody will ever change that. Being a christian is the greatest thing that can happen to a person.

simple poem preferably......i will cite the source on my blog

Here's a poem by Pablo Neruda called "Tonight I Write the Saddest Lines".  It contains a favorite quote which goes "Love is so short. Forgetting so long.":\n\nTonight I can write the saddest lines.\n\nWrite, for example, 'The night is starry\nand the stars are blue and shiver in the distance.'\n\nThe night wind revolves in the sky and sings.\n\nTonight I can write the saddest lines.\nI loved her, and sometimes she loved me too.\n\nThrough nights like this one I held her in my arms.\nI kissed her again and again under the endless sky.\n\nShe loved me, sometimes I loved her too.\nHow could one not have loved her great still eyes.\n\nTonight I can write the saddest lines.\nTo think that I do not have her. To feel that I have lost her.\n\nTo hear the immense night, still more immense without her.\nAnd the verse falls to the soul like dew to the pasture.\n\nWhat does it matter that my love could not keep her.\nThe night is starry and she is not with me.\n\nThis is all. In the distance someone is singing. In the distance.\nMy soul is not satisfied that it has lost her.\n\nMy sight tries to find her as though to bring her closer.\nMy heart looks for her, and she is not with me. \n\nThe same night whitening the same trees.\nWe, of that time, are no longer the same.\n\nI no longer love her, that's certain, but how I loved her.\nMy voice tried to find the wind to touch her hearing.\n\nAnother's. She will be another's. As she was before my kisses.\nHer voice, her bright body. Her infinite eyes.\n\nI no longer love her, that's certain, but maybe I love her.\nLove is so short, forgetting is so long.\n\nBecause through nights like this one I held her in my arms\nmy soul is not satisfied that it has lost her.\n\nThough this be the last pain that she makes me suffer\nand these the last verses that I write for her.

i would like to hav happiness, love , friendship , kids to play with etc.........


there are alot of people(females) online...but i wonder what percentage of them...in chatrooms, messenger...in here....are even somewhat attractive...i wonder if all these places are just crowded with girls with no lives, no friends, less appealing physical features and nothing better to do.....OR could i be wrong??

You are totally wrong, I know I am very sexy, and I bet there are quite a few sexy ladies here besides me. I do have a life and many friends, do you, Are you ugly?


Can you tell me how to manually remove win98Se from a hard drive wich has 98Se installed after winMe on the same disk?\nI have to do it through DOS,windows won`t boot either o/s.\n I know it will require some effort to remove this way or is there a better way?

Your best bet is to boot from floppy or CD and just repartition/reformat the hard drive.


to yell "MOVIE!!!" in a crowded firehouse?

But what would happen if you yell, "doughnuts" in a crowded police station???


I am 16 years old and currently writing a fiction script to make it a movie.I want to contact people to help me with this,i live in ethiopia but want the movie to be done in U.S.A(holly wood).

ahhahaha\n\nwell umm, sell your fiction to publishers\nhttp://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=list+of+publishers&btnG=Google+Search\n\nor you can try to promote it yourself at lulu.com\n\n\nif your writing is worth any salt, and becomes famous, then only then will it become a movie.\n\n\nplenty of tragic lives though

I'm currently taking a Project Management course, while trying to choose and then initiate a project in my personal business.\n\nIs Microsoft Project the best software to use?  What are the other good options?  I don't have Office at the moment, but before I shell out for the software, I'd like to know from other PMs' experiences.  Thanks.

There are many many project management software packages.  I'll include a link to some below.  Some are even free.  Which one is best for you depends on what you need to do.\n\nMicrosoft Project is the most widely used project management package - not that it's necessarily the best, but for the price and Microsoft name, it's what most people choose.\n\nMSP is not included as part any any MS Office package, but it does export ot both Visio and Excel.\n\nYou mention Mindjet.  That is very different to MSP.  MSP is a scheduling package.  Mindjet is more of a structured graphics package -  to be used for "mind maps".

I have had 2 hernia surgeries, on each side, and I still get an ache on my left side. Will a Lower GI spot a potential problem?

A radiographic exam of the lower GI is called a BE (barium enema).  It has mainly been replaced by colonoscopy.  The only time my facility is doing a BE anymore, is after a doctor attempts a colonoscopy and cannot thoughouly examine the colon.  Reasons for that would be a very long colon (it happens!) or a colon with many loops in it (redundant colon).  If you want to know more about a BE, check out these links:  http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/003817.htm\nhttp://www.radiologyinfo.org/content/lower_gi.htm\n\nFor a colonoscopy, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colonoscopy\nhttp://www.webmd.com/hw/colorectal_cancer/hw209694.asp\n\nFor an even easier exam of your colon, think about virtual colonoscopies with CT:  http://www.radiologyinfo.org/content/ct_colo.htm


ladys what do you thing of three girl friends in the club holding hands, dancing to gether and there is one that wants to dance with guys but her friends will not let her because guys are not picking on them

Girls night out. They probably made a deal that they stay together for the night No guys between them.


i know that they were invented by Pierre Fauchard in 1728, but i've searched the internet for hours and havent been able to find where they were invented. this is for a social studies project, so i really need to know. thanks.

So in 1718 he moved to Paris ( ah the city of lights and beautiful Madames, and excellent restaurants, one of which is Fouguet's on the Avenue Champs Elysees a favor of mine and Pierre's, what delightful times we spent there), while in Paris he was called on by eminent general surgeons for dental related consultations and referrals. He was now recognized as he most outstanding dental surgeon in all of France!

