My husband has a recording studio. He and his friend have not had luck with multitrack digital recorders.  The hard drives seem to always go out.  They just lost months worths of work on a Fostex.  So I thought I would help out with their next purchase, but I want this one to last and I want them to be pleased with such a large investment.  Can anyone help.  They do not use computers in their studio so I am looking for the best stand alone multitrack digital recorder.

Alesis Adat recorders have been the best ones in my experience. You dont loose the tracks if the unit malfunctions because they are backed up on removable hard drives. Even people that I have worked with who have powermac G5's in their studios have these interfaced to them because of reliability and their extreme usefulness for tracking live shows to be mixed/edited in a studio.\n\n“Adats are a bizillionjillionkathousand (plus infinity) times better then anything else. Including: long walks on the beach, puppies, kittens, good wine, making out with a good looking woman, and kicking your arch nemesis in the face.\n\nThey have more gravitational pull/heat outsource, pretty colors, and poems written about them then the sun does. They can cure cancer, give everyone a job, and elect an efficient congress. Like electricity, they posses powers of magic that are beyond our control and understanding. \n\nYears from now we'll have reality TV shows and documentaries about Adats, the people that use them, and how much they are better then everything else in this world (see first paragraph). Japan already has several animated series about specially trained people that are licensed by the government to use Adats for the powers of good.\n\nOne day... Many thousands of billions of years in the future, long after our civilizations have turned to dust, and the dust has turned into smaller dust, and then that dust has turned into microscopic dust, Aliens will find our Adats and know that we were totally awesome- they'll will create their own Adats and the cycle of outstanding multitrack recorders that are a Kazillion times better then any thing else we have ever known (see first paragraph) will continue.”


in the song " st.jimmy " by green day, at the end of the song\nbillie joe (a.k.a my husband 4 eva!!!) saids something different on the song which is on, the cd " bullet in a bible ", then he does on the cd " american idiot " \nWhat does he say?

he's my husband, we're married. don't you f*cking wear it out, and on the cd, he says, and don't wear it out.


I am curently learning German and have my exam soon and i have vocabulary sheets and i would like to know know the best way to learn the words and phrases when they are written

Flashcards, repeating the words and their definitions over and over, and writing them down over and over and thinking of their definitions as you write them are some good techniques. Use as many ways to learn them as possible. You need to learn by SEEING, HEARING, VERBALIZING, and WRITING. This will help you whether you are a kinesthetic learner, a visual learner, or an auditory learner. Good luck!


dont gimmie that crap about how i should be doing other things.  Dows anyone know a good proxy site?


And now the black people are protesting with signs saying "IF WE DONT WORK, NOBODY DOES" Uhhhh...............ya know..................thats so wrong, isnt it?

The unemployment rate among blacks is very high. I can see why they are upset.


what is miligmant mean? does it mean she has cancer? and if they remove the breast is the cancer gone?

i'm really sorry to tell you but malignant means that it is cancer.  if she has a lumpectomy (removal of the cancerous lump) or a mastectomy (removal of the whole breast) the cancer will be gone, unless the doctors determine that it has spread or not.  don't worry, my mom had breast cancer about 5 years ago & she had it removed, did chemotheraphy (which is probably what your step-mom will do), & even radiation for extra measures.  she is fine today & even considered a survivor!  but i know how you feel.. always have hope & be strong!  :)  and remember: they're coming out w/new cures & treatments everyday!

a answer...my under standing was that GOD was loving and understanding so why are a lot of his followers so judgemental???hmmmm

I don't think that people understand his message and they take it way out of proportion. I saw a show on TV that says everything in the bible isn't true because back then no one could read or write anyways. Personally, I don't believe in the whole crock of it.


can some one explain why the size of atoms increses as you move down a group in the periodic table and decrese as you moce dsown accross a period

As you go down, the electrons occupy energy levels whose energy is greater. That is, they are farther away from the nucleus. For example an element in period 6 has its outtermost electrons in the n=6 energy level. These electrons have a greater potential energy than those in the n=2 level because they are farther away from the nucleus. This is similar to an object that is higher up: It has a greater gravitational potential energy. The size of the atom increases because as more electrons are present in an atom, the more energy levels they fill. The outtermost occupied energy level of an atom is what determines size.


There's this girl that I really like in one of my classes.  what should i do to win her heart? how should i ask her out? id appreciate it if you are answering that you have had experience with this stuff before.  Your kindness is greatly appreciated.

Ask her can you have a quick word alone. Tell her that you are a bit nervous but if you dont tell her whats on your mind, you may regret it forever. (she will apriciate you for having the bottle to do and say this).  Tell her that you realy like her and it would be great if she will go out with you OR if she will be your girl (but dont go over the top). It would be nice to get a positve response, but be prepared for a negative one. DO NOT worry about a negative response as this may stop you taking action. And besides you will get over it in a few hours. Make a decision, do it, or dont do it. ASAP.


I weigh 270lbs and i want to loose weith and all, but people everywhere i go judge me for my apperance alone.

You know what, sweetie?  This world is so focused on the outward appearance that it is a darn shame.  We are who we are and God made us this way.  Unfortunately people feed on Hollywood and glamor.  There are those out here that don't judge on looks...it's what's inside that really matters.  We are all children of God....if you are happy, then who cares!  AND.......\n\nThe response before mine....that life.....was made by someone who has no regard for feelings and has no business even responding.  RUDE.....you should be turned in and not allowed to be in this space with answers like that!\n\nYou, my 270lb. friend, take care and God bless.  The weather is so nice, take walks at lunch...that might help!


I realize that both of these organizations play an important role in defending the rights of gays and lesbians but I am curious as to public opinion.

They're different organizations in terms of focus. PFLAG is support for families. GLAAD tracks media representations of the LGBT community. Can't really compare, as both have an important role to play.


G-D isn't any quicker to right than GOD, why not write it correctly.\n\nIs it something like X-mas,  meaning that they didn't like the word Christ so they tood it out.

