I am so tired of not even being able to chat without people trying to have sex with me.  Doesn't anybody have a life anymore.

Answer to your question: people are sick, sad, lonely, bored, and at times, just plain depraved.  \n\nComment to your question:  I agree with you 100% and I was just thinking the same thing about this Q & A forum...and it reminds me of why I quit chatting online before!

I have never been able to rely on coffee to keep me awake.  When I am sleepy, thats it, I could drink 4 cups and would still sleep like a baby.  Do I have more resistance to certain substances than others?

Coffee can often have a paradoxical effect, in which it can actually induce sleep-this occurs generally at very high doses, or in people that are especially sensitive to it.  But, as is the case with all chemicals, there is a wide range of physiological responses in humans, and you may just be immune to the stimulatory effects of caffeine-it probably has to do with the levels of detoxifying enzymes in your liver-thus, you may be insensitive to many drugs.  This is something to be aware of if you are ever ill and need medication.


It is definitely useful for mental health and physical health also.\n\nI prefer the early mornings to take my walks because it clears my mind,refreshes my thoughts and puts things for the day into perspective. It is my time alone to think,reflect and just enjoy the beauty of the day. It is quiet,peaceful and relaxing.


Which team knocked current holders Liverpool out of this seasons UEFA Champions League?

Benfica knocked them out.  Final is between Arsenal and Barcelona for the benefit of those thinking Villareal were in it.


what can i do about that. what are my legal actions

Try visiting your state's website for governing the real estate entity.  They should have a number to call for grievances.  If you are in California, visit www.dre.ca.gov.  That is definitely illegal and you may have a small window for statute of limitations on this so act quickly.  If you call the lender first, before seeking guidance, they may "call the note" which means that you will have to refinance or pay the loan in full at that point in time.


I always loved Garfield and I want to know who does.

my daughter asked me this and i am not sure. please help

i think so, at least in the US, where cigarette advertising is now illegal.  I know on TV there are so many anti-smoking ads and no smoking ads. Look at Phillip morris' website. It tells you more about how dangerous their product is than how good it is.  Of course they were forced to do this, and cigarettes are their own advertisement, they are very hard to quit. Funny, its not illegal to advertise nicotine gum, which costs $40 a box


..besides the one about men sleeping with men, which of course everybody loves--what are some of your OTHER favorites from LEVITICUS?

Ooh!  I like this question:\n\nLeviticus 11:6-7 - The rabbit, though it chews the cud, does not have a split hoof; it is unclean for you. And the pig, though it has a split hoof completely divided, does not chew the cud; it is unclean for you. \n\nLeviticus 11:10-12 - But all creatures in the seas or streams that do not have fins and scales - whether among all the swarming things or among all the other living creatures in the water - you are to detest. And since you are to detest them, you must not eat their meat and you must detest their carcasses. Anything living in the water that does not have fins and scales is to be detestable to you.\n\nLeviticus 19:19 - Keep my decrees. Do not mate different kinds of animals. Do not plant your field with two kinds of seed. Do not wear clothing woven of two kinds of material. \n\nLeviticus 19:27 - Do not cut the hair at the sides of your head or clip off the edges of your beard.


Can DHR remove children from the home if it's very dirty inside? They have a dog that is not house broken,dishes are piled up to the ceiling.trash piled up,The house smells really bad.They have 2 small children. They have extention cords laying all over the floor that are plugged into the electric outlets.I won't even mention what the bathroom looks like.The parents both work full time,,but that's no excuse for having a nasty house.As far as the kids they get things they need.They always have food to eat and get medical attention when it's needed.I see no signs of abuse, They just live like pigs..Am I over reacting?

If there is no sign of abuse, and the children are being fed and taken care of, then it is possible that one or both of the parents are "messies". This is an ADD-like condition in which people are seemingly incapable of cleaning their surroundings, because they have serious organizational problems. This is an actual disorder. There is even an Messies Anonymous organization. However, this doesn't make the kids' lives any easier. They'll still suffer from the stigma of living in a rat's nest, even though it's not their fault. \n\nIt's hard to say what to do in this case. If the children are fed and not abused, there may not be anything that you can really do for them.\n\nHere is one website among many for messies who are trying to recover. Notice that one of the greatest fears among these people are having their children taken away, which is something that could realistically happen if the wrong governmental worker comes around:\n\nhttp://www.squalorsurvivors.com/index.shtml


Many people are skinny when they are younger and get fat when they get older.  For example my uncle is 5' 11" tall, he weighed 140-150 lbs. in high school and in his 30's he weighed 150-160 lbs.  He was always skinny and could eat anything he wanted without gaining weight until his 40's! Now he weighs 200 lbs.!  If being fat is genetic, then shouldn't my uncle have been fat all his life, not just in his 40's?

It's called bad diet. When u are older and u just eat without thinking this is one of many ways for u to get fat. \n\nTake this for example: My mother showed me a picture of her in her teen years. Wow! She was so slim back then but now her feet are swollen. After seeing this i asked her why this happened. Where there history of cholesterol in the family, or heart disease anything. \n\nHer reply was no it's just that over the years her diet, her movement all changed. She told me that she never watched what she ate or when she ate and how much of it she took. Also she never excised or then any outdoor activity like walking, running, swimming, hiking and such. \n\nHowever, for most people high cholesterol is an issue and is inherited through genes or over doing it with more meat and seafood while less plant foods. \n\nHow this helps.

apparently it stands for Situation Normal All Fucked Up

"SNAFU" is an acronym meaning things are in a mess – as normal. The most commonly accepted rendering is "Situation Normal: All Fucked Up". In modern usage, this rendering is commonly used, as is a "snafu" referring to an otherwise normal situation that suddenly went awry. The acronym is believed to have originated in the US Army during World War II when Don Taylor and Dominick Trapasso of the 160th Infantry Regiment, 40th Infantry Division, California National Guard at Camp San Luis Obispo, California in April 1941 practiced sending encoded radio messages.[1] It is also the name of a cartoon United States Army training video as well as the main character, Private Snafu, in the video. SNAFU's meaning was later modified to "Situation Normal, All Fouled Up" for more polite conversation. There are a number of slang army acronyms that are similar to SNAFU. They include:\n\nSNAFU - Situation Normal: All Fucked Up. \nSUSFU - Situation Unchanged, Still Fucked Up. \nFUMTU - Fucked Up More Than Usual. \nFUBB - Fucked Up Beyond Belief. \nTARFU - Things Are Really Fucked Up. \nTOFU - Things Ordinary: Fucked Up. \nGFU - General Fuck Up. \nSAMFU - Self Adjusting Military Fuck Up. \nBOHICA - Bend over, here it comes again. \nTUIFU - The Ultimate In Fuck Ups. \nFUBAR - Fucked Up Beyond All Recognition/Repair/Reason/Redemption. \nFUGAZI - Fucked Up, Got Ambushed, Zipped In; Refers to out-of-control situation such as a chaotic jungle warfare combat environment \nJANFU - Joint Army/Navy Fuck-Up; apparently used by British troops in WWII. \nJAAFU - Joint Army-Air Force Fuck-Up; the use of JANFU combined with a radical increase in joint-forces operations since 1989, has led to the rare but increasing use of JAAFU. \nDILLIGAF/DILLIGAS - Do I Look Like I Give A Fuck/Shit? Interogative form of, "(It) don't mean nothing." Both often heard in Vietnam. \nTINS - This Is No Shit! Often seen in veterans' forums. \nMUBAR - Mash up beyond all recognition. Refers to being proper mash up. \nSMUBAR - Semi mash up beyond all recognition. Not quite MUBAR but well on the way. \nNote: In situations where 'fucked' is inappropriate, it is often replaced with 'fouled'\n\nElectronics engineers say that SNAFU and FUBAR were used before the war by repairmen sent out to repair telephone booths. They had to report the situation at arrival to the scene, often on a very bad line, so they developed these acronyms to make themselves understood.\n\nSnafu is also used in the Illuminatus trilogy and in the Private Snafu series of World War II animated cartoons.


to kick a stupid little ball around?!?!?!  and why do you d ouchebags wear shin guards??  you are all just a bunch of p ussies!!

