Im a australian btw. Im not 100% up to date with vick but it seems as if people esepcially the media forced him into playing a uncomfortable gameplay for the 2005 season unlike his previous season.\n\nLike what i mean is that in 2004 he could do what he wanted on the field and make the decisions as he felt where as in 2005 he was locked into the pocket to proove a point.\n\nDo you reakon that his better doing his own thing or should he be the pocket man that all the vick haters cry about him not being.

The problem with Vick is that he looks to run the ball instead of throwing it.  He was that way in college, and his first few years in the pros.\n\nLike any professional athlete, he wants to get his respect in the media, so he tried to adapt his style by throwing the ball more often.  The truth is, he just isn't a great drop back QB.  He has all of the tools, but he just hasn't had to do it all that much.\n\nGiven time, he could be a great all around quater back, but as teams learn his tendancies and shut his legs down forcing him to throw, his "stats" aren't going to be very strong.\n\nI live in Atlanta and heard all of the criticism, but the most telling thing of all is his record as a starting quarterback.  I don't know the numbers off of the top of my head, but he wins about 70% of the games he starts.


It is observed that all throughout the world,politicians commiting most henious crime are dealt with leniently and in almost all cases are let off.and if they are executive heads of a country it is obvious.BIG WHY? Then what is the difference between Communism and democracy.One getting forceful judgement through muscle power other through the power of peoples right(disgise of muscle).In both cases law is shown a huge thumb.What a pitty, Is this, a real civilized world at all? And what about the political leaders who so ever they may be, Do they know what is the meaning of law & order what to say of the meaning of civilized.A world which is ruled by hoodlums (the politician)unlike old days.how can a nation expect law and order rectified while they themselves creat and cry over it for rectification.how very pathetic.

The double standard concerning general public VS any level of the well connected or law enforcement personnel is the standard rule! although-out words like nobody is above the law occasional surface without any substance of coarse! Democracy here in USA HA HA poo poo!Answer to your question NO the public is not on a level playing field when it comes to us verses them!

Compatibility problem.\nTwo options, upgrade or degrade source & destination.\n\nIf you find and download only *.itl, it could complain about other files. So, don't be focused on this particular Library.itl only, and choose one of two options.\nI prefer upgrade to degrade.


Give me 3 names of country singers you think the country music industry could do without and why?

Josh Turner! Has anybody even listened to the "Your Man" album??? My coworker bought it and we listened to it at work. let me say that it is the dumbest music i have EVER listened to, besides the actual song your man (its a really good song!). and i absolutly hate his voice. Cowboy troy! I cannot stand him!!! If i wanted to listen rap by god i will turn my radio to the rap station, other than that keep him off the radio and file his albums underneath the 'rap' section at your local walmart. Jo Dee Messina! I loved her years ago when she first came out. That first album was terrific! What happened besides the fact that she is trying TOO hard to put out music that she hopes people will like but end up being completely annoyed by.... and she is trying to compete with all of the fresh meat that is in country music! She needs to realize that she came out during the best time of modern country music and she should stick with it... not new pop singles!!! COUNTRY!!!!!


because i do.he's playing SUPERBLY - i haven't seen him making any unforgivable slips for sooo long.\ni think that the poor guy deserves a shot.

Personally, I believe Lehman is a lot better than Kahn. He's one of the main reasons Arsenal had a full unbeated season (03-04)! No other team in the history of Football has bean able to do that! A lot of it was becaues of Lehman's awesome goal-keeping!\n\nUnfortunately, I think Kahn would probably be selected, as he has a larger 'presence' in the National team. Also, he led Germany far in the last few tournaments...\n\nLet's hope Jens Lehman is finally selected!


What would you do if you had your way with a irresistable woman ready and willing, would u do the same with a woman who was not so irresistable but ready and willing? just be honest trying to do a toll for college class

I would probably be more attentive to the less attractive person.  The attractive one is expecting you to be all over her.  She would be more interested in her own enjoyment with little concern for you.  The less attractive person feels better about sharing s*x with you and would be as much attentive to you as you are to her.


it means i have seen a guy that he was in a crowd and he could identify exactly that somebody did not belong to the people in the crowd,he was able to say the same just watching the landscape,he noticed in a few seconds that something was not right,he was in the army(specialist).

Surveilance is what comes to mind-any GOOD cop (rarity) knows how. I had a buddy who was an MP in sunny SE Asia that could pick a VC out of a crowd just by the way the guy (or girl) looked at him.