Writing "G_d" is a practice based on the 3rd commandment ("You shall not take the name of YHWH [probably to be pronounced 'Yahweh,' traditionally ' translated as 'the LORD'] your God in vain.") But why and how did this PARTICULAR way of trying to keep the commandment come about?\n\n(In its original context the command likely had, first of all, to not dishonoring God by such behavior as lightly taking OATHS in his name and not keeping them, by extension to speaking or acting "in his name," whether claiming to speak for him, as his representative, or by claiming to follow him, but living in a way that brings dishonor to\nhim.)\n\nBut one significant expression of attempting to guard and honor the sanctity of the divine name (sometimes called the "tetragrammaton" after its four letters: Y-H-W-H) that we find many expressions of after the Babylonian Exile (6th century BC) is in special treatment of the spoken and written name(s) of God, beginning with "YHWH", and at times extending to other names and titles.\n\nWe see it in how the name was written in the scrolls of the Hebrew Bible, as well as in their early Greek translations. After the Babylonian Exile the Jews adopted the Aramaic letter forms in place of their own earlier forms. But among the Dead Sea Scrolls we find Scriptures written in the Aramaic letters, but with the divine name (which in English may be rendered YHWH) written in the older "paleo-Hebrew" script. Many early Greek translations (some as late as the 4th century AD) have the divine name written either in the Hebrew letters, or using Greek letters that LOOK like the Hebrew word. (If read as Greek one would say "Pipi", but there is no evidence such a pronunciation was ever intended.)\n\nAnother way of honoring the name YHWH that grew up at the same time was to avoid SAYING the name by substituting another Hebrew word (for Greek speakers it might be the Greek equivalent). For example, we find references to "the Name". This was at times extended to other divine names. So, for instance, in place of "God" one might say "heaven". We find some reflections of this in the NT, esp. in the gospel of Matthew, who (writing chiefly to JEWISH Christians) ordinarily speaks of the "kingdom of heaven" where other gospels use "kingdom of God".\n\nThe most important substitute was that of the word for "Lord" in place of the name YHWH. The Hebrew word was "ADONAI", Greek speakers used their equivalent, "KYRIOS". In fact, the NT throughout uses "Lord" (kyrios) when quoting OT passages that use the divine name YHWH. (This is important in connection with the claim of Christians that Jesus is divine -- calling him "Lord" was not just honoring him as "Master" but applying the divine name to him.) This practice has continued to be followed in most Scripture translations from the Hebrew, including the use of "the LORD" in most English translations. (Usually small caps are used to indicate that the original used "YHWH" not "Adonay".)\n\nEvidence for the Jewish practice is found in the customs of the Masoretes -- Hebrew scribes who carefully preserved the Hebrew text of Scripture, and added a system of markings, including accents and vowel-markings, to preserve the traditional understanding of the text. In the Masoretic manuscripts of the Hebrew Bible the name YHWH is marked with an unusual set of vowels, which if we tried to pronounce them would yield "Yehowah' [in later English, Jehovah"]. But that is not what they intended. Rather they marked the word with the vowels from "Adonay" to indicate that THIS was the word to be spoken when you came to the divine name.\n\nThe form "G_d" imitates this scribal practice of leaving out the original vowel sounds (to indicate what one is NOT s

I've never heard of that...that seems kinda weird. I was thinking about moving there but it would only be myself and 1 other unrelated person (My fiance) so I guess I would be in the clear! =)

Believe it or not most people are not happy with the jobs they have, and they wish things could be different at some point of their lives.\n\nHow satisfied are you and what do you do? Thing that you like the most!

I used to be one of those people who was not happy with my job. I worked in the corporate world and that life just was not for me. So one day I walked away from and decided to pursue my passion which was singing. It worked out. Today I am an entertain - not a big name but I make a living. I love my job. I live to go out on stages and get that applause after I know I have done a good job. I have met a lot of my favorite bands and have opened for some pretty big names. This is the life.


If i have a girlfriend, and then i go and do somthing with a guy is that cheatin with her, or is he like another person to go out with so i can have two?

You have to keep in mind that "cheating" is defined by the people involved. A better question would be "does she consider it cheating?" or "Based on what I have told her regarding the status of our relationship (whether or not we are exclusive, or exclusive to the sex of the person - no more than 1 gf or 1 bf, or whatever you all have discussed) would she consider it cheating?" She may or may not. She is who you should be asking, only she can decide. By definition monogamy is one person, not one person - per sex. So if she feels you are in a monogamous relationship, you may need to redefine what your relationship is. Your relationship, both of you could decide, is really where you all do whatever you want with guys however are faithful to each other. It is, what you both can agree that it is. Honesty is always the best policy.

I mean i have heard that there are no stupid questions only stupid answers but i mean come on ppl everyone is entitled to be stupid but some of you are abusing the privilage

if i'm paying in to social security, i damn well better get all of my money when i'm ready to retire..i dont' want to hear it went to someone elses grandpa 10 years ago. wtf is up with that??

Social security was a bad fix for a problem a LONG time ago.  You can thank the new deal for this horrible system we have today.  Your social security that you pay for does not go into some big fund that grows until you retire, instead it is instantly used up to pay for current retirees.  This works as long as you have more working adults than retirees, a situation that might not always be the case. (Especially if we continue to let in illegals, and then give them amnesty, more people able to draw retirement who didn't pay into it, sounds fair to a liberal!)\n\nHow do we reform the system, there are a lot of ways!  But nothing will get done if every time it is even mentioned every single democrat without thinking yells "Stop taking money from the elderly!"  They will oppose any effort at reform in any social program, so I guess our only hope is to stop electing democrats.\n\nNotice I didn't say electing republicans was the answer either, try electing some independents who support your issues! The 2 party system is quite possibly the worst thing to happen to our beautiful democracy.


>> log (x+3) + log (2-x) = 1\n\nlog( a b ) = log( a ) + log ( b ) so\nlog (x + 3) + log (2 - x) = log( (x + 3)(2 - x) ) = 1\n\nlog(e) = 1 if using natural logarithms, log(10) = 1 if using base 10 logarithms\n\nFor the former you have (x + 3)(2 - x) = -(x^2) - x + 6 = e and for the latter you have -(x^2) - x + 6 = 10.  These are both quadratic equations which should be easy to solve.  For natural logarithms you have\n\n-(x^2) - x + 6 = e\nx^2 + x = 6 - e\nx^2 + x + (1/4) = (6 + (1/4) - e) = (25/4) - e\nx^2 + x + (1/4) = (x + (1/2))^2 = (25/4) - e\nx + (1/2) = +/- sqrt( (25/4) - e )\nx = -(1/2) +/- sqrt( (25/4) - e )\n\nAs a final check on suitability of these values, we see that numerically x = 1.379... or x = -2.379... and so both x + 3 and 2 - x are positive for both values of x and so you have no problem taking log( x + 3 ) and log (2 - x) with either value for x.\n\nWith base 10 logarithms, completing the square [i.e., solving the quadratic] would lead to complex roots:\n\n-(x^2) - x + 6 = 10\nx^2 + x = -4\nx^2 + x + (1/4) = -4 + (1/4) = -(15/4)\nx^2 + x + (1/4) = (x + (1/2))^2 = -(15/4)\nx + (1/2) = +/- (1/2)sqrt(15) i\nx = -(1/2) +/- (1/2)sqrt(15) i\n\nSo probably the natural logarithm was intended. :-)\n\n>> 2^x+1 =5^1-2x\n\nIf you mean (2^x) + 1 = (5^1) - 2x then you have\n(2^x) + 1 = 5 - 2x\n(2^x) = 4 - 2x\nand "by inspection" x = 1 is a solution.\n\nIf you graph both y = 2^x and y = 4 - 2x you find only one point of intersection; alternatively, the derivative of 2^x - 4 + 2x is strictly positive, so the function is strictly increasing and continuous and so has a single zero.\n\nEither way x = 1 is the only real solution to\n(2^x) + 1 = (5^1) - 2x\n\nHowever, if you meant\n2^(x + 1) = 5^(1 - 2x)\nthen you get (x + 1) log(2) = (1 - 2x)log(5)\n(log(2) x) + log(2) = log(5) - (2 log(5) x)\n(2 log(5) + log(2)) x = log(5) - log(2)\n(log(5 * 5 * 2)) x = log(5 / 2)\nx log(50) = log(5/2)\nx = log(5/2) / log(50)\n\n>> p = a/1+be^-kt \n\nIf you meant p = a / (1 + b(e^(-kt)))\nthen with all log's to base e you have\n\na = p (1 + b(e^(-kt)))\nb = ((a / p) - 1) (e^(kt))\ne = inverse log of ( log(b) - log((a / p) - 1) ) / (kt)\nk = - (1/t) log(((a / p) - 1) / b)\np = a / (1 + b(e^(-kt)))\nt = - (1/k) log(((a / p) - 1) / b)


It's my spring break and I ate so much. \n\nI can't fit into anything.\n\nWhat do I do?

