What is this Scientology? Why does Tom Cruise get so cheesed off when people talk smack aboot it? What are some of the beliefs of Scientologists? I have the book Dianetics at my grammy's house, but I never read it...only glanced at first page or what not.

I get pretty cheesed off myself reading all the baloney that gets spewed forth on this forum about Scientology.\nJust between us two I'm also a bit weary answering the same questions about it.\nI must have answered over 100 or more in the last few weeks, trying to put some factual information out, between all the utter nonesense.\nSeems like some folks just use this forum as a garbage dump, instead of sharing any actual, factual knowledge the might have about a subject.\nHaving said all that (and sorry for dumping on you , please don't take it personally)\nScientology is an applied religious philosophy. When I say "applied" I mean you actually use it in your life to change or improve existing conditions. This is different from a religious practice. All religions if you learn about them have a basic philosphy, but they also have certain dogma, rituals and observances, and a certain faith or belief is required. There is nothing wrong with this, but Scientology is not that kind of religion. It does not intrude on anyones faiths of beliefs particularly in the area of God , the Supreme Being, or the Infinite. This area is left totally up to the indivdual, which is why you can be a practicing Jew for example and still use and apply the priniciples of Scientology in your life. It does not conflict. If anything it will enhance your understanding of your chosen religious practice.\nAnd it is only true for you according to your own observation and experience with it.\n\nThe most basic principle of Scientology is that YOU are your own immortal soul, that this is not a "thing" you HAVE but what YOU actually are.\nThe whole purpose of Scientology is to increase an individual's understanding and awareness of himself. And thereby his native abilities .\nWhen you do this the spere and zone of his positive influence increases and moves outward into his life, his family ,his friends, his groups and mankind which he is part of.\n\nHow this result is achieved is the "technology" of Scientology, which was developed by L.Ron Hubbard after his extensive research and the discoveries he made, about the human spirit.\n\nHe published a book in 1951 to communicate the basic principles he discovered called: " Scientology The Fundementals of Thought"\nThis is a MUCH easier read than Dianetics, (only about 100 pages instead of over 500) Dianetics does not explain Scientology since it preceded it and was first published in 1950.\n\nNow I know there have been some complaints that I keep telling people to read this book. I understand that some people just don't read books, or find reading difficult, but honestly the explanation and introduction to the subject is fully contained in this book. And you can apply it's principles right away, for yourself.\nThat way you can actually experience what it is for yourself. Then maybe you can help me to answer these questions !@!!*!!\nBecause then you will KNOW.


I have lots of sports collector cards I would like to sell. And get some help to figure out what they are worth.

First of all, I'm not a sports card buyer from Boise Idaho.  I am in fact a interested sports card buyer from Pennsylvania.  Do you have any football cards you are looking to sell?  I understand that you are looking for help on how to determine the value of your cards.  If you have any football, please let me know, maybe we can do some business.  I'm a honest man, don't want to be cheated and don't want to cheat you....meaning the value of the cards.


Feel Good Hit of the Summer - Queens of the Stone Age.  You'll feel better


practice makes perfect...you need to find an experienced person who will help you excel.  It is in your best interest to always spar with someone who is better then you who will "press" you but not hurt you. Some people have egos and end up hurting you. In terms of punches the heavy bag is one of the best methods.  As long as you have some one monitoring your technique you can only get better. Mitts are also a great technique to practice and perfect your "moves".(hopefully I hope I answered this correctly)


Do Crest Whitening Strips actually work???

I do not recommend using them because they are not approved by the ADA (American Dental Association).  To whiten your teeth you should see your dentist.


I know a girl from 5 years ago but now i want to know that does she love me or not. I never told her that I love her but I tried to help her in the best ways.

I guess both of you don't love each other cos you as a guy must open to her that you truly love her. Well you can still make a change on that cos its not too late. Try to open up for her and stop pretending and I guess she will also open up to you.


and to evaluate progress and performance, and to control the project?\nIn project management

A project basline is basically a version of the project plan saved just after the project planning is complete and before project execution begins.  It's the plan on day one of execution.\n\nIt can contain schedule, cost, and work (level of effort) information.\n\nBy comparing the current forecast to the baseline you can compare where you actually are, to where you said you would be.\n\nYou can also use the baseline to get into something called earned value, which is a more advanced way to compare cost and time performance against the baseline.


The larger of two printers being used to print the payroll for a major corpation requries 40 min to print the payroll. After both printers have been operating for 10 min, the larger peinter malfunctions.  The smaller printer requires 50 more minutes to complete the payroll.  How long would it take the smaller printer, working alone, to print the payroll?

The first one does 1/40 of the job per minute.\nThe second one does 1/x of the job per minute.\n\nThe first one worked for 10 minutes.\nThe second one worked for 10+50 = 60 minutes.\n\nOne job was completed.\n\nThat is all you need to know to solve for x.\n\nHere is your equation:\n10/40 + 10/x + 50/x = 1\n\nSolve for x as follows:\n10/40 + (10/x + 50/x) = 1\n10/40 + 60/x = 1\n60/x = 1 - 10/40\n60/x = 3/4\n60(4) = 3x\n240 = 3x\nx = 80\n\nIt would take printer2 80 minutes to do it alone.\n\nSanity check- plug your answer into the original equation:\nDoes 10/40 + 10/80 + 50/80 = 1?\nHmmm, looks like 10/40 = 20/80\nso (20 + 10 + 50)/80 = 1?\nYes.  So your answer is right.


I want to become fluent in a certain language and I heard that the Rosetta Stone was supposed to be good- does anybody know if that's actually true?

YES!!!\n\nI tried Pimsleur and some of the other software options before using the Rosetta Stone software and was amazed at the higher level of learning that I achieved with the Rosetta Stone’s software.  I've used it for Spanish and Latin (Latin was more of a refresher) and was incredibly pleased. They get an A+ in my book!


A house in Chicago costs $1M.  A similar house in Peapatch, IA costs $100k.  Does the Peapatch house cost 10 times less than the Chicago house?  Ten times *what* less?  Aren't the more appropriate phrases "90 percent less" or "one tenth?"

one tenth is probably best in that situation, but it's a weird question to ask on a saturday night...


I was on this site yesterday and some dude mentioned that Latina women are so awsome and excellect and other women weren't even half as good. I'm not hating or anything, but I hope that this is not true. Are all other women really that unnattractive?

Of course we are beautiful!!  Smartgirl, you are too smart to let this one man's preference make you doubt yourself.  Latina women are pretty, but that's not to say that other women are not half as good.  I don't know why people can't give a compliment without slamming others.  There is beauty in all races.  This is true for us as well.  From our full lips to our rounded hips to that fantastic African shelf--we're slamming!  I'm not conceited by the way; I just appreciate what God made me and I don't care if y'all either can't or refuse to see it. :o)

What is the estimated % of protection from the Microgynon pill alone? What is the most reliable form of protection? Any recommendations or ones to avoid?

Actually its about 95% realiable provided u dont miss a pill (which means for more than 12hrs). Abstinence is of course the most reliable...not the most fun but yes most reliable :P. Intra uterine devices are good too but comes with side effects like increase vaginal thrush and increase chance of pelvic inflammatory disease. Condom with additional spermicide is a pretty good choice too. U may also wanna check out Evra patches...u patch it on and u only need to replace it once a week.


Email me if you know if he should be mad at me.

If your boyfriend was mature, he would not have gotten jealous. What he has to understand is that everyone has a past: Past relationships, old friends, etc. It's all about maturity, not jealousy.\nMy boyfriend and I have a great relationship. We're both understanding about each others past. Maybe you need to seat down and talk to him about unresolved issues


Sealer should be made of stainless steel (can stand wash down procedures)

I use my wife.  She automaticly seals bags like nobody's business!  She may not be made of stainless steel but she definately can stand the wash down procedures!


Is it on the low end of aggression insofar as wasps go, medium level of aggression?