OK,2 years ago an uncle asked me if he could borrow $300,even though I knew he was and still is VERY IRRESPONSIBLE (he is 35 years old)I gave him the money,he told me he was going to pay me back in 2 months,he did not and I asked every MONTH about my money and he gave lame excuses everytime,he buys clothes and shoes and I see that he does have money from time to time,why he doesnt pay me back I dont know,what should I do?I was thinking go to a small court so I can file a claim and yes..go to court..but would I spend more money by doing so?somebody knows how that works??? I want my money back,I even told him to pay me in small payments every month,he just said yes but never did it...He is my uncle but he needs to understand that we all have responsibilities and HE NEEDS TO PAY BACK!\nany suggestions?

I would probably try to get a hold of something personal of his...and tell him he can have it back when you get your $300!\n Going to court will teach him a lesson...but it may leave you out of pocket!\n Could you get another family member to talk to him about it?

Black holes are collapsed stars that are so dense light can't escape. (i think correct me if im wrong)\n\nIf im right, since light has no mass, how can gravity effect it??

Light has no rest mass, since it can't be stopped without absorbing it, but it does have a mass equivalence due to its energy.  The energy of a photon of a particular wavelength of light is given by E=(h-bar)(nu) and the mass equivalence of energy is E=MC^2, so (h-bar)(nu)=MC^2, solve for M, and you get M=(h-bar)(nu)/C^2 as the mass equivalence for an individual photon.  It's a really, really small number, even for high energy wavelengths of light, plus light moves very fast past an object which could assert a gravitational pull on in, so light only bends by an observable amount in really high gravitational fields.


in the up and coming 2nd city derby, who do you think will win between these two fierce rivals, Aston Villa's form of recent times has been poor, but birmingham have just been on the end of a 7-0 mauling by liverpool

I am writing a report and i need to write it in third person story telling and I dont know what that is.

Third person is when the author uses pronouns other than I or we or you.  First person is when the author makes himself part of the story, "I went to the store." Second person is when the author says, "You (the reader)saw the boy." and Third person is when the author is just telling a story, without himself in it: "the boy and the girl went to the store." etc...


I am in possesion of a general liberal arts B.A. (3 year)

It really depends what state you are in.  In CA, you must go to an accredited radiologic technologist program.  I had to complete about two years of a college, with classes in biology, anatomy and physiology, medical terminology, psychology, algebra, computers etc.  I did this at my local community college.  Then I entered an x-ray program, and we again studied these subjects, but it was more geared towards how they related to the x-ray field.  My x-ray schooling consisted of about 1,700 class room hours and over 2,000 clinical hours.  Upon graduation, I had to pass the state licensing boards, then the national licensing boards.  There really are not many school based programs for CT scanning.  You must be a registered RT.  Normally, you get your training on the job once you've become a RT.  There is a national license for CT, but it is not a requirement.  MRI does not involve radiation, so you do not need your RT license.  But, unless you go to a MRI school (and those are very limited in number), it would be hard to get a job in that field.  There is also a national MRI license, but again it is not required to work in that field.  To find out if your state requires an accredited radiologic program, do a search with your state and "radiologic technologist licensing requirement."  Good luck!


is a hedgehog threatened or not threatened?and why are they threatened or not threatened?

Given European Hedgehogs eat mostly slugs, snails and earthworms  as well as various other invertebrates not noted for clocking up many land-speed records, they just grab the prey with their teeth and chomp them quickly.However, they will go after frogs, snakes, birds eggs and nestlings.  They sniff `em out and eat `em before they get a chance to escape.When hunting snakes they will bite the snake multiple times in order to kill it.A hedgehog`s teeth are supprisingly sharp & vicious looking,I`ve seen many a happy hedgehog waddle around my garden snuffling up his prey at a relaxed walk.(Protein & gentle exercise at the same time...I bet they`re fit)\nHedgehogs can run quite fast if need be, and are supprisingly efficient swimmers too.They have been known to range up to 3 miles in one night.\n\nI can only speak for Great Britain, the European Hedgehog (erinaceus europaeus) is not threatened in my home country.(Unless you`re refering to their habit of curling up into a spiky ball when alarmed.)