Walking or jogging would help a bit... \n\nAnd I'm not sure if it's healthy, but whenever I feel like I gained a lot of weight and I want to stop it, I try to drink at least 2 glasses of water before each meal to trick my stomach into "thinking" that I'm full, that way I won't eat a lot... It does work.\n\nJust don't do it habitually.


I'm doing a paper on son of sam and need more background info such as military, childhood, relationships, etc..

David Richard Berkowitz (born June 1, 1953 in Brooklyn, New York), better known by his nickname Son of Sam, is an infamous serial killer who killed six people and wounded several others in the late 1970s. His given name was Richard David Falco; Berkowitz was the name of his adoptive parents. His birth parents were Betty Broder, who grew up into a poor Jewish family, and Joseph Kleinman, with whom Broder had an affair while still married to her husband, Tony Falco [1]. When Broder told Kleinman that she was pregnant, he told her to get rid of the baby.

I am a junior in high school and this girl and I have been friends since we were little. Earlier this year she started to talk to me more and more as the year went on. So I decided to ask her to go to lunch with me, and she wanted to put it off until later and would apologize the next day for not being able to go with. So i decided to ask her if she wanted to the movie that night and she said she was "busy" and would apologize later for not going with. At a school dance i asked if she wanted to just be "friends" and she agreed. Now after that she wont even initiate the conversation anymore, I have to now. I was wondering what the problem is because she is not as social to me anymore. And i still have feelings for her.

i'm a junior in highschool experiencing almost the samething. i need help to.


I am training to be a teachers aide. I am doing a paper on Special needs - module 2 Demonstrate knowledge of strategies of working with children with special needs and the role of the Teacher Aide. One of the questions is asking to provide information on Modelling correct responses A) what is it? B) Why it could be useful. I am stumped on this one question is there anyone that can help. Thanks

Modeling correct responses is more of an art than a science. It is showing a student how to take newly mastered skills, and sequence them correctly to be able to solve more complex problems or create more complex products.\n\nThis is where you show the student how to reason through things by doing it yourself on a sample item. I am about to do it for you now, for this question...\n\nWhat are the small steps you need to take to make the big step (answering the assignment)? Most skills that are taken for granted by regular ed expectations are really packages of smaller steps that most people take naturally.\n\nThis can be most easily demonstrated in regrouping in math, although you can break things down (task analyze) for ANY skill. This assumes that the student has learned single digit computation and place value, not just as rote practice, but with understanding of the concepts behind it...imagine that single digit addition and place value concepts have been modeled repeatedly, practiced in a guided format (the student does it with the teacher maintaining the thought sequence for the student..."talking" him/her through it), practiced independently with some re-teaching as needed, and practiced independently and accurately for confidence and speed.\n\nSolve 86 + 49.  First you must know how to add the 6 and the 9 (counting up on Touch Math or tallies or fingers, memorizing the fact, etc.). If you use counting up, you must know which number to start on, how many to count up, etc. If you have memorized the fact, you must have drilled it and practiced it until it comes quickly.  Then you must understand place value...that the 5 in the 15 belongs in the ones place in the answer area because it is 5 ones, and the 1 belongs in the work area tens column to be added because it is really a 10, not a 1. Then you must know to add your tens (80 + 40 = 120)...8 + 4 = 12 with the 2 in the tens column and the 1 in the hundreds.\n\nWhen you model a correct response, you take a sample item, and solve it out loud for them. So you would solve while talking yourself through it. When modeling how to pre-write, rough draft, proofread, and final copy a longer writing assignment, I've worked my way through both my wall whiteboards three times in one session. I have the students remain engaged by asking them for input for content at every step, and I award points for catching me out on errors.\n\nNow, you need to relate this back to your professor's lectures, your reading assignments, and your own thoughts. Put it in your own words.


what should I expect to experience in the air force basic training?\n1. what drills are there?\n2. is there a "hell week"\n3 what kind of foods are there to eat in Basic?\n4. any other things I should know?

You get used to the food. Have to eat fast as you not have long, though you can always get more to eat if there is time. Up early and have a Bic Lighter to burn strings off your "Pickle Suit". Have to keep Everything in it's place for inspection. Hide the Shaving Razor you use and keep an unused one for inspection. Soap Dish clean so do not use soap and have Dry Clean Soap Dish, wash with your shampoo. Learn the little things/Short cuts to keep inspection cool. Pay Attention to how the Bed Made the First night as you will have to make it back the same tomorrow. "Woolly Boogers" have to be captured and disposed of. NEVER volunteer for anything and only talk if they ask, bring attention to yourself with little jokes and you will get their attention. LOL! Some is class room study, learning about chain of command, ranks who to Salute and How. Some Exercise, setups, push up that kind of stuff. Learn to shoot a gun, work as a team, sneak to the Bowling ally. Most everything you buy when you get there. The Bags we brought and clothes we wore went into a locked closet never to be seen again until we left for Training School. March everywhere. That some of it. Just make it through, be tough. You can do it and then the Tech School gets a little more slack and then when you get to your Permanent Base it get pretty fun. Like a regular job.


My parents are selling their house to buy another closer to me.  They have good equity in their house and are making a profit too.  They are thinking of paying off their credit cards ( to the tune of $60,000) and then using what is left as their downpayment on the new house.  This will make their mortage payment higher, but they won't be paying the credit cards each month like they do now.   They wondered if this was a smart thing to do or should they put as much as possible down on a new house? My friend told them not to close any of their credit cards either, and my friend suggested maybe paying off the cards that are charging the most interest and leaving some owned money on the cards---not to pay them to zero.  Maybe someone here can suggest what is best all the way around for them at this time.