The paper wasp is about medium in levels of aggressive when compared to aggressive species like bald-faced hornets, or giant Japanese wasps, and with low aggression species like honeybees or bumblebees.\n\nHowever, the vast majority of the wasp Order (Hymenoptera) go completely unnoticed by humans because they are very tiny, or do not bother humans at all.  Many of them are parasitic on other species of insects, using their stinger to lay their eggs inside caterpillars or other pests, and are actually quite beneficial to man.  These wasps generally go unrecognized because they are tiny.  In some cases, smaller than the period at the end of this sentence.  Compared to these wasps, paper wasps are insanely aggressive towards humans.


i know he fancies the hell outta me, and i know his the one for me. give me sum advice, and when shall i kiss him?

really you should wait and let him make the move and dont be sluty and kiss him as soon as u meet him. Try to be hard to get because guys love to have the thrill for the hunt.


were just sayin the illegals need to get out, wat part about illegal do u not understand, they r hurting r country, and dont give me any BS about that

Yep. We have similar problems up in Canada with another ethnic group. We welcome immigrants, if its legal. Otherwise they live for years absorbing money without paying taxes, and sending a good portion of this money back to their home countries, where it is no longer is able to add to the nations economy.\n\nBTW-illsuitedwan... what's your definition of illegal???Illegals do NOT pay taxes, they are paid under the table (illegally) to avoid getting caught.As soon as the IRS recieves tax information on an illegal, the department of immigration is notified and deportation process begins.  Unless unemployment in the US (and Canada for that matter) is at zero percent which it has never been.  then there are 'legal' citizens who need the work, and would pay taxes. Employers get away with hiring illegals and paying them far less than the minimum wage (because they're illegal), automatically putting these people below the poverty line. So how is this helping them?


Please visit http://americanidol.onourtv.com/ and let me know whether you agree with the polling for best performance on American Idol this week.

I totally agree! Thats exactly how I would have ranked them!


i am in Manchester, England.I am just sat here wondering where you all from?? Let me know??

Bristol, England although most people who use yahoo will be from the U.S.A!!!\nGo england!!!


illegal immigrants demands on our country is very unhealthy and very intrussive,(workers program, legal status,ect...) what is your opinion ?

We shouldn't "bow down" to anyone. We are american citizens, most of us 2nd or 3rd generation foreign-born. Our ancestors had to deal with racism and religion problems and the language difference, and so should immigrants now. If they want us to do anything for them, they should learn English and about our culture and take the Citizenship Test, then we'll go from there.


Bigfoot, or the Wolf Man.\n\nBoth are big hairy dudes with bad attitudes.  \n\nDisclaimer:  I know there is no such thing as the Wolf Man, and that the existence of Bigfoot is highly questionable.  I also know that you are highly unlikely to get either one into a bar, what with the "No shirt, no shoes, no service" policy.  This is just for fun.

Presumably, the wolf man leads a double life as a normal person, and should therefore have some cash.  I'd rather party with him, because I'm not "footing" the bartab for that other guy.


I have set the default language to Arabic now when i type in text boxes it types arabic but whne i save its not saved properly.


i want to win the middle school wrestling! I'm 68.7inch and I'm 83lb.my waist size is 20inch and my hipsize is 15inch.and I'm vegetarian. i was lose when i was 14yrs. because one bulky boy crushed me on my stomach.  i know i'm weak and too light. but i want to win. how can i win and what size am i in wrestling?>?\n\nplease tell me.

y'know what ?? you look the perfect type for executing single leg and double leg takedown type of offences.\n\nyou have the speed advantage, learn to turn and move fluidly on the ground,i've been wrestled helpless by a thin,lightweight guy at my gym.\n\nlisten,at the cost of sounding funny, you must take to conditioning and building your strength.I'll suggest the breathing exercises provided at http://www.sandowplus.co.uk/Competition/Burns/lessons/lesson01.htm .Try ONLY the breathing exercises at first or you'll injure yourself.They'll strengthen you up like you'll not believe right now.\n\nRemember breathing alone has made many a weak men strong and many a sick men well.\n\nAlso,concentrate on tripping takedowns, they are relatively easier as the position of the leg coupled by an average sprawl can do wonders.\n\nGood Luck.


i'm not that sexually active and i've been sleepin with the same guy for months now so why now? how can you just suddenly get herpes? (and i know he could've cheated but lets just say he didn't)

Herpes is a virus.  Your body's immune system, when at it's peak, will battle the virus, and keep the outbreak of a lesion at bay. \n\nHowever, when your immune system is over-worked it's ability to fight all the bacteria, parasites, and fungi that it is exposed to, is reduced.  Hence, the outbreak.  \n\nThink of it like a see-saw or scale.  When your immune system is functioning optimally, the scales are balanced. And, your immune system is keeping all attackers under control.  Throw a virus into the mix ... now the immune system has to battle all the same attackers, plus the virus.  In most instances, the immune system will maintain the balance.  But, when you 'catch' something else, like a cold, or are exposed to other people with the flu, your immune system becomes challenged, and the scales tip. \n\nVirus' are more persistent, and tougher for the immune system to erradicate than bacteria.  So, at times of immuno-challenges, the virus will win out, thereby producing the lesion. \n\nIf you had chicken pox as a child, then you were first introduced to Herpes then.  The virus has been laying dormant all these years in your body. Some change has occurred in your life, recently, that is putting additional strain on your immune system, and alas, Herpes reared its ugly head.\n\nBeing a college student, you are exposed to people from all over, with a whole host of immuno histories of their own.  Chances are pretty good that, as a student, you're probably not getting sufficient, quality sleep.  Are maybe not eating as well as you should, and are maybe consuming more alcohol (which is a signifant challenge to the immune system).  \n\nSo, before you jump all over your partner for cheating, explore your life 'style'.  Assess your diet, sleep and exercise patterns.  Remember that adage ... 'garbage in - garbage out'.


My friend has been weightlifting for a while. He is covered with  veins on his hands and from beyond his palm to about his elbows. When he stands up his veins show on his hands and they show more on his right hand.

so? i weight lift a lot and my vein grew too, it's just because weigh lifting increases ur blood pressure while u r lifting which stretches the veins, plus with the protein supplements it gets worse, if it's like really bad like u can see a 1/2 inch pipe running doin his fore arm have him go to see a doctor


I have a 3 year old that is just learning the computer. She tends to make mistakes, and can mess up the computer. I was wondering if there is a way that I can lock the computer while she is in a game so when she presses the wrong button it won't screw up the computer?

make a user account for her, deny access to c folder files without the proper passcode.


What do you do to promote a healthier community?\n\nDo you volunteer and is so for what?

Yes, I do volunteer quite often.  Twice a week, I volunteer as a tour guide at the Houston Museum of Natural Science, I volunteer two days a week as a mentor at a school for troubled teens, and I am voluntarily heading/organizing a science program at a local community center.  I was raised in a very bad neighborhood and was fortunate enough to meet some wonderful people that helped me stay on track.  Now that I have grown up and graduated from college, I thought that it would be great to give back to the community.


I guess in terms on Television audience rather then participation would be easier to work with.

Association football, soccer or simply football is a team sport played between two teams consisting of eleven players each. It is a ball game played on a rectangular grass field with a goal at each end. The objective of the game is to score by manoeuvring the ball into the opposing goal. Other than the goalkeepers, players may not use their hands or arms to propel the ball in general play. The winner is the team which has scored most goals at the end of the match.\n\nThe sport is known by many names throughout the English-speaking world, although football is the most common. Other names, such as association football and soccer, are often used to distinguish the game from other codes of football, since the word football may be used to refer to several quite different games.\n\nFootball is played at a professional level all over the world, and millions of people regularly go to football stadia to follow their favourite team, whilst billions more avidly watch the game on television. A very large number of people also play football at an amateur level.\n\nAccording to a survey conducted by Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA), football's governing body, published in the spring of 2001, over 240 million people regularly play football in more than 200 countries in every part of the world. Its simple rules and minimal equipment requirements have no doubt aided its spread and growth in popularity. In many parts of the world football evokes great passions and plays an important role in the life of individual fans, local communities, and even nations; it is therefore often claimed to be the most popular sport in the world. Because of this it is often dubbed the World's Favourite Pastime.

About 4 hours or so I had 4 boiled eggs ( I made a salad ) and I got sick afterwards, but not as sick as to throw up. My stomach isn't ok still.. Do you know any remedies? I don't want pills, I may not find them , I'm not from America. Also I have to mention that I had two boiled eggs this morning. It's 12 o'clock at night here. Thanks.

you need to FART and man it will be STINKY!! good luck \n\n\nOKAY LIKE BIG DUH HERE EGGS CAUSE GAS SO FART!! I'M NOT THE DUMB*SS THAT ATE EGGS ALL DAY LONG. YOU DID SWEETHEART!! AND WHEN YOU HAVE GAS IT HURTS SO TO HELP YOU FART WALK AROUND(WALKING HELPS YOUR BODY RELEASE GAS) INSTEAD OF SITTING ON THE COMPUTER AND IF IT IS REALLY THAT BAD WHICH I HIGHLY DOUBT YOU WOULD BE AT A HOSPITAL. TAKE SOME GAS X TO HELP RELIEVE YOU OF THE GAS PAIN.


