Aircratf carrier is a ship, so it's supposed to be Navy. But there are lots of aircraft in that carrier, so isn't it supposed to be Airforce? Or the entire aircraft carrier belongs to USAF?

The aircraft carrier belongs to the Navy it is usually comprised of a good amount of Navy, however I have also seem Marines on there.  The pilots belong to a squadron, which is part of the aircraft carrier.  They are either Navy or Marine Corp pilots depending on what squadron they are on.  The fighter pilot first goes to college and gets a degree.  They join the navy and go to OCS, then to flight school if that is the path the have selected.  Not all will fly the fast jets.  Some fly transport aircraft and helicopters.  You can also sometimes find Army Special Forces on board but this is just temporary.


what the world IS spamming anyway.and if it's bad, then I'm sorry.

It is technically against the rules, but I don't think it's a bad thing. Just try to do it in a more subtle way. Answer one of their questions and at the end say that you'd like to chat.


The law allows your wife to have abortion even if you are against it. She doesn't even have to get your permission.\nHowever, if you accidentally impregnate a woman on a one-night stand, she can sue you for child support. It doesn't matter if you don't want the child.\nWhy the anti-male feminazi doublr standard ?

Wow. The law even allows your wife to get a divorce if you don't want to. Isn't it crazy how women have rights these days?\n\nHonestly, though, don't you think it would be terrible to force a woman to have your child?


I know it's part of the Kleihouer Test and is used to determined Fetal hydrops, but what is the actual procedure for performing it?

E-rosette test\nn.\nA test to identify T cells by mixing purified human blood lymphocytes with serum and sheep red blood cells; rosettes of red blood cells form around human T cells on incubation.

My rent check for this month bounced due to an unexpected pay cut, but I haven't heard anything from the apt. complex. Should I just wait for them or go in and talk to them about it?

I would say talk to them and make them aware of the situation.  Tell them you are working on fixing the problem.  This could help you avoid some trouble down the road.


I also wanted a guys opion, i am 19 weeks pregnant and married but my husband seems like he does'nt want to have sex a whole lot since i've been pregnant, i was just wondering what guys would be worried about, and if this makes guys not want to have sex, he's not very open, so i figured i would get a guys point of view, thanks.

depends on the guy. Some guys find a woman at her sexist when she is carrying his child. But then some guys are wierded out by it or feel that they may harm the baby if they have sex with you. You need to sit down with your man and see what he is feeling. May be taking him to your next doctor visit might help as well.Then he could ask the doc questions and stuff.


Okay, i have a friend. He's one of my best friends, and I don't have feelings for him at all. He's gone out with a few girls (all of whom I known), and they've all been horrible for him. He always tells me how much he appreciates me, and how he's "married" me. He is one of those guys who can get any girl he want's, and when I told him that, he said "No, I couldn't get you." I've been friends with him for almost 2 years, do you think he likes me? Why or why not.

Aaaaw, how cute. Anyways, i think he likes you. Why? because that description surely screams "FLIRTING!!!!!!" ;)

Does anyone know which e-card website is good and free now

Halllmark.com is reputable and has a large number of free e-cards.


I have an old computer with no operating system and had my eyes on slax. But i can't boot cd's, so i have to work with floppies.

go in the bios and change it  so that your cd drive is the first to be reconized. Shutdown and follow procedure for installing your o.s.  Make sure you are using the right kind of cd.


Like owner financing: rent to own, lease purchase ect.

I almost did, but found out I would be paying almost twice a much for house.  You can get non-documentation loan, but they are tricky too.  Check with several real estate agents or an attorney.


They updated the U.S. constitution a few years back to prevent Congress from giving themselves a raise while they were in session.  I can't imagine them touching this document stored in the National Archives.  However, it seems like there ought to be a master copy somewhere.

They've cloned John Handcock, he's frozen and he's been placed in a bunker near Omaha, NE. They thaw him out everytime there's an anmendment or a centennial celebration.


O.K you told me that jesus is god , but in another question you told some one elese that he is the son of god . Thats like being really hipacritical  peoples

No-body can agree on this one!  One says one thing, one says another and someone else says something entirely different!  Yet they expect all of us to believe it!


Feel silly, but weird things are going on in my home. I was told I am the 8th person to reside in that home within the past 10 years. I tried looking through the Sun-Times etc. but No luck. Just wondering if there was a suicide or murder need help or a website. THANKS

Humph.. No need to feel silly. 8th person in 10 years is a really high turnover rate. Add weird things going on in the house, and, well I'd be freaked.. \n\nHave you contacted these people ?\nhttp://members.tripod.com/GhostHuntersSociety/Home.htm


all you ever see in the news is crime and hatred. so im just wondering.

YES>>> Read you News Paper, Turn on your News, and there is nothing we can do about it..We have to love our kids and make sure they know right from wrong. Simple right.....


I mean, there's alot of girls unfortunatly does that to run away from family problems even if they don't love the guy but they think he's nice & he's going to treat them better than their families or as they call "getting a life"!! what do u think?

I think they'll add to the divorce statistics. Running away from the problem never works. And getting married to do so only adds new ones.


I am interested in studies in resampling,statistics, probability in the area of financial markets.


Does our life has any meaning???  Please be positive in your replies....

How can we all be positive? I thought u wanted thoughtful replies, that would make u ponder the answers u recieved. Isn't that the point of this site? Oh well. Here's my reply. Yes, we are all God's creation, and sex by our parents is how God wanted us to enter the world. We are not a creation of sexual fulfillment, if we were, everytime they had unprotected sex, they'd get pregnant. Besides, not everyone who gets pregnant got sexually fulfilled during the act of conception. Does life have meaning? Yes,I think so, otherwise, we wouldn't be here. I believe everyone has a purpose decreed by God, and once u've satisfied the Lord's purpose on Earth, it's ur time to go on to Heaven.


Seeing as Bulimia Nervosa is nearly identical to Compulsive Over-Eating/Binge Eating disorder (minus the purging) which is treated by Gastric Bypass surgery... Why wouldn't they consider this for Bulimic patients? If you stop the binge eating, you stop the purging. I know it sounds far-fetched, but Bulimia has equal if not worse effects on health than that of a morbidly obese person.

I just wanted to say that my father had gastric bypass last april and I will be having it soon too.  my dad has done great and has lost alot of weight but we just recently found out that now he is bulemic and we are working thru it.  its got alot to do with physcological reasons and everyone reacts different to the surgery.  In his case one eating disorder resolved has turned into another eating disorder.


can someone give me a website that i could find this on

try http://www.bls.gov/ or http://salary.com/


I am connected but cant use the VPN connection.\nI have tried to uninstall the drivers.\nLan -does not has a ip Assignhed to it.

The problem is that on DSL, you do not get a public IP address on your computer. Your router gets one and then your it gives your computer a private IP address. This is called NAT (Network Address Translation). \n\nIn order to use a VPN on a DSL connection, you need to either route a public IP to your computer, which will probably require you to purchase one from your ISP and will require them to help you set it up, or you will need to set up some port forwarding in the router to forward the ports that the VPN program communicates on.\n\nRight now, when you connect to a remote computer, it sees that traffic as coming from the IP address of your router, since your computer IP is private. When it tries to send information back, the router says "Hey! I don't know what this is!" and drops the packets. Port forwarding tells the packets which local IP address they should go to and having a public IP on your computer makes that step unnecessary.\n\nYou will definitely need to call your ISP on this, but I hope my explaination helps to clarify.


They always stink it up and make for some real boring football. Anyone think it's time for new blood on Turkey Day?

It's a tradition that goes back to the earliest days of the NFL.  It's very fashionable these days to wipe out traditions, but I think this one should stay.  Incidentally, it's fun to say that they stink every year, but it's not true.  They are 5-5 in the last 10 Thanksgiving Day games.


What do you know about Shia?\nI bet most of your informations are false!