They kick a bag of wind around and try to score goals. The team that scores the most wins! If you're really good at kicking the ball - you make loads of money like David Beckham and marry a "Pop Star"; or just make loads of money. If you get in a National Team you get to see the world and catch exotic diseases! Unlike Formula One, which is sophisticated, technical and life threatening. Football can be played by anyone brainless - with a talent for kicking the bag of wind around. Knowing the Managing director of a famous club - helps you get in - knowing his wife - helps you get in even more places. They wear shin guards - so if some other mummies boy kicks them  - they won't get hurt and lose a weeks pay. Although they'd probably pay them even more for not playing.... People become fans of football clubs - fan being an abbreviation for fanatic. They pay silly prices to get in and watch it in the freezing cold. They pay to watch it on TV now! They pay a small fortune for the "team" shirt or even the whole strip! Then little "Tommy" has to have a strip to match his daddy.... Then mummy gets in on the act - because she gets bored on a Saturday afternoon - and she gets a team tattoo only daddy can find... This answer really deserves 10 points!

I am an Australian with a professional degree (veterinary medicine) and a masters degree in veterinary public health.  I would like to undertake a PhD overseas (for a change of scenery and new experiences) and thought Canada sounded like a really interesting place to do this.\nOverseas students are very common at Australian universities.  What's the situation in Canada?  Are foreign students common at universities?  Is it easy to get a student visa?  Is studying a PhD in Canada expensive?  Are fee scholarships available to overseas students?\n\nAny major considerations about studying in Canada that a foreigner might not know about but should know?

You have to get funding to get a study permit.  Generally for a PhD level study this is easy.  If you have good grades then you qualify for scholarships.  If you can find a mentor with alot of funding who wants you then you can get a decent stipend.  Each university is different in so far as waiving fees.  McGill has this policy of giving a few international fee waivers occasionally but it is never guaranteed.  I was surprised by the fact that when I am done with my coursework I still have to pay full time tuition for research credit.  Tuition is like 12,000 a year for international students. I suggest two things one is the Rotary Ambassadorial Scholarship program.  They can give one year full or two year partial scholarships.  Contact your local rotary for application due dates.  There is a significant lag time for the scholarship to kick in and you cannot go early.\nThe second recommendation is that if you wanted to find and work for a mentor before hand you could try SWAP Canada and get a year long work permit not too expensively if you have recently finished full time classes.  You can work anywhere with the permit.  Get a immigration medical exam before you leave if you want to work in a pet hospital\n\nGood luck


Well ive been talkin to this one girl for some time but weve talked about a relationship and she wasnt crazy about it this other girl ive known since the begining of the year but she is staring me down lately and ive just been saying "hi how are you"; "wasup" you know 2 second talk and staring at her back when we do i get this little smile and she does to.... what do i do now!!!!!please help me(i still like the first girl too)

I'm looking for a word similar to "Eurocentric" but should include Europe and North America. Anyone know of it?

I've seen "Atlantocentric", but that's open to misinterpretation (could meet NATO-centric, US/UK-centric, or NAm/Euro-centric).\n"Euro-American" occasionally pops up.\nThe clumsier "Western-centric" is quite common, but would also technically cover other "Western" societies like Aus or NZ.

I want to get the most up to date imac g4(i think its called that) that usually costs $1000. Does anyone know where I can get the laptop for cheaper?

Well,\n There are quite a few sites that sell both new and used Apple laptops. If you are a first time user, go to a Brick-and-Mortar store, not eBay, and NOT any little weird "shopping" site. Don't click on a "FREE" link (There AIN'T NO SUCH THING AS A FREE LUNCH !!!)\n I would say Apple, or Applefritter or even MacMall, that's a few to start.


details about the castle and it's appearance, who all worked in it

If you are talking about the legendary castle:  It depends on who is telling the story.  Different versions of the legend, from the ancient folk tales to the Victorian poets.  The first link has different retellings of the Arthurian legend.\n\nIf you are talking about the historical figure of Arthur, who may or may not have existed:  There is a sight in Cadbury, England, which is usually pointed to as the "historical Camelot;" it was an ancient hillfort.  There have been stone age, Roman and Saxon artifacts unearthed in the area.  Life inside and around its walls depended on who was in charge at the time, and whether there was peace or war.  It was probably a site of battles, as well as a place of residence.  The second two links have information about the Cadbury site.

would like to know what you did and how well they work any side affects

i hope they were prescribed by your doctor. i did.. they were blue and had line through them. however i took only as prescribed .. i was young.. and i exercised and watched what i ate. i lost and average of five to eight pounds a month.  maybe more the first month.  but remember the slower you take it off.. the longer it will stay off.  fast weight loss means faster weight gain and more pounds..than before.


I want your teams all time greats but using only one HOF position player and one HOF pitcher if your team has no hall of famers wel do your best think about it do some research and keep it real ex. my team is the twins I could not use Steve Carlton he pitched for parts of two years for us but sucked. I would like a batting order and one or two reserves, include DH, and a four man rotation plus two or three relievers. Here is mine\n1. 2B Chuck Knoblauch\n2. RF Tony Oliva\n3.

I love those old Twins, like Tony O (would've been a sure HOF if not for his knees?)...I loved the Kirby/"Hrbe" teams as well...Too bad, you couldn't get Rod Carew there, but I guess you had to choose btwn him and Puckett, given the one HOF'er rule...\n\nSince I'm a lifetime Phillies fan, here goes (since I've been following anyway):\n\nC- Bob Boone\n1B - Dick Allen  (almost snuck in Pete Rose here)\n2B - Chase Utley (apologies to Manny Trillo and Juan Samuel)\nSS - Larry Bowa\n3B - Michael Jack Schmidt (HOF)\nLF - Lonnie Smith (a personal fave who started here, and was actually the leadoff hitter on 3, and almost 4 World Series winners)\nCF - Gary Maddox\nRF - Bake McBride\n\nLINEUP:  Smith - Utley - Schmidt - Allen - McBride - Maddox - Boone - Bowa - Carlton (no DH)\n\nReserves:  Cookie Rojas (IF), Greg Gross/Del Unser (OF) and one more?  Tomas Perez\n\nRotation\nLHP Steve Carlton (HOF)\nRHP Curt Schilling  \nRHP Jim Bunning  \nLHP Randy Wolf (a little weak)\nRHP Rick Wise (not great either, but...he once threw a no-hitter and hit 2 HRs in same game, and we traded him for "Lefty"\n\n\n\nBullPen\nTug McGraw (the late, great)\nMitch Williams (keep things exciting)\nGene Garber (liked the swivel delivery)

You're not far away. As you get older, you're legs will get stronger. I've seen a few 5'10" players dunk, so it's not only height but also legs.

I hold a masters degree in Education and I hold another masters degree in Child Development from UC Davis. But, in the city I live in it is rare for anybody to hire someone if they have an education. I am not sure what to do! I want the job ( Cheerleading coach -  it sounds like fun) but I am afraid that if I put down that I have my degrees from UC Davis, they won't hire me! I was thinking of just saying that I just have a BS in Child development and education & not my masters. What do you think!

Any application for any job you add your credentials, what the point of holding back, if they say you are over qualified, then they got other issues.


In other words, how do they know when they are the "correct" length and to stop growing?

Yes, follicle cells like all cells have a life cycle. They only live for a period of time, if they don't then you'd have cancer. Once the follicle cell dies the hair falls off preventing it from growing longer.\n\nbtw, can't u answer with "God is amazing like that" for every question? Please.... I guess God is great so you don't have to think.


no offense but i have a hard time understanding what they wrote.

think about how crappy it must be for the poor pharmacists to read what the doctors write!\n\nin reality, most of the doctors probably have very nice handwriting. while making the prescription, or taking notes, they are usually in a huge rush, so their writing turns into chicken-like font! \n\nsometimes, i doubt they realize how hard it is for someone else to read their writing!