I think that Kasey Kahne got lucky and sent spies to the Roush garage and purposely loosened Carl's car.  If Carl had a tighter car, he would of won it.

I had heard the dodge charger had a balance problem\nfront to rear last year, and now it was fixed. It looks like\nwere going in to the Chrysler dominated racing of the 60's\npetty era.If they put there German engineering racing\nformula giants in to the mix team it and pool it and pull\npeople in on there products together and unify them,they will dominate. If they can keep it out of the Charlotte click\nour Earnhardt,Gordan's,Johnson's will just have to get used to\nbeing in the middle of the pack or go German/dodge.


Personally my opinions on religion would not fit in this box. I think i would fill this box so much with all the religion bullshit that its not even funny. There is so much that religion contradics its self and its full of bullshit. But anyways let me know what you think. Thank You!!

I personally think the too don't mix well....\n\nI dont think there is anything wrong with being gay, but there isnt much room for homosexuality in religion. Technically, being gay is a sin, but we are all sinners....


My partners grandmum died last week.  We've been together almost 3 years but i never met her.  They weren't close.   Should i go to the funeral?

I would, no questions asked, out of respect for your partner.\n\nDont Go = Look Bad/Wheres your partner/Who Cares/I dont know\nGo = Wow, what a nice person. Thanks for being there.\n\nYou can figure it out.


What are some good remedies for dry skin? (on body and cheeks, homemade ones welcome)

Drink more water. Don't use bar soap. Don't use really hot water to bathe. Exfoliate and use vaseline on your body at night.


STARTING TODAY EVERYTIME I PUT A DVD INTO THE DVD ROM DRIVE MY COMPUTER AUTOMATICALLY RESTARTS ITSELF EACH TIME.IAM WONDERING WHY ITS DOING THIS AND IF ANYONE KNOWS A WAY TO FIX THIS PROBLEM.

See if it also reboots when you put a CD in it.  If not then you just have to reload the DVD driver.  If it reboots even with the CD then it sounds like the drive itself may be bad.  You can try leaving a DVD or CD in the drive then turning the computer on to see if it stays on.


I'm starting to think more and more that the government has a plan. Allow a situation to escalate to the brink of chaos, then us martial law as a power grab. Maybe I watch too much of '24' but it it feasible. It'll be the perfect reason to implement a National I.D. Card and start monitoring each and every citizen (kinda like in the Bible ... you know, like the last chapter). Politicians can play games all they want but all it takes is one border patrol agent getting shot and killed by a Mexican gang, or a coyote smuggler and that will unleash a wave of protests by legal American citizens that would make the Day Without an Immigrant look like a small time gathering. Before any guest worker program can be effective, this country needs to put on lockdown so we can do a proper head count. And with the 2010 census fast approaching, there's no better time than right now.

I agree in part with you. Sans the biblical reference and the "lock down". I feel it has been this administrations agenda all along to implement National I.D. card with micro chips...maybe even implanted directly in to our own skin. What I feel is needed more than a lock down is a revolution of the people. Just as Americans revolted against the original King George...We need to step and and revolt against King George W....We need OUR AMERICA back. I want the Constitution to mean something again!


Take this as an example there are 2 Guys identical in every way apart from one. One guy has a 9 inch penis and the other has a 6 inch penis. Now you tell me which one most women will pick.


He tries hard to divide india by provoking upon Varansi issue.(thanks to all Indians who did not became violent) and then starts Rath yatra in the name of unity(during elections)

Our counry is lucky that majority throw him out of power(and may not like to come to power again to avoid more state burn like a Gujarat.)It is BJP policy to divide and rule.He ran the most ever currupted government.\nSo no more rath yatra please(that will save lot of petrol too)


It seems like I am the only person in cincinnati to still listen to HIP HOP... not rap (here is a difference). Is there any1 out there anywhere who is a true hip hop soul like myself? I think that I am the last of a dying breed...

You are not alone. I still love true Hip Hop and, there is definitely a difference between it and rap. Rap glorifies material things and degrades women, while Hip Hop is is a positive music culture that has influenced the entire world.


Is it the cutbacks in education funding??

I have often seen these mistakes go unchecked by the teachers at my daughter's school. When I asked why, I was told that the thoughts and emotions being expressed were more important than the manner in which they were expressed. I disagree. I cannot take a person seriously if they cannot spell and punctuate. I'm afraid I automatically assume they are stupid. Sorry!


The NEW Man's English, tells me......\nyou spell cheese, KRAFT.   You spell relief, ROLAIDS..\nam I going to hell?\n\nDo I need to repeat the 3rd grade for the 4th time?\n\nDo I get a Sr. citizen discount on school lunches?

I don't think you're going to hell because you can't read the KJV of the bible.  There are so many versions out there...who can say which is really 'right'?  I think it's all a matter of finding your own path to spirituality.  Tomayto...tomahto.\n\nI do think it's sad how many people can't appreciate older versions of the English language...when I hear good actors perform Shakespeare or I read a classic novel like Wuthering Heights, I realize how LAZY and TRITE modern English is.


Because of the ethnic, racial mixture of people living there.


Me and my cousin has fighting over if Oklahoma was a northern or southern state. Does anyone know for sure? I say it's a southern state.

I am a native Okie and took Oklahoma history in high school.  During the Civil War Oklahoma was not yet a state of the Union.  It was called Indian Territory, occupied by several tribes with assigned tribal lands.  Indian Territory was neutral during the Civil War.  Some fought for the Northern Yanks and some fought for the Southern Rebels.  I would consider Oklahoma today to be Southern.\n1. Onced and twiced are words. \n2. Coldbeer is one word. \n3. People actually grow and eat okra. \n4. Green grass DOES burn. \n5. Fix-in-to is one word. \n6. There ain't no such thing as "lunch". There is only breakfast, dinner and then there's supper. \n7. "Ice tea" is appropriate for all meals, and you start drinking it when you are one or so. \n8. You can switch from "heat" to "A/C" in the same day.\n9. Stores don't have bags. They have sacks. \n10. You know what "cow tipping" and "snipe hunting" are. \nand many more upon request.

I'm 19 years old and a premed bio student. I've always known that becoming a doctor would be hard, and I've always been willing and eager to do the work that came along with it. I've recently been considering other career options because I want more hands on now, I don't want to wait until med school until I can start working with people and getting the real experience. I was thinking about becoming a nurse, preferably an RN or a Certified Pediatric Nurse Practitioner and then going back to med school to finish my studies to become the pediatrician I've always wanted to be. Is this a horrible career choice? I have no idea if this is even possible. Help?

It is possible, but remember that once you are working is going to be hard to study.\nlike u I want to go to med school, but i decided not to hurry, you can always have contact with patients if you become voluntary member of a hospital or a clinic. that way u can iteract with patitens onl when u have the time, withut feeling the pressure that is your real job, and that also u have to study.


it is only 90 euros which i need to send to pay for a small hotel who do not accept credit cards

I need a proper defination..It is my school work.It is either an idiom or a proverb..So maybe teachers or smart people out there plz answer this question of mine now!!Thank you.The first one who gives a proper one will be chosen by Asker(which is me) as e best answer!!

Deeds, not words shall speak me. \nJohn Fletcher\nEnglish dramatist (1579 - 1625) \n\nHe's saying that he will speak with action, not just by words themselves. Many people blow hot air, few go out and do something about it.


Since the Vietnam war they've been fighting.... they're still fighting overseas, why doesn't US do anything?  They fought for us and now they're still fighting overseas... I don't think it's fair that they are still dying over somthing that happened over 30 years ago....  What do you think about this issue?  If you're interested you could google it... "Hmong"

Do you know any people group that is truly at peace?\n\nI love the Hmong people. I wish the US would do something for them, too. Maybe I'm pesimistic, but I just don't see the US making much effort these days to make anyone's lives more peaceful.


This is the girl from my last question.  She has hinted for me to come last time we talked by saying different kinds of things.  She has also talked it over with her whole family, and they think we would go good together.  I mean i really wanna do it, but i would like to hear some opinoins on this-would it be scary or sweet?

If I had been hinting about it, and then he drove out to see me it would make me really happy. go see her!!!!