The answer to this question depends on a lot of circumstances that are specific to your parents, so no one will be able to give you THE correct answer.\n\nThat being said, there are still things to consider:\n\nSuppose your parents owe $100,000 on their current house and $60,000 in credit card debt. Let's assume that's all of their debt - a total of $160,000. Some of that debt is being repaid at a mortgage rate (what that number is depends on when they took out this mortgage), some of that debt is being repaid at credit card rates (again, these differ depending on the cards). \n\nFor the sake of argument, let's say that the mortgage rate is 6 percent and the credit card rate is 14 percent. Without doing the math (which would require a whole new set of assumptions about the term of repayment, etc.), I think it's easy to understand that repaying a loan at 6 percent is "cheaper" than repaying a loan at 14 percent. (Remember, the "cost" of a loan is really how much interest you'll pay during the repayment period).\n\nNow suppose they take the same $160,000 debt and refinance it, but now, all of the $160,000 is borrowed at 6.5% interest, rather than some at 6 and some at 14. Again, it should be apparent that the "cost" of paying back the $160,000 is "cheaper" at 6.5 percent than it was at 6 and 14.\n\n(Remember, however, that the sale and purchase of homes are associated with significant closing costs. In my area, closing costs average about 3 percent of the value of the transaction for buyers and maybe 1.5 or 2 percent for sellers. Since your parents are both selling and buying, they'll face closing costs on both transactions, and the sum total of these costs will be a significant amount.)\n\nAs for your question about closing credit cards - Credit worthiness (your ability to borrow) is based on your credit history. Banks and other lenders are notoriously reluctant to lend money to people who do not already have credit from other lenders. Part of what goes into their analysis is your ratio between credit available to you, and credit actually being used. \n\nYou might think that lenders would prefer to lend money to people who don't have any other outstanding debts, but in reality, it's the other way around. Having an established credit history, using those cards frequently, carrying a reasonable balance, and scrupulously paying them back on a month-to-month basis are all big plusses when it comes to borrowing. \n\nAnother thing that may surprise you is that lenders are more interested in how you are managing your money right now - and not AS interested in your past payment history. The fact that your parents maintained balances for many years and paid them off is not as powerful a "recommendation" for future credit as the cards and balances that they have at the time they apply for more.\n\nIn other words, it's good advice not to close out all of your credit cards. Pay off balances on cards that have the highest interest rates (they're costing you the most), and keep paying off those lower interest cards on a monthly basis.\n\nRemember - this is just generic advice - your parents may need to retain more liquidity with their money, because of their own unique circumstances (age, health, needs of the children, etc.). Real estate has been a tremendous investment for many years, but it's notoriously non-liquid, meaning it takes a lot of time and a lot of expense to get equity out of a home. Other investments (stocks, bank accounts, etc) may have lesser returns, but provide much faster access to money when an emergency arises.\n\nDefinitely speak to a financial advisor who knows your parents' unique circumstances before committing to any particular plan of action.\n\nBest of luck to you and your parents!


It seems, at least to many Conservatives on here (not all), that if you're not rich, then you have no value as a person... they always call the poor lazy... I've known many a poor person that worker harder than any rich person I know... maybe they just aren't greedy?\n\nMoney doesn't make you happy and it seems like many of them think the more they have, the happier they will be?\n\nIt's nice to have security with money... but it doesn't seem to be about that to many on here... it's about power... and that's my biggest problem I guess... they think it's a game and that other people's lives are games...

Yes.\n\nThis administrations sole goal is to make millionaires richer.  Republicans don’t seem to be aware of the chain reaction caused by neglecting the needy, but they end up paying for this neglect with higher crime rates, paying higher medical costs, and paying for higher prison populations.  They appear to be oblivious of the repercussions of having a society with a wide gap between poverty and wealth.\n\nThey tend to be less realistic.  They live their lives in a box; not looking outside of the box to get the big picture.  As long as them and their children have good health care, plenty of food, good educations and a comfortable living, they don’t see anything wrong.\n\nThis narrow view of the world causes America’s needy children to be neglected, people to go without proper housing, educations and health care.  In the long run they pay for this neglect, but can’t see beyond the box.\n\nAs for morality, I’ve never seen so much hypocrisy.  On one hand they claim to be such great Christians while on the other they ignore the teachings of Jesus which commanded we must take care of our neighbor, feed the hungry, and care for the sick.\n\nRepublicans live in a fantasy world and when their house gets broken into or they have to pay outrages hospital bills, they wonder why these things happen.


If you found out you have a long lost twin what would you do?


yeah i think a man who shaves both can be very sexy, best of all there is no sound as the you spit out the hair lol


The last decade was the 90's, so I am wondering what the common name or names would be for this decade spanning 2000-2009.  In 14 years we will have the 20's, but as for the next few years, how do we refer to our current time and place.  I have heard something in reference to the "auts," meaning zero.

I have heard it as oughts. Which is the term for zeros.\nIt's a tough one to name, along with the tens. All the other decades are easy.\nI suppose the tens decade might work, but that's not that great. How about the first decade then the second? Then happily we go into the thirties.

Say you were digging to the middle of the earth and you got past the middle would you fall upside down?

You wouldn't fall anywhere, you'd be stuck in the middle.  Gravity would be too strong for you to dig away from the center.


I've recently watched a cnn program,where a reporter was asking people on the streets about other countries,and there was also a large-size world map in front of them...but most of them still could not find France or Australia or etc... on that map...Are they really THAT much ignorant and illiterat or what??And how come???Wasn't America the most powerful country on the globe?What kind of a power is that????Is there any excuse for those Americans for being that much ignorant???

Beacause Americans are too lazy to learn something interesting in a classroom and are always playing video games all day long and watching too much garbage on TV!!!! I for one was born here in the U.S. know what part of the world a country is located and I'm bilingual so that makes me smarter than the one-dimensional, one language American that wants to be ignorant and dumb. Most Americans don't even know how to read a gas gauge on a car when it runs out empty on them.


give me your experienc or someone u know? this is serious please give serious answers thank you for your help i don't have it, i just want to know for a reason which i wont mension

These are all good recommendations. I do recommend consulting a physician to determine 1. if you do have high blood pressure, 2. what is the cause, 3. what are your treatment options, and 4. do you need to be screened for heart disease and high cholesterol. Sometimes high blood pressure can simply be treated with what is called lifestyle modifications: exercise, low fat diet, reduce salt intake, etc. However, sometimes a medication or two need to be added to bring the blood pressure down. Hypertension can be sign of other things: heart diseae, sleep apnea, kidney disease, etc, and therefore further evaluation may be necessary.


I have been scamed!!!, I tryed to get a personal loan from these people. First they wanted $800.00 because they needed security for the loan, so I sent it,second they need another $800.00 for insurance money, third they needed another $800.00 because the said I didn't send the whole security payment , I asked why I needed this, They said I was high risk because I had filed bankrupcty in 2000. Well I thought it made since. So I waited for my loan to arrive after the first week past I got real pissed, so I called them they said thet made a mistake and cut the wrong amount for the check and they caught it's mistake before they were to send it to me. Now i am really pissed I knew right then and there I had been scamed. I asked them to refund the whole amount of payments including the fees which came to$2609.97 USD I have been calling them on there 800 number , and they have put my account on hold until futher notice, I can not reach anyone, and I very much like to report this. Thanks

I have many Hispanic friends that absolutely hate that they are "grouped" as Caucasians.  They insist that they are not.  But when I ask what they consider themselves they respond "Hispanic".  That's not a race.  \n\nNow if you go to the Carribean you find Blacks that are Hispanic too.  The nice admirable thing is most Hispanics don't care until they have some sort of American influence. \n\nAmerica, particular whites seems to be obsessed with race.  So what's the deal Hispanic people??

Hispanic is a race just like Caucasians or African American.We do not like getting grouped with Americans cuz were Hispanic.

im a huge bjork fan, shes a unique singer, but like many geniues or eccentric peeple she seems whats the word not all there. i hear the lyrics to some of her songs, she sounds so depressed. like any celeb. they can be bothered by the paparazzi, but she seriously has issues i think.\nr u a bjork fan, y or y not.

I think she is great.  She has been performing many years now, it is bound to take it's toll.  Also, she had a stalker a few years back, that's enough to drive someone bonkers.  She seems in touch with herself, so no, she's not crazy, just off the beaten path.

Can someone tell me what is going on. And will it be bad enough where I have to keep my children home from school that day?

I'm 22 and I just got my top braces off after having them on for 15 months...I'm graduating on May 11th...what's something good and safe to whiten my teeth??...Thanks for you help!!