It's a cheap laptop, Toshiba Satellite, Celeron Processor I picked up during one of those holiday sales to hold me over until I can get a new T60. \n\nIt overheats after a while and suddenly shuts down on me. It's done is so much that I was forced to reformat b/c of all the problems that were caused from it shutting off right in the middle of running apps. \n\nany ideas ?

It may be from dust build up.  A lot of cheap laptops have internal setups that hold a lot of dust in. You may want to try and buy one of those compressed air cans and spray thru the vents in your laptop every once in a while.


include nursing responsibilities in the application of rotating tourniquet as well as the procedure in application

(m)\n\ncompression device used to cut off the flow of blood to a part of the body, most often an arm or leg. It may be a special surgical instrument, a rubber tube, a strip of cloth, or any flexible material that can be tightened to exert pressure. Compression should not be maintained for more than 20 min at a time because of the danger of congestion and gangrene. In cases of a bleeding emergency, a tourniquet is used to stop the flow of blood if other means, e.g., the application of a pressure bandage to the wound, are not effective. In arterial hemorrhage (bright red blood spurting out in jets) the tourniquet is applied above the wound, i.e., between the wound and the heart. In hemorrhage from a vein (an even flow of dark red blood) the tourniquet is applied below the wound, i.e., away from the heart.


my doctors say i have ulcers in my mouth... they say it's because i stress...what the hell are they and how can i get them to stop coming.... and I"M NOT STRESSED or a std

Gargle with warm salt water, peroxide diluted with water, or any kind of antiseptic mouthwash, every 2-4 hours, will help kill the germs and help keep bacteria in check, which should help them heal.  Will also help keep new ones from forming if used daily after the other ones have healed.\n\nThere is also over-the-counter ointments, that are applied directly to the ulcers  (canker sores), which help them heal faster.  Avoid smoking, no chewing on the ulcer or messing with them, avoid real aspirin and spicy foods.


history of FIFA\nRules and Regulations of Football game

The need for a single body to oversee the worldwide game became apparent at the beginning of the 20th century with the increasing popularity of international fixtures. The English Football Association had chaired many discussions on setting up an international body, but was perceived as making no progress. It fell to seven other European countries to band together to form this association. FIFA was founded in Paris on May 21, 1904 - the French name and acronym persist to this day, even in English-speaking countries. Its first president was Robert Guérin.\n\nFIFA presided over its first international competition in 1906, however it met with little approval or success. This, in combination with economic factors, led to the swift replacement of Guérin with Daniel Burley Woolfall from England, by now a member association. The next tournament staged, the football competition for the 1908 Olympics in London was more successful, despite the presence of professional footballers, contrary to the founding principles of FIFA.\n\nMembership of FIFA expanded beyond Europe with the application of South Africa in 1909, Argentina in 1912 and the United States in 1913.\n\nFIFA however floundered during World War I with many players sent off to war and the possibility of travel for international fixtures severely limited. Post-war, following the death of Woolfall, the organisation fell into the hands of Dutchman Carl Hirschmann. It was saved from extinction, but at the cost of the withdrawal of the Home Nations, who cited an unwillingness to participate in international competitions with their recent World War enemies.


What is your favorite animal? Why is it your favorite? Iteresting fact about the animal?

Wolves, they are very intelligent, strong, and care deeply for their packs, fact: Wolves were at one time the most widely distributed predator on the planet living in all of Europe, much of Asia, and almost all of North America.


I've had a headache for a week from weird neck pain, and I've been extremely tense for the last couple of days. Lately I've been experiencing what I guess you would call heart palpitations? Whatever, I feel that jumpy feeling in my heart 4 or 5 times in 10 seconds. I've been kind of short of breath for no reason. I've experienced axiety attacks before from getting really worked up about something that was going to happen to me, or when my crazy sister walks in the room. It kind of feels like that, but on a smaller scale. Also it's been going on fo a week. I have no reason to stress, work is fine, money is of course tight, but no different than normal. Relationships are all fine. NO REASON TO STRESS???

Yes, definitely see your doctor. Anxiety, depression, ADD, and the like are complicated and are many times just the body and brain reacting to either an inherent or temporary chemical imbalance. Stress, in general, can hurt your arteries regardless of your coronary health.  You may also have a sleep disorder that you are unaware of. \n\nI had funny things happening in my chest and it scared me to death. The problem actually went away, but the doctor said that it was a normal expression of abnormal stress. It wasn't even a rough period I was going through. Although he didn't put me on medication, you may need it, and there are plenty of good, tested over time, anti-depressants/antianxietal drugs such as Wellbutrin XL that are for people who are dealing with anxiety but are still quite able to function in day to day life. So, no Prozac or Zoloft would be needed here... \n\nbut DEFINITELY go to the doctor to eliminate anything regarding your coronary system. But, like I said, if you are in good health otherwise, don't jump to conclusions about your heart and follow your intuition: Yes, it is possible to have mild anxiety all the time. You are not crazy, you are normal, and there are things that will help you...


to their environment..for ex: Inuits/Esquimos did not use to eat vegetables and fruits..did their body, metabolism  adapted in some way ? Curious about that..thanks for your answers !

Well, when you eat only certain foods or live in a certain climate or at a certain elevation, your body DOES adapt to a certain extent.  Your body is remarkably good at getting what it needs from whatever it can get.  That doesn't mean you shouldn't still try to eat a balanced diet, but if, for example, you're not getting enough of a certain vitamin your body will get every drop of that vitamin that it can out of everything you eat.  Certainly you can still end up with vitamin deficiencies, etc., but within limits your body will adjust its digestive processes to get the right nutrients out of whatever food it's getting.\n\nYour body does the same thing with cold.  Have you ever noticed that when it's the middle of winter and it's been below freezing for the past month, and then it's hits 50˚F and you want to start wearing shorts, whereas if it's been 80 for the past month, when it hits 50 you're freezing?  Well, your body gets used to the cold.  If you've lived in a cold climate longer, the change is more dramatic.  Like at my school, you can always separate Californians from East Costers because we Californians get out our winter coats while kids from the East where they actually have winters are still in shorts.\n\nThe same thing happens if you live in a higher elevation, where there's less air pressure.  If I, having grown up close to sea level, wanted to climb Mount Everest, I'd spend weeks at the base (which is already really high up) getting acclimated to the lower pressure, and then when I did go up, I'd need supplemental oxygen after a certain elevation.  But people who've lived part way up the mountain their whole lives can climb up without supplemental oxygen, because their bodies have adjusted so well to the lower pressure.


I don't think it's bi-polar because I'm never very energetic or extremly happy. All I want to do is sleep and stay in bed. I'm very irratible and snapy at people for almost no reason. It's effecting my job and social relationships. Is there something I can do or take to help? I have never been to a doctor about this, and it only feels like it's getting worse.HELP!!!!!!!!!!! \n\nside note: I have thought about suicide many times

Sounds a lot like depression. You need to see a dr. and tell him your symptoms. Problem with it is you have no energy so you lay around & the lack of exercise and just getting out of the house makes it continue to progress & get worse. You may need an antidrepressant. (worked for me)


what you do when you are not fat  but you have fat on all the wrong places

Work those buns and move those fat cells around to other places. Start walking. Then start jogging. That is the best and quickest way to move them.


I'm so stressed. I don't get sleep. i'm in a hard school. i have a 65 in all my subjects. please. i'm begging for any suggestions.

1.  Calm down.\n\n2.  Relax and take deep breaths when you feel stressed. \n\n3.  Get a day planner and use it religiously for the first 6 months.  Schedule everything including taking breaks, exercising, going to the movies, schoolwork, etc.  This method will allow you to see where you procrastinate.\n\n4.  Get a buddy to help you keep to your schedule as much as possible (a reminder buddy - not a brutal beat-me-up-if-I-miss-an-appt buddy).\n\n5.  Talk to your school counselor about your class schedule and get a tutor to help you over the hump until you can develop good learning habits.\n\nGood luck!