I love this type of science - this is the only science that I know _-- Earth Science!\n\nIn 1963, Fred Vine, Drummond Matthews, and others found that the crust surrounding the midocean ridges showed alternating bands -- each band magnetized with a polarity opposite the surrounding bands. They suggested that as new sea-floor crust was formed around the rift in the midocean ridge, it magnetized differently, depending upon the polarity of the planet at that time. This supported the theory that Harry Hess had put forth, that the ocean progressivley widens as new sea floor is created along a crack that follows the crest of midocean ridges.\n\nIn 1966, earth scientists first identified the Jaramillo Event, the wholesale reversal of Earth's magnetic fields some 900,000 years ago. This confirmed the theory that Earth's magnetic field had flip-flopped through the planet's life, and it made Matthews and Vine's 1963 finding quite clear. They realized that the pattern of reversals matched perfectly the magnetic profile they had compiled of the sea floor. This discovery, together with data from a 1964 research vessel, transformed the field of geology. It confirmed sea-floor spreading as hypothesized by Hess, and thus "continental drift," originally proposed by Alfred Wegener back in 1912. It convinced many that plate tectonics was the best theory to unify nearly all the previously accumulated, but disjoint geological data.


Tylenol does nothing for me, and I wasn't sure how effective Motrin or Ibuprofen would be in comparison to the Exedrin. Would you reccomend a heating pad or anything else also?

A heating pad would make the pain worse.  Ice pack would be better.  I also find that ibuprofen works the best for tooth pain.


Im 20, but I get offers from guys as young as 13, and as old as 84 and most of the ages in between. How do I set my limits? Any suggestions?

What age feels comfortable? I think intellectual capacity should be what we focus on more than age, that being the case, it still feels weird to have a 7th grader hitting on you lol. I'm 20 as well so I know what you mean. I think as long as you're on the same mental page, it's ok, but 84 is maybe pushing it...

the one with small capital no good working place.

Do what you know or sell what you know. If you have any skill in doing something is the best business you can do. Skill business do not requiet big capitor or good place. Just some tools and a place at home will do. Most important is your skill. If you want to sell things, make sure you have the product knowledge. You can start from being a broker. You do not need big capitor, just find who want to sell and who want to buy . The most important things is do what you know the best.

Ok, so you go to a judge that tells you that you are to be hanged one day next week (Monday-Friday) and it will be a complete surprise to you. You decide that it can't be Friday because if it was you would know on Thursday after you weren't hanged. It couldn't be Thursday because if it wasn't Wednesday you would know it was Thursday therefore making it impossible, so none of the days will be a surprise. On wedensday you are hanged. What was wrong with your logic?\nFor a better explanation go here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unexpected_hanging_paradox

The flaw is that you work backward, and the week moves forward. On Monday there are five days you can be hanged on, on Tues. four days, etc. Just a different point of view. Besides, no matter when they hanged you, it would have been surprising, since you had convinced yourself it wasn't going to happen. So really, you invalidate your own reasoning. You logically cannot be hanged and have it be surprising, therefore when you are hanged, it is surprising.

Is it true that most people who are against abortion are pro-war? That seems bizzare to be against one form of murder, but rally around and support another kind of murder. Killing is killing, right?

Most people have the belief that killing is wrong (or immoral).\n\nWhen this belief is mixed with other beliefs (eg the right of a person to liberty), then the two beliefs have to be valued (or graded) so that one will prevail in a given situation. This is our ethical framework\n\nSo whilst we all believe that it is morally wrong to kill, we may agree that ethically it is neccessary when other beliefs (like our self preservation) are more important\n\nBecause we grade our beliefs in different ways, there will be no single view on what is right or wrong. So a Quaker (or pacifist) will never agree with a combat marine - both agree that killing is immoral but have different frameworks of importance (the latter will place integrity of country above the death of a hostile soldier wheras the former will not)\n\nMurder is defined as unlawful killing of another human being; the marine would argue that their actions are lawful and therefore not murder. Equating abortion with murder is incorrect; it is not unlawful and the science on when a foetus becomes a sentient human being unclear.


well i am involed with a married man and i dont like doing this because i dont want anybody to do it to me. His wife treats him bad and the thing he wants her to do she want so thats where i fall in i do them (fix him breakfast)and other things. thats why i ask what should i do.

Don't waste your time on this guy, while you dealing with him you might be missing out on someone good. Don't forget that saying, "What goes around, comes around" You don't want this to happen to you, so be careful. You deserve more, you should want to cook for your own man, not someone else man. Believe it or not, he is giving you an excuse to cheat on his wife. My question is, how you know his wife is doing him wrong?


In our company, two of the people have put up a small amount of capital. The other two are working for free to get it going. What is an equitable arrangement?

all equal partners, when the money comes, pay those who ut up the capital and since whos working eventually they should get more share, plus eventually those non workers need to get out in given time like 3 yrs, 5 or ven 10yrs, but there must be a expiration date for non workers, or a renewal date.


Let's consider this.  Those of you who talk about how your "faith" lets you know the Bible is the word of God...  When Moses brought down the Ten Commandments, he had to convince people they were God's word.  The primitive fools believed him.  And now, you believe THEM.\n\nHow is that any different from Pat Robertson doing the same?  Why wouldn't you believe him?\n\nBecause your common sense will tell you he's full of it.  Apply your common sense to the rest of the bible now.  All it is, is the words of men, who claimed to be inspired by God.  Did these men have faith?  No!  God came down and appeared to them!  God proved he existed to them.  Why won't he do that for you?\n\nI'll tell you why.  The Bible was written by con-men.  Men just like Pat Robertson.  But because the con was played 2000 years ago, you're not face to face with the con-man.  It's not as easy to picture.  Open your eyes!\n\nSo, tell me how I'm wrong, Christians.

I would not believe him, but, unfortunately millions of others would. Why? Look at the Mormon church - that's what exactly happened. The angel Moroni apparently visited Joseph Smith on a remote hillside in NY state in the 1800's and exposed gold scriptures to him. Smith translated these scriptures from a language he couldn't speak and got some of his relatives to witness that this was true.\n\nIt's nonsense. But the LDS is also a financial success and one of the fastest growing cults in history. There are no shortage of brainless morons lining up to believe this garbage - although they tend to hold a slightly different view than I do.


i wonder if these players can ever be compared taking into consideration the fact that they plyed in totally different generations but it is very true that soccer is becoming more complicated than yesteryears...

I think its too early to judge the players.  Can they ever be judged?  Well people are going to do it anyways despite the different types of conditions present in the different eras.  So, to get on with comparing, I would say that Ronaldinho is not yet better than Maradonna was.  I know that Maradonna fans would not even like the idea that he was being compared to anyone, let alone  a player like Ronaldinho, who is only half-way through his best years as a player.  Maradonna fans even have trouble with his being compared to Pele in the never-ending debate about the greatest player of all time.  What I will say though is that it is possible that Ronaldinho will surpass Maradonna.  Whether he does or doesn't remains to be seen.  If he does surpass him though, I don't think that you could ever say that Ronaldinho was even twice better than Maradonna.  Remember, Maradonna was a very great player.  Could Ronaldinho really ever be twice better?  No.  He will be a fraction better.  And believe me that will be enough to get Maradonna fans all around world up in arms...


I know you should take it after a weight working out but I wasn't sure about cardio.

The most effective way to do cardio for fat burning purposes is on an empty stomack that will cause your body to go directly to your fat deposites for energy however once your routine is done your body will begin to look for protiens for energy meaning it will target your muscles which is bad so yes you should do a protien shake or eat breakfast after your cardio session. One more thing, if you are trying to gain muscle you should also train as mentioned but mix some Glutamine in a glass of water prior to your session, this will help keep your body from breaking down muscle.


Unable to sleep because they start so early 7:00AM, Condo full of silt from demolition, disturbes daily home business

Not to be a jerk or anything but if you are running a home business don't you think you should be getting up as early as 7:00am anyways?\n\nYou could always plug your ears with ear plugs when you go to sleep, coupled by playing some soft music it may actually help dround out the noise.\n\nAbout disturbing your business you may want to contact the city to see what options they may be able to suggest.


Apparently General Mugabe has passed away, it's sad I know but it happens. The good news is he stashed away about thirty (30) million US dollars. His son wants to transfer the money to my account to get it out of the country. He will pay me eight (8) million US dollars for my trouble. \n\nThink I should send him my bank account number for the transfer of funds and help the poor guy out?

NO, you should send your bank acount number me!  I'll protect it for you!


I want out of the millitary. I'm having medical issue with depression, and every day it gets worse. I got to drills once a month and everytime my depression gets worse. I can't do it anymore i'm only 17 y/o. Can i get dicharged from the millitary for depression?