I´m only gonna attemp thisbecause it´s kind of late and there´s a chance you´ll have to wait untill tomorow (and I guess you´re cramming). So if you don´t get anyother answers, pick and don´t let it go to waste)\n \nImagine you have a scalar function over R3, that is f(x,y,z). Pressure is a scalar - it is given by a number so there is no direction involved like with force.\n \nA pressure field can be defined as P = f(x,y,z) where the point (x,y,z) defines a point in space.\n \nA gradient, is a vector in space, that is, for a given point, e.g. (10, 20, 15), a gradient is a vector that could be (1, 5, -20). The thing is that the gradient points in the direction that you would have to follow if you were at (10, 20, 15) that would lead you to the maximum increase in the field (in this case, in presure). It also indicates the intensity of the increase (kind of like a derivative).\n \nAn example in the body can be given by the presure in the femur when you stand (on one leg). (These examples are acctually hard to give, because bio-mechanics is very complex; there is hidro-dinamics, flector moments etc. and few cases of hidro-statics or simple compression.) At the top end of it, it receives all the weigh of the body minus the weight of the leg. The pressure is that weight divided by the area of cross section at that point (extreme over simplification here). As you go down towards the middle of the femur, two things happen:\n1) the weight above the cross section increases;\n2) most important, the cross section reduces.\n \nSo we know that as you go down the pressure (force / area) increases. So the gradient along this part of the femur would be a vector pointing down.\n\nHope this was clear (and correct) enough.


Why is it that when we were children we couldn't wait to grow up, then as adults we wish we were kids again?

As children we don't have the knowledge to understand the stress and responsibility of adults, only the freedoms they possess. As adults we have all the stress and responsibility and want the carefree life of a child.  There is a way to have both as an adult.  Be happy with what you have, don't work too hard to be who you are not, and if you feel like doing something fun and spontanious, do it.  Life truly is too short,  I'm a responsible older man that provides for my family pretty well, but I'm just a kid at heart!  I let the kid out to play every day, and it feels great!\n\nHave A Great day

How to solve the problem of Gynacomastia ?

Gynecomastia is the excess development of glandular breast tissue in boys and men. Gynecomastia treatment depends on a number of factors. The cause of gynecomastia is the first factor that determines further course of action. There are several causes of gynecomastia including: puberty, steroid use, obesity, a multitude of medications, genetic disorders, tumors, liver problems, and other underlying diseases. \n\nPubertal gynecomastia is a common occurrence, affecting up to sixty percent of boys at this age. If gynecomastia is the result of pubertal development, the condition will usually resolve itself within a year or two, and no medical gynecomastia treatment is necessary. Gynecomastia treatment may not be necessary if the underlying cause of the condition is drug use. Generally, gynecomastia can be resolved in these cases by discontinuing the medication. \n\nIf gynecomastia is determined to be the result of an underlying disease, such as hyperthyroidism, hepatic conditions, or hypogonadism, gynecomastia treatment might involve treating the underlying condition. Often times, gynecomastia is resolved with this treatment of the underlying disease. Mild gynecomastia that can only be detected by a medical exam may also not require gynecomastia treatment. \n\nGynecomastia treatment involves a relatively safe and effective plastic surgery procedure. This treatment is growing evermore popular because of its affordability and desirable results. If a person is considering gynecomastia treatment, a plastic surgeon will be able to evaluate their condition to determine if they are a good candidate for plastic surgery. \nGynecomastia treatment also depends on the duration of a patient's symptoms. \nOKAY??


the women is 38 years old with many exclusively classic and complete symptoms of bdp- a true case study with great abandonment issues and a deep, deep denial mechanism.  She has just 'lured' me in with trust to open up again and she just had an angry outburst filled with twisted reality-all meant to blame me and deflect the root problems.  She usually has outburst of anger lasting four to five days with which she barely will apologize and compromise on the reality of what and why it happened.  She exhibits little remorse and is very protective of her emotions.  Family history is filled with bdp and abuse. She also has an eating disorder, has slept with an adolescent client, engaged in lesbian relations for a few years, now exclusive to men, and has been in most relationships with addicts of some sort. She admits that she manipulates her therapists and has stopped seeing her most recent one.  She actually is a certified Marriage and Family Therapist currently practicing.

Speeking from someone who knows, I have BPD & an eating disorder and bi-polar. My husband goes throgh exactly what u are.I too have ngaged in bi-sexual acts, and too have slept with someone under 18, & I was 31. I myself just like to be left alone for awhile and then I seem to come around eventually. For me medication is my therapy, though I do go to one-on-one sessions.\nIs she on any meds? That might help.\nGood Luck


i know how to lose weigt. but any one know if i can lose weight by weiring a lifting belt. its a belt that body lifters were. its like a belt but bigger. i think that it acts like a corset. do u think that this can make me lose some weight if i tighten it around my stomich for a whole day

corsets and belts like that just make you look skinnier, they do not make you loose the weight.