I would like to use photo's and or artwork in my promotion material, but have very little budget (chicken and egg) however I do not want to break any copyright. \nCan anyone point me in the right direction please? The materterial will be primarily 'fine art' related and any photo stock sources.

A really good option is stock.xchng (http://www.sxc.hu/).\nIt is a large community driven archive of stock images that are offered free. There are some options to purchase higher quality options (through a partner site, if I remember) if you were doing a large format print piece, but the images on the site should be more than high enough resolution for website use.\n\nThe interface is basic, but very useful. They have around 200,000 images, and add between 200-500 a day.\n\nHope this helps you.


I suppose this is the right category, someone should have a personal experience. What about other combat wounds from various devices? Does it hurt more or less than you would think?

Actually had no idea what it would feel like...I was hit by a tracer round from an AK-47. Felt like getting hit by a baseball bat.. watched it from about 150 yards to almost impact..was in SLOOO- motion. Cauterized itself (burned itself closed) Had just 1 drop of blood at both entry and exit Went numb almost immediately.Couldn't flex elbow either.


How much is sex important for a true love? I feel it is not at all important as holding hand is more sensual/romantic than sex. Inputs welcome.

Depends. \nIt can be just a 4 letter word to some people cause they have never expierenced it or maybe they cant and never will. \nTo others its a feeling you have so deep that you never want to loose and it scares you to even think you could ever loose that special someone.\nthe biggest secret to love is honesty and loyalty


i git instant messages but i cant send them back in yahoo messenger in chat rooms

Typically the person who you are sending messages have blocked all incoming messages so that could be a reason.\n\nSometimes I can see people's messages but they cannot see mine in the chat room. Its called "Lost Cookie Syndrome". All you have to do is logout of Yahoo, re-login and enter the room.\n\nIf the same is happening in the Instant message, then you will have to re-install the messenger.\n\nThe last and final culprit is the Firewall. Do check your firewall administrator if you are in office. If you are using from your PC, then check the Firewall settings of XP.\n\n.:Fishie:.

how can somebody get ahold of your password when you don't give it to them?

There are a lot of ways.  Using a packet sniffer they can capture passwords (always use secure sign-on options to prevent this).  They can use keyloggers to capture everything you type.  Some pose as IT staff and trick users into divulging their passwords.  There can guess the password using something called a dictionary attack.


A CNA is a Certified Nursing Assistant. They usually work in Hopspitals or nursing homes. Please help me. This is for a project at school.

CNA is a Certified Nurses Assitant - and its a horrible job. I did it before I became a registered nurse and wouldn't wish that hell on anyone. Usually, the bulk of CNA's work at nursing homes and have to feed the elderly, bathe them, change the bed pans and diapers.


emotional and psychological effects of long term pot use

It can mess with your head(well duh) but I mean more than just at the moment.  It can cause or make depression worse, it doesn't cause mental disorders but can make them worse.  It kills motivation, causes cancer, causes impotence.  Its emotionally addicting, which can be just as bad as a physical addiction.  What you really have to think about is why do it in the first place, there aren't many reasons to smoke pot other than at the moment it feels good, but there are a lot of reasons not to.  I have smoked pot for years, and honestly I wish I had never started.  I wonder where my life would be if I hadn't.


Every age group and culture has their own definition of ideal beauty, inside and out.  I'm curious to know what those ideals are.  Don't be afraid to mention ethnically specific characteristics, shallow comments, and/or broad basic evasive points either.  Everything is FAIR GAME.

ok here it goes\n\nPhysically - Tall, big boned or willowy is ok, long hair preferrabably brown,black or red/auburn. Breasts - C cup down, long legs. Um..eyes anything. large-ish lips. Basically willowy looking\n\nMentally - Very smart, a leader but not too over bossy, someone i can deal with on my level, kind hearted. \n\nSpiritually - as long as they arent a crazed zealot im ok. \n\njust to add, i like people who are frank,honest and forthright. No prissy girls who dont know if they should do something or not. Preferrably not someone who is urban. \nIf they have similar interests of course its a good thing too.\n\nAbout race, i dont care really. But prefer asian,indian, and causcian


It would be a craft project.  Need products to make the candle??

They already have candles for that there called smokers candles..I smoke and I buy them all the time at wal-mart...sorry someone beat you to it...but I'm sure you can think of something else


give me your reason, and if your answer is the first one, mention how. coz i'm a fresh graduate and in a major dilemma. thanks

So much depends on your knowledge, experience and personality. Assuming you have limited experience but a good education in a particular field then starting to work for someone else to gain experience is a good idea. Then if you have the type of personality that can take the ups and downs of starting your own business, then do it.


I need to know if my bf is lying to me. We work for the same company. Does anyone know how I can get either his password for his work e-mail account or his yahoo one?

I really don't recommend trying to access his work account, because you can get fired for that.  You should probably just talk to him rather than trying to access his account, but if you insist, there is information on hacking Yahoo here:\nhttp://www.linkbase.org/articles/How-to-Hack-Yahoo-and-Hotmail.htm\n\nBe advised that Yahoo can also inflict penalties.  Additionally, it is probably not wise to ask ON a Yahoo website about HACKING a Yahoo website.