The term Shi'a is Arabic for 'group' or 'faction'. It is applied to those who believe that, after the death of the Prophet, the Imamate (the political and religious leadership of the Muslim community) should have gone to 'Ali - the cousin and son-in-law of the prophet - and his descendants as a divine right. The three caliphs who preceded 'Ali - Abu Bakr, 'Umar, and 'Uthman - were not intended by Muhammad to be his immediate successors.\n \nThe Imam is regarded by Shi'ites not merely as a political leader but as a metaphysical being, one who is without sin, whose doctrinal pronouncements are infallible and who bestows true knowledge on humanity. The Imams are referred to within the Shi'ite tradition as masum - free from error or sin - and are regarded by the majority of Shi'as as twelve in number. The last Imam, the Mahdi, is believed not to have died but to be in hiding and will appear at the end of time in order to bring about the victory of the Shi'a faith. \n\nThe five Shia principles of religion (Usul ad Din) are: belief in divide unity (Tawhid); prophecy (Nubuwwah); resurrection (Maad); divine justice (Mdl); and the belief in the Imams as successors of the Prophet (Imamah).

Iran was a U.S. ally until the Islamic Revolution in 1979.  When they deposed the Shah of Iran and his wife from power we gave them sancuary in the U.S.  As a result students stormed the U.S. Embassy and held the entire staff 40 some people hostage for 444 days before releasing them.  We supported Saddam's Iraq in the war between Iran and Iraq that lasted for 7 years, however we did sell some arms to Iran during the Reagan Presidency thus causing the Iran -Contra Scandal.  The Iranian people have what is close to an Islamic state and are currently thumbing their nose at the worlds nations questions about their Nuclear Program. They are saying if the Nations insist on Arms Inspectors to be allowed access to what they are doing, then they will not allow them in and go full force into the project.  Their current President is also sponsoring a conference to discuss the myth that we call the Holocust.\n\n1) From the above stated I believe that the Iranian people have what they are calling a democracy, in which the people have very little say.\n\n2) From the above stated I believe that the Iranian government is led by those that are more than a few bricks shy of a full load.


id really like to email this person even write to a home address, the phone number is unlisted and im desperate

if they are an old classmate, try www.myspace.com


we are  ordinary people just like any person

Well, you asked "why you don't like Islam" and then you added, you are ordinary people....\n\nI don't like Islam...but definitely I love Muslims.  cuz if I don't like Islam, that doesn't mean I hate Muslims!!! \n\nIslam is wrong simply, plaigarize many from bible, rediculate other religions, encourage hatred, violence and impose rules over the head and blood of others. put its rules, holiness more important than bloodshed.  it destruct our countries, divided people.... Islam full of mistakes and cruel punishments.  do you agree of whipping, cutting and these inhuman actions.  unfair, and discirminations against women.  \n\n\nThis is my opinion on Islam, please Muslims I don't mean to offend you


Question for girls... how would u rate my pictures here www.mspace.com/allgta  ...like a 1/10?? please help me here

Women go for physical appearance more than personality. This is genetics at work. Women will look for strength in a male (no matter how stupid they are) because strength equals survival of the offspring.\n\nWomen use this selection method subconciously. Women who are beyond the child producing stage will be more attracted to personality than physical appearance however.\n\nSorry ladies, you'll marry some real dumb men and you will never know why.


Or 6,000 years, if we can assume that the creation account in Genesis was first revealed to Adam (Some think it was given later to Moses). There are claimed to be at least forty different writers. Is there enough ancient manuscript evidence to compare and does archaeology confirm the historical accuracy of the Bible?

One passage deserves consideration. Second Peter 1:21 [KJV/NIV] states that the Old Testament writers spoke "as they were moved by the Holy Ghost." In its context this verse suggests the uniqueness of Scriptures when compared to humanly inspired statements. The men who wrote the Scriptures were moved, or carried along, by the Holy Ghost. The uniform witness of the Scriptures themselves is clear: God spoke the concept (revelation) to the mind of the writer; the Holy Spirit guided the transmission (inspiration) of that concept into the objective form of words; and, through the continual guidance of the Holy Spirit (illumination), we receive the original revelation as we read the Scriptures.\nFirst, the science of textual criticism has assured us, by the estimates of competent scholars, that our present texts (Greek and Hebrew) are without errors of significance. The text we work with is therefore trustworthy and deserving of the most careful and detailed study.Second, to reject the doctrine of inerrancy transfers the question of truth from the objective into the realm of the subjective. Who is to decide what part of the Scripture is true and what part of it is false? What part is trustworthy and what part is untrustworthy? The Scriptures' claim to divine authority is lost when we subject them to the rationalistic, subjective appraisals of men.

i wear sluty cloths out in public to look really really sexy for him. but when a guy hollers or honks or anything he goes off and starts stuff with the other person and sometimes he gets mad at me

If he is responding that way, then maybe he doesn't really want you to dress like that for him - maybe you only think he wants it.


A year ago, I was hospitalized for several days in intensive care with a blood sugar level of 699. Prior to that, my doctor had been monitoring my levels because of family history, but it came on like lightning. I survived, and have been successfully maintaining my Type 2 diabetes since. My question: With that high level, how close was I to death? I need to know to pass this dire information on to my children and others who may be likely candidates. Please be frank, for my sake and theirs.

I am not a nurse or doctor,however,I have been diabetic (type 1) for 36 years. A normal blood sugar reading is between 80 and 120, At 190 sugar spills into your urine. That's when you become thirsty, beyond belief, and start to dehydrate. You will know every washroom in the city because of constant urination. I have been hospilized w/ a reading of about 1200. That was with taking insulin. I had dental work done, and the infection got the best of me. Your reading shows you that your sugar is high, but it is the way the sugar affects your organs that can be fatal. When I had my episode, my potassium levels were screaming high,my kidneys had shut down,I lost the vision in one eye from such a low blood pressure. I was in a coma for a day before anyone found me. I remained so for an additional five days. During that time I suffered a heart attack. Diabetes can be hard to control, even with insulin. Sometimes it becomes more complicated because of the insulin. If you can manage it without..DO IT! Get on a diet recommended by a dietition, get yourself a glucometer to check your sugar at home frequently. Exercise. Show your family the way to deal with it should they eventually have it. Your circulation is compromised, affecting your legs and feet, eyes, and kidneys, skin. High sugar means you will have a harder time fighting infections. Your teeth and gums will need extra care-and you are the only one that can do it. Don't become blind or on dialysis because you can't pass up a candy bar or a chunk of cake. your family needs you, and when you look at their smiling faces, you'll be grateful to be with them. I know I am telling you scary things. I wish someone had really explained to me HOW these things could come to pass. It's because it affects the smallest,tiniest blood vessels in your body. You don't always "just die" from diabetes. You could live a long time with what it can do to you. Good luck to you. I would be so proud of you if you could turn this thing around to become incredibley healthy. This would be the time to do that. If you see that your sugar is rising,for no apparent reason, such as large meal,eating fruit,etc.,call your doctor. It may be from a sinus infection, earache,cut that won't heal. The infection raises your sugar, your sugar makes it difficult to get rid of the infection. And so it goes..round and round. Don't wait for a huge spike in your numbers.


if u did, did u get a virus or something like that?

Though not known particularly for virus spreading, installing those "free" IM smileys are one of the #1 ways of infecting your computer with spyware and adware.  These unwanted programs can affect your computer in adverse ways, but because they do not attempt to replicate themselves and are not DESIGNED to be harmful, they are not considered to be viruses.


You all need to see the film "The Passion of the Christ"

A true Christian...knows God's word,that Jesus Christ is our Savior,and tries to live their life according to the bible...but we are all human and all fail at times..thats when we turn to God and ask for forgivness...get back up and follow Christ's path...Also we love one another as Christ has loved us!!!


on the points scale it just says to be the first to find out

Mexico is starting to hate us. Since Bush, we lost China as a good friend. All of the Arab countries hate us. North Korea hates us. Even if we don't agree with other countries, should we just suck it up, and try to have good relations anyway? I mean, what would happen if 90 percent of the world hated us? >NUKE<

If making friends means compromising our ethics, I don't think we need friends like that.  The countries you mention have horrible human rights policies.  Sometimes you just have to stick to your principals and not worry about your popularity.  Those are the ones that ultimately get respect.  The suck ups get short-term benefits but lose any hope of long term respect.  Look closely and the same thing holds true for people.  Notice that the people that are all concerned about popularity tend to be mostly fluff and little substance.