Yes, I bought a bracelet of gemstones and it did not have 10kt or 14kt stamped on it. The lady said it was covered with gold over top sterlin silver. It had 825 CHINA stamped on it. I want to know is the gold suppose to be real and will not fade.

It is stamped "825 China" probably because it is made in China. The 825 is the code for Continental Silver (European) and it means the alloy contains 82.5% Silver.\nThe millesimal fineness (a system of denoting the purity of Platinum, Gold and Silver alloys by parts per thousand of pure metal in the alloy) for 14 carat Gold is 585 and for 10 carat Gold is 417, therefore the Gold jewelry would be stamped accordingly.


Me: Nothing $0.00 Absolutely not.\n\nStop complaining and be grateful you have one.


i live in texas and my record is terrible i cant afford for this ticket to go on my record

My husband got charged with reckless driving after doing 84 in a 55.  He was advised to hire a lawyer, which he did, even though it was a misdemeanor charge.  The lawyer got it reduced to speeding, and he had to pay a much smaller fine.  Far fewer points on his record too.  But of course, lawyers cost money, so in the end, he ended up paying the same amount.  But the advantage was the reduction in points on his record.  I have heard some cases in which the lawyer can get the charge dismissed entirely.  So, this might be a good route for you.


What withholding rate is applied to sign on bonuses?

For federal purposes 25% if under $1 million, but 35% over $1 million.  States will vary on their respective withholding tax rate.


I know there are gloves, but I don't see many rockclimbers wear them, especially in the summer, even when their hands get blistered and callused...

I've seen a few climbers use gloves, but they are significantly the minority, due to the gloves making it impossible for you to get a feel for the rock, which is why I don't use them.  Chalk gives you protection from moisture and to a much less extent temperature of the rock and friction.  But primarily, your best protection is to just keep going it until the calluses develop.


Not only is it bad it's gross and really creepy.

well i have to get a model of the process of celluar respiration inside the mitochondria showing the steps.

Cellular respiration is the process of oxidizing food molecules, like glucose, to carbon dioxide and water. The energy released is trapped in the form of ATP for use by all the energy-consuming activities of the cell.\nThe process occurs in two phases:glycolysis, the breakdown of glucose to pyruvic acid; the complete oxidation of pyruvic acid to carbon dioxide and water.\n\nIn eukaryotes, glycolysis occurs in the cytosol. The remaining processes take place in mitochondria. \n\nsee link.

You need to enable your WEP security feature in your WiFi Access Point. \n\nDepending on the brand you are using, there are different methods of accomplishing this task.\n\nOnce you have enabled WEP security, you will be generated a "key" to give to those other people whom you want to access your access point. This will prevent those unwanted bandwidth leeches from accessing your internet bandwidth.

It is part of the rebalance of pride.  Black slaves were beaten like dogs and worked like well slaves under the rule of whiteman. They lost their sense of self worth during this time and is slowly rebuilding it now.\n\nIt is a shame we can't be equal (and No We Are Not All Equal) and color blind. But it's the way it is today.  The majority of childhood hero's are white, all the presidents are white, and most entertainers today are white (though this is changing the most with music and hiphop).\n\nBlacks are just a guilty for the lack of integration as the whiteman. But the over compensation of pride black youth has today will continue to hinder most interraccial relationships for years to come.

I caught my ex cheating on me. We were together for a few years. We are no longer together. I know all his friends pretty well, and his aquintances. There have been 3 of his friends that Ive been interested in the past year of us being split up, they said they were interested in me too, but over time nothing came about because of the "guy code". I have not been physical with any of them. I cant help but like these guys because Ive known them for so long. Its not a revenge issue. Is the guy code an exscuse to not date me, or would a man really feel uncomfortable dating his buddy's ex?

Some people, men or women feel uncomfortable dating the ex-es of friends.   There is no formal code.

I have an old AMEX travelers check and my bank would not take it for deposit.

I think they never expire and your bank has made a mistake.\n\nHere is a snippet from the link below:\nAmerican Express Travellers Cheques are accepted around the world. A wide variety of stores, restaurants and hotels accept them, as well as banks, other financial institutions, currency exchanges and American Express Travel Service locations. Or you may prefer to exchange your Travelers Cheques for local currency free of charge at over 86,000 locations around the world. And, since they never expire, you can save unused Travellers Cheques for your next trip.


My husband loves The Ultimate Fighting Championship and so I have grown to like it. Any other ladies like that show? Who's your favorite fighter past or present?