WRONG smcin278. You CAN enter the service at 17. I know this for a fact, because I was 17 when I entered the USMC in 1985. You must have graduated high school, and have parental consent. But it is possible. As for this question, dude, it is possible for you to get the discharge.But if you're truly depressed, that will NOT change anything about your condition. I have met and dealt with MANY young men such as yourself in my career, and I can tell you that IT WILL NOT HELP> If anything, it will only ADD to your depression. Because for the rest of your life, you'll look back on this period of it and consider yourself a failure. THAT is not a cure for depression. The military has got a great medical dept., and they also have clergy there to help you sort thorough any issues you have. And lastly I would suggest you request permission to speak with your drill Sgt. or what ever branch you're in, the equivalent.\nHe is a man. As much as you fear and/or hate him, he IS just a man. And he has feelings, and insight that will help you work through this. Just like me, he has seen this before. Part of the military is DESIGNED to make you feel this way. Then they build you back up in a "military manner", making you a better, and emotionally stronger person than you have ever been. You just have to hang tough, and work thorough it, not run from it. TRUST ME!!! IT WILL follow you.I wish you the best of luck.\nPaul Welch G.Sgt. U.S.M.C.


Sorry im just curios because this is my first time breastfeeding, I have been breastfeeding my baby for about 1 year and in this time I had no period but lately im starting to feel really bloated and crampy and feel like im putting on weight, whats going on?  Where is the period that is supposed to be flowing going? Anyone know? Please help?

I know when I breastfeed my daughter I didn't have a period for about a year, but as soon as I started to ween her off it came back.  You might want to call your doctor.


I plead guilty to furshing minor with alchol and theft <500 and >20

I'm not sure what the laws are for each state, but if I were the superintendant of schools I know I would not hire you under any circumstances.  Put yourself in the place of a parent placing their children in the care of an individual who was convicted of contributing to the delinquincy of a minor with alcohol and theft.  What kind of a role model is that for our children.  Time to look for another trade.  If you were to be hired in my school district with that type of criminal record, I would form a group to call for the immediate dismissal of both you, the principal, and the superintendant of schools for making such a poor decision in hiring of an individual with that type of criminal record.\n\nI think you already knew the answer you were going to get, time to find a new trade or profession far away from the shaping of young minds.

i really need a free microsoft publisher alternative (preferably open source or for linux)\npost anything, i'm desperate!\nps. i heard of something like fublisher\nany help greatly apreciated

I recommend Scribus as a free alternative to MS  Publisher but if you only want more simple functions then open office. I use Scribus at school and think its very good. However, it was running on Linux OS and ive never tried the windows version. Wouldn't have thought there would be any difference though.


a friend of mine gets paid cash weekly ,but when time to make income taxes , he has zero. does his boss claims him on his income , or how does it go . he also doesn't have no insurance or benefits from that job . appreciate any information given . there are 3 more workers , and they go through the same thing .

Turn him in.  What he's doing is called tax fraud.  People like him are the reason we pay so much in taxes.  Seriously, I wish you wouldn't have even mentioned this, because now I'm going to be pi$$ed all day long.  I know of way too many people drawing disability and getting food stamps that work a few hours here and there and get paid cash.  They're worthless, lazy, no-count, welfare receiving, tax fraud bums that need to spend a little time locked up for their worthlessness.


Function, NO...Desciption below....\nEvery machine on the Internet has a unique identifying number, called an IP Address. A typical IP address looks like this: \n\n216.27.61.137 \nTo make it easier for us humans to remember, IP addresses are normally expressed in decimal format as a "dotted decimal number" like the one above. But computers communicate in binary form. Look at the same IP address in binary: \n\n\n11011000.00011011.00111101.100... \nThe four numbers in an IP address are called octets, because they each have eight positions when viewed in binary form. If you add all the positions together, you get 32, which is why IP addresses are considered 32-bit numbers. Since each of the eight positions can have two different states (1 or 0) the total number of possible combinations per octet is 28 or 256. So each octet can contain any value between 0 and 255. Combine the four octets and you get 232 or a possible 4,294,967,296 unique values! \n\nOut of the almost 4.3 billion possible combinations, certain values are restricted from use as typical IP addresses. For example, the IP address 0.0.0.0 is reserved for the default network and the address 255.255.255.255 is used for broadcasts. \n\nThe octets serve a purpose other than simply separating the numbers. They are used to create classes of IP addresses that can be assigned to a particular business, government or other entity based on size and need. The octets are split into two sections: Net and Host. The Net section always contains the first octet. It is used to identify the network that a computer belongs to. Host (sometimes referred to as Node) identifies the actual computer on the network. The Host section always contains the last octet. There are five IP classes plus certain special addresses: \n\n\nDefault Network - The IP address of 0.0.0.0 is used for the default network. \n\nClass A - This class is for very large networks, such as a major international company might have. IP addresses with a first octet from 1 to 126 are part of this class. The other three octets are used to identify each host. This means that there are 126 Class A networks each with 16,777,214 (224 -2) possible hosts for a total of 2,147,483,648 (231) unique IP addresses. Class A networks account for half of the total available IP addresses. In Class A networks, the high order bit value (the very first binary number) in the first octet is always 0. \nNet Host or Node \n115. 24.53.107 \n\n\n\nLoopback - The IP address 127.0.0.1 is used as the loopback address. This means that it is used by the host computer to send a message back to itself. It is commonly used for troubleshooting and network testing. \n\nClass B - Class B is used for medium-sized networks. A good example is a large college campus. IP addresses with a first octet from 128 to 191 are part of this class. Class B addresses also include the second octet as part of the Net identifier. The other two octets are used to identify each host. This means that there are 16,384 (214) Class B networks each with 65,534 (216 -2) possible hosts for a total of 1,073,741,824 (230) unique IP addresses. Class B networks make up a quarter of the total available IP addresses. Class B networks have a first bit value of 1 and a second bit value of 0 in the first octet. \nNet Host or Node \n145.24. 53.107 \n\n\n\nClass C - Class C addresses are commonly used for small to mid-size businesses. IP addresses with a first octet from 192 to 223 are part of this class. Class C addresses also include the second and third octets as part of the Net identifier. The last octet is used to identify each host. This means that there are 2,097,152 (221) Class C networks each with 254 (28 -2) possible hosts for a total of 536,870,912 (229) unique IP addresses. Class C networks make up an eighth of the total available IP addresses. Class C networks have a first bit value of 1, second bit value of 1 and a third bit value of 0 in the first octet. \nNet Host or Node \n195


I'm talkin on the phone with this one dude who I've been goin out with and stuffa nd hes always been sorta cool...no not sorta but 100% cool....well we've been talkin on the ph. and I hadd no idea what to say the first time and the second time it went real well and I need help o0n this one!!

It's so easy to talk to someone, anyone, all you need to do, is ask him, about himself, what he likes, in music, movies, sports the list is endless. \nBefore you chat next time, make up a list, of subjects, and perhaps some notes on each one.\nMaybe you both have the same tastes in T.V. shows. Or ask him if he has seen a movie, or show that you have watched. \nIf you watch American Idol, you can ask him, what he thought about the performers or the judges.\nOnce you start, it will be easy, just be yourself, seems the second call went well, so go with that.


Retired five years ago,was ok until last two years,I can't communiacte with other people,feelong older and older ,do/did something unusal,really need to work and earn a little bit money and killing time.Please advice.

you could try private teaching or tutoring of a skill you know. the student(s) could just come to your house. you could teach a language or some physical skill like carpentry, whatever it is you know enough about. you could teach adults or children in your community. im sure if you advertise you will get some takers. hope you find something soon.

body?  How about urine, does it have germs?  Why? I have heard of people in Asia drinking urine for health. In fact I saw a photo and I also talk to a Cambodian lady who had.  \n\nCan we drink piss?  I don't want to but, I was alway told I should wash every bit of it away if I got some on my hand or something.  What is with this contradiction?  \n\nBy the way, I knew this guy who is a farmer and he said that they fed cow sh*it to the pigs.  Why doesn't it make the pigs sick?  \n\nIf there are any excrement experts out there, I would appreciate your enlightened opinion.

Ok, I'm not one to talk sh** here, but here we go...\nFeces goes through your intestines which have bacteria in them to help break down food. The kind in your intestines, stay in your intestines, and help to maintain your health. NOW- When those bacteria get into any other part of your bod, it's very bad because they release toxins, and other stuff into you that make you quite ill. I mean we naturally have E-coli in our intestines, but it's fatal if you have an E-coli infection. \n\nUrine on the other hand is sterile. You can drink it, but I don't know why on earth you would. Just because its sterile meaning without bacteria and germs, doens't mean that it doesn't still have other toxins and body waste in it. So, uh yuck, don't do it. \n\nAlways, always, always wash your hands after handling body waste. Diseases and other illnesses can still be passed on even if it was only urine...like I said it still has bad stuff in it. \n\nAnd as for the pig thing...I don't know why they weren't sick.