I am replying to your letter that you sent to me about the poem that you had recently read by Walt Whitman. I think that you are taking the poem too literally. He is explaining of how life is a web. All things connect in a certain way. For example, it says, "The early lilacs became part of the child." This means that the child saw the beautiful lilacs, and smelled the tremendous scent of them. It became a part of him. His mother, father, &all the other ppl in his life r a part of him. all things that his eyes see r a part of him1 of the other reasons why these now r a part of him is cuz of his memory thinking back he could remember all the events that happened he would be able to smell them, if he thought about them i think that best way for u to fully understand this poem is for u 2 write a poem almost like this 1. when u wake up in the morning, sit by the window & just write about the scenery, and all the nosies u hear. Once u see & smell them, they become a part of u i hope that u r

First line : too much of a run on ... change to something like:  "I am replying to your letter in regards to the poem you recently read by Walt Whitman"\n\n2nd line ... maybe add  "In my opinon I think you are taking the poem to literally."\n\nDo not abrievate ppl, r, cuz u, etc.  Actually spell the words out.  If you want your letter to be taken seriously you need to present it in a professional manner.\n\nHopefully you also have paragraphing.\n\nHope this helps!


i really do like my ex alot and really want him back.i just alway find my self thinking about him.i want him to take my hands again.how do i make him see i really want him back?

You can't make some one love you who doesn't.  You have to accept that what once was can never be again.  The best thing you can do is move on so that you can be happy and not spend your time chasing after what you can't have.


im 17 and i have a mole on my cheek the size of about half the size of a dime and its evened out with the rest of my skin,so how would it look after i got it removed....? and how do i go about getting it done?

I would consult a dermatologist or two.\nIt would think it would be dependent not only the circumference of the mole, but the depth of it as well that would need to be removed.\n\nAsk an experience doctor of dermatology.


Me, it would have to be either, "Guns n' Roses" "Civil War," or "Metallica's" "My Friend of Misery." How about you?

Motorhead is great drinking music.  Judas Priest tends to fit the mood for me as well.


I could have sworn that I found free Norton for Yahoo users awhile back and now I can't find the place I found it at. Can anyone help me here? \n  If anyone has any other type of free security advice I am open to that too.

search the web.. lot's available.. I suggest avoiding Norton and Macaffee.  Support sucks, they're invasive and annoying.


we have rust water and i have blonde hair. help!!!!

Go to your local beauty salon and get a Malibu treatment done.  It's an intens conditioning sysytem that removes rust and lets your hair become more healthy again.  You can also buy it in your local beauty supply store and do it at home.  Just apply, put a towel on your head covering it and wait the recommended minutes.  Then rinse.  It's pretty easy.


I have a couple of girls in my freshman class and all they can do is talk crap about one another.

NOw at school B is telling every one that K is a hore and kisses every one she sees including C. and Her self. What should I do besides kill B. and all her gay assssssssss friends? come one help me with this.

K needs to make B jealous by making out with her bo in front of her.  B sounds like she is jealous of K.  and i agree B should be given lice.  she needs the head scratching to keep her busy.


I sweat like excessively under my arms and on my hands. i have tried like every anti-persprint an nothing has worked. Does anyone know of any "natural" remedies?

I tell you to get Certain Dri. You will never sweat from your underarms. Eliminates all odor. Has no smell. Has no residue so it does not stain your clothes at all. You put it on at night. Go to sleep. Wake up and take a shower. The residue of the deoderant is gone, but you don't sweat or smell at all for a couple of days. And when I say you don't sweat or smell I mean it. I go to the gym and my shirt gets soaked except for under the arms. That is how well it works.


The only test I know of requires the use of live e. coli bacteria, which makes me somewhat squeamish.

Lactose is a reducing sugar and will therefore react with Benedict's reagent. The reaction is quantitative, so you can measure the amount of copper(I) oxide formed. Of course this assumes that there are no other reducing sugars present, nor other material that might interfere. i assume that you are trying to measure lactose in milk or milk products. You would probably need to precipitate proteins first - by curdling with a little acid.


For example, if one has a traumatic event or events in their past, can hypnotism or drugs effectively erase, or suppress these memories so as not to haunt the individual?

Why would you even want to mess with your mind like that?  I have some scary skeletons in my closet as well, but you just breath in an out every day, and each day that you don't go through that again, makes it easier to deal with.  Counseling does wonders as well.  DONT MESS WITH YOUR BRAIN.


I am not really into politics, but I have heard Bush is not doing what is right for the people of America on the whole.  Is sending more and more troops overseas right? My dad was in Iraq for 6 months and is now in Korea for a year, but I dont understand.  What is Bush hoping to gain by ripping families apart for the sake of more troops?

I realize that you miss your Dad, but the U.S. has an all volunteer military.  Your Dad knew what he was doing when he joined the military. He made the choice to serve his country and sometimes that means that he has to be separated from his family.\n\nPresident Bush has made some mistakes, but they are for the most part related to public relations rather than what he is actually doing in the War on Terror.  There are a lot of problems to be overcome in Iraq and it is important that we finish what we started.  In comparison to our rebuilding of Germany and Japan during WWII we are acting quickly.  It took five years before democratic elections were held in Japan and we had to occupy West Germany for over 30 years.\n\nNo one likes war but sometimes it is necessary.  The Brave men and women who protect our freedoms should be supported in their efforts.  Unfortunately, there are groups out there who are willing to cheapen their sacrafices in order to make the president look bad and make the work being done in Iraq look pointless.

