i was told a long time ago, that the toilets above the equator swirl to the right, and the ones south of the equator swirl to the left, meaning opposite... Is this true?

It's not true. The phenomenon is true but you would need massive amounts of water to see it and the toilet , sink and bathtub doesn't suffice.


i think it's ring worms. the dr's say no. my wife thinks it's heat rash. how can i find out?

could be eczema or psoriasis.  Consult a dermatologist.


I think my Printer's Cartridge is used up too quickly.

You can configure your printer to print using the economy mode. This mode forces the printer to print lighter shades, therefore conserving the cartridge. \nYou can also save the toner by having users configure the printer to print by using the 'Normal' or 'Draft' quality mode as default. Avoid unnecessary wasted space in the margins: you should also configure the 'Page Size' and margins from your printer drive such that they match the type of paper you use and so that the text is printed on as much of the surface of the paper as is comfortably possible.


if you can help me..im lookin for the police station and the court house telephone numbers and address in logos nigeria 23401 i have looked but cant find them... hope you can help me in my search ..thank you.. kathy

That's pretty easy, Logos doesn't exist.\nAnd of course, you meant Lagos, well, i suggest you call the airport and ask them.


I am forty, I have bipolar disorder and I sleep walk.\nThe problem is I eat in my sleep and I get evil indigestion.\nThe only way to stop the sleep walking seems to be antipsychotic drugs, which I cannot take and raise my kids or work. I am looking for non drug stragedies to stop this behaviour. I am tired of it and my stomache cannot handle it like when I was younger.

Man what the heck are you eating? Its not like you could be fixing five star dinners in your sleep??? Lock the bedroom door? Tie yourself to the bed?


Scientists make science revolve around the theory of evolution, but there isn't definite proof that "we" come from monkeys, all is only speculation. How can they prove it? Ad if they can't how can we prove the oposite?

Darwin's theory of evolution hasn't been proven,in fact most evidence proves otherwise.A lot of scientists don't believe in evolution.There is no more evidence to support Darwin's theoty of evolution today than there was when Darwin came up with the theory.I don't see how anyone could believe in evolution.There isn't enough evidence to support it.Science itself refutes Darwinism.\n\n• According to the theory of evolution, at some time in the distant past there was no life in the universe -- just elements and chemical compounds. Somehow, these chemicals combined and came to life.\n\n• However, scientists don't really know how life came to be. Even Stanley Miller, whose experiments are cited in most biology text books, says that the origin of life is still unknown. The idea that dead material can come to life all by itself is not consistent with scientific observation.\n\n• The leading mathematicians in the century met with some evolutionary biologists and confronted them with the fact that, according to mathematical statistics, the probabilities for a cell or a protein molecule coming into existence were nil. They even constructed a model on a large computer and tried to figure out the possibilities of such a cell ever happening. The result was zero possibility! - Wistar Institute\n\n• Professor Edwin Conklin observed, "The probability of life originating from accident is comparable to the probability of the Unabridged Dictionary resulting from an explosion in a printing shop."\n\n• Under normal circumstances, creatures give birth to the same kind of creatures. It is established scientific fact that like begets like. On rare instances, the DNA in an embryo is damaged, resulting in a mutant child that differs in some respect from its parent. Although a few mutations have been scientifically observed that are beneficial, most mutations produce inferior offspring. For the theory of evolution to be true, there must be a fantastic number of creative mutations that produce new kinds of offspring which are better suited for survival, and therefore are favored by natural selection.\n\n• Darwinists claim that the reptile-to-mammal evolution is well documented. But for reptiles to evolve into mammals at least some of these transformations must have happened: \n• Scales had to have mutated into hair. \n• Breasts had to have evolved from nothing. \n• Externally laid eggs had to evolve into soft-shelled eggs that were nourished by an umbilical cord and placenta in a womb. \n\n• It has never been observed in any laboratory that mutations can cause one species to turn into another. Despite this, evolutionists believe that given enough time, some animals will eventually evolve into other creatures. \n\n• Evolutionists claim that although we have not actually observed these things happening, that does not mean that they are impossible. They say it simply means they are extremely improbable. Evolutionists think the world has been around long enough for all these highly improbable things to happen.\n\n• Sir Fred Hoyle, of Cambridge University stated that statistically the chances of one cell evolving was the same as a tornado passing through a junkyard and giving you a fully functional Boeing 747.\nhttp://www.straight-talk.net/evolution/arguments.shtml\n\n• Scientific evidence casts serious doubts on the theory of evolution, for example:\n\n• The Fossil Record (Updated 3 July, 2005)\nhttp://www.straight-talk.net/evolution/fossil.htm\n\n• Living "Fossils"\nhttp://www.straight-talk.net/evolution/living.htm\n\n• The Cambrian Explosion\nhttp://www.straight-talk.net/evolution/explosion.htm\n\n• New T.Rex Discoveries (Updated 10 June, 2005)\nhttp://www.straight-talk.net/evolution/t-rex.htm\n\n• "Missing Links"\nhttp://www.straight-talk.net/evolution/misslinks.htm


I am a baptist christian and beleive in God. I often refer to my bible and pray daily, BUT I often feel that church is unnecessary. My mom doesn't like that I feel this way. I think church is often a big show. Religion should be about fellowship and faith and I do not think that a building is required to do so.(*I like church, but don't always like going)

Oh yes, they look lovely in pictures, and as backdrops. I don't know if they have a practical purpose though!!!!!


Zabubaboo is a religion, for those who have not followed so far.\n\nTo solve the problem of not having a god but keeping high , impressive people in an influencial position Zabubaboo is going to install Qag's. This is a relative round a bout translation of someone who is "kind of cool but not god-like cool". Bafuudo was the original "God" but as we dont want a god he was ousted, he has since grown a little grumpy.(But remains powerful and wise) Meanie was the first to come up with the idea of our own private (possibly fradulant) island and TV ads, and ,possibly by the picture, install our religious outfits. And Atom seems quite nice, enthuesiastic about peace and all that fuddy stuff, but did threaten a possible war (worryingly). Is there any others who should be added to "Qag"

Yep, absolutely! Omnipresent Atom is a bit tired of having to do everything on her own. Meanie has very practical views, very helpful! As for Bafuudo, watch out, he sounded a bit jealous and vendicative on the other thread. But I'm hoping we'll convince him to be a Qag, as we need him to serve the snacks and drinks in the Zabubabeaven! But we need more Qags, like Zabubangels and Zabubattvas!\nP.S. Don't forget about the brahs


Find the constant of the variable:\ny varies directly with x, and y= 54 when x= 6\nh varies directly with m, and h= 112 when m= 12\n\nCan someone explain this to me?

Direct variation means that the ratio of the two numbers is always the same.  The constant of variation is the number you'd multiply the second number by to get the first.  You find this by dividing the first by the second.\n\nSo for your first problem, the constant of variation is 54/6 or 9.


Does JP Morgan Chase own the company Household finance?

JP Morgan Chase IS NOT affiliated with Household Finance (HFC), nor does JP Morgan Chase own HFC.  That distinction goes to HSBC Group - HSBC bought out Household Finance some time ago.  Here are some links that provide you with additional information.  Good luck...