Don't worry about stupid ppl with their stupid answers (The first answer on here)!!  The best thing to gently whiten your teeth would be topol( a whitening toothpaste).  It works great for smokers, coffee drinkers, etc. and it is very gentle, i use it every day and my teeth are so much more whiter! Congratulations on your Graduation!!!!!


I'd like to make business name cards. I find lots of websites where I can design my business cards online and order. Has anybody tried ordering business card online? Are they trustworthy?

Yes, there are sites that will do that, but if the cost is significantly less than a local print shop, chances are there will be advertising on the back of the card. Check it out carefully ... Nothing says "cheap" more than passing out a card that has advertising for someone else on it.


As individuals we have rights. We have a right to privacy, and this include our DNA. Besides why would the government want to keep track of something so personal for everyone in the country. \n\nBesides, the government has a bad track record of cover ups and basically not playing above the board, how could they (the government)expect us (he people) to trust them with such sensitive information. As far AS I AM CONCERNED I BELIEVE THEY WOULD DO SOMETHING UNETHICAL WITH THE INFORMATION, LIKE CLONING TO BREED SOME SORT OF GOD KNOWS WHAT. THAT'S WHY THEY SHOULD NOT BE PRIVY TO EVERYTHING. ITS LIKE INVITING STRANGERS INTO YOUR BEDROOM, OR IN THIS CASE, YOUR BODY. ITS JUST NOT A GOOD IDEA!

How can you love someone that you know is willing to be unfaithful to his wife?  Most likely he was only using you to fill a void that might not being answered by his wife or he just is a player that got married and you are just another play thing.  Either way bad choice.


i have a 16 of them on my computer and 14 of them r each 64 kb. What are they? If they have no purpose, then can i delete them? what are other types of files that have no purpose on a computer but take up space and can be deleted? (For instance, a list of file endings including but not limited to '.dmp' or '.exe' would b helpful)

Every time your system or an application crashes on your computer, a minidump file is generated that contains a snapshot of your memory at the time of the crash.\n\nIt's completely safe to delete.  It's a file that is created when fatal errors occur, the file can be used for trouble shooting and debugging purposes.


i have ran ad aware and spybot search and destroy and i have ran a malware removal tool from microsoft and i still am having no luck can soemone help me

First use the antivirus and antispyware software you have to run a full system scan. Do it in the windows safe mode. (AVG and avast antivirus softwares are free while a 6 month free trial for Norton is available at pack.google.com. Lavasoft's free Ad-Aware is the best antispyware to my knowledge. Also Windows Defender from Microsoft is good enough for real-time protection). This should identify the problem and most probably would solve it as well. However, if the antivirus software is unable to delete the malware, go to Norton's website and search for the name of the malware detected. Their must be some instructions posted to tackle the problem. You might have to delete the system restore points and as well delete the particular registry entries manually if the virus still regenerates on subsequent boot up of the machine. Good Luck.\n\nPS. If you are still having trouble, use Hijack This and copy the log it generates and post it on some tech help forum. I am sure there will be plenty of people ready to help you out.\n\n_____________________________________________________\n\nAnd please after excorsizing your lost pc, do give Firefox internet browser a try. It is free, more secure, highly customizable (using extensions) and a better overall internet experience.

Okay i told my crush that i liked her and she said. Her life is complicated now because she just stopped talking to some guy that i didnt know she was talkin to.  Then she said that she doesnt want me to think differntly of her because she thinks our friendship could blossom in the future.  She also says that she wants to do more things now then we did before and she ended by saying that she thanked me for opening up because it is a hard thing to do and she said it felt good to know someone was thinking of her that way.  We have talked everyday since and tonight we are going to hangout again. I guess my question is does she just want to be friends or is she trying to see if we are compatible?

It sounds like a little of both. Sounds like she is not sure what she wants.  I little like me.

well I am 20 yrs old and I've moved to a new place a few months ago. I used to have many female friends at the place where I used to live previously, but never had a girlfriend. There are a lot of girls quite close to me who proudly say that I am their best friend, or very close friend and stuff. But I think I need a girlfriend depirately.. coz I find myself very lonely in life. I dont even have any friend really over here. I can be very humourous and friendly, & i'm a pretty decent guy. which means I am really good to girls.. but I'm not kinda able to form a romantic atmosphere when with a girl. what shud i do about it ?

you need some time to adjust..things will change..give it time.

Please tell me someone else in this world has seen or even heard of the Fox show Arrested Development!! If you have seen it, what do you think of it? If you like it, who's your fav. character??

It is one of my all time favorite shows. Another prime example of a good show being yanked off the air. However, there is still hope. Showtime wants to air at least one, if not two more full entire seasons.\n\nFavorite characters? Have to be either Tobias or Buster. Hell, both of them! I love Tobias for his awkwardness and Buster for his damnable innocence that borders on extremely creepy. Both of them definitely need to see a psychologist, and no, not an analrapist. \n\nNo touching!\n\nAddition: To the person who responded below me, how can people dislike something they have never watched? The ratings were never high enough to use that justification for the show being cancelled. You also cannot blame ONE magazine for killing a show. The show was one of the best comedies of the decade, if not the best, and we're only half done! People did not watch it because a) Fox hardly advertised it, b) it was always put up against higher rated shows on other channels and c) intelligent comedies VERY rarely do well, especially when they are not properly promoted.


what are your plans that day? A long siesta?

They are going to accomplish two things:  Prove exactly how irrelevant and insignificant illegal immigration is to our society and to the economy, and will wake up the slipping giant that is middle America.  This is a hugely ill-conceived idea.  The leaders of LULAC/MeCHA/Aztlan should be jailed just for ill-serving the ignorant poor people they are hurting.\n\nMy plans?  Work, my friend.  Someone's got to pay the taxes that give illegal immigrants free education, healthcare, school lunches, food stamps, subsidized housing, college tuition, oh, and I almost forgot, the ability to help them free up some cash to Moneygram back to Mexico.

Any other blokes out there think that the Queen was a bit of a fox when she was younger?  I definately do.  However, I think Princess Margaret was foxier.  She was like the Emma Peel of the Royal Family.  Wow!  She was gorgeous!

Well, I think I am pretty.  \n\nOh, wait!  You mean the queen of England.  LOL\n\nWell, I thing Queen Elizabeth II was pretty when she was younger.  She looked a lot like Prince Charles in the face.  Now she just looks like herself.  \n\nPrincess Margaret was very pretty, I thought.


My company develops software in Washington State and is starting up a development group in Mexico City.  I've wanted to see Central America for quite some time and have toyed with the idea of putting in for a transfer.  Can anyone tell me what the high-tech and IT community is like there?  Also, what is life in Mexico City and vicinity like.  I'm not so much interested in that immediate area as such but rather being in a place where it is tolerable to live and is in relatively close proximity to the rest of Central America.  (I'm particularly interested in Costa Rica.)

Mexico is not close to Costa Rica .... and Mexico City government uses(ed) Linux servers. Most desktops are pirated XP

It's almost as if some people's brain space is so limited that the more book smarts they pick up, the more common sense they lose.

Yes, some people are "book smart," but greatly lacking in common sense.  They just don't realize that there is more to life than what's on the books, and this causes a hinderence of personal relations with other people.