Islamic socities separate men from woman into single sex communal living. Its a fact, that in Islamic countries its extremely common and normal to see men holding hands, walking around with their arms around in each other, kissing and not unusual to see them sitting on each others laps.\n\nThis is largely due to the deprivation strictures of male-female relationships. Men in Islamic countries engage in what the west calls "homosexual" activities at extremely high proportions compared to non-islamic countries. \n\nBUT, Muslims dont consider any of this "homosexual". They have also had success convincing other cultures they are not a homosexually based culture because they occasionally execute a homosexual and have no gay bars.\n\nThe Muslim view is similar to the prison view "if you aint taking it in the 8hole, it doesnt count".\n\nIf youve worked in the armed forces, you know what i am talkin about cause your breifed to expect this. SO, if ISLAM isnt homosexuality, what is?

no it's not a meaningless word but you can make it that way like your statments


Does drinking honey has benefits? If yes What are the benefit?

No, it does not have benefits.  Just as cow's milk is created for baby cows (and they stop drinking it at a certain age), honey is meant for bees to use for energy, not humans.\n\nEven though honey is a more natural substance, it really is no safer than sucrose. All the problems associated with sucrose are also associated with honey. Lowered immune system function that can lead to cancer. Damage to the vascular system leading to heart disease and adult onset diabetes mellitus with gangrenous toes and all -are at the end of the sugar freeway. There is also some discussion about additional nutrients found in honey. However, the amounts are miniscule and really not worth the health risk of large doses of simple sugars.


Is there anyone that knows about any decent jobs, willing to give a person another chance that has felony?


Ok, the trend right now is to be super thin--but personally I think most celebs look BETTER when they aren't stick skinny! Lindsay, Hilary, Ellen Pompeo (Greys Anatomy), Kate Bosworth, Keira, and the skinniest of them all, Nicole Richie, all have joined this "shrinking" crowd, and which one needs to put on weight the most, and which one (in your opinion) looked better before the weight loss?

I think they are all pitiful and nauseating in the highest degree. Here is my idea. Take all the money that is spent per annum in making them the wafer-thin self-obessed wrecks that they are, and give that money to third world countries, who would actually like to eat. \n\nThen, as a brialliant irony, send those skinny celeb idiots off to the third world, where they canstarve themselves for free. \n\nIt is pathetic, it sends out a terrible message to young girls, its unhealthy, and it is so sad that they feel the only way to be beautiful is to over indulgently go to the gym obsessively every day, and stick their fingers down their throat when they eat so much as a peanut. \n\nAs you can see, an issue that bugs the hell out of me.

I was just wondering what kind of housing is given to BCT soldiers at Ft. Wood, MO. Is it the newer community/dorm style, or do we get some type of tin can on its side.\n\nSerious answers only, please.

In Ft. Leonard Wood, Mo. in the older barracks, for the males, they sleep in bays the with anywhere between eight (which is where I stayed) to 16 people.  The newer ones are just open "starship" bays with up to 50 people in them.  \n\nThere is plenty of room, and a good part of the BCT experience.  You wont see more private accommodations till you get to Advanced Individual Training (AIT) and even better after you make it to your first duty station.


What is the difference between episcopal and catholic church?\nIf i get married in the catholic, do i have to take all those courses they do, and baptize again ?\nMy mother says that she chose Episcopal church to baptize me because they were more simple, the priest are allowed to get married (as humans do), they were more flexible with the godfathers, etc

the best explanation i can give is episcopal is described as catholic light. they aren't as strict on their doctrine as the catholics. you don't have to become a catholic to get married in their church but the last time i checked you will have to promise to raise your children catholic. this might of changed since the last time i checked. your best source to get the answer you need is to contact your local catholic church.


Offering a lengthy explanation of why he hates Americans, Moussaoui criticized the United States' support for Israel. He said Muslims have been at war with Christians and Jews for centuries. Israel, he said, is "just a missing star in the American flag."\n\nMoussaoui told jurors that Islam requires Muslims to be the world's superpower as he flipped through a copy of the Koran searching for verses to support his assertions. One he cited requires non-Muslim nations to pay a tribute to Muslim countries.\n\n"We have to be the superpower. You have to be subdued. We have to be above you," Moussaoui said. "Because Americans, you are the superpower, you want to eradicate us."\n\nhttp://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,191583,00.html\n\nFor more in Islam, see\nhttp://princesskimberley.blogspot.com/

I think he is saying what he has been brainwashed to beleive.  Althought, I do know that this is what true islamic faith means.\n\nI am just amazed at this... There are so many people supporting Muslms, but Christians are the worst people to have inhabited the earth...


Like, no homework till ur in grade 10 coz den u got da big exams coming up, but under dat u don't get any homework :D

Homework is an essential tool to re-inforce what you are learning in class.  Some teachers overdo it, as if they are the only teacher you have, but that doesn't negate the need for homework.\n\nHomework also gives you an opportunity to learn and hone study skills which you will need in H.S. and college.\n\nHomework also helps to instill a good work ethic which will serve you well your entire life...provided you take advantage of it.

I'll take any advice anyone has about anything after graduation.  Also, I've decided I don't want to be a reporter or work in the journalism field.  Any suggestions of career fields where I could apply the skills I learned in J-school?  Thanks!

Other careers are wide and open - in theory at least. Time and effort spent in education is never wasted time. It all comes to what you *can* do and what you *want* to do.\n\nAre you good at writing? Are you creative? Can you photograph or use Photoshop? Do you have skills to work in a TV or radio? How about Internet publications?\n\nFor example I can throw these alternatives: You could consider a career of a press officer in a corporation or foundation. If you are creative person, opportunities in the advertising industry are available. Or maybe in the photography field?\n\nYou're a good writer? Many Finnish journalists have also published fictional novels.\n\nOr does the academic world feel interesting? Perhaps you can continue your studies to doctorate level.\n\nBest wishes!


I have been involved with a younger man (32) for the past three years, and we are very much in love.  We have such a strong connection and much in common.  I have waited so long to find someone like him, so why is it so scary.

it's always scary having really deep feelings for someone because it leaves you vulnerable to them. What if they reject you? What if they leave you? What if they don't feel the same way you do? It's all part of love, romance, and life. If you have found someone that you can connect with on such a deep level that you don't have to have a physical relationship, congratulations. you have found what everyone is looking for.


How does current enter an antenna when one end of the antenna is just suspended in air?\nIn order for current to pass through a conductor, potential should be applied on both its ends, contarary to the antenna's case.

the signal applied to the antenna is in relation to groud. the signal spewed out by radio stations travels thru the air. and a very small signal is placed on the antenna in relation to the ground. the receiver circuit takes over from there. if you drive by a radio station you will see their big antenna very isolated from ground. to prevent arching. the signal coming from them is very powerful. \n\n                                  Greg..


and what harm will i do if i delete the tempory internet files?

Aside from being in different directories:\n\nTemp files are files created by programs to be used while the program is running then automatically deleted when the program closes down.\nTemporary internet files are files saved by Internet explorer on the assumption that if you need to access them again, the will show up faster if they are on your local drive.  Both types of files can be deleted safely when not in use.


Is it important to go to church or any other place of worship? Do people only attend thinking that this is what God wanted? Is a person that worships at home instead of a place of worship (such as a church a temple whatever) not as good as one that goes to these places? Does it say in any of the holy books that you have to go to these places?

No, you don't have to go to church.\n\nYes it's good to fellowship but not necessary to go to some building. Especially if you are not fed the Word there. Some churches are starvation because all that is taught is a couple of verses a week. Then 40 minutes of man's word.\n\nWe are the temple of God. \nJoh 14:23  Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.\n\nJoh 4:24  God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth. \n\nHis Word is His Spirit. \nHis Word is His truth.

Lets say you are single and desirable guy, who wants to have kids someday (no telling how many). You meet a woman with kids - how many kids is too many kids for your girlfriend to have? What do you think?

That depends on what you're comfortable with. I would never date someone who had a kid myself. Also what kind of woman is she? Some women take advantage of guys and try to get them to support children that aren't even theirs. I'm not saying she's like that, but some of them are, especially if they're feeling overwhelmed. Also keep in mind if you get married and you go through the teen years with them they'll go through the oh so painful "you're not my daddy" phase. Just think carefully about what you're getting into.


ive seen him popping up in some of my favorite Batman series' lately and would like to know more about his origin and whhere i might find what books this is in.