I have been a Christian for 20 years now and during that time I have had to learn that although I can be passionate for Jesus and stand up for His cause, I cannot show others His love if I am aggressive in doing so!  If we cannot love others and respect those with different beliefs then we don't really know God at all as God is love. Let's not answer enquirers at all if we respond in a bitter way!

Many non christians on this site are rude. And many (both Christian and not) are very nice.


Can Aluminum Chlorohydrate one of the ingredients used in making Anti-persirant deodorant cause cancer?

don't know that one, but i heard it contributes to getting Alzheimers.


No.  Article I, Section 8 of the constitution, discussing the powers of Congress, specifically states "The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defence and general Welfare of the United States; but all Duties, Imposts and Excises shall be uniform throughout the United States..."  with no prohibition on any particulat type of tax, such as an income tax.

What would you do if you have a friend who is in a relationship with a bonafide drug addict? She says that it's love but when someone has an addiction they love nothing but their habit. She is a good person and I just know what to tell her or say to her to make her know that she is better than that. What would you say to her is she enables him to do it by supporting his habit? Please help

Love is a very, very strange thing and probably one of the hardest things to explain sometimes! I think its really nice that you care about your friend's feelings and that you don't want to see her get hurt. Unfortunately though, if your friend really loves this guy she will stay with him no matter what you try to do or say. In fact, she might even start to resent you for interfering in their relationship. The best thing I can advise you to do is just be there for your friend. Give her advice if she has a problem and give her your true opinion if she asks for it. A good friend would tell her to leave this man and that he's a waste of space. A great friend would accept her love for him and support the decision she has made being there to pick up the pieces when it inevitably goes wrong. Good luck.


This has been bugging me for a while. I have heard there is a sport you can win by playing backwards. What is it, if anyone knows?

I belivie a waman as president would be better for every aspect of the Government.A waman would not cause unnessary loss of jobs,lives in war and she would try to litsen to every point of veiw.

A woman as president? let see England hasn't done too bad. If a good woman ran I would vote for her. Any person that is capable of moving the country forward deserves the chance. As for all the people that are condemning Bush, DID YOU VOTE??! because if you didn't you have no right to complain.


do guns no longer leave gun powder residue behind because of how their being made? i can't find anything on internet about it so i need help because that is what cops said when they refused to check her hands.

It depends on the type of firearm. If the pistol has a barrel, then there would be residue. If it is a clip type, there is no way for the powder to come back on the hand.


My friend is a guy, he basically has no one but me to turn to. He called a support hotline tonight that seemed to help a little bit but I doubt it was stop his addiction. What can I say to him? We have dated in the past a little bit and were currently friends. I need advice!!!

LOVE him unconditionally and be there for him 24/7!


If you ask me the best gift for a mother on Mother's day is to give them a free time (their kids being babysit for free) and loads of money and grand dinner with the father (ofcourse)...\n\nIf you are in a store then probably you can give each of them a cool shade free that goes with the dress they purchase.\n\n.:Fishie:.


i see them in my travels to and from work in the cities suburbs and rural areas many poor blacks and hispanics and whites.   what has caused the massive increase in poor  people. when i grew up in america we had to travel to the poor areas to see the poor now the poor are everywhere in america.

Maybe you are just noticing it more.  Unemployment is at its lowest and the "poor" have 12% more money than last year.  \n\nI think welfare has caused much of the problem.  People got used to not working and living on their measly check every month.  It produced a society of poor people.


Or is there a god of pregnancy (maternity)?

You are trying to hard. Think about other things and stop trying to get pregnant that is usually when it happens. My daughter had 3 miscarriages and then she just couldn't get pregnant. After trying for 5 years she just figured she couldn't get pregnant. It was only a couple of months and then she was. She had a beautiful little girl and named her Jazzlyn Rose she thought this would be her only child but she got pregnant one more time when Jazzlyn turned 2 now she has another beautiful little girl named Shalyn Jolie.


I recently was informed that there were black presidents before George Washington and the book "Five Black Presidents" \n\nThe book was published in 1965 by the noted historian J.A. Rogers. Actually only four Presidents of Afrikan ancestry are identified in the book. They are: 1) Thomas Jefferson 2) Andrew Jackson 3) Abraham Lincoln 4) Warren G. Harding\n\nThe 5th was not named in the book at that time. Even though the evidence was strong, at the time of the writing of the book, it was not conclusive that Eisenhower is/was the fifth one.

There have been no Black presidents in our nation's history.


Brandon Routh is the actor who will be playing Superman in the movie coming out this Summer.

How does the Tradagy affect your every day life? Are others that knew the victim affected as well? The closer the person was to the victim affects them more or less?

Yep.  My dad. Gave up on my dream job because I couldn't see myself doing afterwards.  Still fight the nightmares


i want to get rid of mine but everyone tells me not to cause it's become a part of my persona and they think it adds a little something to my look, but when i see one on other people i think "why don't you get it removed?" . i need reassurance

Is it a 'raised mole' or just a spot mole?\n\nI don't think anyone should remove a mole :)  I have a raised mole above my eybrow and I love it - it's a beauty mark and guess what they say about those?  They are sexy to some men, so .. I dunno about you, but I'd keep mine :)


Anyone have any good ideas about party favors and stuff for a butterfly, flower, and hearts theme wedding.

Make molded candies with the melt and mold chips, you can bag them or put them on a stick. Its a lot of work but people like editable favors.  Matchboxes are always nice, I'm sure you could get some printed up.  My mother-in-law made laminated book marks, they were very nice.


well..and eye for an eye would make the hwole world blind..so u temme

Is it hard to do it in the shower? And what if you run out of hot water?

um.. one word- OUCH! shower, pool, its all the same pain game. not fun, not romantic, actually pretty challenging. but if your a guy, no matter what answers you get, we both know you'll try it anyway just to say you did. good luck and lube up. just use a water based lube if your in the pool, you certainly dont wanna leave an oil slick behind!


i want to hear those crazy late nite party stories when everybodu is F***ed up   u know what im talkin about   Best one get 10 big ones

Here is a story I told someone on here recently that wanted a laugh....it usually cracks people up. It is totally true...\n\n\nOne day, my brothers and sister in law were driving down a country road. They were behind a pick up truck for quite a while and noticed he was driving pretty slow. It was really windy out that day, so they just assumed it was an old man driving the truck and he was scared to drive fast in the wind, lol....\n\nanyway, all of the sudden a big gust of wind came and tore the plastic bed liner out of the back of the pickup truck. It goes flying up in the air and was spinning in circles all over the place. They slowed down and just watched it flying in mid air for a good 30 seconds. All of the sudden it went flying toward the ground and ended up hitting this guy on his lawn mower in the back of the head! The poor guy was just out mowing his lawn and all of the sudden something hits him from nowhere! Can you imagine what he was thinking? \n\nJust picturing the whole thing happening is hilarious.\n\nOh, by the way....long story short, the guy was ok.


to me it is kind of mean but at the same time just a little funny


Mine would look like this... if we could pick anyone...\n\nPG = Chauncey Billups\nSG = Kobe\nSF = Lebron\nPF = Garnett\nC = Shaq

Steve Nash is canadian. Nowitski is german.\n\nThere will be no other Dream Team\n\nYour question should read "starting five for the US team"\n\nDream Team\nJordan\nMagic\nBird\nBarkley\nRobinson\n\nI do watch ESPN, but only during football season.  Otherwise it's mostly crap and Stuart Scott going BOOYAH.  If they are still referring to the US team as the Dream Team, they are wrong. Where did US basketball finish last time they went to International competition?