Jesus, my golden retriever, has an affinity for licking my golf balls.  Is it because they have a certain smell or taste?  Sometimes, if he can't get the golf balls out of the golf bag, Jesus will keep working the bag with his tongue, licking and licking until he is satified and I'm left with a wet spot on my bag. How do I get Jesus to stop licking my balls and bag?

damn for a second there i thought you're a maniac or a disgusting person or something.. well anyways maybe he smells something that he likes so he keeps on licking it


That's just how the game goes. You start off with a selection of either bulbasaur, charmander, or squirtle which will be, naturally, the first three. The rest are listed in accordance of how far you have to go to find them, rarity, date on invention, et cetera.

me and sis are so hating each other why ???i want to do it and tell me how i can play a good prank on her for irritating me                                                                                answer all my q`s

Every time she irritates you tell her: " I love you ! "\n\nThen don't talk to her for a while.\n\nHave in mind that in difficulties, our minds tend to find the closest existing loving creature around to discharge the stress on. That loving creature is  you !


Do you think whites had a part in the movement?  What kind of role did they play in initiating the black power movement?  Any thoughts would be helpful!  thanks!

There is one key figure - but I cannot remember his name.\n\nTry the book about MLK by Claybourne Carson. Type his name into Amazon and you should have a good book to research with.


in los angeles - he needs guidence - i dont know where to go or who to look up.

if he's in high school he can just go to the guidance counsler. I'm sure there's career websites online. I've used them before. He could talk to people of the professions he wants to be in. That always helped for me. Seeing what the career is like upclose, instead of reading about it is better. You could give someone in that field a call,set up a meeting and your son can try different aspects of what he's thinking about being. Find his strong points, decide which careers they would be good for, and go from there. Websites ususally have questionares involving what career is good for you. If he's at a local college, they have career counslers there as well.

I'd prefer specific details or a(few) general picture(s). This is purely for research.

Assuming you mean androgen steroids:  Androgens don't "damage" the testicles in a way that is visible, and in fact don't really damage them at all.  There is significant loss of testicular size, from loss of testosterone-producing tissue in the testes.  Production of testosterone (T) is controlled by sensors, in the testes, that detect how much T is in the blood.  When it drops low, more T is produced in the testes; when its high, the testes reduce production.  When a person injects T, they cause a very high blood T level, and this causes the testes to nearly completely stop producing it.  Thus, over time, the T-producing tissue degenerates and is lost, and the testes shrink.  I dont know of any pictures, but they would just show normal, but small, testes.


One must expend energy to generate free hydrogen. Is the energy value of hydrogen fuel more or less than that required to generate it. If less, where is the advantage?

Consider hydrogen as more of a battery than a fuel source.  Just like all batteries, it takes more energy to produce and charge it than you can get out of it later.  The same is true for coal and oil, except the energy was input millions of years ago, so it's virtually free today...\n\nCurrently some of the cheapest methods of producing hydrogen actually require the use of fossil fuels.  Since the whole point (for many) is to reduce fossil fuel usage, this isn't a very viable option except for helping to cheaply transition to hydrogen.\n\nYou could use a renewable energy source like wind turbines to produce the electricity for electrolysis (splitting water into hydrogen/oxygen), but again there is a lot of waste.  It's far more efficient to just hook the wind turbines to the power grid.  Even that is more expensive than fossil fuels for the time being.\n\nHydrogen fuel cells do seem like a very good idea for vehicles.  It would result in electric cars that can be filled up anywhere without charging for hours between trips.\n\nSo all in all, hydrogen has potential but it is not a solution.  Some other extremely cheap source of energy has to be developed before hydrogen can fill any real-world needs.\n\nEDIT:\n\nI also want to address a couple things in the other answers:\n\n1. Storage of hydrogen has basically been solved.  You don't just compress the gas and put it in a tank.  Instead, it can be chemically bound with lithium nitride, which will store more hydrogen per unit volume than even pure compressed gas.  It is a very weak bond, so it doesn't take much to re-extract the hydrogen.  Undoubtedly there are even better storage mediums to be discovered.\n\n2. Boiling water doesn't produce hydrogen.\n\n3. There is no risk of accidentally creating a hydrogen bomb.  And they have nothing to do with splitting a hydrogen atom.  Hydrogen bombs fuse two or more hydrogen atoms together, which requires temperatures of millions of degrees.  Figure out how to do it at cooler temperatures and win a Nobel Prize. :)

seriously, come on. america was suppose to be fair ofr ALL people. that means no wearing "i like jesus" buttons to work. government officials are supposed to speak for us (and by "us" i mean all people) not just specific groups that they happen to identify with.\n\nanyone DISAGREE?

Absolutely.  It's funny that Christians call it persecution when they are forced to obey the law.  No other religion gets to put up their commandments in the courthouses, but block the Christian 10 commandments suddenly it's persecution!\n\nOur country was not founded on any god, it was founded on the Constitution.  The consitution has an amendment barring Congress from making any law that respects the establishment of religion.\n\n[edit] for the person below who mistakenly thinks the constitution allows establishement of religion:\n\n"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."\n\ncongress cannot do anything that even touches on establishement of religion.


we are trying to figure our how the image works with the mirrors and stiff

The best simple example is the pinhole camera. An light-tight box coated black on the inside to stop reflection, with photographic paper on 1 side and a pin-hole in foil on the other side. Set up the camera and hold it steady for a short period (about a minute, experimentation required) with the pinhole exposed. When you develop the paper you will get a reasonably well focussed image that is inverted. Light from each point on the subect could pass into the camera through only 1 point, the pin-hole, and only land on 1 point of the paper. Light from the left passed through and landed on the right side of the paper and vice-versa.\n\nTo make a camera using lenses and mirrors requires far greater precision as lenses and mirrors focus light. Light from each point of the subject lands on all parts of the lens but converges to a single point again on the film. If the lens is not properly shaped, aligned and distanced from the film, the image will be out of focus. The use of mirrors and lenses allows the image to be recorded the right way around.


I have quite bad hayfever which is eally bad because I have asthma and one follows the other. I am going to the doctors soon to get a hayfever pill, but are there any ways of naturally helping it? Other than staying away from grass and tree pollen.

I am designing a table top display for a conference and need to know if anyone has any advice on how to make it stand out from the rest?

Use your basic visual concepts of groups of 3 or 5, use symmetry, something that draws attention, depending on the type of exhibit..fresh flowers, balloons, lighting. use covered boxes or something to create different levels, so everything isn't flat on the table.


If so, do you have any tips?http://groups.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=groups.groupProfile&groupID=102213514&MyToken=7efcd935-8f87-49a0-a6ff-a5ac2bda7126

This is for anyone else who reads this to.  I have known of people who have made a lot of money doing this, it just depends on what you are looking for.  Also you need to know what the local laws are on this profession, and what you intend to do with whatever you find.  Remember America likes to throw things away, all the time.  Our standard of living is one of the best in the world, and so is our trash, but our trash is also the most deadliest, be careful of what you dive into.  One of the best tips that I can give you is, ask for permission to look through someone's trash, If they say no, it's probably, because there is something in the dumpster, that could harm you, things like broken glass, or they may through out their business records in there, and they don't want anyone going through them.  Another tip is, there are books out on the market, and libraries, on how, and what to look for when dumpster diving.  Good luck and be careful.


http://www.socialismtoday.org/70/science.html\nhttp://economistsview.typepad.com/economistsview/2006/04/scientific_frau.html\n\nthe list is actually huge if you care to research this.\nwhat are the ramifications if only 1% of all scientific data was false.