I love it.  I dont think my hubby and me have missed a pay per view.  I wish we had more friends into it to invite over on fight night.  I cant wait until the new season starts of the ufc series.  My favorite all time fighter has to be Ken Shamrock.


this is an illness that has to do with blood and is mainly in African Americanss which effect bones

Sickle Cell Anemia is an inherited disorder in one of the proteins in red blood cells.  As a result, the red blood cells  deform into sickle shapes and clog up the works.  It affects a lot more than bones, but bone disease is one result.  Note that there is milder form called "sickle cell trait," which is not as severe at all.


I thought they had parole in the federal prisons but i guess not!!

The CCCA abolished parole for inmates convicted of crimes after 1987 (I think) but largely this was a law that would (in an attempt to 'get tough on crime') institute sentencing guidelines that were mandatory.  You can read more about this law at the site below

I have a crush on one of my best friends brothers. I have kissed him a few times but he told me not to tell his sister. He told me it would all come out in time. What should I do? Just pretend like I don't have feelings toward him and act like a silly girl gone crazy over the captin of the football team that she can never have, but always dreams about having.

Talk to this boy & let him know that keeping this from your best friend is making you feel bad about the whole situation. In a way you're lying to your best friend & talking to this boy will help you figure out what the both of you want to do. I'm sure he's afraid of letting it all out in the open as well is just making sure that both of you are truly into one another. Talk to her about & see if she's okay with it. If she's truly your best friend she will be happy for you & her brother.


On some Topps baseball cards I just bought, the names of the players and their team are printed in silver on the front of each card. On half of the cards in my pack, the silver printing didn't print on all the way, and you can't read the names. Are they worth more?

Actually, they are worth less. Fiending baseball card addicts typically shave off the slight amounts of aluminum, silver, gold, and platinum foil, with X-Acto knives and store in a mason jar. Separated by metal, of course. It takes about 1,440 packs of 1999 Upper Deck, for example, to fill a mason jar to the top with platinum foil. For the methodical devotion to process the average baseball card junkie displays in order to meet this goal, his rate of return is huge. That same mason jar of platinum metal, the metal which the addict himself shaved off the baseball card and which, all told, weighs 6.7oz. (=/- .15oz.) and can fetch upwards of $670,000 on the international market. This same level of gold is worth about $235,000; silver $62,760; aluminum $.06\n\nIt is possible that a baseball card abuser removed much of the foil before the cards were packaged. Unfortunately, it is true that abusers and addicts have been infiltrating baseball card factories with greater and greater frequency, ever since the 1993 Topps Black Gold debacle. While it is possible that a junkie or freak got to the cards before you, it is also just as likely that a simple manufacturing error produced the inferior cards you now have undoubtedly encased in crystal screw-down protectors. Either way, go ahead and take them out of the protectors because, since your cards in their current state have little value to the baseball card junkie who is always looking for a way to finance his addiction (witness his huge collection of baseball card paraphernalia), you will likely never be able to sell it at a show, to your local dealer, or on ebay. These cards are for personal use only.

From the answers I recieved for my previous question, I learned that if the cyst ruptures, it does not cause infertility but causes a lot of pain. But i forgot to mention that the cyst that I have is a complex one as found from ultrasound. So, PLEASE give me more information.

Hi again.  That does change things a bit, doesn't it?  A complex ovarian cyst needs to be evaluated further.  A small percentage of these can be cancerous.\n\n"Sometimes cysts are complex, either containing partly fluid elements and partly solid elements or having septations (walls) within a fluid-filled cyst. In general, complex cysts are evaluated further, as some complex cysts may be cancerous. Depending on exactly how the cyst looks on ultrasound, your doctor may recommend blood work, a CT or MRI scan to get a better look at the cyst, or even surgery to remove the cyst. Many times a complex cyst can be evaluated via laparoscopy, but sometimes a large abdominal incision is required."  http://health.ivillage.com/gyno/cysts/0,,4ltl,00.html\n\n"With a complex one they would remove it and evaluate it for ovarian cancer."  http://www.baymoon.com/~gyncancer/library/blqa32septcyst.htm \nIf it was my body, since the cyst is not a simple cyst, I would have it removed.  If it were truly a simple cyst, with NO malignant characteristics on ultrasound, I would leave it and see if it remedied itself.  But, it sounds like there are no guarantees that this mass is benign.  So, in my opinion, it does not matter if it ruptures or not.  A cancer is a cancer, and I would not like to have that uncertainty in my body.


I USE TO GO ON A SATURDAY BUT GOD MOVED ME TO SUNDAY.DO YOU SEE THIS WRONG AS MY FAMILY DOES.THEY ALL THINK IM GOING TO HELL.