I am more intimate with my wife when I cheat on her. I love my wife and my girlfriends...is that wrong???

first off, thats not polygamy. And unless everything is on the table its not polyamory. What you are doing is cheating unless you have permission from your wife. If you don't have her blessing? You're an idiot playing with dynomite


The earth-sun system is considered conservative that means the net work around the orbit is zero.\nBut the 2nd law of thermodynamics states you cannot obtain work continuously with out paying a Price.

If the net work is zero then there's no price to pay.  You answered your own question.


"good" is so vague if you have joint citizenship you can play for either country and what is "good" is really a personal question.\nFor Example Alex Rodrigez was debating weather to play for America (where he is from) or the Dominican Republic (where hsi parents are from), after some consideration he chose to play for America and some people have been thrilled with thsi and other have been angry, it really all depends on what you think and your prefrences/belifs.


i was operated on first time when i was 7. but apparently the surgery was not a successful one as i'm 22 now and the cyst has recurred. i wonder if i can just leave it and hope that it won't get inflamed again or a surgery is necessary. my surgeon does not seem to be sure.

Sounds like you have some research to do.  This might sound like a dumb question, but are you seeing a specialist?  Maybe you need to see a surgeon who has more experience with this condition?  Here are some sites.  Check them out....\nTreatment may include:\n\nantibiotic medication (to treat the infection)\n\nsurgical removal of the cyst and the thyroglossal duct, called the Sistrunk procedure \nA thyroglossal duct cyst has a small chance of regrowing if small portions of the tissues remain after surgery. Infection of the cyst prior to surgery can make the removal more difficult and increase the chance for regrowth. Always consult your child's physician for more information.  http://www.healthsystem.virginia.edu/uvahealth/peds_ent/thyrgduct.cfm\n\nhttp://www.healthcentral.com/encyclopedia/408/685.html\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thyroglossal_cyst\nhttp://www.dental.mu.edu/oralpath/lesions/thyroglossal/thyroglossal.htm\nhttp://www.ghorayeb.com/Thyroglossal.html\nGood luck to you.....

If the temperature outside is 0(zero) degrees and the weatherman says that it will be twice as cold tomorrow. How cold will it be???

You know that he probably didn't mean this in a quantitative sense.  Twice might have meant relative to temperature from the day before, or relative to the mean temperature for this time of year, ...\n\n\nQuantitatively, the term "twice as cold" needs to be relative to some baseline, the fact that it is 0 degrees currently is immaterial: 0 degF = -18degC = 255 degK, so you can't just multiply the value by '2' or you will get different values (the same value, a colder temperature, and a much higher temperature, respectively).


Uhhh....his movies are somewhat freaky!! And he is a perv!!

I find some of these answers show qite a degree of ignorance,  however we are all entitled to our opinion of anyone else. I would say that it is easy to agree with the sentiments given here but only superficially, His films reflect the human condition from the point of view of everyman, not from some unbeatable hero, they show the hopes fears selfdilusions and insecurities that define the human condition. I find him to be in general a very candind person. some here call him a pedophile but to my knowledge he had a relationship with Mia's adopted daughter he does not go around targeting children willy nilly in order to get pervy sex, He subsequently seperated from Mia and he and the girl in question then lived together, you could say he strayed well off the path but to brand him pedo is a bit over the top, and also what is perverted? look into your own lives and examine your own darkest thoughts there is only a step from thinking and doing a slight change in circumstances could give any of us the chance to live out a dark fantasy 'when you have walked one mile in my brothers moccasins then tell me your opinion of him' (red indian proverb)


i get nausea every single time i'm driving in a car!

I used to have the same problem.  Just try to avoid sitting in the back seat and/or reading or focusing on anything while the car is moving.  If that dosent help there are over-the-counter meds that will do the trick.  Good Luck!

i have a friend with a hole in his upper heart i just want to know what are the effects and what will happen if he doesn't take good care of himself?

The largest effect of having a hole in your heart or Patent Foreamen Ovale is Stroke.  Many people don't even realize that they have a hole in their heart until they have a problem or is picked up by an Md at a physical.  There is a new procedure out now that is well tolerated.  It is called Patent Foreamen Ovale Closure.  It is done by inserting a catheter into the femoral vessel and threading into the heart and then using a device to close the hole.  Most people are just staying overnight in the hospital and going home the next day.

My boyfriend and I have been together for almost 6 months. I really love him and I know that he loves me but im afraid that we are both too young. Im 16 and he's 18 and he's going to college in the fall. Am I too young to be in love?

Yes and no. I would say you are too young because I have "been there done that". Hell at my age I thought I was in love til I realized my ex wasn't "the one". No because there are some relationships that truely can last well into your old age years that start off as young as you are. Trust me you will know when you are in love or lust.

Is there a website where I can find my states labor laws?\nThanks,\nJacquie


I have 3 couches & a dining room table that have plenty of use left in them but don't want to spend money just to get rid of them. Is there a website where I can list the items with, perhaps, my zip code, so anyone who's interested can just come and get them?

there is a site called freecycle.org where you can list your items for free psot it and anyone interested will message back and they will come and pick up the stuff.


***Any details or info would be greatly appreciated**

The first organization (KKK-Ku Klux Klan) was in decline from 1868 to 1870, and was destroyed in the early 1870s by President Ulysses S. Grant's vigorous action under the Civil Rights Act of 1871 (also known as the Ku Klux Klan Act).The second KKK was a deliberate echo of the first, though there was no connection. \nCivil Rights Act of 1871:\nOne of the main reasons behind its passage was to protect southern blacks from that organization by providing a civil remedy for abuses then being committed in the South. \nThe Klan Act was originally passed because Republican governors in the South during Reconstruction were unwilling or unable to act against violence by the Ku Klux Klan. In lynching cases, whites were almost never indicted by all-white coroner's juries, and even when there was an indictment, all-white trial juries were extremely unlikely to vote for conviction. In many states, there were fears that the use of black militiamen would ignite a race war. When Republican governor Holden of North Carolina called out the state militia against the Klan in 1870, the result was a backlash culminating with his impeachment in 1871. Many Southern states had already passed anti-Klan legislation, and, in February 1871, former Union general Benjamin Franklin Butler, a US House of Representatives member from Massachusetts (who was widely reviled by Southern whites), introduced federal legislation modeled on it. Many politicians at the national level professed doubt that the Klan even existed, but the tide was turned in favor of the bill by the governor of South Carolina's appeal for federal troops, and by reports of a riot and massacre in a Meridian, Mississippi courthouse, which a black state representative escaped only by taking to the woods.\n\nIn 1871, President Ulysses S. Grant signed Butler's legislation, the Ku Klux Klan Act.