It depends who the scientists are, what they actually claimed, and what process they went through before they made their claim.\n\nAll credible published scientific papers go through a rigorous peer review process before they are published. This often involves a very careful review of the methodology performed especially looking at the data collection piece. Even still, further testing may subsequently be carried out which cast new light or rejects the findings completely. That's what science is all about. \n\nSometimes scientists or journalists decide to print stuff that has never been peer reviewed and it becomes the overnight sensation. And sometimes, journals make mistakes. And sometimes some scientists make up the data. The problem for fraudulent scientist however is that if they are caught, they are ruined, at least in the eyes of the scientific community. Scientists trade on their reputation first and foremost. \n\nThe saving bit though is that if no-one else in the field can repeat the results, then scientifically the findings are not worth much. Until the findings are independently verified and reviewed then they are treated very sceptically in the scientific community. \n\nThe "cold fusion" issue a few years ago was a good case in point. Nobody was able to verify the results and so from the perspective of the science community, the findings were worthless.


i need this info for a presentation i'm givin'\n\n;-D Duke of Games


he's got long blond hair, blue eyes... i've told him i liked him,but he kind of didn't say enything.....


If it is osmosis then proper explanation required

Even though you can't see it, your skin is covered with its own special oil called sebum (say: see-bum). Sebum is found on the outermost layer of skin. Sebum moistens, or lubricates (say: loo-bruh-kaytes), and protects your skin. It also makes your skin a bit waterproof. That's why water runs off your skin when you wash your hands, instead of soaking it in like a sponge would. \n\nBut staying in water for a long time washes away the sebum. Then, the water can penetrate the outer layer of your skin. This causes your skin to become waterlogged. So how does this lead to wrinkles?  No one is really sure. \n\nSome people think it's because the skin expands to allow extra water inside. The expanded skin ends up looking really wrinkly. Other people think that it's because the skin is tied down to the tissue underneath in certain places. So when the skin is full of water, it swells up (gets puffy), but only in places where it is not tied down, which makes it look wrinkly.

my childrens mother does not pay any rent nor bills and I want her out of my house. How can I do this the legal way? We are NOT a couple.

If she's not on the lease then you'll either 1)be able to call the police to remove her, or 2)Depending on the state and hers/your actions regarding her residence there you'll have to go to court for an eviction notice.\n\nOne thing to remember is that I'm sure she'll use the kids as a pawn in this.  She's the mother of them and she can goto court to prevent you from seeing them/only allowing visitation.  I'd be prepared for a nasty court fight.


And I don't want to hear you don't believe in them and it is a sin....I just want to hear from people that has had an experience and if they thought they were on target, a little of what they told you and what they thought of the reading?

The gentleman I met was dead on target.  He told me things about myself that I did not openly speak of at the time.  I would not necessarily call our conversation a "reading".  We were two people whose paths were simply destined to cross.  He became a very trusted confidante, a teacher, and mentor.


Hi I'am Interested in becoming a commercial pilot but i still ask myself if this is really what i want so iam wondering if you could help me decide or if know someone who is a pilot and could give me any suggestions Thanx !!!!

As an airline pilot, I suggest that you get your Private Pilot certificate, and even your instrument rating, before you commit yourself and large sums of money to pursuing this career. You don't know if you will even like it if you haven't had any experience in the cockpit.\n\nThere is sooooo much to for you to know about and to consider! It couldn't possibly be all covered in this forum.\n\nAs such, I suggest checking out my advice website about getting your PPL and airline pilot careers at- http://www.geocities.com/av8trxx99/FAQ.html\n\nAdditionally, this is a wonderful site created by a Delta Airlines First Officer to help answer questions from aspiring airline pilots-\nhttp://www.jetcareers.com\n\nRead them both over for lots of information you will need to know to make an informed career choice.\n\nFor general good info- http://flightinfo.com\n\n(The last two sites both have message boards.)


how would you rate Proactiv compared to other brands?

Try the Clear Skin Regimen by Acne.org, I set a goal of three months for myself last April and stuck with it, after a month my skin was completely clear, and since I set a goal farther away it was easier to achieve, as I didn't have my hopes up for a quick fix.

I often here libs tell me that the reason we have poor people in the USA is because the government is not spending enough on the war against poverty.  What exactly are the libs have in mine?  You mean, more shelters, schools, free healthcare and housing for them?  And a living wage to support the cost of living?  All sounds hunky dori!  That was tried in the soviet union, canada, and parts of Europe.  What is the result?  Universal healthcare means people die waiting in line, people leave the country to USA for medical attention and best care, strikes, unemployment in the double digits, and overall decline in standard of living.  Go for it, if libs like that, go live in Canada and Europe, and leave this country to us Capitalists and Money Makers.  We won't miss you.

By definition, those on the lowest incomes are poor - this is true for all countries.\n\nHow poor - well, if peoples' income is insufficient to buy the very basic food, shelter, healthcare, education and clothes then those people are in poverty. And most countries would 'step in' at this level to ensure that these basic needs are met and citizens do not die of starvation, primary illness or exposure\n\nHistorically, the US has relied on immigrants arriving and working in poverty as a base and not supported these people as they are not in the truest sense citizens. As the US restricts immigration, more of its own citizens are in poverty. Which then presents a dilemma - does the US let its own citizens die of poverty? Given the TV footage of people requiring 2+ jobs and charity food aid just to survive, the US answer is yes\n\nSo a mixed economy (some socialism, some capitalism) is the preferred model in Europe where the appalling poverty of the post WW2 years are still more than a memory\n\nBTW - France has the best medical care system in the world according to most measures - the US varies between 4th and 10th

SDM stands for Space Division Multiplexing

Space division multiplexing is a means of collating the physical transmission media on a line, within a frequency band or transmission area. \nA transmission line typically comprises multiple wire pairs or fibers, which can be multiplexed individually; a HF transmission path comprises a frequency band, which is subdivided into multiple frequencies, which can also use space division multiplexing. The regional distribution of radio cells is a kind of space division multiplexing as every radio cell serves a region with a specific radio frequency. \nPractical applications of space division multiplexing are found in ISDN as the access line from the subscriber to the local exchange, in primary multiplex connections, or for fanning out fibers, or in radio cell networks.


I worked on Easter sunday, later I was told I wasn't supposed to work that day. I have it documented that I was scheduled that day. The manager said that they had told me not to come in that day and technically they dont have to pay me. I threatend to make a claim with labor board. Is there any truth to what they said? Can they deny me pay?

Well first i have to say ur manager is taking advatage of you. If you work at big company like wall mart or walgreens or CVS its a good thing. First, they have to pay you for that day b/c you worked. First, write a letter detailing the situation and then make four copies and sign on all four of them. first. give on copy to your manager and say that "if i am paid, one letter will go to his boss or (district manager) and other to employee relations. and lastu keep it for our record. \n\nLOOK bro what ever they  say u were schduled on that day so u came to work, theres nothing they can do \nDON't forget--- check if that store gives you overtime pay for working holiday most likely they do \n  i was in a similar situation !!!!\n\n Please respond to me and tell me what happen ok \n\n fsi_million@yahoo.con

I am recently divorced and have a wedding ring that I adore.  It is a 3/4 ct. round solitaire surrounded by 4 small round diamonds, and 2 1/3 ct. trillion sapphires.  Any ideas that I have for resetting it still look like a wedding ring.  I am not opposed to other ideas as well, other than pawning it. I would like to keep it some way...

just keep it as a memento, or you could have the ring part cut and make the jewel part into a pendent.


Just a few chunks that is also clear, I'm concern. Does anyone may know what it is?

Last time, my boy f who is living in a different country talked about marrige. He also mentioned to visit me soon.\nBut after then, he has been silent until now! I think he is serious but What happens to him? What should I do?

Your best bet is to move on, now!  He was probably silent from the time he talked about marriage and visiting you until now, because he had other "coals in the fire" and they didn't work out.  If there was a period of "silence" he was looking for a quicker or better way to get here.  He is using you, from the little bit of info you stated, and believe me, he is not serious!  You should move on and live your life and resolve your feelings for this "fantasy man".  Good luck to you in whatever you decide, because it is your ultimate decision, and believe me, I know letting go will be painful and confusing, but since you asked for advice, I think deep down in your heart you know he is using you.  God Bless.