I am a college freshman. I attend Univ. of Connecticut and am unsure of my major but want to do something that can give me a fairly secure financial background. I Know that I am not iterested in math or science majors, and have dreams of working for MTV in the future. I was thinking of communications with a Pre-law concentration.\nIs having a Law degee necessarily gonna give me more pay in a communications job if the job has little to do with law? I was hopeing that having a law degree would warrant me more pay because I would be concidered a professinal. hate to sound shallow but I only want to try pre-law because of the money it can give me. \nI have little interest in court room "drama" and would preferr just not to do it. How can I conbine the two so they can work for me?\nAnswers from lawyers, law students, students who are double majoring like me or WHOEVER most welcome!!

I am not a law student, lawyer, or anything to do with the legal profession.  I will approach this answer with my own life experience.\n\nFOLLOW YOUR DREAM.\n\nRegardless of what it is, doing what you most dream of doing will give you the greatest incentive, the greatest drive, the ability to get up each day eager to go to work.  You will work 12-15 hours a day and still hunger for more.  This is where your financial success will come from.  But more than that, your soul will be fed as you do the things you feel you were born to do.\n\nI worked for 26 years in a place that made me ill thinking of it.  I hated it.  I didn't like what I did, the people I associated with. \n\nFinally, I quit and went back to school to pursue my dream - music.  I may never be a world-famous soprano, but because of what and who I am, I will never tire of the field.  I wlll always be able to teach, and there will always be opportunities for me to perform.  My willingness to tackle a new challenge in my field will always keep me fresh and envigorated - and young.\n\nDo what your heart tells you to do.  Don't let others talk you out of it, and DON'T make money your primary goal.  The money will come as you do what you like, and you will enjoy life so very much more.


How do I create a normal layout, but is postionned to the left, no matter  the browser/resolution? It contains an image that I want it to be always left sided but it must be 0 pixel from the top. Is there anyway? Thanks~

Static Web portals are dead. Long live their descendants: "personal Internet services and software." The phrase (from a Microsoft press release) doesn't make for the most attractive acronym, but seems to represent the new trend in search services. \n\n\nIf you're confused about the difference between the MSN portal's My MSN page and Windows Live, you're not alone. Live has a cleaner, more modern look and feel, but as far as I can tell right now, the two are different stabs at a personal portal, and Microsoft is hoping you'll use one. \n\n\nIn the words of a cog in Redmond's PR machine, Live "is designed to bring together in one place all the relationships, information, and interests people care about most…across their PC, devices and the Web." For the most part Windows Live Beta does deliver on that mission statement. \n\n\nThis is the latest recipe for winning and retaining the eyes and clicks of the masses: Deliver all manner of search capability—general Web, desktop, image, and whatever else—in one place; stir in several parts free services such as news, weather, mapping, and gadgets; make page layout fully customizable; let user drop unwanted portions; add other components. Boom! You've got 'em (for the time being)—or so the logic goes. \n\n\nI found a lot of similarities between Live.com and Google Desktop and mostly the same features, though each has a unique look and different packaging. For example, Google Desktop runs locally and is meant to sit on a side, in a corner, or in a nook of your desktop, always connected via your broadband pipe. That way the portal keeps your news and other dynamic content fresh around the clock. Live.com, on the other hand, is more of a classic Web site, though you can customize it to your heart's content and it will retain the look you give it. \n\n\nTo make full use of the Microsoft service, you have to log in using your Microsoft Passport Network credentials or after signing up for Live.com separately. I accessed the portal using my hotmail account and password.—Continue reading \n\n\nStarting with search \n\nAt the heart of Live (actually you'll find it top-center) is a wide-open search bar, the edges tinged in a warm radioactive green that's surprisingly inviting. Put in a search and hit enter, and a window of results appears below. \n\n\nA menu bar that opens immediately above your results shows all the different types of search available: Web, News, Images (an entirely new feature), and Local. I think the idea here is to provide you with choices for refining your search if you get too many results. Having the choice before you search is more useful, I find, but that would clutter the otherwise clean original search bar. \n\n\nThe Google equivalent of Live, Google IG, is more cluttered but does manage to keep the various search-type buttons exposed. Also, Windows Live has no advanced search (or hides it well). The site appears to support advanced syntax like site:pcmag.com, but there's no help that I could find. The MSN portal's search, on the other hand, has a very nice Search Builder that helps teach the syntax. (You get to it from the Search Results page.). \n\n\nSearches completely take over your Live page, which I don't like—all your other choices and info disappear. To get them back you must either hit the "x" in the upper right corner—completely obliterating your search results page—or hit the back button and wait for the page to refresh. (You do have the option, though, of adding the results to your Live page, which closes the search page.) \n\n\nI'm also not thrilled that clicking on a result takes you away from the Live page unless you remember to right-click and select open a new window. Once I'd spent some time logged in to Live.com and made some customizations, I looked at it as a base of operations—a jumping-off point, not a place I expected to completely leav

With the messenger program open, click on tools and go to Options. Go to preferences, and uncheck Run Windows Messenger when Windows starts. That should do it.


Hi, I am a bit confused what certificatio should i go for. I have interest in networking and i did work microsoft platform. I also did course on CCNP. But i am not sure which certification would get me a better job

I am telling by experience.\n\nThe best way to get into IT networking is by doing the following:\n1. Do MCSE 2003 (noawadys). \n2. Get a job as junior administrtor apply all the concepts you learnt in MCSE.\n3. after couple of years of experience \n4. Start CCNA because it's core networking course, MCSE and couple of years of experience will help you a lot in understanding concepts in CCNA.\n5. When opting for CCNA don't go for a crash course, od a proper course from a proper Institute.\n6. You'll be surprised with the results.\n\nRemember there's no shortcut to success.\n\nHope it helps

my MA was in English language and Lit. i am so much concerend now about having my MBA in ERP , especially, SAP .