I have a former friend that is going around saying false things about me to everyone I know trying to get them to not be friends with me. Is there anything that I can do legally about that because shes starting to cross the line.

Hire a lawyer, the legal terms are (1) Slander (2) defamation of character. and it sounds like there is malous behaviour there too. these are all civil so the courts will have to help you, the police wont unless there is a restraining order on this person.


I of course have my own opinions on this matter, but I'm curious what the social response will be.\n\nPlease, since this forum helps maintain a certain anonymity, answer honestly... not how you think your friends would 'expect' you to answer or with what you think is 'cool'...

It's a sign of self respect for both you and the person that you choose to be with for the rest of your life. It is so much more special when you save it for the special someone that takes your hand in marriage. \n\nIt's not old fashioned thing, I think really it is common sense and remaining abstenent until the "right one" comes a long really says a lot for your character. :)Believe me, it is well worth it to wait.


Are we increasing the volume of oil we take from the earth each year? And has any one an estimate on when it may run out?

We will never run out of oil, economics ensures that is the case. As oil becomes harder to get prices will increase, as the price increases people will use less oil. As a result there will always be oil in the ground, there will just be so few people using it that it won’t be worth pumping out.\n\nNobody with any knowledge of the subject has ever suggested that oil will ever run out. That is one point that all sides agree on. The only question is  how much more expensive it will get and how fast.

1.  What scripture verse was translated incorrectly (What did the incorrect verse say)\n\n2.  and what is the correct translation?\n\nThe first person to answer both questions will get 10 points.

1. What scripture verse was translated incorrectly (What did the incorrect verse say)\n\nHERE IS THE WHOLE STORY, FOR THOSE WHO MAY NOT KNOW:::\n\n          Exodus 34:28-35  28 And he was there with the \n          Etrnl forty days and forty nights; he did \n          neither eat bread, nor drink water. And he wrote \n          upon the tables the words of the covenant, the \n          ten commandments. 29  And it came to pass, when \n          Moses came down from mount Sinai with the two \n          tables of testimony in Moses' hand, when he came \n          down from the mount, that Moses wist not that \n          the skin of his face shone while he talked with  \n          him.  כי קרן עור פניו בדברו אתו׃\n          30  And when Aaron and all the children of \n          Israel saw Moses, behold, the skin of his face \n          shone; and they were afraid to come nigh him. \n          31  And Moses called unto them; and Aaron and \n          all the rulers of the congregation returned unto \n          him: and Moses talked with them. 32  And \n          afterward all the children of Israel came nigh: \n          and he gave them in commandment all that the \n          Etrnl had spoken with him in mount Sinai. 33  \n          And till Moses had done speaking with them, he \n          put a vail on his face. 34  But when Moses went \n          in before the Etrnl to speak with him, he took \n          the vail off, until he came out. And he came \n          out, and spake unto the children of Israel that \n          which he was commanded. 35  And the children of \n          Israel saw the face of Moses, that the skin of \n          Moses' face shone: and Moses put the vail upon \n          his face again, until he went in to speak with\n          him. \n\nThe verse incorrectly translated is, of course, Exodus 34:29 above, and i have supplied the Hebrew. The word mistranslated is the word, 'KEREN,' meaning 'beam,' like a beam of light. Unfortunately, the word also means horn, as in a 'horn of plenty.'\n\n2. and what is the correct translation?\n\nMay own translation:::\n\nExo 34:29 ויהי ברדת משׁה מהר סיני ושׁני לחת העדת ביד־משׁה ברדתו מן־ההר ומשׁה לא־ידע כי קרן עור פניו בדברו אתו׃\n\nAnd when Moses came down from the Mountain of Sinai, with the two tablets of the testimony in the hand of Moses, when he came down from the Mountain, and Moses did not know that beams of light (keren or) shone from his face when he spoke with Him.\n\nAdditional information:: When i was a kid, i actually had Christians come up to me, asking me where my horns were? Their ministers and their families had taught them that the Jews actually had horns, based on the New Testament quotation, when Jesus calls The Jews children of Satan!!!!

I read a couple weeks ago that Fat Wreck and Epitaph quietly joined the RIAA in the middle of last year.  Epitaph has essentially been a mini-major for a while now, but Fat Wreck was a surprise.  I don't wholly understand why a decidedly independent label would want cede its independent status and join a group that is not only out-of-touch with their consumers but flatout bullies them in the name of perceived piracy.  Can someone please post some details about this trend and any statements the labels may have made about the change?\n\nThanks!

Well, this question has been asked a few times and someone actually got an answer:\n\nDate: Thu, 03 Aug 2000 14:14:23 -0700\nFrom: Fat Wreck Chords mailbag@fatwreck.com\nTo: Adam Fogler afogler@---.---.edu\nSubject: Re: Fat Wreck Chords a member of the RIAA? Say it ain't so!\n\n\nAdam,\nWe our not part of the RIAA. We are a label that uses RED (though not exclusively) as a distributor, hence maybe that is why our name appears on the list. Still we've never signed anything with the RIAA. That being said, FAT WRECK CHORDS does believe in copyright and is against piracy.


Our last insurance ended 12/14/05.\nBoth owners do not take a paycheck.\nWife is not listed as an owner & would like to have more children.\nWife is currently not pregnant.\nAll employees work under 25 hours/ week.\nDon't have a lot of money for insurance so would like to keep it as cheap as possible as long as it has prescription coverage for a child.\n\nNEED ADVICE ASAP!  Thanks!

You need to find a good agent to recommend the best carrier but in order of least expensive to most expensive\n\nHMO, POS, Direct Access, PPO\nYou may be able to get by with the HMO with a hospital copay rider and prescription card. It wont be the absolute cheapest but good coverage with low risk exposure. I'm not sure where you are from so its hard to say what company is best in your area.


ive decided that i do want to live as a girl and one day hopefully become one one day. the qustion is where do i start?????????????

My advice would be to really take a considerable amount of time to think this decision over and talk about it with with your family and friends, as well as mental health care professionals. Because once you convert to the opposite sex there's no coming back and the implications will obviously be huge. (I'm assuming, of course, that you have surgery and/or hormone therapy in mind.) If you're serious about a sex change operation and an entire lifestyle change, I would recommend making an appointment with your regular physician and asking for a starting point. Your doctor will probably refer you to a psychiatrist who'll need to evaluate you; I'm pretty sure it's required by law in most places. Good luck!


my friend asked me to go on it and i m really confused as to what it actually is

I think it is the program for introducing the basics of Christianity to those interested. \n\nThe Alpha Course originated in the United Kingdom at Holy Trinity Brompton Church — an Anglican church in London — through curates Nicky Gumbel and Sandy Millar. The earliest versions go as far back as 1977. Gumbel began teaching the current version in 1990. He acknowledges that it is always open to revision.The Alpha Course is an array of videos, audiocassettes, books, booklets, testimonials and leader’s videos and guidebooks.\n\nIf you want to join it, here are some tips,\n\n1 Aim to attend an Alpha conference\nNicky Gumbel has said ‘Running Alpha without attending a conference, is like driving a car without taking any lessons.’ \n\nChurches that have not attended a conference often make the mistakes listed below. If you have not yet attended a conference we would strongly encourage you to come to one of the conferences listed in Conferences. We have found that those churches whose course leaders have attended a conference have experienced a far higher degree of success with their courses.\n\n2 Think about your team carefully\nIf you get the right people leading and helping on the course you will often get three times more people actually attending the course. The right leaders and helpers are those satisfying this simple test: ‘If I had a friend who was not a Christian, would I be happy to put my friend in that person’s group?’ Into that test is rolled a number of other factors: are they confident, positive, outgoing people who naturally relate to those outside the church?\n\n3 Stay in training\nTraining the team is absolutely essential. Every member should attend the team training sessions before each course. This helps to refresh their memories and to build unity in your team. We also recommend the team reads the books Searching Issues and Telling Others. \n\n4 Follow the recipe\nAlpha is tried and tested. It has been running for more than 20 years. Every ingredient is there for a very important reason. Those churches that leave out an ingredient such as the meal or some other aspect of the course diminish the impact of the course.\n\n5 Don't forget the weekend away\nA day with talks on the person and work of the Holy Spirit works very well. A weekend works far far better. Churches that have cut this out have often been disappointed with the outcome of their course. If you need help with the weekend or day away, contact your Alpha adviser who can give advice or even arrange for a team to come and help you.\n\n6 Plan the talks\nThe ideal is a live speaker doing the talks well. It is very hard to sustain a course where the talks have been done badly. The videos provide a safety net and are often the best solution, especially with smaller groups.\n\n7 Keep Alpha rolling\nAlpha is not a quick-fix solution to church growth. It is a long-term strategy which, when run well over an extended period, leads to a constant stream of new people. It should be run as a rolling programme three times a year. This is important to keep the momentum going.