In Christianity, the Sabbath is a weekly religious day of rest as ordained by the fourth of the Ten Commandments. The Hebrew word ("šabbāth", שַׁבָּת) means "the [day] of rest (or ceasing)," as it entails a ceasing or resting from labor. The institution of the Sabbath was in respect for the day during which God rested after having completed the Creation in six days, (Genesis 2:2-3).\n\nOriginally denoting Saturday, the seventh day of the week, or, more precisely, the time period from Friday sunset to Saturday sunset, the term Sabbath can now mean one of several things, depending on the context and the speaker:\n\nSaturday, as originally, in reference to Jewish or historical observance; \nSaturday, as above, as a day of observance for some Christian groups; \nSunday, as a day of observance for various other Christian groups. \nsaturday and sunday as a day of relaxing. \nThe word is also infrequently used to describe the annual Holy Days observed by several Christian groups, also called High Sabbaths or High Day Sabbaths (John 19:31): the First and Last Days of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, Pentecost, the Feast of Trumpets, the Day of Atonement, the First Day of the Feast of Tabernacles, and the Eighth Day of the Feast.


I'm a 15 year old girl, and I have a gay frien at school. people don't know he's gay, and when they see us together, they misunderstand. I can't leave him alone, because he has no other friends! But if I keep on walking around with him,  I can lose my boyfriend, and my school friends! Oh, and by the way, he doesn't want anyone to know he's gay :( PLEASE HELP ME :(

It's tough on your friend, being gay.  He feels outcast, different, and under a microscope.  He doesn't want anyone to know most likely because he feels that he will be picked on, made fun of, or worse.  He's probably not comfortable with his orientation, either.  He may not have the acceptance at home from his family.  If you're his 'only' friend, then you have a big responsibility.  It would be good to get him into a group of others that don't care about sexual orientation or whatever else.  It's all part of growing up and being more accepting of those around you - you seem to have it mastered.  As far as your bf is concerned.  You need to be truthful with him and not raise any doubts in his mind.  If you care enough about him, then be honest.  Keep the conversation confidential, and be honest with your friend, too.  If you're honest with him as well, he'll trust you more.  Good luck, and God bless.  Be safe and study hard...  :-)


ive been thinking about getting a E-Grip for my A-5.  i dont know to mucha bout the e-gripp.  i was woundering if there is a way to just use it on semi auto with out using the battery

that is true.  if you dont like that then get a responase trigger kit.  it uses excess co2 to power the trigger and gets faster than the egrip.  plus it is cheaper


The question refers to when the accused then refuses to plead guilty to the original charge. Additionaly does anyone know what an excuse of 'duty to the court' by the solicitor means?

A duty to the court means just that.  ie If you tell your lawyer you killed someone but then under oath state that you didn't kill someone your lawyer has a "duty to the court" to inform the judge that you just lied since your lawyer is acting as an officer of the court.  This could be the reason they would withdraw since you've already told them you commited the crime and they would have a duty to the court to tell them you were lying if you said otherwise under oath.


I have given it some thought. The bible says that satan was cast out of heaven into the bottomless pit. I also says in the book of revelation that satan comes out of the water. that he has many heads and stuff. it sound like the Loch Ness Monster. After all they say that the loch is too deep and dark to get to it. WHY, when we can send a robot to almost every planet. what do you think is the loch ness monster really satan waiting. jessica 12yrs

No, it is a myth.  But, it's a cool idea.  I'm sure someone will pick it up, write a book about it and make lots of money making people believe it.


i did prospetive study about 140 cases diagnosed clinicaly cerebral palsy with cooperation of radiology department we did CT scan to thoese cases& got result we want to compare with other studies

Lost my Cut, Copy and Paste Buttons under "Edit".  How to restore?

If you just select edit and look for cut, copy and paste, they will not be there.  You have to highlight some text or image first.


Dear Pointsreaper, I am completely shocked at the apparent complete injustice that has been done to you. It looks like somebody had a vendetta against you and reported everything you ever posted. That really isn't fair and this whole site is being taken way too seriously. I don't know what to say except keep fighting. BTW, I guess every Q I have asked falls under the 'polling'or 'chatting' category. Kick ME off too Yahoo! Buncha crap!


There is only one correct answer...\n\nYBYSAIAM....

i have not thought of this is almost 25 years. wow you bet...


ok...i found out my problem is this common winfixer "virus". however...i have not installed it. evry time it asks...i say no..so how could it be slowing my pc?? i had this problem before with something similar, only i made he mistake of installing it.  this time i did not..and it is still causing some slight problems.  advice or recommendations??? thx.