ERP systems are the most neglected yet important area of business.  Even the best ERP systems are useless unless someone can really help a company set it up and train the people to use it.  You can make a great career out of consulting companies that need an ERP system set up.  An MBA in that area would have a good future.

Along with Google, they are active participants in suppressing democracy.  Apparently, they led government officials to a dissident that had used the web for protest.  He’s now serving time in prison.\n\nShould we be supporting this company?  In doing so, are we aiding in the suppression of democracy?

This issue is overblown.  They are not suppressing democracy.  They are following the laws of the land they are operating in.  The are granted permission to operate in China and must follow its laws.  Just if any foreign company was doing business in the US, we would expect them to follow our laws.


I was called a punk and stupid for reasons unknown to me by someone that falsely accused me of something.  Why not just e-mail the person or im them, why would you attack them in a public forum when they don't even have their information correct.  This just baffles me, but I guess not everyone has tact and respect huh?  Anyway, everyone have a great day!!!! :)

I would never do that unless they did it to me first.

LOL - if you are talking about the home based businesses they try to sell you on TV, ads on the internet, friend referral or a sign posted in your neighborhood? It's all junk; they are just trying to get you to sell their goods. The latest version of a pyramid scheme.\n\nhttp://www.bbb.org/alerts/article.asp?ID=436\n\nFrom my experiance with my own (legitimate) home based business (my own idea/service) the hardest part is staying busy instead of goofing off (like being on Yahoo Answers). Takes allot more discipline than I ever thought it would. You need to find a nitche that needs to be filled, working at home is an added bonus as it helps to keep over head low.\n\nhttp://www.sba.gov/starting_business/


Howdy, I want a good workout plan.  Like how much weight to use, how many reps to do, and how often.  Over the next 2 months I will have a lot of spare time for this, and I willing to devote 2-3 hours a day to just working out.\nAlso, I need some things to do when I workout solo.  I can't always get to the gym.  Most of my spare time is late at night as well,  so I can't really find anyone to spot me at 2am.  I have a weight set now, with 300 pounds, which is my end goal, I'd like to bench the full amount.  \nI have never worked out before, so I am pretty weak, and very, very inexperienced.\nIf one of you could give me a whole weeks workout plan that would be great, like... Monday, bench press/ blah/blah  Tuesday,  Squats/blah/blah. etc etc.   Like give me a whole working routine, and anything else I might need to know \n\n\nThankyou very much.

First, don't set your weight goal that high.  Take baby steps.  Often, beginners just hurt themselves by pulling too much weight, working out too much, or using incorrect form.\n\nThen remember to stretch all your muscles correctly before and after you exercise.  Also, you might want to warm up with five minutes of cardio, such as a light jog.\n\nUsually, a beginner should try for repetitions of about 10-12 per set.  Then do about two to three sets of exercises for each major muscle group.  You should do each repetition with perfect form.  Each rep should last about four to five seconds in total, with two seconds in the first part (e.g. pulling down), one second holding the exercise at that point, and two seconds on the part where you let the weight go back to its original position.  Make sure you don't drop your weights or let go abruptly.  Make sure you do a full rep in correct form.  By the twelfth rep, you should still be able to do the correct form, but you shouldn't be able to do any more reps using proper form until rested.  Take a minute break between sets.\n\nAlso, don't work out the same muscle groups every single day.  What I do is upper body on one day and cardio on the alternate day.  DO NOT START WITH FREE WEIGHTS.  Start with the machines.  It's a lot easier for beginners to do proper form with machines than free weights.  After a month or two, maybe you can then go onto free weights.  Ask an employee at the gym for a walk-through on all of the machines.\n\nLastly, if you increase your weights too quickly, you won't gain muscles as fast because you'll probably be using incorrect form.  Usually if I'm using machines, I increase my weights by one level every week or two (If I'm using machines, I increase the weights by five pounds each arm every week or two).  However, if you are struggling with the new weight, don't be afraid to go back to the old weight.  The important thing is form.\n\nBy the way, if you have taken a break from working out for a while, don't go back to the weights that you were using before.  Use lighter weights, because you don't want to pull anything.  Working out is a gradual process; you have your whole life to stay healthy.  That's the main reason to work out.  DON'T TAKE STEROIDS.

France did it in 1799.The U. S . Congress resolved it in 1859.W ould/could you teach more efficintly/learn more easily with one or both?

Yes. It's like sweet, sweet, mathematical unification of the world! Many parts of the world has already been using the Metric System, except for various countries like the US. The rules of the Metrics, is simplier than the Customs. (cm)Each unit of the measurement is in 10s, as inch, make it hard to make specific measures because each mark on the ruler is 0.0625! Adopting the Metric System!

between Piaggio and Gilera, definitely PIAGGIO... believe me I lived in Italy and that´s what everyone´s driving...\nyou could look for a nice old VESPA (this is a model from PIAGGIO, the one you see in all old Italian movies), but they may be more expensive

what king of uniform do swimmers HAVE  to wear such as their bathing suits is their any guide line

It has to be comfortable and just right for the swimmers size. It doesn't really need to be all spandex.\nIf you are ladies, you have to have pads to make your _______ safe.\n\nFor men, just wear the suit.\n\nThere is Speedo and lots more stores out there looking for swimmers!