The lender says I have to stay with the original appraisal,even though a current appraisal would verify over 50% equity.

Contact your state Banking Department.  They will have information on your state's lending practices.  If your mortgage has such a restriction, it will be worth your time to refinance and get a lower rate and no mortgage insurance.  Good luck!


a friend sent e-mails 2 my b/f that had cussing in them, and my mom found out and i got into trouble cuz of it!!

I suppose that your friend knows that you got in trouble?\nThen your friend made two mistakes.\nIf they were a true friend, they would not let you take the blame. Therefore, if they fail to come forward and take the blame away from you, it is safe to say that they were not your "friend" in the first place and you would be well within your right to set the record straight.


I like you, idk why, I'm just being nice. :-)


Can someone give me 10 "fun" facts about Israel.

Wow no wonder no one can get rid of Israel. :)


Does Valentine's Day just about romance (boyfriend, girlfriend, husband, wife...) or is it about all kinds of love like friends and family? can you give a valentine's day present to friends and your parents showing a different kind of love and not romance?

Yeah, Valentine's about all kinds of love. You can give a present to anyone.


dating 4 years, he said no marrage because his X cheated on him. But he loves me and wants to grow old together, not sure what to do, I would like to get married but I'm not sure now.

You need to decide what your beliefs and boundaries are.  If you don't mind living with someone for the rest of your life without a legal marriage, then do it, if not, then give him an option, marriage or you are gone. Most states have the policy of common law marriage anyway, after 5 years (varies per state) of living together you are considered legally married anyway.


[3.28] Let not the believers take the unbelievers for friends rather than believers; and whoever does this, he shall have nothing of (the guardianship of) Allah, but you should guard yourselves against them, guarding carefully; and Allah makes you cautious of (retribution from) Himself; and to Allah is the eventual coming.

Better neighbors than Christians...\n\nChristians will try to ban you from watching certain tv shows, stop you from reading some books, prevent you from buying some albums, and from having control over your own body.


I have Windows XP and have had difficulty with my old Pinnacle software conversion in that it often does not synchronize the sound with the picture.

You need to import the video then write the DVDs.  Having an interface like Dazzle gives you the ability to import video,  Having something like Nero allows you to handle the rest.


He was a childhood friend of my father's family.  I always wondered what became of him.

I don't know what became of him, either.  However, he has been immortalized, such as it is, through baseball memorabilia.

I bought a new hard drive, 250 gb from seagate, and I want to copy all of my info from my old 20 gb hard drive so I do not have to manually reload all the software, which over time, I doubt I even have half of the discs anymore.  When all is said and done, I want the new 250gb to be my master, adn my old 20gb to be an extra drive not even installed, and my old slave, a 200 gb seagate to remain my slave drive, as it is right now.  I already tried to use the disc wizard by seagate that came with the hard drive, but it gave me an error message upon startup when I tried to use the new drive as my boot drive.  It was missing some dll extension or something.  Also, since I tried to do this with my new one as my slave when I was trying to copy from old to new, it assigned it the d drive, and my old slave which I am gonna keep is already d drive, but was disconnected because It said to connect my new boot as my slave so I can copy my old boot to it.  I am thouroughly confused.  HELP!

I have used Partition Magic with great success.  Keep your 20Gb drive as primary master, and install your new 250Gb drive as a slave or on the secondary IDE channel.  Keep in mind, whatever software you use will not be doing merely a copy, but will also write to the Boot Master Record on the 250 Gb drive to designate it as a bootable drive.  Once your software finishes, shut down, and swap the two drives.  Surprising that the Seagate s/w failed to help you.


or what are some distinctive doctrines or any well known members.....

The Catholic Church is a Church of sinners and much suffering. It is also a Church of saints and scholars. The story of the Catholic Church is a divine and human story. The Church is divine in its Founder, Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is the only founder of a religion who claimed to be God, and proved that claim by rising from the dead. The Catholic Church is also human - afflicted with all the frailties of human nature - the sin and suffering, but also the saintliness and scholarship. When the Church was failing God, God raised up prophets or reformers. A reformer is one who changes people's hearts, not revealed doctrine. There have been thousands of great reformers in the Catholic Church, like St. Francis of A$$isi, St. Clare, St. Benedict, St. Teresa of Avila, etc. The Catholic Church and the Bible have not, in 2000 years, changed any of the many truths revealed by God; among these truths: \n\na) that Holy Communion is really and truly the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ, \nb) devotion to Mary, \nc) confession, \nd) praying for the dead (Purgatory), \ne) the Pope is the visible head of the Church on earth. (Christ of course, is the invisible head of the Church.)\n\nThe following is a brief chronological listing of some of the significant events in Church history from its beginning:\n\nc. 32 Jesus Christ promised to found His Church. "... you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My church..." Matthew 16:18\n \nc. 33 Jesus, the Good Shepherd, fulfills His promise to Peter by commissioning him to "Feed My lambs... Tend My sheep... Feed My sheep." John 21:15-18\n \nc. 33 Pentecost - The Holy Spirit came upon Mary, the Apostles and about 120 Disciples. Three thousand came into the Church that day. Jesus' followers took Him seriously. They preached the Gospel.\n \nc. 34 Judaizers begin teaching that one must become a Jew before they can become a Christian. The Council of Jerusalem answered the Judaizers in c. 50 (Acts 15).\n \nc. 45 The Didache, an important record about the beliefs, practices and rule of early Christians, was in existence. We have it today.\n \nc. 67 St. Peter and St. Paul were martyred (killed for their faith).\n \n70 The temple in Jerusalem was destroyed by the Romans.\n \nc. 50-313 Emperors Nero, Domitian, Decius and Dioletian persecuted the Church.\n\nIn Rome, the Church had to meet in secret to worship, receive instruction, and receive the Sacraments.\n \n96 Clement of Rome settles a dispute in the Corinthian church by exercising his papal authority as successor of Peter. St. John is still alive.\n \n108 St. Ignatius of Antioch, on his way to be martyred in Rome, was the first to call the Church "Catholic".\n\n370-405 The Catholic Church decided what books were inspired by God, and put them into one book, "The Bible". The list of the 73 inspired books, as we have them today in the Catholic Bible, was first compiled by St. Athanasius (c.297-373). This list was confirmed by the Council of Hippo (393), Council of Carthage (397) both in North Africa (St. Augustine was active in both councils), Pope Innocent I (405), and the Council of Trent (1545-63). The Bible was preserved by the monks, who copied it over and over again in handwriting for the next 1000 years until the printing press was invented in 1450.\n\n1450 Printing was invented by Johann Gutenberg, and the first book to be printed was the Catholic Bible. It is called "the Mazarin Bible" which was printed in 1452 in Mayence, Germany, at the request of Cardinal Mazarin.


This is for a project, I really need to know.

Is a long line with buyes, every 100 yards or so, a small line with a hook and bait is atached.\nUsually is several miles long.\nThe boats leave it for a day and return to check what is been hooked. Usualy marlins and sharks, but can be anything.\nIt is not a selective method for fishing, and is prohibited in many countries.


I'm referring, of course, to the British version of "The Office" as compared to the American version.

I think they're both equally dense.  Brent, though, seems to be a little more well-intentioned.  Scott is too far gone to even have intentions, in a way.