Help with a small indifinte limit question?\nx+3\n---- \n(x-1)^2(X)\n\nLimit is 1 I get 4/0 as the solution and I was wondering is this Positive Infinity or Undefined. because of the 0

Is this (x + 3)/[x*(x - 1)^2] ? In that case, the limit is as you stated, positive infinity. \nA limit is never undefined; it either exists, or it does not exist. In the special case that it does not exist and it increases without bound or decreases without bound from all approaches, we say the limit is positive or negative infinity respectively.\nAs always, when a limit diverges, look at the behavior of the expression in an arbitrarily small region around the limit point (in this case, x=1). Since the denominator is a square multiplied by x, it is never negative in a sufficiently small neighborhood of 1 (specifically, any neighborhood contained in the interval (0,infinity) ). Similarly, the numerator is never negative in a sufficiently small neighborhood of 1, so the behavior of the whole expression is to diverge to positive infinity, no matter how it is approached.

I have ask a similar question earlier ( Do you think that it is fair that congress can vote on given thesmselves raises? ) So this brings me back to the same question... How can they feel they deserve a raise if they are not showing up to work...??? If WE only showed up to work 40% of the time do you think that we would get a raise or EVEN keep our job?

The problem is we elect these poeple and we need to all pull together and do something about it. All of this has gone to far and it is time to do something about it. VOICE what you have to say to congress!! you can write these people, and everyone needs to start!! It is time for America to come together and get these people to work for us not for what they want!!


He plans to stay until he finds a job. The only time we knew he was in town (he crossed about 5 states to stay with us) was when he was literally on our doorsteps at around 9:00 p.m.

wow. Its rude if you want my opinion.  YOu cant drive five states and just show up!  Obviously driving five states he had a really good idea as to what he was doing.. therefore a little warning would have been nice.  Maybe he thought if he did you would say no so he just showed up.. hence.. its rude.  very rude.

I kinda want to kiss her, but I don't know if she wants to kiss me. I don't want to make her feel really awkward or embarrass her. It's both our first time.

If she's your girlfriend,  it means that she likes you.  I bet she wants to kiss you.   Just go for it next time the two of you are alone.


Part of the downfall of USX,(US Steel) was the little companies specialized in doing high quality, specialized steel and alloys. Bethlehem steel kept wanting to make more and the old fashion way. \nLow tech side. I have heard of steel studs for houses. They are put together like an erector set. Wood business wants to steel more wood and would not have thought of doing that. I worked with a group making new wires and diffusion barriers for semiconductors. Copper is conducts faster, but diffuses more for example. Gold is used on the outside since it doesn't corrode. \nPerhaps a solar, induction furnace to melt down old cars, cans? Non Pt, catalytic converter?\nFind a need, replace something for efficiency,

Once again the "illegal" "Hispanics" are trying to change the country for there liking.


Give 3 differnces and explain, u can give examples of court cases.

Two clauses of the First Amendment concern the relationship of government to religion: the Establishment Clause and the Free Exercise Clause.  Although the clauses were intended by the framers to serve common values, there is some tension between the two.  For example, some people might suggest that providing a military chaplain for troops stationed overseas violates the Establishment Clause, while others might suggest that failing to provide a chaplain violates the Free Exercise Clause rights of the same troops.  I will, however, postpone discussion of how the two clauses ought to be reconciled, and begin with an examination of the meaning of the Establishment Clause. \nAt an absolute minimum, the Establishment Clause was intended to prohibit the federal government from declaring and financially supporting a national religion, such as existed in many other countries at the time of the nation's founding.  It is far less clear whether the Establishment Clause was also intended to prevent the federal government from supporting Christianity in general.  Proponents of a narrow interpretation of the clause point out that the same First Congress that proposed the Bill of Rights also opened its legislative day with prayer and voted to apportion federal dollars to establish Christian missions in the Indian lands.  On the other hand, persons seeing a far broader meaning in the clause point to writings by Thomas Jefferson and James Madison suggesting the need to establish "a wall of separation" between church and state. \n\nSupreme Court interpretation of the Establishment Clause does not begin until 1947 in Everson v Board of Education.  Voting 5 to 4, the Court upheld a state law that reimbursed parents for the cost of busing their children to parochial schools.  (It was clear from the various opinions in Everson that if the state had reimbursed the parochial schools for the cost of providing the transportation, that it would have been found to violate the Establishment Clause.)  Although in his majority opinion Justice Black wrote of the "wall of separation" that the Constitution maintains between church and state, Black viewed the aid in question of serving the state's secular interest in getting kids "safely and expeditiously" to schools.  The case is noteworthy for its extensive discussion of the purposes of the Establishment Clause, and for the fact that all nine justices agree that the clause was intended to do far more than merely prohibit the establishment of a state religion. \n\nSubsequent decisions make clear that a majority of justices on the Supreme Court view "the wall" separating church and state more as a shifting, porous barrier. Small factual differences in cases often produce different outcomes.  For example, in 1948, the Court found that the practice of inviting religious instructors into public schools to give optional religious instruction violates the Establishment Clause.  Then, in the 1952 case of Zorach v Clauson, the Court upheld the practice of giving public school students "release time" so that they could attend religious programs in churches in synagogues.  Writing for the Court in Zorach, Justice Douglas said the Constitution does not require "callous indifference to religion." \n\nThe question of school-sponsored prayer has, of course, proven highly controversial.  In the landmark case of Engel v Vitale in 1962, the Court ruled that New York's practice of beginning school days with a prayer drafted by school officials violated the Establishment Clause.  This is the case, the Court said, whether or not students are given the option of not participating in the prayer.  Following Engel, the Court has faced a whole series of prayer-related cases in the public school context raising issues such a prayer in special circumstances (e.g., graduation ceremonies), periods for silent meditation or silent prayer, and student-initiated prayer.


I'm just bored to death at work and justed something to read based on my favorite games. and thanks ahead of time for helping me out

It depends on if anybody's actually created such a novel. I, myself, have never heard of any, but I'm sure you can find some interesting fan fiction pieces based off of these games.


I mean literally, paranoia from everything, for no reason?

lately, over the past 3 months, I hve been pretty paranoid and panicing about nothing. I am going through a lot of change, new job, moved out of my home town. I am happy and the changes are good, but I think it just threw off my perceptions. Maybe the same thing is happening to you. I wonder if my birth control is messing with me too. It is hormones afterall.

i am a 20 year old girl and i go to college.  i am hit on by girls frequently but almost never by guys.  i am bisexual, and i think i might be sending out some kind of message that i am gay.  maybe i am just more attractive to girls.  i am not sure.  i am a bigger girl but i told that i am very beautiful, and i am very feminine.  maybe guys just hate fat chicks.  any ideas?

im lesbian so untill we talk or meet im not sure maybe ur just that type of girl that women find attractive...ur looks or how you treat ppl ect.  I love pretty eyes and busty girls. Pm me!


I've heard of The DaVinci Code. I know it from the contra book Cracking DaVinci Code. I wanna know about it. So, tell me your opinion!

I agree with Donna. The Da Vinci Code says alot of things about Jesus like he was married and had kids that are historically and biblicaly inaccurate. They are blaphemous and it is unfortunate that such a thing has become so popular. Also remember even though there are people who believe the false facts in the Da Vinci Code to be true they are not true and the book is listed as fiction not historic.


i think my math teacher is like Hitler reincarnated. (is that a word...?) he gives us at least three hours of homework per night and im not even in highschool! no one in my grade ever has time to do anything on vacations or weekends because were all at home working. One time when we were learnig (for the 300th time) about averages he made every single person in my class stand up in front of the rest of the class and tell them their weight! it was horrific. i lied. so did all the other girls. the class average should have been around 105 instead of 80. our school gives out behavior checkpoints as a punishment that ur parents have to sign. (i usually get at least one a year) after a first period assembly i was walking to the trash can before math class had even started and was abou to throw my gum away when mr. smith* gave me a check point. I almost punched him. but i didn't. actually my bff held my arms to my side and made me walk away before i got in more trouble.*name changed

YOU should be arrested for being so dumb.  You also probably need MORE homework...