My family has no idea I'm a lesbian.  I don't look like the stereotypical version of what they think homosexual women look like (neither does my girlfriend).  We spend a lot of time together, in fact all of our time together, and still they don't know.  I know I'm sort of chickening out, but I kind of wanted them to just figure it out.  Unfortunately they haven't.  What's the best way to tell them.  (And yes, several members of my family are incredibly religious.)

one day when your around your family and she is leaving kiss her good bye on the mouth and go from there if she is who you want to be with dont let your familys opionion affect your decision if they love you they will support you and if they dont dont worry about it

i'm a 16-year-old girl and i've never been in a relationship before. i've never been kissed, etc. i've noticed, though, that i think in my past i have had crushes on some of my girl friends. like i'd think about them a lot during the day and when i did my stomach would knot.\nthere's this one girl who i know is straight but we're really good friends. she's been in my dreams a lot recently and i've even imagined kissing her. i also get a heightened sense whenever we hug or she looks me in the eye and stuff like that. is it possible to know if i'm bi or lesbian even if i've never been in a relationship?\nand if i am, any suggestions on how to meet girls in the same situation? cause all my friends are straight. plus, i go to an all-girls high school so supposedly there are lesbians there but i can never tell who..\nthanks.

It depends, do the feelings such as the 'knot in your stomach', come from a curiosity to explore the beautiful familiarities of your bodies, or does it seem to stem from an emotional, love, reaction.\nI personally experienced my first same sex encounter when I was 19 years old. I am now 44. I had several since. I do not consider myself bisexual or homosexual. I consider myself straight, because I could not fall 'in love' with another woman. I couldn't see myself 'marrying' another woman either. What I did have were sensual experiences with women friends. Listen to your head, your heart. Are you merely appreciating this girl's beauty, and are fantasizing sharing intimacy or do your feelings run more deep.


i want to get a job in china to teach undergradute medical students. so please help me to get this.

This would be difficult as the Chinese are not very open to foreigners.  I knew a Congolese doctor work at Zhongshan Hospital in Guangzhou, who was the most intelligent guy I ever met, but he could not renew his contact because the Chinese he was looking after did not want to consult a black doctor.\nCount on at least tens years study of Chinese characters so that you are able to write a basic prescription.\nTry asking on http://groups.yahoo.com/group/teflchinalife-UNMODERATED/ for some other expert expat opinions.


If the Median Salary for a Zoologyst is 55K what would the highest salary for this type of profession be? and why?

The others are correct.  The median tells you only what point is in the middle of the ordered set of salaries.  It tells you nothing about the shape of the distribution, the min, the max, or anything else descriptibe about the data.\n\nThe following sets of numbers all have the same median value:\n\nA) 1 2 3 55,000 55,000, 55,000, 55,000\nB) 55,000, 55,000, 55,000 55,000 55,000, 55,000, 55,000\nC) 0 55,000, 1,234,567,890

If you have, could you describe how? Try to determine how one can tear his ligament on his leg.

You can tear a ligament quite easily buddy, Its like stretching a rubber band and then pulling so much it just snaps.. You will find a quite suttle pain or a tightness but after a few days it will get back to normal, try a nice warm bath and then rub some massage oil into affected area..


I met him, and it felt like I knew him forever. We did everything togather - restaurants, walking in the park, fitness, movies. Everythign happened on the 3rd day - and it was great. He was nice and carying. Will this relationship last? Or when a relationship starts from sex - it doesn't last?

It depends on the people not just about having sex right away...but you still should have waited.


we can all find passion in something or someone ... but if the passion is first can we have love in that... or should we hae love that is just all passion and comes together at once?

He is still in his sophomore year in Highschool. Should he be allowed to pitch 90-100 pitches if he feels like it? He's broken his (pitching) collarbone twice in football and he's been cleared to play baseball by a doctor, I am just concerned that this could hurt his arm in the long run.

Look at it from a practical point of view ... He has to be able to throw without pain during the game, warm ups and after he cools down. \n\nHave you had him throw simulated games to see where his tolerance is? Start by simulating an inning or two ... have him throw in sets of 8  and then intervals of four ... (Eight pitches to four batters) have him sit down for 8 to 10 minutes between sets, this will let the muscles and connective tissue rest ... check range of motion before you let him take the mound. Any pain, discoloration, swelling or lack of control tells you something.\n\nAnd remind the future Rodger Clements that it's about longevity not just the next at bat ...


I went back this morning to check up on some clues that other people had told me about, and a lot of them were gone and replace with new ones. Some of the major ones that I noticed where the bandage on Gil's hand was gone and was Cath. black eye and the bruse on Nicks head. Now there is blood on Nicks neck and the face in the back window is MUCH clearer... it almost looks like Gils... Also there is a card in Gregs pocket that wasn't there and the question mark that was on his shirt his now gone... I was just wondering if anyone else noticed this?

A lot of changes -- scalpel in Doc Robbins' hand, something in Greg's pocket, slot machines - one missing one of the rolling jackpot things, snakes on top, 3 of something maybe hearts, Nick with cut on his neck, figures in window (some say is maybe Sofia and someone else), on stool beside Catherine says GG + ?, Catherine has an ellaborate necklace on plus tears in her jacket and maybe on the thigh of her pants plus black eye, police badge in dead guy's pocket,  and a lot of other ones that people are saying they see but I haven't yet.  To see things clear, right click on them and zoom in.  Helps a little bit!

is it leagle for the cop to pull you over for tags and then surch the car? when just being pulled over for tag and they were shown the tempary but still gave a ticket  for no tags and surched the car ( but found nothing)

The officers cannot conduct a search without a warrant or without probable cause, unless there are specific special circumstances.\n\nGenerally, the police can pull you over for any suspicion.  Expired tags, no front plates, broken taillight, etc.  If they then "smell" something suspicious (i.e., pot or alcohol), they can then search your car under suspicion of possession or DUI.  If they place you under arrest, they can basically search every inch of your car.\n\nIf they ask if they can search your car YOU HAVE A RIGHT TO SAY NO!!!!!  If you consent to a search, they have the ability to search your entire car.\n\nIf they simply give you a ticket and search your car without consent, they have violated your rights.  If they find any evidence in your car, it cannot be used against you in court.  If they found nothing or no charges were placed against you, you should still make a complait to the police department they were from. It will go in their file and it may help someone else (or you) defend themself in the future.

I am wondering if the tanning business is a good direction for me to head in? Does anyone think they have too many tanning salons in their area? Do you think they are nonsense?