I am debating on the cons of walmart and i need the exact number of lawsuits on walmart and how they compare to Target or any other big store!?!?\n\nAny cons against wal-MArt would be appreciated....\n\nPelase...I need help...\n\nThanx in advance

Sorry,\nI used to be a wal-mart boycotter.\nBut, they sell the some stuff cheaper than Costco and Sam's Club, both of which you have to be a member of.\n\nThey sell name brand sundry items, and usually it is a great deal.  In the name of saving money , why not shop there.  The  lawsuits are probably mostly locals trying to keep them out of their area.  And also from employees trying to get MORE money than they are worth.  I would guess Wal-Mart is the "target" of more lawsuits, and unfortunately, most of them are frivelous.  \n\nWith the advent of the internet and online shopping, people are prooving they want their items cheap.  Local companies don't want to be pushed out of their 'market'.  I used to feel for the local businesses, but after being screwed too many times by them, I lost interest in trying see their side.

Are they back-peddling on G."DUBYA" in Congress now?

Reublican's are just leaning on the fact that they are strong on national security issues. National Security has been carrying the Repiblican party since 9/11 and will continue to do so until the Democrats come up with some real ideas other than Bush is wrong. They keep running on this platform and they keep loosing elections.

I have a lot of problems with Nikes bevause they're narrow. Clark's are wider but they're not sneakers. Flat-bottomed PUMAs are wider, but they don't give the cushioning that running shoes do.

Yea... I have a wide foot too. I usually get either New Balance or Addidas. \nYou are correct though.. Nikes tend to be really narrow... but I found a specific pair that was really wide.


I am a new mom and I would love to find a new job with more flexible hours or even better on that will allow me to work from home. I have thought about doing real estate or being a travel agent. Do you have any opinions or suggestions for me?? Thank You!!!

For a class once I had to do a report on several different industries/jobs that were of interest to me. At the time one of those was a travel agent. So for the project I had to interview several different people about the industry/job. So I will tell you what I learned about the travel agent part of your question.\n\nAt the time I assumed that being a travel agent was pretty easy and you basically planned vacations and took your own. Well, I was completely wrong. The agents I talked to said that the hours were usually very long and there was always something left to do that you couldn't all get done during the work day. They worked so much that they really didn't have time to do much travelling of their own. \n\nSince you are wanting to work from home I assume your only option would be to be an online agent. Which, from what I was told is even harder than working in an actual building. For one thing, they don't work with an hourly wage, so you can work a whole day and not make anything. Plus, you really need to study up on the destinations you are wanting to sell, and therefore you definitely should visit the area.\n\nI know from experience that the online agent I use works endless hours. I usually e-mail her during the day, but there has been a few situations where I sent her an e-mail late at night with a question, not knowing she would answer me back within a few minutes. Plus, there is a lot of competition for you. Unfortunately a lot of people don't see the benefit of using a travel agent anymore. Even though a lot of people have had bad experiences using sites like Orbitz, Expedia, etc. people would still rather save money than using an agent that knows the destination really well. So in order to get someone to book a trip with you, you really need to offer a lot of service and offer something that others don't. It can be a really hard industry to succeed in. But if you are willing to work really hard and know what you are selling, you could be very successful in. \n\nNow, the real estate agent part may be an option. But the thing here is that you will need to go to school and pass some tests and other things before getting your license. Plus, you won't be able to work from home as easily. Though I think you would be able to set your hours a little easier. But as with the travel agent, you are going to have a lot of competition, so you need to be better than everyone else or it can be really difficult to be successful. The one benefit of a travel agent over a real estate agent is that the schooling isn't as necessary for the travel agent as a real estate agent. While it is a really good idea to do, it isn't something you have to do in order to work in the field. \n\nThis is just what I have heard about each industry. Obviously you will know what is best for you. Hopefully you will be able to find some of the travel agents and real estate agents that on Answers. If you don't find anyone on here that actually works in the areas you are interested in, I would recommend contacting some in your area to ask them your experiences. They will be able to help you out a loe. I know when I talked with people that worked in the fields I was interested in, they were able to explain to me both the good and the bad of their job.\n\nHope this helps!


Just want to understand how the basic software used to write the first software was developed.

It's the old blacksmith's method.  You tie a rock to a stick, and use it to fashion a crude metal hammer. You then use this crude hammer to make a better hammer... and so on.\n\nYou use an old crude compiler to make a better one. You then use this better one to make an even better one.\n\nWhat are compilers made from? Compilers!

'cause we Cancers are so darn sexy! Just kidding. Probably because Cancers are very nurturing and protective and these guys just want to be taken care of.


I would like to set up a website in order for people to log on for a service I could provide.  Can I do this myself and if so how do I find guidlines or does my PC need a special programme?

- Yes you can setup your own web page.\n- You have to register a domain\n- You have to hire some space from the vendor\n- You have to know the web programming like using HTML, javascript, image optimization, ftp or using the control panel provided by the vendor, multimedia animation etc, etc.,\n- A mid range PC which is capable to work photoshop and dotnet (if you are going to use dotnet for professional programming)is fine.\n- all the best.\n------------------


is mind the intellect and sprit the soul or are they one in the same?