You've got your facts confused a bit, Ken. The 1980 US Olympic Hockey team never played the NHL All-Stars, but the Soviet team did and thrashed them by a score of 6-0. The US team did, however, play four exhibition games against NHL teams (Minnesota, St. Louis, Atlanta and Washington), losing them all and being outscored by a margin of 24-8. To me, these facts just make the "Miracle on Ice" even that much more of an accomplishment, to say nothing of being perhaps the greatest upset in sports history.


Into a thik drinking glass as well as a very thin wine glass, which is more likely to crack? And Why?

I would say the thick glass. mainly because My roomate has destroyed many beer mugs making tea.  I would assume the reason is because the temperature is hotter on the inside than the outside  and this causes it to break.

I was looking at the system requirents for the iPod Nano and it says I have to have "Adobe Photoshop Album 2.0 or Elements 3.0 or later (recommended)," but I'm not sure if I have that. Do I have to have it? Can I download it for free somewhere? If so, where?

I have an iPod Nano, and I don't have either of those on my computer and it works fine. If you need it, just do a Google search and it may be able to be downloaded for free.

Is it against western,  specially US culture, to keep such a set of parents at home and care for them? If yes, why?

Well, tell me why one parents look after their person, if they are born woth disability, Do you expect the parents to throw the disabled child in the dust bin. Its love that binds the parent to the offspring. They continue to take care.\n\nSimilariliy if you dont have love you may neglect your parent who is effected with cancer. \n\nRemember if you are the same effected person tomorrow in old age, do you also expect your children to abandon you?

If so, what do you sell?  How much income do you make?  Do you make eBay your business, or just a hobby?\n\nI used to sell brand name baby clothes years ago -- but it seems now that eBay is flooded with clothing.  Is there an area on eBay where the products have yet to drowned out the need?

You are correct, Clothing is a BIG business on eBay but you can still make a tiddy profit off it. Try shopping a discounter like TJ Maxx, Ross for Less, Marshalls or whatever it is called in your area for women’s clothes from designers like Ralph Lauren, BCBG or Tommy Hilfiger. Often times you can find, for example, a woman’s shirt that sells in the mall for $50 on sale for $10. Odds are if you put it on eBay for $25, you'd sell it. The customer thinks they saved $25 and you made $15. :) Now multiply it by 100 sales and you're in business. I do about $2K a month in sales and I profit about $500 and that’s from just working part time. It's not "easy money", you do have to work at it, but if you're willing to invest the time and effort, you can do it.

To answer you the easiest way...none of them work, and if they do, they stop working very shortly thereafter.\n\nThe easiest way to get the same type of functionality would be to goto a site that has thins functionality built into it, http://www.linkingfolks.com and http://www.tagworld.com are 2 that i know of that do this...im sure there are others as well

There might not be a straight forward method of doing that through the Messenger. What you can do is open your Address book on Yahoo (address.yahoo.com) and delete the names from there that you don't want on your Messenger anymore. Think that should be the easiest way.

They tell me that the wrestlers don't really punch each other and the they don't hit each other as hard. They also say that the florr they get hit on is soft and the blood is fake. I do not believe this. \nCan someone clear thins out? Thank you

It isn't totally fake like some may think. Their just ignorant. The floor isn't fake, do you think you'd be able to make that much noise off your bed>? No plus the ropes are hard as hell to. Have you watched that, well I'm not sure if its on anymore but that wrestling tryout show for wwe? Some people quit pretty early on. \n\nMost of the punches dont' have much on it. But some look like they hurt pretty darn bad. I watched in slow motion one time booker t kicked someone in the head. *OUCH* That guy got nailed pretty hard. Most of it isn't but some of those slaps can be pretty hard. \n\nHowever, there are some real injuries and if the moves aren't done right can be harmful to your health if you know what I mean. They usually say if a wrestler misses a great deal of time its a real injury. But if they have a cast and are seen relatively soon after the injury and get hit in the cast. Most likely its fake. \n\nThe ref usually makes an 'X' signal with his arms above his head when somebody is legit injured. \nLot's of legit injuries and hard knocks must occur during the match though, most of the time the wrestler will opt to carry on until the end depending on the severity of the injury. So most of the time you only really know at the end of a match. \n\nAlso, after something that may have injured someone, if everything's OK the ref will stick one arm straight up to signal people in the back.\n\n.........................................................\nIt is not a smart idea to accuse a pro wrester of being a fake.\nA few years back, John Stossel, consumer reporter for ABC's 20/20, did just that to to wrestler Dr. D (David Schultz). The good doctor clapped him over the ears so hard that Stossel believed that his hearing had been permanently damaged. \n\nComedian Richard Belzer challenged Hulk Hogan to put a headlock on him. Hogan did just that, with such force that it cut off the blood supply to the comedian's brain. When Hogan released the hold, Belzer dropped to the floor unconscious.\n\nGoldberg doesn't appreciate being called a fake. He has challenged anyone to stand up to his spear, in which the 285-pound mountain of muscles charges headfirst from about 10 feet away. If anyone can stand up after the charge, "they can call it a fake," says Goldberg - but not before. Wisely, there have been no takers for that challenge.\n...........................................................\nI was looking also for some good examples of serious injuries but am havning trouble finding the sites.\n\nBut from memory remember when kurt angle piledrived stone cold steve austin in the middle of the ring. He was out for over 6 months because he had a bunch of vertabra's in his back busted up and had a neck brace on forever. Most people thought he was going to be gone forever. His body is so beat up he needs to wear braces on his legs. The only reason he doesnt wrestle now is cause I don't think his body can take much more.\n\nChris benoit always jumps off the top turn buckle. I think he missed quite a bit of time to cause he landed funny on his neck. I think I remember seeing it. Pretty frikin sick. \n\nahh here's a nice forum http://www.lopforums.com/showthread.php?t=610 read on my friend!!! *RZ*


Have u had OCD? And now completely cured? How did u do it?

Well, there is OCD and OCPD  Obsessive Compulsive Disorder and Obsessive Compulsive Personality Disorder.  OCD can ruin ones life.  OCPD is just what we would call a "quirk".  I suffer from both and don't think it will ever go away.  You learn how to deal with it as you would have to with any other disability.  Look up "Cognitive Therapy" in a search engine for a better understanding of how it works.

1518?, Spanish explorer in Mexico. Sailing from Cuba on a slave hunt, he discovered Yucatán in 1517. He died from wounds received in a battle with the Maya. His explorations were furthered by Juan de Grijalva.\n\nd. 1526?, Spanish conquistador. Sent in 1523 by Pedro Arias de Ávila to deprive Gil González de Ávila (d. 1543) of his claims to Nicaragua, Fernández de Córdoba founded León and Granada (Nicaragua). In an attempt to seize Nicaragua for himself, he was surprised by his commander and put to death. The Nicaraguan unit of currency (córdoba) is named after him.\n\nFrancisco Fernández (Hernandez) de Córdoba (? - 1524) was a Spanish explorer and slave trader who explored Mexico (1517) and Nicaragua (1524). \nIn February 1517, Cordoba sailed from Cuba to the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico with 3 ships and 110 soldiers; he was the first European to travel to this area, and the first to see the Mayan people. Cordoba had been sent to Mexico by Diego Velazquez, the governor of Cuba, to look for treasures to plunder. First Juan de Grijalva and then Hernan Cortes continued the Spanish exploration/conquest of Mexico. \n\nIn 1524, the Governor of Darien (now part of Panama), Pedro Arias de Ávila (also called Pedrarias Dávila), sent Hernandez de Cordoba to Nicaragua (Francisco de Soto accompanied him on this trip) to claim the land (and usurp the land claims of Gil González de Ávila ). On this trip, Cordoba founded the first permanent Spanish settlements in the area, including Granada (on Lake Nicaragua) and Leon (east of Lake Managua). After trying to claim Nicaragua for himself, Cordoba was killed by Pedro Arias de Ávila.


wath do presidents do today that the kings didint do to the people

The presidents job is basically like the CEO of a company. He has finaly say in everything that comes across his desk but little input into the basic day-to-day operations. Most of that is handled by the board (House and Senate). Most CEO's tend to make decisions based on what is best for the company via a yes or no vote at board meetings. Bush has yet to say no (veto) to anything the board has asked him for. Kings and Queens used to wield a lot more power than they do today. If you look at the Queen of England, she is basically a figurehead, the House of Commons and Prime Minister make the decisions and do the work.