NOOOOOOOOOOO!! DON'T DO IT!!!\n\nI kept getting that stupid popup and kept clicking No. But if you don't READ THE LITTLE BOX CAREFULLY when it pops up after you click X, you could get nailed... cuz it says, "Click OK to download and install while you continue browing the Internet." I warned my kids, but didn't have a chance to warn my husband... and he must have clicked it while playing around online 6 days ago.\n\nAfter he'd been online for an hour or so, the system suddenly, WITHOUT warning, started shutting down and saying it was reformatting Windows. There was NOTHING we could do to stop it. It took about 30 minutes, and the system finally came back up - like an almost clean slate. Windows had been "fixed" - reinstalled. ALL my registries, License keys, settings, gone. All my previously deleted unwanted windows programs, back. EVERYTHING from My Documents - gone, wiped out, starting from scratch! I lost ALL my digital camera pics, poof - irreplacable pics of my kids! And almost 4,000 mp3 files I paid for and DL-ed, or copied off my huge CD collection, gone. Because My Documents is a Windows-based folder! Most things saved on my basic C:/ drive survived, but needed reinstalled and lost keys retrieved. I'm still cleaning up the mess, and have hundreds of CD's in piles around me right now. :(


"I once broke a promise to myself and have never gotten over it. I just can’t trust me with anything anymore. Not even with the smallest things. This is some serious resentment I have built up towards myself, but it does help to talk about it."


I am an international student from India. I have got admission in 5 universities out of 7 i have applied to and i am still counting on the other two. My best admit is IIT Chicago. I want to know why people at embassies reject student visas. It gives a life-time opportunity to study at best university in USA and I should be allowed to fulfill my dream of obtaining a MS degree from state-of-the-art institution. What are the major causes on which they reject students.

In my humble opinion, you shouldn't lose your chance to attend a University that accepts you for admission.  However, unfortunately right now, international students are having a very difficult time coming & staying in the United States with all of the immigration/visitation concerns since the 9/11 attacks. American universities are asking the same question as you are.  Hopefully the policies of this government will change enabling you to come here for education.  Good luck to you!


I would like to know the proper etiquette a bride should follow if my bridesmaid wants to bring date to the wedding.  Should she be allowed to do so?

If she is in a SERIOUS relationship, yes, her significant other should be invited, but a "date", no. Weddings are great places to meet new people and singles should be glad for such a target rich environment! \nYou are not at all obliged to let guests bring guests of their own, not even the members of the wedding party.


How did you decide what religion to be?  \nIf you are a Christian, how did you decide what denomination to be?  \nDid you take the denomination or religion you were born into and simply trust what you were told?  Did you choose the nearest church or holy temple?  \nFor the Christians; did you search through the thousands of alternative denominations that are out there to try to find the one that most matches the beliefs you hold in your heart and the details in the Bible?

My major decision is already written about and revealed in a lucid and brief blog entry at:\n\nhttp://spaces.msn.com/up-escalator/Blog/cns!DEEDEA79C3C4F8C3!105.entry\n\nYou will find there some information about churches and denominations and the value of the hymns handed down over the many generations since Christ visited here.\n\nI strongly recommend having good Christian friends whose conduct reflects progress beyond the kindergarten, never advancing dogma found in some denominations.\n\nI have found some wonderful friends in various groups.  Their sole common denominator is being a truth seeker.  Otherwise, they may be old or young, Mormon or Jewish, Asian, Black, Hispanic, Presbyterian, Catholic or whatever.\n\nBe careful when sharing with dogmatic and doctrinaire clergy and church members who are not on the road towards expanding enlightenment.\n\nBe careful of groups and group leaders who adapt religion towards approving conduct you suspect is not properly Christian.\n\nIt is far more important to find truth than to condemn others.\n\nMy own plan is to continue sharing the greatest and some lesser known truths in ways that shed new light and are likely to have the benefit of increasing the general level of enlightenment -- thus enabling everyone to move up by finding better light to guide their steps.\n\nNo one really changes in response to those who start condemning errors and ignorance.  \n\nI have some respect for all religions and peoples.  The world would be far worse without the spiritual progress which all major religions have produced.\n\nAlso, if you have a son or daughter of your own whom you are trying to help, it is better to teach what is valuable and useful, true, good and beautiful rather than to start making a list of everything he/she has wrong, or does wrongly, or that you do not like and starting to condemn it.\n\nHave faith in the power of real truth.  It needs no defense.  People will be drawn towards it, and eventually all things true, good and beautiful will prevail for all peoples.\n\nNever abrogate free will, a major gift of God, and one that enables us to be co-creators with God of our group and individual destinies.