I had a colposcopy done yesterday morning and tonight i feel blood rushing from me and its covering my underwear.

Call your doctor right away if you have any of the following problems after your colposcopy: \n\nHeavy vaginal bleeding (using more than one sanitary pad per hour). \nLower abdominal pain. \nFever, chills or a bad-smelling vaginal odor. \n\n"Heavy bleeding"   Hon, call the Dr. tell the service what's going on, tell them to page him and have him call you at home.

My chest are not big like women or weirdly, but they are not normal as before, and a bit hard without muscles! did anyone encounter something like that? please tell me what to do, I don't like surgery, and I didn't take medicine that caused it! could this be something genetically from my family?

Men and Women both  have the same number of ribs 12 pair\nsome about 8% of people do have a thirteenth rib but this occurs in either sex.


Latent heat of ice is 334kJ/kg.\nThis means, to convert 1kg of ice at 0c to 1kg of water at 0c it would require 334kJ (or 334000 Joules). \nSo, to convert 0.3kg of ice to water at the same temperature would require 0.3*334 or about 100kJ.\nThe answer would be (A) above.

Do NOT send them anything.\nIf you truly won anything, they would not need this info.


Did they lose their brain? Did they even have one?

They don't understand the theory behind yahoo answers and so just fill it up with junk.


if it was anybody else, most likely they would be in jail waiting for a trial.

i did not ask WHY you think bush should not be elected president for another four years, i asked what would be the blocks in the way of this i dont care about your opinion of him

Bush can not be re-elected President because he has already served his two terms... and no one can serve as President for more than 10 years. (the president can not serve a 3rd term because of the 22nd Amendment) \n\n\nTo answer the reworded question... my guess is they see it refers to Bush or the current government and just need to make sure they get a JAB in.


How can these two seperate names be mixed up so much?

I find that it's equally common among my children's classes and my senior citizens' classes that Noah, Abraham, Moses, Joshua ... they all get confused. (Most everyone associates Moses with the Commandments, but other than that ... poof! No connections.)\n\nIt's because most Christians are so New-Testament oriented that they neglect to study the (harder and more obscure) Old Testament.\n\nYet both are the stories of God working to save God's people! Both important!


She can use the extra hours to take leave when the boss says she can.  Is this illegal to not be paid. When you work nights you get night differential pay.  What do you think?

I think the boss is taking advantage of her.  She should contact the authorities right away.  If she gets fired, she is better off.\n\nTell her to keep complete and accurate records of all her unpaid work.\n\nMy son is also putting in an extra unpaid day at his work, \ndoing training every Saturday.  He claims it will help him in the future.  I believe the boss is taking advantage of him also, but it is voluntary on his part.


May be moving to either of the cities, would like information on housing, employment, schools, race realtions, cost of living, etc.  Inter-racial family of four, kids 16 and 8.  Also include information on pay and employment for certified teachers.

I live in a Kansas suburb of KC (Johnson County).  It is a relatively affluent area and I feel safe here.  North of KC (in Missouri), there is an area of new development (known as the northland).  It's not far from the airport and has some great new shopping and restaurants.\n\nI taught for 2 years in Olathe.  The school systems in Johnson County are considered to be very good.  There are also a number of private schools.\n\nYes, there are a lot of crazy conservative views in the state of Kansas, but not everyone feels the same way.  \n\nThere's lots of housing going up here and an influx of residents.  Jobs seem to be plenty.\n\nAbout teaching-  Pay in Olathe is not as good as some other districts.  If you are certified, you could sub in KS.  Missouri doesn't typically require certification to sub.\n\nDepending on your area of certification and level of experience, I would think that you could get hired within a year or two.  Especially if you sub.  I have several certifications (some of which are hard to find), so I've not had much trouble with finding work.\n\nGive KC a chance! :)

I am trying to locate this company, where they are?,tell#

Homside Lending, INC. the parent company of Homeside Insurance CO. was purchased by Washington Mutual Inc. In December 2001. \n\nDecember 11, 2001 -- Washington Mutual Inc. (WM) will solidify its hold as the nation’s leading mortgage servicer with its deal, announced late Dec. 11, to acquire for cash the operating assets of HomeSide Lending Inc., the U.S. mortgage unit of the National Australia Bank Ltd.\n\nWashington Mutual will pay a premium of $25M above the value of HomeSide assets, which was $1.9B at Sept. 30.\n\nWaMu will acquire HomeSide’s wholesale, correspondent and consumer-direct production channels, along with HomeSide servicing technology and servicing sites in Jacksonville, FL, and San Antonio, TX.

I am looking for the poem called The Dash  Not sure who the author is. Please e-mail me it chickeyis@adelphia.com\n\nIf anyone can help me please let  me know.

The Dash\n\n\nThe following is a poem by Linda Ellis © 1998.  Consider the implications for your own life's choices\n\nI read of a man who stood to speak at the funeral of a friend\nHe referred to the dates on her tombstone from the beginning to the end.\nHe noted that first came the date of her birth and spoke of the following date with tears,\nBut he said what mattered most of all was the dash between those years.\n\nFor that dash represents all the time that she spent alive on earth...\nAnd now only those who loved her know what that little line is worth.\n\nFor it matters not, how much we own; the cars .... the house... the cash.\nWhat matters is how we live and love and how we spend our dash.\n\nSo think about this long and hard ... are there things you'd like to change?\nFor you never know how much time is left. (You could be at "dash mid-range")\n\nIf we could just slow down enough to consider what's true and real,\nAnd always try to understand the way other people feel.\n\nAnd be less quick to anger, and show appreciation more,\nAnd love the people in our lives like we've never loved before.\n\nIf we treat each other with respect and more often wear a smile...\nRemembering that this special dash might only last a little while.\n\nSo, when your eulogy's being read with your life's actions to rehash...\nWould you be proud of the things they say about how you spend your dash??


If not shorthand, it may be a mathematical symbol.

It's a triangle, which is the capital Greek letter delta. It's the mathematical symbol for change. It looks like this: Δ

8 track. verses tapes. records verses c.d

I would have to say I like cassette tapes better because I never had an 8 track.  Records and CD's are harder to answer, I like CD's because they are smaller and easer to travel with.  I can take them in my car, or on an air plain, and listen to them.  I do like the richer quality of sound that comes from records.


This UNKNOWN female keeps calling and not saying anything on my cell. I know she is looking for someone named Don because she asked the first time she called. I think she thinks I am with him or something?? Anyways she is always silent when she calls and never says anything. What could I say to really piss her off to make her say something. Is there anything I can get that will automatically tell me her #?

You need to call your carrier first, they can look it up and see who it is.  You need to document every time she calls to show that there is  definitely a pattern of this harrassment say for about a period of two weeks.  Then you need to make a report to the police so they can press charges against this perosn.  This advise was given to me by a sheriff's deputy when my son was getting harrassing messaging on his cell.  Needless, to say, it stopped.


i was expecting to get a couple hundred dollars back from taxes like i usually do, but the job i was at this year didn't take enough out of my checks so now i owe $700.\nmy best friend is getting married on the other side of the country (im the maid of honor) the first week of april. i dont have the money to pay the irs and go to california.\ncan i just wait and file next year? h&r block told me they have payment plans but the interest is outragous. also i dont want to hurt my credit. help! :)

Your best bet is to make a payment plan with the irs. This way you can still go to your friends wedding, and won't get charge a pently for not filing.Make sure you change your W4 and get more taxes taking out.


Rumors say that the newest Bond movie will be the end of Bond. Is that true?

Yeah cuz the movie is gonna be a total flop. I can't believe they picked Daniel Craig. He is so wrong for the role. I don't know what they see in him but to me he's no James Bond. They guy is blonde for crying out loud! Not that I have anything against blondes but well I prefer Pierce Brosnan.

I lost all of the rubber feet for the bottom of my laptop.  They're all in a semi-oval/rectangle fashion, but rounded rubber feet about the size of a shirt button would work, possibly even work better to rais my laptop up higher for better ventilation.

Radio Shack used to carry these. They work great on remote controls too.