That could slow or eliminate a hurricane? Obvioiusly you can't use nuclear because of radiation, but what about an enormous amount of TNT or some other non-harmful explosive substance in the direct eye (vertically and horizonally) and detonate it to suck the air and vaporize the water is this even feasable? And if not what do you think could work to slow or prevent a hurricane?

man oh man!!\nU.S got pissed off cause canada come out with theses cards frist to cross the boarder, now they come up with fast past and cost $80.00 canadian. why shoud canadaians hves these papers in the frist place??? now Harper went to see Bush and now they want canadain too get pastports. what the matter with him?? we not in Russ or Germany... whats next?\nwe canadians don't start put a stop soon, we are going to live like the movies. card too show to get gas or food ete.\nwhat happen Free Country. we are the ones help the blacks to be free from the U.S. and we got more people in to save them from fear an death, now us telling canada what to do.. whats wrong with this program??\npassports for going ovre seas, not us.

that's not the main reason why USA is mad whit Canada . the main reason is that Canadians didn't not support the war in Iraq , they decided to allow gay marriage , and they pretty much opposed the American government in a lot of issues . so this is pretty much a revenge get accustom to it USA don't like  ur positions and they have pretty much decided to make your lives hard . on the other side i think u should keep ur openness of mind and u should star getting away from USA at least for now . i know that they been saying Canada wouldn't exist Whit out USA and been reminding them constantly that they depend in an 80 percent of USA and this has bothered the Canadian Government .


I'm looking to purchase a new condo in NYC, the selling place has given me an offering plan and recommended lawyers to have it reviewed.  They charge $1200 - $1500.  is this necessary since there are over 100 other tennants who likely already did this?

They will tell you what your rights and responsibilities are with regard to the condo association and your ownership.  They will tell you if there is anything unusual about this particular condo.  They will read hundreds of mind-numbing pages so that you don't have to.\n\nHere's an interesting one that a condo association slipped into a public offering that I recently reviewed:  the association has hazard insurance for the building.  But there is a deductible of $5000 and the condo association will only pay $250 of that $5000 deductible towards each unit.  So in the event of a fire the unit owner has to pay $4,500 before the condo association's insurance will kick in.  (That is insurance that all of the owners pay for as part of their monthly maintenance payments.)  The unit owner can obtain a rider to their homeowner's policy that will cover them for that additional deductible for a small amount per year but would you have known about that?  No.  Not unless you read the offering plan or had an attorney review it for you.


A friend has 5+ experience as a loan officer and can not afford to take the pay cut to do processing apprenticeship to get foot in the door to become u/w Are there any trainings or continuing education classes that could be taken to obtain a certification?

Becoming a loan processor, depending where you work, is not considered menial pay. Your friend can easily make, with monthly bonus, 40K- 60K a year. If your friend is making more than this as a loan officer, then I wouldn't leave. I do not believe I have seen a first year U/W make 60K +.\n\nAs far as training, I have not seen much out there. I have seen self study sources such as www.schoolofmortgagelending, but I would say the best thing that can help him be an underwriter is to know his loan programs, guidelines, and be able to read an appraisal and title. This is all the information that is ALREADY at this finger tips since he is a loan officer.\n\nAlso, if you want to learn more about U/W, then treat your processor WELL!!!!!! (lunches or cash on the side)


If I have a program (software) installed on HD 1 (my master drive) and the information used by this software installed on HD 2, will there be any problems accessing the data? \n\nFor example, if I have the software (Adobe Premiere Elements) which is used by my "video capture device" (VCD) (hardware) installed on HD 1, can I keep the video I  download with the VCD on HD 2 and still be able to access it from the VCD software which is installed on HD 1? \n\nDownloaded video uses a lot of hard drive space and I'd like to keep all of it on HD 2 (my slave drive).\n\nOne hour of downloaded video uses about 13GB of memory on a HD and I have lots of video to download from my old vhs tapes. And, it all has to be edited with the Adobe Premiere software before being burned to DVD.\n\nRight now I have about 6GB of downloaded video on HD 1 that I'd like to move to HD 2. Will it be easy for me to move a 6 GB file of video from HD 1 to HD 2? \n\nI'd like to keep all of my downloaded video on HD 2.

With my knowledge, I would say that it's okay to move all your downloaded videos to the slave. You can always open it from the slave so it should be fine. HOWEVER! I DO NOT recommend installing software on the slave because I've had many people complain that programs give them errors that they cant find themselves because they refer to drive C: instead of drive D:. however opening, saving, and working with files on the slave is fine. It's like working with data from a thumb drive or CD or external hard drive.


A male friend of mine suffers from this recurring condition-- and wants to know from doctors or fellow sufferers what they've learned that works in treating and preventing this condition.  He's being treated by a urologist, so he's likely been provided with the basic information about this.  Anything else that might be helpful will be greatly appreciated.

I've struggled with these. Here's what's worked: regular (twice daily for a week), long, hot sitz baths, avoidance of alcohol and greasy foods when acute symptoms present. Regular ejaculations may or may not help. What doesn't work real well for me is a long course of antibiotics. I would also try to get a chlamydia culture.  The little buggers are hard to culture, but if they do, you might have an over abundance and consider a drug intervention against them.  Good luck. Don't give up. I used to get flair ups every year or so but haven't had a bad one in several years.


It seems to me that the more I ask and answer questions on here the more I realize that many of us have the same opinions on many of these issues. Strange how the longer I hang out in Answers the more I feel I understand the sentiment of others.\n\nDoes anyone else get this? Do you think news media does more to divide people than to bring them together? \n\nMaybe its just because its sprintime....anyone?

An effective media does nothing but report a fact, but the problem is that the media is not perfect, and as such has an opinion, and this causes people to violently disagree.\n\nfactions polarize when there is a smaller moderate group. The extremists will convince the smaller moderate that the only way to get anything done is to support them, the other side then believes they must become extreme to counter the other extremists and the situation escalates.

I recently recieved a stainless steel flask for my birthday. I opened it up and it appeared that there was a light green mineral type substance on the inside rim of the flask. I put some rubbing alcohol in the flask and shook it for a while. Most of the green substance was cleared off however it revealed a shiny copper maybe rust looking part of the metal. I was curious as to what this might be because I want to make sure it is not rusting and that it is safe to consume liqour out of it. Thank you.