He was not "mad at God", but he WAS in great distress.\n\nThe language he uses here is that of the LAMENT -- a prayer crying out to God for help by one in great distress (though often ultimately expressing confidence that God will hear and deliver!)  The Psalms contain many of them, including quite a number by DAVID when he was being chased by Saul, etc.   In fact, Jesus here takes the language of one of David's own laments, Psalm 22, in which David speaks of God's faithfulness to him and to rescue his people in the past, but is overwhelmed because 'right now' he can't see any hope.\n\nBut it's much more than Jesus just "quoting from a Psalm of David to prove he is the Messiah".   Indeed, Jesus WAS the Anointed One (God's chosen King), the Son of David, and as such he experienced (in spades!) and fulfilled what his forefather experienced in part, on behalf of his people.\n\nIf you read through the crucifixion account in Matthew (where Jesus speaks these words), you discover SEVERAL echoes of Psalm 22, esp. describing how his enemies mistreat and taunt him (also some echoes from Psalm 69).  \n\nIt is as if Jesus as the greater Son of David is 're-living' what David experienced -- only in a FULLER way, because while David was in these situations threatened with death and rescued from it, Jesus actually DID die and THEN his Father answered his cries by raising him up from OUT of the grave  (compare Hebrews 5:7).\n\nThis idea of David's words & experiences being reflected in Jesus, but in a FULLER way, is reflected elsewwhere in the New Testament.  A favorite example of mine -- in his Pentecost sermon Peter cites Psalm 16 (a psalm of David), but points out that the words point to resurrection and that this was NOT fulfilled with David, but pointed forward to Jesus.\n\nAlso note that Jesus himself KNEW how difficult this death would be --not simply the physical suffering, but the SHAME and public abandonment (being hanged on a tree marked one as under God's CURSE!  Galatians 3:13, from Deuteronomy 21:13).  \nIn this regard, note how the crucifixion story, following Psalm 22, emphasizes the MOCKING of the enemies who think they have triumphed over him and see his suffering as a sign of God's rejection  ("let him deliver him if he delights in him" implies that God does NOT delight in Jesus or he would not be there)\n\nMore than that, Jesus prayed in the Garden for his Father, if possible, to spare him drinking from this CUP.  This shows not only that he knew, but that he understood what was about to be happening to be the experience of God's own wrath and rejection.  You see, the "cup of God's wrath" was an important Old Testament image of God's judgment (Psalm 75:18, Jeremiah 25:15, etc) and that is what Jesus was facing.\n\n-------------\n\nBut note that this is not the end of the "Psalm 22 story". David went on to express confidence that God WOULD hear him and deliver him and that he would declare to all what God had done.    And even in Jesus' distress we should see the same ultimate hope, amidst his agony.  (In fact, Luke shows us this by citing Jesus' FINAL words, from another psalm of David [Psalm 31], as he entrusts himself to God --"Into your hands I commit my spirit.")   And the writer of Hebrews cites the end of Psalm 22 of Jesus, saying that he DID go on to declare God's praise among his brothers [Hebrews 2:12 - compare Romans 15:9, quoting from Psalm 18:49]


Our rights just don’t go on forever. They have to stop somewhere. What are your thoughts on this?

A good rule of thumb is you have rights to just about any action that doesn't impinge upon the rights of others. Example: you have the right to smoke but not where other people are that don't want to be exposed to second hand smoke, like a restaurant.


I dont want to be her friend anymore, SHe is rude, mean to my BF( *! !who is her COUSIN! ! * ) I HATE HER! I just want to be nice to her when I get rid of her!

If she has been your best friend for a long time, I would encourage you to not make a hasty decision. You can find friends (and even boyfriends) anywhere, but best friends take years to grow. You should do your best to save this friendship before calling it quits.\n\nMy advice is talk to her before you take the final step of "de-friending" her. Explain to her that you've valued her friendship, but that her current behavior isn't excusable. Confront her about her rudeness, and don't be afraid to name specific times and places where she acted like a bee-yotch. She apparently USED to act nice, because otherwise you never would have been friends with her. Remind her of those days. Finally, tell her (in very clear terms) that if she doesn't start acting right, you want nothing to do with her.\n\nThis puts all of the pressure on her, see? If she changes her evil ways, then you've kept your best friend and are better off than before. If she doesn't, at least it isn't your fault that the friendship ended. Anyway, I wish you the best of luck. Hopefully your friend will see the light, but if not... at least the blame will be on her head, not yours.


i cant tell her how much i love her. because:\n1. she's from a wealthy family whereas im from a middle class family.\n2. we follow different religions.\n3. we promised that we r friends for ever. i dont want to ruin our friendship. but i cant stop loving her.\n4. if i propose her and she says "yes". she'll have to lead a painful life with me. because she will not be able to adjust herself with my middle-class lifestyle. moreover, the society will not accept our relationship because we follow different religions. And if she says 'no' i'll have to die young. and i mean it.\nMY QUES IS: AM I HOPELESS?

Hi!\n\nYou seem to be making up all the reaons you need for it not to work out. have you tried listing the positive side of things? If you cant find any, maybe it's best to be friends. This doesnt mean you have to end your life! If it's meant to be it will, if it isnt... just remember there is porobably someone out there waiting for you.\n\nHang in there! take care. *hugs*


Mainly i'M young and broke too young to do much (12) ONLY I want to help people

You can help out your neighbors.  And maybe make a few bucks at the same time.  Mow the lawn, pull weeds, walk someone's dog, clean up the dog poop in back yard, babysit, wash cars....  The last two years I wish I could find a teenager to help me out when I needed it.  And I would've gladly paid for the help.  \n\nMake some sort of flyer to pass out to the neighbors to "advertise".


i dont think so it is so rediculas what there doing most of us cant give them money for there (opec) greed

My answer is the Honeymooners with Cedric the Entertainer and Mike Epps! What an AWFUL movie!! That was the first time that I seriously considered asking for my money back at the concierge desk.

How to lose a guy on 10 days...\n\nhow to lose my money on 2 hours.


I now suppose to pay $300 while my Uncle still gets to pay only $150!!!!  I pay ALL the utilties and now $300.  My uncle pays for nothing ELSE.  So basically my Dad had me supposrting his Brother and mooching off me.

Even if you don't have a lease you still have some renters rights.  Do you have proof that you have been paying rent? Like copies of checks?  Your rights are different depending on what state you are in, but here in California lease or no lease I think it's 60 days notice.\n\nLegal action is very costly though, I'd recommend just finding a better place.


and ofcourse i take some medicines for my astma


i have already read through the rules twice and played ball for 12 years. I have no major responsibilities so moving is no problem.

There are two schools that you must attend to become a professional umpire.  They begin usually the fitsrt full week in January and go for 5 weeks.  They are both located in Florida.  One is the Harry Wendlestedt School and the other is Jim Evans Academy of Professional Umpiring.  For college you should find a local high school or summer league association and branch out from there.  Most Junior Colleges use high school guys with experience.  The upper divisions usually use umpires that have attended pro school and didn't make it, or guys with lots of years and experience.