Great question. It seems to me that the mind and the spirit are like a peace of string. The string has two ends but is still one. The mind is one end of the string and the spirit the other end.\n\nTo try and make them two different parts is like saying bone and morrow are not connected.\n\nOn one end the mind is where thinking and thoughts are formed. From there action is taken and habits are formed. From there our character is made.\n\nThe spirit is harder to explain. Yet in simple terms is is our life force, our nature, our very being.\n\nOur conscience is the connector. When  we are in sync with our spirit our mind is at peace. When our conscience is distrubed it is b/c we are out of sync with our spirit..our true purpose.\n\nOne and the same? No. Connected, intertwined, yes!


I'd also like to know what it's like on the backside on Derby Day, but in particular, I need to know what the groom and hotwalker do when they take the horse over for the Derby, where they go, where they watch the race from . . . stuff like that. Thanks!

The horse needs to stay calm and relaxed. No energy can be used due to nerves or excitement. Race is on the track not in the barn. You do not feed the horse after 7 AM-no treats/no carrots, nothing. No morning workout the day before or race day, any and all races. Racehorses are the sole responsibility of the trainer even though the backbone of the racing industry is the owner of the horse...no owner-... no horse, no jockey, no trainer, no ferrier, etc. It all starts with the owner.\n\nFilms must be ordered, veternarians must examine the horse and, if need be, segregate the horse after a shot of lasix  has been administered. No visitors allowed in the backstretch, expecially near the horses readying to race. Security is tight. The groom and the hot-walker are usually the same person, so as to have the horse be in familiar hands when not racing. \n\nHorses are very sensitive to colic and must be well rested and not "blowing" hard after the race before they can drink or eat. Most trainers will not allow any visitors in the barn who are not specifically authorized, before or after any race to prevent the horse from becoming excited and injure himself in the stall. Visitors can excite the horses or give him treats which may comprimise any additive or medication given the horse.\n\nKentucky Derby day is very hectic and everybody wants to win as to bring in maximum amount of revenue for breeding purposes. Most kentucky Derby winners will start at $100,000 to cover a broodmare, once the horse has been retired. So, with 50-75 owners of broodmares ready to have their broodmares impregnated with the male sperm of the winner of the Kentucky Derby, multiply that income each year for twenty years. The income to the owner of a Kentucky Derby can be substantial over the years. Those figures are in place every year and skyrocket to $300,00-$500,000 if the winner of the Kentucky Derby produces a young colt who also wins the Kentucky Derby. \n\nOnce a horse enters the breeding shed he no longer races. It has been tried, to bring horses back into racing, but the horses are usually older and don't fair well once retired and returned to the track.\n\nIn essence, to have a horse even race in the Kentucky can be very lucrative for the owner, even if the horse comes last!...All in all, the security surounding the horses, any horse race is tight, to prevent the horse from injuring himself, other horses and the jockeys from a spill during the race. Not good for the horse/jockey and BAAAAD public relations for the track and the industry as a whole...\n\nTo get the pedigree of a racehorse, you need to obtain the letters and numbers tattoed on the inside of the upper lip. Sometimes it is very difficult to see the number. Use a high digital camera, 4 MP or larger, cover the horses eyes so as not to frieghten the horse, and take a flash-photo, once the upper lip is rolled back. Enhance that photo of the inside of the horses lip, where the number is located, onto a computer screen and retrieve it. Check with any equine veternarian within your state, as to how to check the pedigree once you have retrieved the number.\n\nAt the sales/auctions the pedigree is listed in the catologue that is given out for free at the entrance to anyone who is interested, as sometimes, horses may not have a tattoo because they may never have raced or are too young, yearling. But, most racehorses are tattooed early in life. It is very difficult to retrieve any information, pedigree/race record/injuries/etc., without that tattoo, on the inside of the upper lip, especially in older horses, unless papers are offered at the time of purchase. Certain features may depict a type of pedigree, i.e., large head may indicate a Bold Ruler progeny, but, it is strictly a good guess at best. That tattoo on the inside of the upper lip is the best way to find out about a horses pedigree and racing history...\n\n\nI hope I have answered your question and thank you very much for your r


many Native Americans died because they were introduced to new diseases, they were used as slaves, and they were killed in fighting.  Colonists were also killed or died because of disease, starvation, and exposure.I think overall, there was an increase in greed and a hunger to gain power through conquering other nations.


riots in paris , workers on strike! , Sorbon university filled by police !

Aren't the French in chronic revolution? Strikes are the norm. Nightly car burnings are the norm (not even counting the recent Muslim commotion). It's a highly unstable culture, glad I'm not there (the few days I spent in Paris were more than enough for me).


we IM all the time for about 2 weeks now I've recently found out he had sexual encounter with a man, but promise he is not gay or BI, should I believe him and remember we all have a pass are drop him?

Ok let's make 2 things clear.A Guy cannot be straight if he had an encounter sexually with another guy it just doesn't work that way.\n\nAlso being drunk is no excuse nor is it a valid reason.Lots of guys get drunk but if they are straight you can be sure they still would never swing that way.\n\nFace it he is Bi so deal with it or find someone else.


If there is a higher power then it is very cruel to send down a new & innocent life only to snatch it away again.

The bible says that the wages of sin is death. Did the child sin? Of course not, this isn't my point. The bible also says that the rain falls on the just and the unjust. Inversely, as long as sin is in the earth, then the consequence of sin will fall upon the just and unjust as well. That's why Jesus came and died for us; so that through Him we may have life.\n\nI'm not just saying this. I, too, have suffered and lost greatly in life. I had to come to terms myself with regards to your question. In the end I found peace in knowing and accepting that God loves me, feels my pain, and cares deeply for me.