I hear that there is a bad advertising about Iran in other countries. I want to know what are you thinking about Iran...

Extremists who hate everything America stands for.  Run by people who want to build and use nuclear weapons. Hotbed of terrorism, which started with the abduction of the American hostages in 1980.  But still, we allow Iranians to come to our country to study, practice medicine and make better lives for themselves.  In gratitude, they want to kill us.  Nice people.  Warm and cuddly, huh?  How do you think we should think about you given your history and attitude toward the United States?


how to make each table cell size fixed.what hapens is when i type soem cells take bigger size n others take smaller siz3e.i aslo wanna make sure the letters r wordwrapped when the letters reach the end of the size of cell.plz tell me how to do so in wyswug editor like coffecup,dreamweaver,frontpage etc?

Naveed Zafar Sheikh is right in that you need to use a fixed width. Words get wrapped at the fixed number of pixels specified. There is one caveat, if the browser window is made smaller, the wrap will compress for each  to the pixel size of the longest word...\n\nSo for example, the following table:\n\n
\n
\nThis is text that should wrap since this is longer than 50 pixels.	\nThis is text that should wrap since this is longer than 100 pixels.	\nThis is text that should not wrap since this is probably shorter than 500 pixels.	\n
\n
\n\nlooks as expected when the browser window width is greater than 650 pixels. As the width decreases, so does the width of each column evetually looking something like this in the extreem case:\n\nThis is This is This is\ntest    text    text that\nthat    that    should\nshould  should  not wrap\nwrap    wrap    since this\nsince   since   is\nthis is this is probably\nlonger  longer  shorter\nthan    than    than 500\n50      100     pixels.\npixels. pixels.

I have really been paying attention lately and people are just fascinated with the paranormal or as some may call it demonic forces.  Either way what is going on?  More people answer questions regarding this subject than most others and there seems to be such anger towards one another in the answers.  Christians to non christians and vise versa.  I was just really curious.  Are we headed down a wierd road or what?

There is a battle in the spirit realm over the lives of mankind. satan just loves it when we tear each other down.

It hurts when you press on my bones, especially on my chest and rib cage area.  But it hurts most places I have found.  My cat can walk over my legs and it hurts.  What could this be?  I thought it might be fibromyalgia but when I looked it up it didn't really seem to be it.  I have had this for at least over a year now.  Thanks for your ideas.

My first question is have you seen a doctor about this?\n\nThere are a number of diseases that could cause bone pain, but this question and answer format is not really a good place to get a diagnosis or help for it.\n\nI have attached just one website that talks about bone pain. I think if you read it you will see that you need to get yourself to a doctor.  Your problem may be nothing serious, but it could be quite serious.\n\nGood luck with getting this sorted.


I heard from someone that the welfare system in other countries require people to work for the government, such as picking up litter.  Even if there is no litter, you still get the welfare check if you show up & scour the street to keep them clean.  In other words the government creates jobs even if those jobs aren't needed so there is more incentive for people to get off welfare and find their own jobs.  Would this work in the U.S., and if so, why hasn't this program been instituted?

What you're talking about is public works, which are not a bad idea really, but many (conservatives, mainly) see them as making the welfare problem worse.  The conservative's ideal solution would be to have the people on welfare working for private industry, not the government.  With public works you end up with additional staff, bureaucracy and taxation to pay for it than you do with just cutting a check, which means more bloated government, which is against the conservative doctrine of small government.  (Note this is the traditional definition of conservative.  Many Republicans (cough, Bush, cough) claim to be conservatives while at the same time massively increasing the size of the federal government and spending.)


does eating rare/raw meat increase the likleyhood of becoming infected with intestinal parasites? i LOVE bloody rare steaks and i would hate to give them up.i heard that i could get worms,but i have eaten rare steaks for years and i don't see any problems.

I won't eat meat that's not cooked through. When I was in the Army cross training with the Queens 1st Paratroopers in England, I learned that the only raw meat that is safe to eat is the liver. (survival Training)

i just want to know the reason why 0!=1. i hope somebody will answer my question. im a future math teacher that is why i want to know that because i want to make it clear for my future student and of course me myself to be able to understand it.

Math is really a system of agreed upon rules.  The concept of factorial is DEFINED like this:\n\n0! = 1\nn! = n * (n-1)!\n\nWhoever came up with the idea could have defined it any way he or she wanted.  They could have said that it's not defined for zero (just like it's not defined for negative numbers).\n\nSuppose they had defined 0! = 0.  Then for any number n, n! would be 0.  That would not be a very interesting concept.


MY BOYFRIEND OF ALITTLE OVER A YEAR NOW HAS CONTINUED TO LIE TO ME THROUGHOUT OUR RELATIONSHIP. HE TELLS ME HE LOVES ME AND HE WANTS TO SPEND THE REST OF HIS LIFE WITH ME BUT HE CONTINUES TO HURT ME. HE ALWAYS SAYS SORRY..BUT THEN A MONTH LATER HES LYING AND BEING DISHONEST. SOMETIMES I COME BACK TO MY HOMETOWN TO GET AWAY WHICH IS ACROSS COUNTRY TO WHERE HE IS. HE TELLS ME OVER THE PHONE THAT THINGS WILL BE DIFFERENT THIS TIME AND THAT HES READY FOR ME AND OUR RELATIONSHIP... BUT EVERYTIME I GET BACK ITS THE SAME CRAP OVER AGAIN. SHOULD I GO BACK OR STAY HOME?

I know that you truely know the right answer on this one: stay home.  Don't keep wasting your life and your time on someone who obviously isn't going to change overnight. All that's going to happen is you're going to get more and more sick of his bull, until the time comes that anything he does is "too little too late".\n\nAll I can say is Don't Look Back.

I am planning to move within the next year.  I am wanting a city or town near a city with a graduate school in psychology and good opportunities for my children when they get older.  I have not traveled very much, so I would enjoy some ideas, even places not to move to! I am young also, so where is fun, and safety for my babies???

Burlington, Vermont. it is located in northern vermont, on the shore of lake champlain. it is just an hour or so away from montreal so you can take weekend vacations. there is great skiing, and scenery. it is a very safe, not too small or too big, and has a great commnumity. there are lots of public services available, it is very clean,there are great schools, friendly people, lots of diversity, great jobs available, the list could go on and on. its a great town and state to raise children in. you should take a trip, i guarantee you'll fall in love with burlington.

I'm talking about curing hiccups, getting an ink stain out of fabric, fingernail polish can take off fingernail poilish, as long as you don't let it dry,if you don't have a remover around... fingernail polish will stop a run in pantyhose...etc.\n\nWhat things do you know, that others may find useful.. that is your own little known home remedy for situations? Please share a helpful talent that you know of.

Here are a couple.  If you want foods like puddings, cottage cheese, and sour cream (large sizes, not individual sizes) to keep longer, store them in the refrigerator upside down.  Helps keep the air out.\n\nQuick release ice cube trays not quick releasing anymore?  Spray them with cooking spray and then rinse well before filling.  It renews them!\n\nWhen cooking with butter, if you add a little oil, you can keep it from burning.\n\nDon't have a toothpick handy to check if your cake is done?  A piece of spaghetti will work to do that.

I posted another question about whey protien (spoiling) and someone responded and mentioned that if you take too much whey protien it can cause baldness? Is this true?

I have not had a problem with balding. I have been using whey protein for 5 years. There are some side effects with using to much. It can cause problems with the liver and kidneys. Thats what I have read in a few workout magazines.


what is the difference between PTFE and Graphite?