They'll just keep putting the prices up because they know that companies and individuals have no option but to pay.  It's what's heppened here in the UK where gas is now more than $7.50 a gallon and demand is still rising.\n\nThere won't be fuel rationing unless there's an actual shortage of fuel and that doesn't seem likely.\n\nI can only speak for the UK when I say that there has been fuel rationing - during the war and during the oil crisis of the early 1970's.


there is this really hott guy in my music class but he sits on the other side of the room and i cant figure out how to get him to notice me. i have caught him looking my way but i cant tell if he's looking at me or the girl that sits next to me. i want to get to know him because he seems like an intelligent person who likes to have fun and i would love to have fun with him. we share the same interests in music (i am a music major so that's important to me haha) and we also know the same people so at a party somewhere im sure i would run into him i just havent yet. so how can i get him to want to know about me or at least talk to me more?

something you can do is make him notice you by sayin something smart in class, since he is intelligent, you might catch his eye and focuz on you a bit more. Ask him for something, a pen a paper, or some help in an assignement, even if you already know the answer. Also start a conversation about the class, and then introduce yourself and he will do likewise, just have a bit of courage, but let him do the work, just give him a little quick start on that, if he don't pick it up, sweetie he's not interested or he's playing hard to get, but i'm pretty sure that he will be interested in you. good luck, if you need more help, just e-mail me east_side_outlaw2003@yahoo.com

I maen I see it on T.V. all the time but has anyone ever known anybody that was really into it?

Witchcraft is exactly the same as prayer.  Wanting something and taking action (saying words or lighting a candle etc) to try to bring what you want into manifestation.  It's not quite so dramatic or magic as you see on tv.

You are not one in a million sorry.

The German actor who played Hitler, I don't recall his name but, he was very convincing. Talking about vegetarian cooking and german shepherds one minute then aryan rhetoric the next.  He could be so gentle and violently infuriated so sporadically.  Great movie though, I don't condone national socialism by the way just like good movies and characters.

yes, it was great. my favourite part was when the officer actually went to be executed and he said "Im here to be shot" great stuff.

my sister needs help with her project and i need to know how to get info about them.

(www.google.com)\n(www.wikipedia.com)\n\nHere the site in sources, I looked starfishes up in google and this is one of the search sites it came up with.\n\nPut this info below in your own words because this info is from copywright google:\n\nThe Class Asteroidea ("star form") includes animals commonly called starfish or sea stars.  Most forms have a flattened and flexible body with a varying number (often five) arms, or rays, arranged around a central disc. The oral surface (the side with the mouth) faces the substrate.  The "top side" (aboral surface) contains the anus and the entrance to the water-vascular systems called a madreporite.  Water enters the madreporite and is delivered through a system of canals to the tube feet, which are equipped with suckers that can adhere to the substrate or their prey (often bivalves).  Although beautiful, some starfish are regarded as serious pests to the oyster, clam and mussel industry, and the crown-of-thorns starfish (Acanthaster planci) can severely damage Pacific coral reefs by its grazing activities (i.e. feeding on the coral polyps). \n\n\nGood luck


I am really curious. I mean I constantly talk to myself or think but these are in words. How do deaf people talk to themselves/thing without even knowing a word?

"Without even knowing a word". Reread what you said and really ask yourself, do you honestly assume that deaf people do not know the written language?   Do you really think they stay at home throughout their entire childhood years not learning how to read, write, learn math, science, history, and so on like you do too? Do you think that they can learn all those things without reading the words in the textbooks? Regardless of the fact that some deaf people sign only in ASL, we all still have to learn English anyways in order to read and write and get an education. The real truth is that deaf people are BILINGUAL. Many learn both ASL and English. (Some only learn English and never ASL if they grew up in the oral method which is myself.) \n\nThe mind is not only limited to sign language. It can communicate in the written language as well. The mind does not need the vocal cords in order to think thoughts in words like a spoken language. It varies among deaf people. One would probably like signing to themselves when they think and talk to themselves. I've seen it occur. I am sure that for some, they sign to themselves in their minds or use a mixture of both words and signs. Some may mostly use words in an an expression of "Deaf English" which is not as perfect as English based on the sounds that we do not hear.\n\nI'll give you an example, I'm sure one who only signs strictly in ASL mainly would probably think "me store" or "me need store" if they're thinking about going to the store because that is how you say it in ASL. You would think "I need to go to the store". I always think in English like you do because that is my main mode of communication and expression. Even though I may be fluent in ASL, but I do not think in sign.\n\nI do not learn new words auditorally like you do. I learn them by reading it first and then learning how to pronounce it. Either someone would tell me how to pronounce it or I would look it up in the dictionary and it would describe the pronunciation. However, if I have no idea how it is properly pronounced, I just do my best to guess it. I'm pretty good at guessing the pronunciations because I love reading and have been speaking all my life. I've always been very good at English than the average person. So my mind would speak the words that it guesses what it would sound like.


I have noticed that a lot of people will answer a question that has nothing to do with the questions. I understand this is a area to ask questions about religion and people are passionate about their beliefs but does that mean you can't read the whole question.

no it does not mean that..most people feel that they might not have time or patience to read a full question..wich is kind of silly if you ask me because if they don't want to read full questions then don't reply to them lol or maybe I am just crazy...as far a the religion thing ..it is a touchy subject for most so people may dance around an answer before giving it just out of fear I suppose.


if soldiers want to go SF do units have rights to retain the soldier. what if the soldier is short on time and doesn't meet the lifecycle time.

It's up to the CO and maybe the BCN if they want you to go. Upon graduation, SF soldiers are normally promoted to E-5, so they have the right to retain you if they don't think that you are ready to be a NCO. Age requiremtnes, funding issues, available slots are also factors that will weigh in on your chance of getting the school.\n\nDid you enlist under the 18x option? If so, then I believe you have the right to attend the school after a sufficient TIS. If not, then it is a commander's decision.


I want to gather data with Labview and display it in a Flash movie. How can I do this?

I know more about LabVIEW than Flash.  Are you aware of LabVIEW's web server capability?  It is possible to have LabVIEW provide the web interface directly.

See the National Instrumenets website for more information...\nhttp://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/lv/71/lvhelp/Enabling_and_Configuring_t/\n\nIf you must use Flash, you will probably need to dump the data to a file and use Flash to create the movie?

the best source to get answers about tax laws is from the agency you are seeking the answer from. it may be a state law, then seek the state IRS. otherwise if it is a federal rule, contact the federal internal rev. Service.


I have the oportunity to go to medical school overseas BUT that means I will have to abandon a relationship that I value more that life itself. I don't have the personallity that can handle a long distance relationship, so that is not an option and it is imposible for him to migrate as well. Before this issue we seriously talked about marriage after my studies. P.S I am completing a degree in Biology and Psycology so me not going to medical school doesn't mean I'll  have a dismal future.

I think this is an answer only you can give yourself.


So who would win this one? God (meaning Christian/Muslim/Jewish god), Odin, Zues, Ra, all of the Hindu gods put together or Chuck Norris?

Norris would, how dare you belittle him by comparing him to beings less than he!


Ok. I wonder why the US education (pre-K to High School) is so lame and bad and lacks more global/world scope. I am so surprised that a lot of foreign people have a greater level of culture in general than most of the American people (meaning basic education is way better in foreign countries). It is a fact that the US has great graduate and post-graduate schools, but those are for the people that actually have the desire to transcend and improve themselves and do something important in life. The greater % of Americans are just content with a crappy job that pays them $9/hr and watching the manipulated media and stupid NCAA basketball or boring NASCAR. So, is ignorance the way to keep things under control? Lack of food-for-thought the answer to controlling people's minds?

There are many problems that exist with public schools, and there are a variety of reasons.  Parents aren't making their kids learn any discipline or have any discipline about learning, schools are underfunded, teachers are underpaid, (which makes some potentially great teachers choose other fields) lack of community support, exagerated emphasis on standardized testing, etc.  The biggest problem would be apathy from the general public, everyone always thinks that it either isn't their problem or that someone else will fix it. It's like the TV ad with the huge group of people standing around talking about how horrible it is that someone dropped trash 2 feet from the trash can, but no one in the group actually reaches down and picks it up.  Lest you all think I am all talk and no action, I am an 11 year veteran teacher of public high school, and yes, I am still "in the trenches."