Not sure if the inside is true stainless steel.\nI would return the item, to be safe.\nOr, the substance, is residue from manufacture of the cap, or the seal of the stainless and the flask.


i use DVD architect now. is that the best one?

I have a friend that uses WinDVD, he likes it because of the "ease" and friendliness of it.  If you want to go complete professionalism, go make a real movie with Adobe Premier.

Check the source below for a good find...

its like a pimple i think looks dark and hurts.is boils bad?

Mike_haywood pretty much got it... but just to add..if you do have a boil, go to your dermatologist right away so that she can lance it for you. Otherwise, if the boil comes to a head and you do minor surgery on yourself, chances are that you won't get all the pus out and it will solidify leaving a bump on your skin that you cannot remove anymore.  If your boil is in a visible place, this could be very unsightly.

I just bought a new laptop with wireless capabilities. It will tell me when a wireless connection is available, but I do not want to connect using someone elses wireless network. Can someone tell me exactly what I need to do to set up my own secured wireless connection? This is a new area for me.

Sure--this is easy, inexpensive, and will completely change the way you use the internet!\n\nSince you already have a wireless adapter for your laptop, the only thing you should need is a wireless router.  Before we get into the particulars, the only way to take advantage of a wireless network is if you have a broadband internet connection--like DSL or cable internet.  Otherwise, it just won't work.\n\nOn to routers.  You can find them at retailers like Best Buy and Circuit City, as well as anyone selling computer accessories.  The best-known brands are D-Link, Linksys, and Belkin.  You should be able to buy one for $40-70 or maybe less with a rebate offer.\n\nSet-up is pretty simple.  You should follow the setup instructions, but you should just have to plug the router into a power outlet, and connect the Ethernet cable coming from your modem to the input on the router.  It should all be clearly labeled for you.\n\nThere will likely be some configuring that you will need to do, but it's easy, since the router software interface is accessed by your web browser.  One of the first things you will want to do is set up your router for encryption.  \n\nThere are a couple of different standards that are available--I think WPA is the newest and best.  In any event, you'll need to generate a "passphrase"--a random series of letters and numbers that you should save in a safe place.  You'll need to enter this passphrase in your wireless adapter utility software to connect to the router.  Once your adapter detects your network, it will walk you through connecting to it, including entering the passphrase.  You should be sure and save this connection as a "profile" so your utility will save the passphrase and make it easy to re-connect again.\n\nThat is really pretty much it.  The router should work without much attention.  You may need to occasionally reboot it, but I have little if any trouble with mine.  Remember too, that if you have or want additional computers to access the router that each computer will need its own wireless adapter as well.  USB adapters are a great choice for desktops or laptops, since they require no installation.\n\nEnjoy your new wireless network once you set it up!

What is your favorite Horror Movie that uses Mythology in its storyline or characters?

Anything with demonic puppets or dolls....chuckey, puppet master and such. I don't know if it counts, but moving the spirit to a non-living human doll is mythology right? *looks around for someone to agree*\n\nI also like the Wishmasters (genies- djinn)\nThe urban legends movies were okay.\nThe lepracaun movies were just sad (death by pogo stick *droll stare*)\nThe vampire movies like Interview with a vampire (great) and Aaliyah's Queen of the damned (okay) are good myth/horrors too.


Not that I want to date white men (no offense white men), but as I live in NYC, I see this all the time: petting each other on the subway, PDAs out in the middle of the street, etc. I have my own theory about white men and Asian women dating, but am interested in hearing it either from the horse's mouth or hearing other theories.

Well, I live in Asia and all the white men I know do date Asian women, especially over here. I've been here a long, long time, and have observed many situations and have asked some of my friends about it. I don't know the reasons, but I will list what they have said: \n\n(DISCLAIMER: I am only reporting what was said to me!!!!)\n\n1. Their bodies (sexually) are smaller and tighter.\n2. Their hands are beautiful - long, thin fingers. (some men are really into this)\n3. Their breasts are smaller (to some men this is very attractive)\n4. They are experts in emotionally making a man feel, well...like a man. (look at the culture, read the history)\n5. Their bodies are "lighter" (apparently a real turn-on in some sexual scenarios)\n6. Here in China, they are given strong encouragement by their families to "get" a foreigner. Even to the point of receiving accolades from their friends for breaking up a marriage.\n7. They manage to accomplish all the above while looking and acting extremely shy and even aloof. (for a man who likes the "hunt", it's irresistable)\n\nOn the other hand, to be fair, my brother, who has lived here for several years and dated exclusively Asian women, says that:\n\n1. After a while, it gets pretty old. (being used for sex)\n2. While they may be particularly attractive, he says, it's the women raised in western countries who end up being far more daring and willing to try new things sexually\n3. The bottom line is: (according to him) They want money and a foreign passport. That gets old, as well.


If there is a difference, which is better? (Performance & Price)

None really. Originally "Notebook computer" was used to define a smaller and lighter portable computer but the terms are used pretty well  identically these days.


I am deciding on my plan of action, and I'm wondering also if anyone can tell me if they think there will be a need for people like this in the future.

It's fun and better than other discussion boards without a point scoring system. However, I have found that if you stroke the asker's ego, that's the best way to get the most points.\n\nFor all bf/gf problems, if you side with the asker, they'll give you the points.


For example I was on one of the web sites for politicians and it says that Samuel Adams was politician. I need some more politicians for 2006.

Yeah, Samuel Adams.  Him and Jim Beam, Jack Daniels...all those guys.


I've been told it means "Don't let the bastards wear you down".  Need confirmation.

"Illegitimis non carborundum"\n\n(Phrase Origins)\n\n\n\n   Yes, this means "Don't let the bastards grind you down", but it\nis not real Latin; it is a pseudo-Latin joke.\n\n   "Carborundum" is a trademark for a very hard substance composed\nof silicon carbide, used in grinding.  (The name "Carborundum" is a\nblend of "carbon" and "corundum".  "Corundum" denotes aluminium\noxide, and comes to English from Tamil _kuruntam_; it is related to\nSanskrit _kuruvinda_ = "ruby".)  "The "-ndum" ending suggests the\nLatin gerundive, which is used to express desirability of the\nactivity denoted by the verb, as in _Nil desperandum_ = "nothing to\nbe despaired of"; _addendum_ = "(thing) fit to be added";\n_corrigendum_ = "(thing) fit to be corrected"; and the name Amanda,\nfrom _amanda_ = "fit to be loved").\n\n   _Illegitimis_ is the dative plural of _illegitimus_ =\n"illegitimate"; the gerundive in Latin correctly takes the dative to\ndenote the agent.  _Illegitimus_ could conceivably mean "bastard" in\nLatin, but was not the usual word for it:  _Follett World-Wide Latin\nDictionary_ (Follett, 1967) gives _nothus homo_ for bastard of known\nfather, and _spurius_ for bastard of unknown father.\n\n   The phrase seems to have originated with British army\nintelligence early in World War II.  It was popularized when U.S.\ngeneral Joseph W. "Vinegar Joe" Stilwell (1883-1946) adopted it as\nhis motto.  Various variant forms are in circulation.\n\n\nSource: [Mark Israel, 'Phrase Origins: "Illegitimis non carborundum"', The alt.usage.english FAQ file,(line 4970), (29 Sept 1997)]


Recently, my iTunes has begun to play all my music tracks sped up.  This also happens when I stream audio, and my default Windows and AIM sounds have changed, too.  Could this be a virus, and if so, how can I eliminate it?  If not, is there anything else I can do to fix my sound?  I'm tired of listening to the Chipmunks instead of Destiny's Child.