Teflon is an organic polymer (PTFE or polytetrafluoroethylene. It  was discovered on April 6, 1938 by Dr. Roy Plunkett at the DuPont research laboratories (Jackson Laboratory in New Jersey). Plunkett was working with gases related to Freon® refrigerants when upon checking a frozen, compressed sample of tetrafluoroethylene, he and his associates discovered that the sample had polymerized spontaneously into a white, waxy solid to form polytetrafluoroethylene or PTFE. \n\nPTFE was first marketed under the DuPont Teflon ® trademark in 1945. The molecular weight of Teflon can exceed 30,000,000, making it one of the largest molecules known. The surface is so slippery, virtually nothing sticks to it or is absorbed by it. No wonder Teflon was choosen to be used on non-stick cooking pans. \n\nGraphite is a essentially a form of pure carbon, totally inorganic, and naturally occurring.


people always say that im anorexic but im not even my family thinks i am HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i think you just need to keep saying so. Some people are just naturally lean. Or maybe you dont have as much of an appetite as others. \nI guess it doesn't matter whether you are skinny or fat they will always find a way to judge you. You just need to tell them where to shove it. Certainly your family should love you for what you are as a person. You are beautiful.

i am a muslim girl i love a christiam man and we decide to marry.but i found isnt allowed to a muslim girl marry a man whit a another religion.i dont know how i can solve it.

Listen carefully, it looks from your question that you are a devoted Moslem otherwise you will not ask such a question, and the correct answer for your question is that: Islam forbids a Moslem girl to marry to a non-Moslem man because it is likely that he might influence her and convert her to his religion, and you know what does that mean, but if she feels that he is sincere and he might convert to Islam, she might marry him after he converts to Islam and by that way she will please Allah in two things : first that she obeyed Him and didn't abandon her religion, second: she saved another soul from the hell fire.\nIf you need more assistance in any further questions about Islam please don't hesitate to contact me, sister.\nMy sincerest prayers for you.

ok lets get this straight, i am not a fan for either pittsburg no seattle. I am not trying to impose on the steelers victory. I just want see if your opinion is and see if the the Refs were injust of seattle's favor. to me it seemed like they were, what is your opinion

I think the game definitely could have been different (could, not would, there is no way to know).  There were at least three bum calls in my opinion.  Ben's touchdown was not a touchdown.  He was stopped in the air and down before he not so slyly moved the ball over the line (which was out of his posession at the time), though I can see not overturning it since it was not a slam dunk to see.  However, the supposed offensive pass interference that negated a Seahawks touchdown was not cool and neither was the super idiotic illegal blocking call on Hasselbeck where he was obviously tackling.


I'm about to redeem stocks/mutual funds.  Do I pay taxes when I redeem? Or at the end of the year at tax time?  If so, do I pay federal, state or both?  and whats the percentage (in MN)?\n\nTHX!

You owe taxes on any capital gains that resulted from the sale, plus any dividend that were paid in 2005 before you sold the stock.  You will pay the tax on these when you file your 2005 tax returns by April 17.  For federal tax, there is a special rate for dividends and for long term (held more than 1 year) capital gains.  It is 10 or 15 % depending on your tax bracket.  You should complete schedule D of the 1040 tax form.  There is no special treatment for capital gains in Minnesota, so the gains will be taxed as normal income (typically 7.05%, but up to 7.85% if your income is over $100,000).  You will get a 1099-B and/or 1099-Div statement from your broker.  In the unlikely event that they withheld tax (which they would only do if the IRS has notified you that you are subject to backup withholding) it will show on the 1099-B.

terrorism- the act of terrorizing; use forceor threats to demoralize, intimidate, and subjugate, such use as a political weapon or policy

If someone's behavior has the tendency to terrorize, and its intention is to force change by violent means, we generally consider it terrorism, regardless of its impact on any individual in particular.

Honestly, Read no less than 100 pages per day, every day. Write a review of what you have read. If you are reading a news article, write arguments for both sides. The other thing is to get a Black's Law Dictionary. Memorize 20 terms from it each day. Critical reading, and writing are absolutely necessary. The less time you spend looking up terms, the faster your studies will be (hence memorizing them ahead of time).

A while back I went to college and withdrew unofficially, causing the college to charge an exhorbitant amount of money for breaking the contract of my dorm.  I owe them $3400, and it has been sent to collection.  I also have a direct loan in the amount of $3700 that paid for my tuition that is in good standing. I cannot attend school again until the college is paid and they release my transcripts, unless I pay out of pocket, which I cannot afford.  I was a member of Americorps and earned an education award in the amount of $4700.  I can use it to pay off the loan or *current* college expenses.  So I see two options, go to school and pay for it with the award as if I never went to college before, and still not have enough to finish. Or i can pay off the loan, hope that helps my credit enough to get a debt consolidation loan to pay off the college (They want it in full) and finally be able to apply for a FAFSA again and go to school.  I just really want to go back to school.  Any advice?

Save enough to pay off the school is your first step, then use Americorp to help pay your current tuition (interest rates on student loans are higher now than a few year years ago).  You may also think about "consolidating" your Stafford loan to get a fixed rate before June 30, 2006.


I'm wanting to get in shape and maybe lose alittle weight.  I need an exersize routine that works all my body.  But something besides push ups and crunches, they never seem to do any good any more.  Maybe a healthier diet to.  I want to lose 10 to 20lbs... so any suggestions??

I am 5'3 and weigh 110 pounds :\n\n*I don't eat fast food more than twice a week\n*I do little things throughout the day (arm circles while brushing teeth, walk fast to class, etc)\n*I try to burn at least 200 calories on a treadmill 3-5 times a week\n*Eat larger meals at lunch, rather than dinner, because it will burn off more\n*I do not eat dinner after 7PM\n*I only drink Diet Cokes/Diet Pepsi, and I do drink Milk\n\nI eat South Beach Diet peanut butter cookies for breakfast with red powerade. It's actually good, and healthy!\n\nAlso, if you have a sweet tooth, a good way to satisfy it is by toasting wheat sandwich bread, spread margarine on it, and top it with cinnamon. It's good, and not bad for you!\n\nHope this helps!!


Did the woodchuck who chucked wood make the basket that Peter Piper put his pickled peppers in? And how many sea shells would she have to sell by the sea shore to buy a peck of pickled peppers that Peter Piper picked?

The tooter who tooted the flute tutored two tooters to toot to earn money to purchase the wood that the woodchuck chucked to make the basket that Peter Piper put his pickled peppers in.  Fuzzy Wuzzy, who was a bear, needed shell earrings for his wife bear to wear.  He purchased the shells from Sally by the sea shore, and he liked them so much that he bought four more, so Sally sold six sea shells by the sea shore to purchase a peck of pickled peppers from Peter Piper.


I'm a teacher and today i lost it. I've been a teacher for 2 years for authestic kids. After having a really hard day i left my classroom and went out crying. My boss told me that we have to talk on monday. Do u think i will loose my job?

FIrst of all, what do you mean by authestic??  Do you mean AUTISTIC? If so then you should know how the word is spelled since you are their teacher. \n\nSecond of all, if you left the classroom and had a breakdown, were the kids left in the classroom alone? Since they have special needs and could have gotten into/done anything while you were out, that could be terms for firing.\n\n\nMaybe you can request some time off so you can get your bearings back??\n\n*******************it's MONDAY, I am curious to know what happened!


Using a light year as a distance measurement has another advantage -- it helps you determine age. Let's say that a star is 1 million light years away. The light from that star has traveled at the speed of light to reach us. Therefore, it has taken the star's light 1 million years to get here, and the light we are seeing was created 1 million years ago. So the star we are seeing is really how the star looked a million years ago, not how it looks today. In the same way, our sun is 8 or so light minutes away. If the sun were to suddenly explode right now, we wouldn't know about it for eight minutes because that is how long it would take for the light of the explosion to get here.

i do believe so...\n\nmore likely traveling into the past makes more scientific sense than into the future...\n\nwell, u enver know wut we gon discover in the nex years... u never know...\n\njus like thing used to be myth in the past, now, its jus a piece of common sense

I saw this film about 7 years ago. It chronicled the work of a fraud who would put on elaborate spectacles and claim to heal people of their disabilities by working through Jesus. However it was painstakingly faked, and the people in wheelchairs were actually completely healthy. \n\nHowever, one day someone was brought up with a real disability, but when it came to the final event he was actually healed! The fraud couldn't face the fact that the miracle was real this time, that he'd actually cured someone. \n\nDoes anyone remember the name of this film? I'd really love to watch it again.

I spend most of my time being mad or depressed.  I hardly ever smile. I was in couslin for years and was on meds for years.  Neither help me...  Any advise?