First Appearance: All-American Comics #61\n\nAlias: Cyrus Gold\n\nPowers: Mystically enhanced corpse with super-human strength, stamina and durability, requiring neither food, liquid, oxygen or rest; capable of infinite resurrections\n\nHis Deal:  During the later part of the 19th Century, Cyrus Gold was killed and left to rot in Slaughter Swamp.  His remains were never found and over the process of half a century the organic muck collected around his corpse and mysteriously one day took on its own life.  With limited memory of his previous existence the swamp monster found his way to a hobo camp after robbing a pair of escaped criminals of their clothes. When asked his name he replied that he did not have one, but that he had been born on a Monday.  One of the hobos remarked he was like the nursery rhyme character and named the monster Solomon Grundy.

And you want to concentrate in studies but can't?

You have to distract yourself...HAVE TO. Or else you'll always think about him, always dream about him, always hope for him. Get out of the house, go out with your girlfriends, take a bubble bath, dance to music...do whatever you can to take him off your mind. \n\nPlace your studies first - they are important - and you'll end up regretting it later if you don't. You have to drown yourself in your studies if you want to forget him. I fell behind in my studies because I always though about this one guy and then my grades SEVERELY suffered because of it. Now looking back on it, it wasn't even worth it. \n\nRead until you're very tired before you go to bed so you won't toss and turn about him. I went through something similar as well, and I'm gradually letting it go piece by piece as I distract myself more and more. You have to keep telling yourself that you have more important things to worry about or else you'll keep on thinking about him.


What is the difference between hard space, white space and soft space when writing a document. Apparently there are two answers for white space. Are there more and if so what? What about the other two?

Essentially, though this is not definitive (for that, see Wikipedia), white space is any kind of space character. A space character indicates that there is a space between characters. For example, the space character (0x20 - the one you get when you press the keyboard) indicates that a distance by placed between one character and the next.\n\nA hard space forces there to be a visible space in a given location. The space (0x20) is not really a hard space for two reasons:\n1. It can fold into a line space at the end of a line; and\n2. Extraneous spaces are often disregarded (as in SGML)\n\nA non-breaking space character (nbsp entity in HTML) will never fold (break) or get disregarded, by definition. Therefore, it is a hard space.\n\nLine spaces can be considered hard spaces because they force a change in the flow of text and cannot be compressed into single characters (or expanded into multiple characters).\n\nAll non-hard spaces are soft spaces.


If an elevator was plummeting to the ground and you were trapped inside,if you jumped as the lift hit the ground would you escape unhurt?

I have a book (Why Girls Can't Throw) and it answers this and many other questions.\n\nYou would die is the short answer but you might as well try!\n\nTerminal velocity is (If I remember rightly) about 90 mph and the most you could hope to jump at is 5 mph thus you wuld still hit at 85 mph.  As anything over about 30 mph is usually fatal, you would be toast.\n\nSorry

My wife is 4th generation spanish  American such as my self I am white and 4th generation german. both out for fathers fought in WW2 what about the kids (no child left behind) we have to feed them living in Texas its hard to find thoso hard to do jobs we need help. there are a lot of Americans that will work hard . how can they prove it when Bush wants Mexicans to have a pass to our jobs . if you cross over to Mexico with no pass port you may in up in prision and hard labor

My father farmed cotton in S. Texas in the 1950's. There wasn't the problems back then with people coming across the Rio Bravo to work. We had a family that came up from San Luis Potosi to chop or pick when needed. I worked right along side of them as a teen. Then in '54 came the big crack down and the BP came in force and using aircraft would dive on workers to get them to jump up and run. My father was a victim of one such incident just being missed by an aircraft.\n\nOne of our workers after being caught was pistol whipped by a BPman because he wanted to get his shoes. He asked several times if he could go and even if a BP would go with him. He told them they were new shoes and started to go get them. Our man was pistol whipped and thrown into the back of a truck. When they got him to Harlingen someone noticed how bad the man had been injured and took him to the hospital where he remained for several days.\n\nThen came the Bracerro Act which allowed men only to cross and work in the fields. It worked fairly well but at a huge expence to the farm owner. \n\nToday herbacides are used and planting is different so much hoeing and chopping are not needed. then machines are now used in much of the harvesting. A few of the crops such as onions, cabbage, and the like are hand picked. Much less hand labor is required today. True in the Rio Grand Valley there is enough laborers to do the work but in some areas there isn't. Because those from across the river will work for less pay the farmer or even the contractor will hire them to save money.\n\nToday you are dealing with a govenrment that is out of control and paranoid about everyone, including Americans. True there are those hell bent on drug trafficing etc over the border and that is causing a lot of the problems. Then also the US govenment thinks everyone is a terrorist and sends their gestapo after everyone.\n\nCanada welcomes the Mexican workers especially in SW Ontario where much farming goes on.\n\nAll this is a total "catch 22" no one wins and no one looses and nothing works as it should.\n\nIs there an easy answer to your question? No, not as long as governments of all countries are corrupt. I am a US citizen but the govenment here is an embarrasment to me.


and animals, beautiful, spirited people--Why don't they cater to tourism like the people of Jamaica, Puerto Rico, Brazil, etc. have done and make their country more prosperous?

They do. Have you ever heard of Cancun,Acapulco,Mazatlan,and Playa del Carmen? But it pays better to be in the USA!

Are all women money-hungry hoes? Or can some fall in love with a guy a job but not much money like me.  Or would I benefit by being Gay!???

Not having much money is a huge disadvantage for a guy. Women like to believe in the notion of pure love, or soul mates, or what not, but in the end they always seem to fall in love with guys who have something going for them strangely enough . . . \n\nHaving said that, money is not everything. Women are not attracted to money per se, it is that money creates an aura around a guy of success, power, character, passion, and various other traits that women find attractive. Having money often implies certain things about the man's character (of course, a few women just go purely for the money, but usually it is that money implies something about the man). But there are other ways of conveying those traits than having money. Confidence in your personality can convey as much "power" as does having lots of money for example. \n\nBut there can be little doubt that having less money is a disadvantage. That isn't to say that no women will be attracted to you because you don't have money, but rather that IF you took yourself exactly as you are, and then added a million dollars in your bank account, suddenly a whole range of women who were previously out of your league would be flocking to you like sheep.\n\nGood luck!\n\nFootnote: you cannot "choose" to be gay. You either are, or are not. So that option isn't an option.


I really love her, but I don't think she know it, how can I give signs to let her know how I feel about her??


When Should you have a baby shower if the mommy-2-be is expecting  twins? Her actual due date is Sept 30, The month of July is out b/c all weekends are already booked.  So should it be the last weekend in June which is really early or the first weekend in August which is a little risky b/c babies could be here?

Ask the mommy-2-be what she thinks would be more comfortable for her.  I threw my sister-in-law a baby shower & she chose the date, which was about a 5 weeks before her due date.  But she was not having any complications.  (By the way, her theme were bears...and they had told her one was a girl for sure...and guess what?  They were both boys.  Though they are faternal twins, they almost looked identical for the first 3 years.)\n\nSo the first weekend of AUGUST would be just fine, if she's ok with it.  Usually, twins don't come too early.  Her's were only about a week early.  But like I said, it all depends on the mommy-2-be!!\n\nHope you have lots of fun!  ;o)\n\nFYI:\nTwin Forum\nhttp://forums.twinstore.com/6/ubb.x?a=frm&s=36960974&f=30660829\n\nTwins Magazine (makes a great gift)\nhttp://www.twinsmagazine.com/\n\nTWINS FUN GAME IDEA:\n\nJuggling Twins!\n\nThis game is fun to play at a shower for those moms having multiples! It's like hot potato.\n\nWHAT YOU NEED: 2 baby dolls, music that can be turned off & on, and a person who controls the music.\n\nHOW TO PLAY: Have guests stand in a big circle. Pass two baby dolls (or however many babies mom's expecting) around as the music plays. Whenever the music stops, the person holding a doll is out of the game. \n\nBest to have the dolls apart from each other so the game moves quickly and people are constantly having to pass a baby. When it comes to the last two people, use just one doll or have 2 winners! \n\nThis game gets pretty crazy as people get eliminated! So fun!\n\nhttp://www.baby-shower.com/d-games/index.html

I drink more than the water I'm supposed to every day, exercise three days a week, try to eat healthy, etc., and I've maintained this for a month now and have lost 20 pounds so far.  I still have more to lose.  Of course, losing weight is like an addiction that you are trying to get out from under.  The body changes and if you don't know what all those changes are then it can get scary.  So, the point of this question is to get people's feedback on what changes they went through.