I think a tanning business will be real good in any locations. Especially if you offer membership fee for a month. specially if you have a hair salon, nail salon in their because a lot of youn girls, ladies will come for all of these plus the tanning salon. Remember you want your price to be lower than someone else that has a tanning salon in the area. Plus have different ideas to get your clients to come. Don't matter if there are 3 in your area just be creative and different and cheaper # 1 goal.


my hair is long yet i don't have much ideas on how to tie it in different styles

you must first gather the hair as you are making a normal pony tail. then you take a long piece from underneath. the width of the piece should be about 1/2-1 inch. seperate piece from pony tail. pull pony tail tightly together with a strong,thin pony tail holder. then wrap loose piece of hair around the pony tail holder. hold hair in place w/ a bobby pin. while wrapping hair around pony tail holder pull firmly.  Remember: practice makes perfect

I used the coolEditPro(effect---amplitude---amplify),and then save the wmv file.but It prompts "file destroyed" when I open the wmv file with windows media player.  did I make some errors? or how to increase the volume of video?thanks

Why would you ever want to increase the volume.  The name of the game is to decrease volume with compression and other tools.  I have never heard of this program, and suggest you look for another.  Windows Media will play any supported file no matter how big or small.  You shouldn't have to increase anything to get it to work.

well first you have to be extremely pathetic and have no goals in life but acceptance of immature peers.  Then you have to be an extreme coward to not be able to do anything or stick up for yourself without your Homiez.  Then take a trip to a womens prison and talk to some of them doing 20+ years and ask them if its still cool.  Think that covers it up.  But don't worry I'm sure as soon as you get your first sentencing you'll be crying like a lil wanksta in no time.


My mom has been an alcholic since i was 7, and now i am 14 almost 15. She is mentally ill from the alcohal. I told her I wouldn't ever talk to her until she got into an AAA program. Me, thinking that was nearly impossible thought I would never have to talk to her again. Now, she is in one, and I still dont want to talk to her. Is this wrong? What should I do about it?

u should be proud of her to actaully admitting her illness and getting help!! there is nothing better then that.. u should stand by her side ans support her.. she is ur mom..and the one and only mom..maybes she wasnt the best in the past to u..but she is willing to change.JUST FOR YOU!!! u should support her..cuz now she is feeling more depressed just becuase u dont wanna talk to herr..and she is going through a very tough time now..

please give me a link to go to where i can find steps on burning the dvd, or instructions of your own that can help me out.........i need HELP, fast!

DVDs store upto 9000MB of data. CDs store only up to 800MB data. So all the data on a DVD wont fit on a CD.\nYou have to remove some of the data or compress the data. You will loose some video quality doing this.  To play the movie you'll need something that can read the compressed video format you end up using.\nIf you're using CDs then look for something to turn DVD to VCD (videoCD).\nIf you're playing CDs from PC then go for DivX.


Expecting you to know the structure of DNA...\nthe enigmatic enzyme known as DinB DNA polymerase is specialized for proficient and accurate replication of a particular kind of damaged DNA.\nDNA is assaulted daily by toxic chemicals, metabolic byproducts, sunlight, and other forms of radiation. Most of the nicks and dings are quickly fixed by the cell's fleet of precision DNA repair processes, which can surgically excise and replace a faulty section. \nBut sometimes a damaged bit of DNA slips through unrepaired. A faulty nucleotide—the basic constituent of DNA—can stall the temperamental DNA replication machinery as it unwinds and copies the genome in dividing cells. In humans, uncorrected DNA errors passed along to the new daughter cells can lead to cancer. \n\nWhen DNA integrity is at stake, a family of proteins known as translesion DNA polymerases comes to the rescue. They cannot actually repair a damaged strand of DNA, but they can smooth over the problem by inserting a nucleotide opposite the damaged partner, so the DNA replication machinery can finish duplicating the chromosome despite the damaged DNA. This trick is usually referred to as a DNA damage tolerance mechanism.\nThe molecular building blocks of DNA are adenine, cytosine, guanine, thymine - A, C, G, and T in the shorthand of molecular biology. In different combinations, they make up the genes that code for the proteins that carry out the routine and complex tasks necessary for life.\nthe enzyme DinB is exceptionally skilled at copying over a particular kind of damage to the G nucleotide. When the main DNA replication machinery stalls at the damaged G, the DinB translesion polymerase recognizes the G and adds its chemical partner, C, to form the correct base pair in the new chromosome.\na single change in the amino acids that make up DinB will strip it of its unique talent and change it into an ordinary polymerase.


what are trying to say?  is any one know that what is love?  i'm not sure what you are asking, but if you want to know what love is i can tell you.  love is an emotional connection that you share with a person.  it's how you show them how you feel about them through actions not words.

Generally speaking if your relationship didn't work before it won't work in round 2.

The December 26 earthquake and tsunami devastated the lives of millions of people, leaving a wake of destruction from Asia to Africa. With more than 250,000 people dead and 1.5 million people homeless and without work, the tsunami ranks as one of the worst disasters in modern history, with the cost falling predominantly on the poorest people in the affected countries. Losses are estimated to total more than US$6 billion - with houses and private businesses representing the bulk of these damages by world bank.\n\nThere are number of maps,reports, fact sheets of UN agencies, NGOs, international organizations about 2004 tsunami disaster in the following links. \n\nhttp://www.alertnet.org/ and\nhttp://www.reliefweb.int/rw/dbc.nsf/doc100?OpenForm\n\nEm-Dat Disaster Database might be also helpful about figures related to tsunami such as human toll, number of affected people,etc.\n\nhttp://www.em-dat.net


Do you think it's fair or right for the government to be listening to your calls and watching everything you do on the internet?

Is it fair no, but if someone was plotting another 9/11 and a family member of yours was in the place they were going to blow up, wouldnt you want them to do that.  I would rather have them monitor those things, and besides the government picks up on buzz words and phrases once that buzz phrase is said then the government can listen in.  It is not a total loss of privacy.  It is resonabile and logical, but not fair.

Having status symbols does not necessarily equate to actual success.  Success is different for each person -- success is designing a life that YOU find fulfilling.  Status symbols are things that society considers emblematic of success -- such as having a fancy car, nice house, exotic vacations, or a beautiful spouse.


for most of the daily life situations and calculations, it is taken to be less than 1.it is also said that when two interacting surfaces are made highly smooth,friction coeffficient becomes very large.can someone please explain this fact?

When the calculations were set up for determining coefficient of friction 1 was set as the upper limit. There can be no coefficient larger than 1. Highly smooth surfaces of the same shape (for example, two rectangular blocks) are in almost perfect contact with each other so that almost every molecule of one is in direct contact with every molecule of the other (that's a bit of an exaggeration unless the surfaces are micropolished, but it will serve). The extremely large surface area in contact produces enormous frictional resistance to sliding movement. It helps to understand this if you can make the distinction between smooth and slick. Think for example about trying to slide one heavy glass plate over another without any lubrication between them. They "stick" to each other like glue.


It says there that Judas only followed the order of Jesus Christ...and prior to that he has no intention to betray Him. Also according to that Gospel, that Judas was the instrument in order to fulfill the prophecy. Whjat do you think?

Think about it.  Satan is supposed to be pretty crafty, but, also pretty violent, yet, God is all loving right?  Well, read your Bible again, it is not "fairly" violent, it is very violent.  But, Christians will paint the violence white, even when most of the violence is from their own God.  I would love to think there is an "all loving God", but, I want nothing to do with the violent nature of the God in the Bible, and I refuse to paint his violence white.  And no, I will not kill my son, just because a God told me to.  \n\nI wonder if the bible is a trick to get people to worship the wrong God, like Satan, or just some mean Egyptian Pharoah, long after his death.  The ultimate con.