The only thing I can say to you is that you have to find joy in the small things that happen. A beautiful flower or sunset, hearing a child laugh, a kindness done for you by another person. If you wait around for the "big things" to bring you joy - ie; winning the lottery, marrying rich, becoming a movie star - you won't ever be happy because those things just don't "happen" in real life. Okay, sometimes they do, but rarely, ya know? Sometimes it's going to be a minute to minute thing, but you have to make yourself look for something positive, make yourself find one thing that makes you happy - even for just a minute. I know.


I'm dating someone who has revealed to me that she's currently being stalked by a man she briefly dated over a year ago (they dated/hooked up for about 3 months).  He hasn't threatened her physically, but won't stop calling & showing up at her place trying to "win her back."  She swears she's done/said everything she can think of to make it VERY clear that she's not interested and he needs to leave her alone, but he still won't quit.  I'm aware that the next logical step would be for her to get a restraining order, but here's the twist - she also knows for a fact that this guy has ties to and has worked for the Russian mafia (in LA) and could potentially have a bad/dangerous reaction if she went to the police.  She doesn't want to "stir him up," and is hoping he'll eventually just give up, but it's been over a year and he's still calling/coming by.  I want to help/advise her and don't think it'd be wise to get personally involved, so any advice would be greatly appreciated!  Thanks!

I would like to understand what you think about divisions as Catholicism, Protestantism... and so on.  I would also like to see a biblical viewpoint.

I would like a recipe for a home made bath and beauty product that is a 3 in 1 shampoo, conditioner and body wash.  They are for sale in various places.  Philosophy is one brand.  I would like to make my own.

I have a friend whose kid baths only with V05 shampoo because other soaps irritate her skin. I dont think you have to mix to make ur own just use (or create if you can) a mild-ish soap. make it peach /strawberry scented. ; )

I went off to college at 18 and got into alot of trouble, bad grades, flunked out. Now I want to start over at community college. Do I have to transfer my old credits? It'll start me with a horrible GPA! I am 27 now and I just want to start over again.

You don't necessarily have to submit your former college transcripts, but you will have to rely solely on your high school grades to get you into the new school, and you'll have to repeat courses for which you've already earned credit.  \n\nBut you should know that most schools won't include your previous schooling in your GPA, it's like you're starting with a blank slate, and the new school's transcripts will only reflect credit earned in Courses X, Y and Z from the old school, not the grades earned.\n\nIt's up to you really, but given that you are 27, can you try applying as a mature student?  It would improve your chances of getting in.  Good Luck either way.


I am paralleling a home-made pc with an old Packard Bell, because the P.B. has a larger processor & more memory & when I tried to integrate them there was so much conflict within it crashed.  I really love the old dinosaur that my friend put together for me back in the mid-90's, but because of the small stats there are alot of things it's not capable of (games), IE6, JavaSun etc. just to name few, so instead of possibly losing all I came up with this bright idea to use a parrallel. The thing is, when I had both hard drives in the one pc, I forgot to check for needed drivers in the P.B. hard drive & formatted it, since I was using my hd from the 'Dino'  as the master.  Now I can't find the driver for the P.B.  HELP!!

Hi Z. I'm not familiar with your "parallel" term (or "integrate", for that matter!).\nI guess u mean you're NETWORKING the 2 PCs ?\n\nIf so, yes, I think you do need drivers, cards, etc in each one, so each PC can stand on its own 2 feet.\n\nShame about the lost drivers ... I have no idea, except to look on the net (maybe a Packard-Bell site?) where just about EVERYTHING seems "available", if only you can find it !


As ridiculous as this question sounds, a friend just returned from China and was told by their tour guide that the Chinese Government looks the other way when someone from Tibet kills someone as long as it's the first person they have killed. They are prosecuted only if they kill two or more people.

I am not so sure about this: the chinese are very lax on minorities. Some minorities can carry knives in public as it is part of their traditional costume. \n\nAbout 90% of the people in China are of the Han race, but there are also a lot of minorities. I have heard of cases whereby minorities have stabbed people and got away with murder. Strange?

I am not saying that education is a bad thing.  Its just that we waste so much of our time learning things that we dont have to know ever in life.\n\nExamples: Drama, poetry, what indirect objects are, logarithms, euclidian geometry, the elements that compose your DNA, or what in the world Shakespere was writing about.\n\nI understand having to know some of these things, but most of these things we wont even think about for the rest of our lives.  You should only have to learn what is required to be learned about the specific career you plan on going into.\n\nWe are wasting the best years of our youth in school being forced to learn things which we will never use for the rest of our lives.\n\nAm I wrong?

No, you're not entirely wrong.\n\nSchool is and will always be a waste because our school systems are not teaching you the proper subjects, such as money management, how to invest, how to save, etc.  What they do teach you is just enough to answer Trivial Pursuit.  \n\nHowever, pay attention in Econ, Math and English.  Learn a second language.  Get involved in school activities and school government. \n\nThe best thing about school is learning how to be social and how to network.  Yeah, you may be a HS'er or College kid but networking early is always a good thing.  You never know -- those nerds in the Math club may have something going on in 10 years.


I want to completely understand this kind of bonds with exceptions that we have in this case.

Force holding atoms in a molecule together as a specific, separate entity (as opposed to, e.g., colloidal aggregates; see bonding).\n\nIn covalent bonds, two atoms share one or more pairs of valence electrons to give each atom the stability found in a noble gas. In single bonds (e.g., H-H in molecular hydrogen), one electron pair is shared; in double bonds (e.g., O=O in molecular oxygen or H2C=CH2 in ethylene), two; in triple bonds (e.g., HCºCH in acetylene), three. In coordinate covalent bonds, additional electron pairs are shared with another atom, usually forming a functional group, such as sulfate (SO4) or phosphate (PO4). The number of bonds and the atoms participating in each (including any additional paired electrons) give molecules their configuration; the slight negative and positive charges at the opposite ends of a covalent bond are the reason most molecules have some polarity (see electrophile; nucleophile). Carbon in organic compounds can have as many as four single bonds, each pointing to one vertex of a tetrahedron; as a result, certain molecules exist in mirror-image forms (see optical activity). Double bonds are rigid, leading to the possibility of geometric isomers (see isomerism). Some types of bonds, such as the amide linkages that join the amino acids in peptides and proteins (peptide bonds), are apparently single but have some double-bond characteristics because of the electronic structure of the participating atoms. The configurations of enzymes and their substrates, determined by their covalent bonds (particularly the peptide bonds) and hydrogen bonds, are crucial to the reactions they participate in, which are fundamental to all life


Like are you guys always worring about the outside of a woman instead of the inside.Please let me know.

That's a tricky question, cuz not all men are the same.Like me, I look for nice personality, honesty,and someone to love me for me, not for what I have.Most importantly, she has to have high self esteem.All the physical things come in a little later.


i am a female of 22.i feel the urge to have sex very very strongly at sometime and then it dramatically dips down at certain times..am i normal?

Women are like the Moon, Men are like the Sun when it comes to our sex drive.  Like the moon, we have cycles... sometimes we feel the urge strongly (full moon)... at other times, we just don't feel it at all(new moon). So don't worry, you're normal.


Do you have right to tell government, its my body, and I don't want it in battle?

No. But I believe that women shouldnt be allowed to have abortions either. After all its not just their body, and the other body is what they are attempting to abort.


If you answer yes or no please explain the main reson for yes or for a no ie: No because the bathroom was gross, yes because someone was with me.\nThis is for my daughter science project and I just want a honest answers looking for 100

I wash my homes whether Im in a public place or at home, anything less than that is disgusting.

he's cool,gemini,born on 15th of june 1991,he thinks he's handspme and e'one likes 'em..quite playful,sometimes quite annoying,luvs liverpool.....and all those stuff.....

you know when the real deal comes along no one will have to say a thing you will kmow from both your felings about him wait and see?


this is one of the lyrics in a shakira song

It means roughly, "Stay Baby, Stay Baby. Don't go away again."  or something close to that.


Ypres is a city in Belgium, where three major battles were fought during World War I...