I bought a new Dell Dimension 9150 (delivered on 28/1/06) and within days I was troubled by a Windows Installer window appearing at any new start up, followed by a Sonic Update Manager Window which urged me to insert the "Sonic Manager" disk and click OK. Every time I started the computer I had to click the close button 8-10 times over 5 minutes before I could use the computer. There seemed to be nothing I could do about it, because Dell had not provided me with any Sonic software CD: when I contacted them by e-mail I received a completely irrelevant reply. Eventually I had to pay a “professional” £ 40 to have this fixed (it took him 1 hour). It seems that this problem has been described by many others before. Why Dell hasn’t done anything about it (e.g. ship the computer with the Sonic Software CD)?

Take a look at the dell support page...  They have adressed the problem and provided a fix.

depends on what part of maryland you're from. but venture into d.c. if you really want to meet some folks.  or better yet, go to a small church!!!  people are always willing to talk to a newcomer at a small congregation.  but d.c. has an exciting nightlife in adams morgan every night.

Ghosts, UFO, went to heaven/hell for a couple of minutes. Just curious to hear other peoples stories.

no.you should not believe in that,many people get offended but not me.u should believe god instead of that stuff.what i'm saying is some people just say they saw spirits just to get attention,if u see a video or a tv show that shows "Spirits"it's just a flashlight on the wall or a holographic projector.e-mail me sometime at surferchick@yahoo.com


Seriously this guy is a lunatic.. and he's offensive to everyone but WASPS.. do people actually believe that he's going to lead the way to God?

A lot of people do actually. Pat Robertson is the top mouth piece for the modern Pentecostal Revival. His is the kind that speaks in tongues and plays with snakes. And a great many people believe that their path is the ONLY path to salvation. Which is sad to think about, but horribly true. And a lot of the older Pentecostals think this country is headed down a spiral of sin, we need to be a Christian Theocracy, and the only way to stop Armageddon is to make sure everyone knows that theirs is the only true path to salvation.\n\nWhat's funny is that the Christian Right recently denounced Pat Robertson AND Jerry Fallwall.

Ok you want to get the points on your Quality Eval. \n\nI am a former Operations Manager in call centers. Here is what most reps missed.\n\nCheerful- say your greeting script cheerfully\n\nGain agreement with the customer- customer mentions his/her issue you reply, something like this," Mr____ ,so I understand you correctly you are calling today because your cell phone isnt working properly and you feel it may be the signal, is that correct?" Once your customer says yes to the question, then you can move on to helping him\n\nNo dead air. Never leave a customer listening to nothing, if you have to say "is it a nice day in______?" while you are looking for something on your system. If it takes too long put your customer on hold\n\nIf you are going to put a customer on hold ask the customer permission,"may I put you on hold for 1to 2 min" Customer says yes, you say thank you. Stopwatch your hold time, watch the phone (hold indicator time) never put your phone in wrap-up while on hold it tricks the main computer in the call center and messes up your talk time, it will look like you are spending too much time. Make sure that you come back to that customer after the time you gave him to check in. Come back on the phone and say, "thank you for holding Mr.___, I am still researching, may I proceed to keep you on hold?" \n\nThese are very important things\n\nOnce you feel you may have resolved the issue. make sure you gain agreement again with the customer. "is everything working properly?" \n\nuse words like great good, excellent, etc positive words always make the customer more happy they are talking to you.\n\nAfter you have gotten agreement that you have resolved the call you can then say, "is there anything else I can help you with today?" customer says no then you end the call with the script. never say bye bye at the end of a call. i know it is hard, but it lacks professionalism. \n\nIf the customer has other issues go back gain agreement, and go back through everything again..\n\nAs long as you do those things you will get top scores.


I had acne before pregnancy, and i took minocycline pills for it. it worked wonders. i had tried all kinds of creams and even paid $800.00 for laser treatment which also didn't work! Now that I am pregnant, i cannot use the pills. Does anyone have any suggestions? I try not to wear makeup, wash my face often..Its not like the acne thats huge huge pimples or anything, its just mild ~ and leaves lots and lots of redness. But i dont want anything that will dry my skin out too much! i wash with a mild apricot scrub to exfoliate the dead skin and use st. ives gentle cream cleanser for acne prone skin. i like the washes, but they obviously dont make the acne go away completely! HeLp!

First of all, you are doing WAY too much to your skin. You need to tone it down. The more you mess with it, the more irritated and red it's going to get. Another person suggested the Dove Skin Care for pregant women. You could give that a try. I hate to tell you this, but you may just be out of luck while you're pregnant. I usually have clear skin and I broke out while I was pregnant also. If it's hormones causing it, no face cream or scrub is going to stop the hormonal imbalance that's causing the acne.


Does it cause skin allergy or tanning etc...

Depends on the individual, and where you swim.\nPools don't cause any harm, as long as someone is watching and adjusting the water chemistry.  Swimming laps will make you feel livelier and better off, and you'll get into better physical shape.\nBe careful if you swim in the sea.  Watch for rip tides, and know what to do if you're caught by one.  Check with the local authorities to see if the water is bacteriologically contaminated.\nFresh water swimming is generally safe.  Just use common sense.\nUse sunscreen if you plan to be in the midday sun for a while.  Swimming tends to wash it off; reapply if necessary.