I instinctively get snottier when I lose weight. My already through the roof confidence becomes insufferable even to myself. This is the reason it has taken me two years to lose my most recent "baby weight" Good for me that I recognize this undesireable behaviour and am actively trying to correct it with this round of weight loss 15lbs and counting....\n\nPhysically, I love the way that everything gets tighter and toned and the feeling of control over what goes into my body. ....and yes weight loss is like an addiction and exercise is the ultimate high!


I am a huge fan of the San Antonio Spurs, but the last few weeks they have lost 3 home games. I don't understand it. They were playing good all season long, and now... What do you think?

Yes, I am a San Antonio Spurs fan as well.\n\nYes, I believe they haven't played very well lately.\n\nI believe it is because Timothy Duncan, of course, has been deteriorating steadily, and Tony Parker is already getting ready for the play-offs (meaning, he's starting to not play so well), so it's all up to Manu Ginobli.\n\nAs a matter of fact, in the last 5 games or so I think that Manu Ginobli has the best POINTS average, though last night Tim Duncan had sudden resurgance in which he scored about 30 points.\n\nI hope they shape up for the POSTSEASON, where they shall destroy all and win their 2nd consecutive NBA CHAMPIONSHIP!

At the same time, I think the first answer forgot to actually read the link.\n\nIslam is in serious need of a reformation, and that is exactly what President Bush is trying to do.  He can't do it by taking on "Islam", but he can get the people to turn against each other, particularly militant against reformist.  In fact, he's doing that right now.  He doesn't want peace in Iraq.  He wants them to stand up and take out the militants!  He wants reform, so Islam can take it's place as an equal with other world religions.\n\nHe respects religious freedom, but does not tolerate terrorism.\n\nI'm looking for a Democrat with some of the same values for my party.

You're on the first day or two of your period? It's been happening to me for several months now, and it's not just really bad cramps.. Sometimes I get so sick I feel like I'm going to vomit. Is there any way I can get this to stop, or will it just get better as time goes on?\nThanks for answering.

Equal volume of hydrochloric acid and potassium chloride are mixed together. The question wants us to find the temperature change, but how do they react?

Since both HCl and KCl are strong elecrolyes, both should remain totally dissassocitated in solution.  I dont think any HCl will react with KCl in this case.\n\nHowever, have you ever heard the rule "Always Add Acid"?\nWhenever you dilute an acid with water, the resulting solution gives off energy (dissolving HCl in water is an exothermic reaction).  This when you dilsute 1 M HCl to .5 M HCl, energy will be released and will cause a temperature change in the solution.\n\na)  The number of moles of HCl used in this experiement is constant. This value will be equal to the number of moles of HCl present in the initial 100 ml of 1 M solution.\n1 M = x moles / .1 L, thus you have .1 moles of HCL.\n\nb)  The heat of the reaction will be the heat given off when the HCl solution is diluted.\n\nc)  Once you know the heat energy given off by the reaction, you can calculate the change in temperatutre if you know the specific heat of the final solution.  I am not sure if you are suppose to estimate the final solution's specific heat as being equal to that of water (4.186 J/g C), but that would be my guess.\nQ = m*c*(delta T)\n\n\nEDIT:\n"davidchingwong13" is correct in his application of the common ion effect.  By dissolving additional Cl- ions in the solution by adding HCl, the equilibrium between solid and aqeuous KCl is disturbed.  However, KCl is a strong electrolyte, it readily dissolves and breaks in to ions in water.  I doubt the addion of so few moles of Cl- ions to an already unsaturated KCl solution willl effect it that much.\n\nHowever....dissolving KCl in water is a endothermic reaction, so if, indeed, the KCl did precipitate out, it would be exothermic and give off additional energy.

How am I suppose to afford any college besides a state university or community college?  My parents make too much money for me to get any financial aide.  The loans I get aren't enough to pay for everything, and my parents wont sign on another loan.  I'm not getting any scholarships.  How can so many people afford to go to private colleges?

Private colleges with large endowments usually give substantial grants to excellent students with great financial need, AND to excellent students from middle-income families with sizable financial need (given the high tuition costs of these colleges).  Few students at private colleges get NO financial assistance.  Students who attend these colleges are also usually quite smart, and often attain scholarships from various other sources. \n\nIt sounds like you are a student "in the middle," with a very high parental income, and no academic scholarships.  Students like you do indeed usually go to state schools.  But don't despair.  There are some excellent state universities, eight of which have earned reputations as "public ivies." \n\nHere's a list of "Public Ivies."\n\nThe original eight, from Moll (1985):\nCollege of William and Mary \nMiami University (in Ohio)\nUniversity of California (the entire state system)\nUniversity of Michigan \nUniversity of North Carolina at Chapel Hill \nUniversity of Texas at Austin \nUniversity of Vermont \nUniversity of Virginia \n\nFrom Greene's Guides (2001), additional potential "public ivy" schools:\n\nBinghamton University \nIndiana University Bloomington \nMichigan State University \nThe Ohio State University \nThe Pennsylvania State University \nRutgers University \nUniversity of Arizona \nUniversity of Colorado at Boulder \nUniversity of Connecticut \nUniversity of Delaware \nUniversity of Florida \nUniversity of Georgia \nUniversity of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign \nUniversity of Iowa \nUniversity of Maryland, College Park \nUniversity of Minnesota \nUniversity of Washington \nUniversity of Wisconsin


Hemingway's style of writing is that there's always 1/8 of the story showing, the rest is underneath.  So what truths lie beneath the surface of the story in "In Another Country"?

The title of the story is interesting. At first glance, "In Another Country," refers to the fact that the American narrator is indeed in a foreign land--Italy. Yet he is also a visitor to another realm--the "country" of the sick and injured. And maybe World War I is the ultimate other country--a setting that defines nations or destroys them and has the potential to erase people, ideology, and the future. Does the doctor featured in the story truly believe that his patients will recover from their injuries or is he merely accustomed to dispensing hope in much the same way he might dole out aspirin? The likelihood that the machines will heal the soldiers is debatable. Do these gadgets prefigure modern technology or are they another reminder of how dependent upon machines both war and medicine really are?

I personally think it will never happen no matter what happens. Tell me wh or why not please!

How are we defining equality? Equal opportunity? Equal rights? Equal benefits?  Some of these things are plausible, others less so. \n\nI'm inclined to say that even if equality will never happen in practice (and in fact, I'm convinced that we don't want most kinds of equality to happen in practice! That would make for a very boring world), but it's a good goal to work towards.

This made him (now brace yourself for this one! ..) \n\nA super calloused fragile mystic hexed by halitosis. \n\nby the way.. dont put that in any kind of research paper or anything.. although the teacher may laugh.. i dont see an A for it :)

I'm thinking that you have to read an article or chapter and answer these questions based on it. No, you're probably not going to get someone to do your work for you.

Okay... that's enough!! I'm too tired to try to decipher the questions, let alone give an answer to something that doesn't make any sense.

I take Alieve, Tylenol, rub on Bengay, Biofreeze, nothing helps.  Wakes me up at night the pain is so bad.  Doctor says I do not have arthritis.  What do I have then?

sounds like pains that are associated with carpal tunnel syndrome--mine is in my thumb and pointer finger and wraps around the wrist, crosses to the elbow and up my arm into my shoulder--i have been to chiropractors, orthopedists, and neurologists.  mine flares up every few weeks.  if it is not bad enough for surgery the best you can do is take advil/ibuprophen. It works better for me than alieve.  good luck!


He loves them both but denies his love for his baby moms.

His baby's mom will forever be in his life-or at least she should for their child. However, high school sweethearts come with some sentimental value as well. My best advice is for him to follow his heart. He owes himself that much. Only he can truly know the answer to this.


AT HER MOTHERS FUNERAL, A WOMAN MET THIS GUY AND FELL INSTANTLY IN LOVE. BUT SHE NEVER GOT HIS NAME,NUMBER,OR KNEW ANYTHING ABOUT HIM. A FEW DAYS LATER, THE WOMAN KILLED HER SISTER. NOW THE TEST. WHY DID SHE KILL THE SISTER? IF YOU ANSWER CORECTLY THENM YOU THINK LIKE A PSYCHOPATH. ANSWER ON MONDAY

She killed her sister because she didn't know who the man was and was hoping that he would come to her funeral.  He wasn't the funeral director because she could have just gone to the funeral parlor and talked to him without killing him.  She couldn't kill a stranger because odds are he wouldn't show up, she needed to kill someone related to her mother for better odds that the guy would come back.