Yes... I mean no....I mean, I don't know.  Questioning one's own belief system is essential to spiritual growth and evolution.  All the ones that answered "no" so quickly are the one's that, in my mind, need to get a reality check.  Don't be so sure!  Take a look around, there are more questions than answers and there are more opinions around the globe than we can count.  So, be okay to question your faith and the very existence of "god".  You may come back full circle, or you may not.  But at least you can say that you've looked outside the narrow little box that most people live in.\n\nI'm sure that if god exists and assuming that god gave you a logical mind to work with, god wouldn't mind if you questioned and explored those issues.  I haven't seen anybody struck down to a pillar of salt lately!  So free your mind, go exploring!

I agree, but even though Houston has no OL Reggie Bush would still put together a 1000 rushing yard and 500 recieving yard season.

How likely is the u.s. to go into another depression? What could happen to the other countries that we do business with and owe money to? Would they forgive our debt?

We won't go into a depression.  We could go into a recession though, a really bad one.  If the economy ever took that type of tailspin again (I assume you are referring to the great depression of the 1930's), it would be devastating to our country!  It would also affect the world economy is a big way!!  Back in the 1930's, the U.S. nor other countries, did business together (loaning money) the way they do now...so it is nearly impossible to compare what happened then to what would happen now...but it would be very very bad.  Interest rates could shoot WAY up...at recent as the 1980's interest rate for even home mortgages were in the middle teens...what do you think would happen to the average American that carries mortgages, huge credit card debt, etc....the interest on these loans alone would way surpass what people are paying right now on principle and interest.  Many people would lose EVERYTHING!  But as in the 30's, the folks who have lived conservatively and have money saved would make out like bandits.  Their money would be accruing interest at those high interest rates and all the items that are repossessed would be able to be purchased at a fraction of their worth.

Personally I think a president should be able to get a blow job to releive the stress of a hard day, but perjusry is another thing.  There are many people in prison for lying to a Grand jury.

And that's where Bubba belongs.  As far as democrats thinking he was impeached for sex?  The operative word in that last sentence was 'thinking', or in this case, the lack of.\nLet me quote Winston Churchill when asked his opinion between liberals and conservatives.  This may not be word for word, and I quote:  "If you're twenty years old and not a liberal, you have no heart.  If you're forty years old and not a conservative, you have no brain."


if your family member, friend, loved one was in a hospital sick and knew that the staff hated thier jobs, had no sympathy for the patients? This seems to be a common thing... and become very bothersome to me as a healthcare worker, who actually does care about the patients, not the paycheck.

I worked in a hospital for years and after years of trying to change exactly what you are talking about - I had to quit.  I couldn't find a way to separate what I was dealing with at the hospital (negligent doctors, uncaring nurses, etc.) from the rest of my life.  I actually started having a lot of stress-related health problems, which is ironic because now I ended up on the other side of that system and it's just as demeaning and wrong as I thought it was.  \n\nWhat I do now is not to bad mouth hospitals, because obviously we need them, but to try to kind of coach people about how to "protect" and "advocate for" themselves at the hospital.  I tell them never go to the hospital alone.  Have someone taking notes on everything you are told.  There are no dumb questions - ask them all until you get an answer that you understand and contact the patient relations and or social services department for additional assistance.\n\nI want to add, and this should go without saying, that there are excellent, caring people in every aspect of the hospital, I was just speaking to this question and the fact that we have shared similar experiences.\n\nI'm sorry I don't have more to offer as a solution.  I'm still mad that I quit in a way because I don't think of myself as a quitter and I know I was helping people.  It was just that I, personally, couldn't find a way not to get so upset about it.  \n\nTake care and try to hang in there...

Or do you think that the stupid republicans and religious nuts will succeed in writing discrimination into the constitution?

in my world yes, seems fair. but i don't 'connect' with the 'outside' world often


I hear "Let's agree to disagree" when the two debating sides come to an impasse.  Or is the first one to say that admitting defeat?

When one person says "Let's agree to disagree" he is proposing a truce as it were, a resolution in which each side agrees that they will no longer try to convince the other, while continuing to hold opposing opinions.\n\nIf you thinking not winning = losing, then it constitutes a loss.  But I think a peace treaty such is not a loss -- and I certainly think proposing to do so is not a loss.  If the other person does not agree, then the person who proposed it can argue on with equal vigor.  In most casees, it is no sign of weakness to offer a truce.


DCF methods value the underlying cash flows that a group of assets produce, discounted by the risk of those cash flows.  While this method is very helpful for determining the intrinsic value of the assets or business, it has a few shortcomings.  First, this method relies heavily on assumptions for cash flows, risks, and terminal values.  The output you receive can only be as good as the assumptions you use.  Many times, there are important items omitted or bad assumptions that cause the DCF to be wrong.  Second, the market prices things in such a way that the DCF is not always the best method.  For example, before the tech bubble burst, DCFs were showing values of tech stock that were orders of magnitute less than the relative or market valuations.  Third, since a business is a portfolio of projects, the options (to expand, abandon, special strategic options, etc) may not be taken into account with the DCF and to do so is often very difficult.  Since real options are extremely difficult to price, many analysts exclude them from their calculations, understating the true value of the firm.  There are many many more shortcomings with DCF methods.\n\nDespite these shortcomings, the DCF is a very useful tool.  The trick is to understand the limitations of DCF methology and to incorporate it into a larger valuation frame work.  Typically the DCF will understate value while relative valuation overstates the value.  The differential between the two values can be used to approximate the relevance of the DCF.  If the DCF is significantly different than the relative value, you may want to check your assumptions (and maybe solve for input values that force the output to be similar to the relative value and determine if the new inputs are reasonable).  \n\nIf you are reading Valuation by Copeland, Kohler, and Murrin (published by McKenzey and Company), you have a really good text.  If not, pick up a copy of the 3rd edition.  It is really a good professional's guide to appropriate application of DCF techniques.  I know that Intel Capital uses that text as the format for its DCFs.

The only thing that will make you lose body fat is exercise so get into it and stick with it. Drinking water as a replacement to sugary drinks will help prevent you putting fat back on but diet is important too, cut out all simple sugars.


I love camping!  Not the park your car 10 feet from camp, but the "let's pack up some sheeit and hike out into the woods for a couple nights" camping.  Nature rocks!


ive been on dates where i've slept with the guy the first night. i didnt feel pressured to, i wanted to, but is that still concidered "easy"? i dont want to get labeled a slut, i just enjoy sex. what can i do?

You may get labeled but who cares, it is doing what you want that makes you who you are. \nMy opinion, if I have sex to early in a relationship, I find it hard to find other things in the relationship.  It takes away my want to get to know the person better.


2 years since craniotomy done.peg feed is being given.toma has been done. understands the commands like open ur mouth.wiht the help of 3, he can walk n climb. bbath is being given in the bathroom n he makes use of the commode . he passes urine when command is given.looks at people talking to him from person to person

This person needs to be evaluated by a Speech therapist/pathologist. they have certain tests they can administer to find out if it is safe for the person to even begin to take anything by mouth. the danger with swallowing problems is that the person can aspirate food or liquids into the lungs and develop pneumonia.


I noticed last night i was really starting to get some wrinkles under my eyes so i used my moms oil of olay under eye cream to rid puffyness and fine lines... well this morning i wake up and my eyes are swollen underneath i have to be at work in hours in this won't do! i there something i can use around the house to help?

Piles cream (seriously) this is what a lot of models do, it flattens out any wrinkles and reduces puffiness instantly!  I use it and it works, only a thin layer and you don't use the same tube on your butt if you get piles!