I don't really feel like i belong here in college.  want to be an actress. I wanna save money and move to LA.  I feel like i'm wasting time and money. Should i leave? What do you think??

I would not leave college.  a degree is something you can carry with you in any career, even to L.A.\nI'm sure you know, it's not that easy to be an actress. there are thousands of women doing small jobs hoping for their big day.  I dont want to discourage your dreams, but getting a degree is one thing you'll never regret. try to hang in there. u have my support and prayers.


we have replaced the coil, rotar, distribotor cap, and still nothing

more info please. have you made sure you are getting gas to the carb? all the fire in the world cant run an engine with a bad fuel pump or clogged filter. are you getting spark? pull a plug wire and sick a screw driver in it. place the screw driver near the manifold(less than half an inch from it) and turn the engine over. if no spark jumps from screw driver to exhaust manifold you still have a spark issue. if you are getting fire then it should be a fuel issue. if you have both fuel and fire and it turns over but doesnt catch then it gets interesting. also if it turns over but jerks hard you may have the timing out so far it can't catch. eliminate possibilities one at a time and eventually you will eliminate the problem.


Anyone know how you can see a clear picture of the WTC burning on the new 10 and 20 dollar bills? There is a lot of folding involved, and i want to know if anyone else has heard of this...

Fold it lengthwise so that The White House is visible.  Hold it upside down so that the number 20 is upside down.  Fold the right side of the bill so that it aligns with the the pillar of the whitehouse nearest it (forms an L)  Do the same thing on the left side.(should like like an airplane)  Don't let the center folds meet.  There should be a gap between them.

my girlfriend i see in her she is going back i'm feeling that she doesn't like me anymore i know from her sound what can i do now i love her really i love her but i'm in fuck now what can i do ?\nadivce me plz

You should sit down and talk to her about it. I'm not too sure what you are in "****" means, but if you are having trouble with her then the only way to figure it out is to talk to her and she what she is thinking. Can you give more detail as to her recent actions? What is making you feel that she doesn't like you anymore?\n\nPlease come an update so I can try to help you.


I need to find linens to rent or to buy for cheaper than $12 dollars a piece. Can you help?

Try calling your local dry cleaners--they usually have things you can rent. Also, try party suppliers and see what their prices are. If you want to buy instead of rent, I'd suggest going to outlet stores and seeing what you can find. Another good place is also Ebay.  I'd be against buying items only for the fact is you will have so many linens you will probably never use them all ever again--however, sometimes the cost of buying is cheaper than renting, and you don't have to worry about returning them.


my boyfriend is 18 and im 14 and im wondering what the laws were about us being together. i would like a clear answer or website that has the exact law.

And even if you engage in no sexual conduct whatsoever, your boyfriend may be charged with Contributing to the Delinquency of a Minor, Custodial Interference, Kidnaapping and more.\n\nBasically, the law is written around a very simple concept:  18 year-olds and 14 year-olds have very little in common.  14 year-olds are still figuring out who they are.  They can't drive or work or do much of anything except go to school.  18 year-olds already know who they are.  They're not in school.  They have jobs and cars.  Why would an 18 year-old want to spend time with a girl who's 14?  Why isn't he capable of dating a girl who's his own age and who has had the same experiences as he has?\n\nThe answer is that any 18 year-old who wants to spend time with someone 4 years younger, is not well adjusted socially.  He shouldn't be around children.  And children like you shouldn't be around him.  Find a better boyfriend, one who has more in common with you.


I have searched the web for solutions but cannot find any potential fixes.

I have 2 sticks ordered and should get them tomorrow.  The board does say it will take DDR 2100 though.  Anyway, when I get everything hooked up and turned on, all the fans are running and the green LED light is blaring but it never boots up.  No LED changes, no beeps, etc...   What could be holding it back from booting up?

No BIOS post codes almost always points to a bad seat of the CPU. Reseat it. Drop the ram back to a single chip and remove any extra cards, KISS (Keep It Simple Stupid) and then build from there.


I'm trying to download Ray j's number one song,(One Wish.)

me and my best friend are now step sisters and now she lives with me ya sounds fun but its like living in hell we dont get a long very good any more wat should i do?

Well if u give her a chance that she could be good, then u and her will have a good life again. All u need is let her friends come to the house and have fun with her friends and then next time u bring ur friends in the house and see if she is having fun with ur friend. If u want that u and ur step sister be together u should talk about what u like and what u don't like or just have a girly talk. Maybe u could have a double date with to cute guys and after that u can talk about the date that u had with the guys.

IF I KNEW\n\n If I knew it would be the last time\n That I'd see you fall asleep,\n I would tuck you in more tightly\n and pray the Lord, your soul to keep.\n\n If I knew it would be the last time\n that I see you walk out the door,\n I would give you a hug and kiss\n and call you back for one more.\n\n If I knew it would be the last time\n I'd hear your voice lifted up in praise,\n I would video tape each action and word,\n so I could play them back day after day.\n\n If I knew it would be the last time,\n I could spare an extra minute\n to stop and say "I love you,"\n instead of assuming you would KNOW I do.\n\n If I knew it would be the last time\n I would be there to share your day,\n Well I'm sure you'll have so many more,\n so I can let just this one slip away.\n\n For surely there's always tomorrow\n to make up for an oversight,\n and we always get a second chance\n to make everything just right.\n\n There will always be another day\n to say "I love you,"\n And certainly there's another chance\n to say our "Anything I can do?"\n\n But just in case I might be wrong,\n and today is all I get,\n I'd like to say how much I love you\n and I hope we never forget.\n\n Tomorrow is not promised to anyone,\n young or old alike,\n And today may be the last chance\n you get to hold your loved one tight.\n\n So if you're waiting for tomorrow,\n why not do it today?\n For if tomorrow never comes,\n you'll surely regret the day,\n\n That you didn't take that extra time\n for a smile, a hug, or a kiss\n and you were too busy to grant someone,\n what turned out to be their one last wish.\n\n So hold your loved ones close today,\n and whisper in their ear,\n Tell them how much you love them\n and that you'll always hold them dear\n\n Take time to say "I'm sorry,"\n "Please forgive me," "Thank you," or "It's okay."\n And if tomorrow never comes,\n you'll have no regrets about today.

This sounds more like a love poem to someone you love rather than to ask for forgiveness. Yes I have regrets. I regret my selfishness. I envy those who can feel love and acceptance from god. What have I got to believe in? Not believing in god is lonely, but I can't.


I told him that my period is late almost a week he didnt respond do you think if i am he will leave me. He says he dont trust me

Hun i think he's trying to make you feel guilty in a way so he has a chance to run out on you and not have to be a part of any of what you going through either that or he's just plain cheating on you it that thing we call reverse psychology. when their doing something wrong and try to take it out the innocent.

People who engage in Same-gender sexual acts often claim that they don't have the same rights as other people. How so?\nAs a male who is attracted to females, I have the right to marry, and so does my neighbor steve who engages in same-sex behavior. We are both limited in that we can only marry a person of the opposite sex...does one of us have more rights than the other?

You can marry the person you love and want to spend the rest of your life with, while they can't. Laws against same-sex marriage impose an arbitrary, and essentially religious view of marriage on people who do not believe in it, for no reason other than to maintain the status quo. It is ridiculous to say that you have the same rights because you can't marry someone of the same sex either; you obviously don't want to.


Recently I was asked by my American bosses visiting Japan if I would be interested in working in US. In fact their colleague, who is positioned as the same level asked me the same last year.  I'd love to work there especially after working in UK for three years and am now working in Japan feeling I am not from here. Managers were talking about vacant positions in US office suitable for me, but I am not sure if I should take what they say to heart. I was looking after them, helping translation and interpretion, and I wonder if they were just being nice to me.  I have not told them that I want to work in another country again, and it was them who started talking about this first.  Shall I take this as a politeness of American business manner?  Another manager who said the same thing last year is visiting here for meeting soon.  Shall I remind him again to see if I can hand him my resume by mentioning my recent conversation with other bosses?  Please advise me.

If they initiated the suggestion then they are most likely impressed with your work.  I would suggest that you talk to the last person who mentioned the opportunity or to this person you are visiting soon, and politely tell them that you would like to consider an opportunity to work in the US but would like to understand what role/position you would be in, and how the relocation would work.  If they are serious you should hear some positive feedback shortly (within a month depending on the size of the company - the larger the company the more time this may take, politly follow-up as needed).  Once you find out if this is a real opportunity then you need to find out more on the relocation specifics.  That is, how much money are they willing to move you (and your family if applicable).  Also, since you are not a US citizen you will need to get a work visa (which your company should take care of for you).  Hope that helps...good luck!

it involved peoples expectations of the outcome of someone enlisting in the army.\nI just want to know why we are shocked that soldiers get killed. Saddened I can understand ,especially when the loss is personal,but what were you all thinking when the person enlisted.

I think the fact that you were scolded in the first place is an example of the underlying problem western society faces.  We all believe in freedom of speech, to the point that ignorant, irrational and illogical cartoons about a sacred religious leader are allowed, albeit with some disdain, under the ideals of freedom of speech.  Yet so many great questions, like yours, based on logic, are completely written off as taboo.  I too like to discuss the "unmentionable" issues that are in fact key to our society's progression.  A huge example is the "unpatriotic" label alot of Americans got back in '03.

...dated, kissed, been to a dance, or anything.\n\nAnd I'm perfectly comfortable with that.  I haven't met someone whom I would feel like doing any of those things with, and I personally feel it's my decision when I should.\n\nHowever, my mother and sisters constantly make fun of me, or make derogatory comments towards my sexuality ("PLEASE tell me you're not a LESBIAN"), and I'm tired of it.  I feel my situation is perfectly normal, and nothing to be ashamed of.  \n\nIf I'm comfortable not having much experience with boys, am I a freak, or is that okay?

There is nothing wrong with being a female and not wanting to date, kiss, go to a dance, or anything. As a woman, only you have the choice whether you want to do this kind of stuff with someone else. Its a privilage that a women enjoys. Don't give in to groupthink or peer pressure and be your own person.\n\nTell your mother and your sisters you do not appreciate their comments and look serious when doing so, and if they really care about you, they should stop. If they don't, then there is a communication problem that is going on, or they are are suffering from apathy.

Ball was hit out to left field over the left fieldmen and the left fielder throws his glove up and knocks the ball down.  What is the rule???

If I remember correctly from my umpiring days, if a defensive player throws any part of his equipment at a batted ball and it makes contact, the batter and runners are awarded 3 bases, (It's the only 3 base award, and the most  severe) but the ball is still alive, and the batter can try to take home on his own if he/she wishes.  It doesn't matter on the park or the league, it is not an individual ground rule.\n\nFrom the baseball rule book:\n\n7.05\nEach runner including the batter runner may, without liability to be put out, advance...(b) Three bases, if a fielder deliberately touches a fair ball with his cap, mask or any part of his uniform detached from its proper place on his person. The ball is in play and the batter may advance to home base at his peril;  c) Three bases, if a fielder deliberately throws his glove at and touches a fair ball. The ball is in play and the batter may advance to home base at his peril.

I can understand if they decide to hire someone else(I am a big girl and I can handle rejection), but I don't understand why they  can't at least have the professional courtesy of dropping a quick note in the mail to let me know the position has been filled? And often when I try to call and ask if a decision has been made, all I ever get is voicemail and they will not return my call. Hello?! How rude is that!

Also, you may be surprised to learn, most managers are not very good at confrontation, even passivly.  Watch carefully as you interact in the business world.  A smart manager hires a "watchdog".  A secretary or assistant who fields all calls and deflects the majority of the problems and less pleasent tasks from the manager.  \n\nWhoever did the interview didn't want to say, "If you don't hear from us in a couple weeks, that means you didn't get the job." which is what he really means when he says "You'll hear from us either way."\n\nAfter the interview process is over, and they've selected someone, the training begins, and any thought to empty promises made to people they will probably never see again goes out the window.  Sad, huh?\n\nI agree with someone above who said that etiquette in the business world is gone!


Coughing worse at night, nasal passages congested, thanks for ideas!

Robitussin DM, Mucinex DM are two that my doctor recommends quite frequently.


class Factorial\n {\n int fact(int n)\n  {\n   int result;\n   if(n==1) return 1;\n   result = fact (n-1)* n;\n   return result;\n    }\n   } \n  class Recursion\n        { \n       Public static void main( String args[])\n        {\n       Factorial f = new Factorial();\n     System.out.println ( " Factorial of 3 is: " +f.fact(3));\n     System.out.println ( " Factorial of 4 is: " +f.fact(4));\n     System.out.println ( " Factorial of 5 is: " +f.fact(5));\n        }\n        }

Lets examin the first output case you have, f.fact(3):\nThe first layer of this function call will have result = fact(3-1)*n.  This will of course call another layer of the fact function with result = fact(2-1)*n, and this will then call fact on 1. \n\nSince the base case for the recusion is 1, 1 will be returned.  And the function call will return values in reverse order.  So result = fact(2-1)*n will no be result = 1*2.  Which will then be returned to the function that called it, result =fact(3-1)*n is now result = 2*3. and that value is finally returned.\n\nThe key to understanding recursion is knowing what the basecase is.  If you can find the base case then evaluating the recursion is simply.  Just follow the function all the way through until you hit that base case, then work your back out example... 1 -> 2 -> 3 -> 4  then to get out we'd go 3 -> 2 -> 1.\n\nHopefully this helps.


I feel that it is an injustice to our troops to fight and die for the people of Afghanistan when they find Christianity a capital offense. What is it that they are so afraid of? We do not kill muslims in this country. Our troops fought for what they/we thought was freedom for the Afghan people. Freedom? I don't think so.

I can't follow your thought process at all... but the Afghans are very closed minded for this and I think it's pretty shameful