Yes I know that one side opposes it and the other one is for it... are there any good sites where I can get information about it... fir instance what kind of language they use to support thier side?

Pro-abortionists will say that the unborn baby is a product of conception.  This allows them to not have to deal with the baby issue.  They want to say that pro-lifers are anti-choice....that they are against a woman having the right to choose what happens to their body.  I think the pro-murder or anti-life (I will call them that as they like to use the anti-choice moniker) advocates don't understand that pro-lifers are trying to speak up for the choice of one who cannot be heard...the baby!  The argument that I like to use, from a Biblical sense is that God says He knew us before we were born and that He knit us together in our mother's womb.  This indicates that He began life before our actual birth.  The argument that the baby is just a product of conception...it is true.  A baby is a product of conception, the only one...you conceive a baby!  It is not the baby's fault that you made a mistake, that you were irresponsible or that some sick bas...d went and did something to a woman that he should be strung up by his ba..s for!  That baby is innocent!  The woman who aborts a baby is also, often, wracked with guilt in their later years over what they did.  Why inflict an additional pain on some poor girl/woman who has been raped, etc.?  It is illegal to break an eagle's egg because it is living and the bald eagle is endangered, but it is legal to kill a human infant in the same state...what kind of sick logic is that?


I need the answer for a question I have for homework.

Because the air particles reflects different colors from light. The blue color wavelengths are so long that we see them without seeing the other colors.\n\nAt least that's what I remember, I think.\n\nAnd the sea looks blue because of the reflection from the sky. If you run your sink, the water is not blue. D:


What do you think of border agents in San Diego county(El Centro) taking bribes then driving the illegal immigrants to LA?

I think they should be tried, sentanced and put in jail. You people don't seem to see the big picture here. You think they're helping mexican immigrants. But as we increase the amount of people in this country who A.) don't vote, B.) Don't register C.) Don't pay taxes because they don't want to register for a social security number D.) Don't want to learn english because the bleeding hearts of this country want to help them.....this country will have to lean more and more on those of us who ARE legal. ARE paying taxes ARE keeping the money we earn at our jobs INSIDE this country. Taxes will have to go up to compensate. And who do you think are taxing our medical systems for care because they don't pay medical insurance? And good luck paying for your bleeding heart through your pocket.


have u gone tubing or some other snow sport

I live in Denver and have been skiing at Breckenridge, Keystone, and Winter Park. All three are great restors and a bit cheaper than Vail, which is mostly tourists. But- I think it is Tom Hanks who has a vacation home in Vail- I may be wrong though.


house has been lived in by them for 12 years,

If the sell of the home is in the same year of your dad's passing, then up to $500,000 of the gain from the sell would be excluded from your mom's gross income.  If it is the year after, then the exclusion will be up to $250,000 of the gain.\n\nIf the house was part of community property, then one-half of the home would get a step-up in basis to the Fair Market Value of the home on the date of your dad's passing.  So, you might not have that much gain, leaving you well below the exclusion limit.\n\nHope this helps, and I'm sorry to hear about your loss.

Thank you for your reponse. But my question was not really answered. His SED rate is still 120 after about 5 weeks. What is the therapeutic range everyone is talking about. Yes blood work is getting done to make sure his van levels are ok. Can not re-culture the site of infection. It was or is in his back, they will be taking out the staples tomorrow. So the wound will be closed up. I am just not sure what will determine when or if the infection is gone. He feels good no apparent sign of infection. Red cells are a little low, white cells are good. His iron is down. Any help please

Sed Rate range differ depending on gender and age.  The best thing for you to do is talk to your doctor about your concerns. Wounds with mrsa that have closed are difficult to detect if the mrsa is gone.  I work in a facility and deal with mrsa from time to time. There are different types of mrsa. from the lungs to the urine. I asked one of our doctors about mrsa in the wound and how someone can tell if the mrsa is gone and she told me that there is no 100% way of knowing. Usually when the wound closes and the patient has been treated properly with antibiotic (usually vancomycin) it is considered to be treated. If the wound heals with no signs and symptoms of infection (no swelling or redness) then there is no infection.  She also told me that everyone has a small amount of mrsa in the body. It is the level of mrsa that the person needs treated.  If his red blood cell count is low and iron is down it might be good to have him on an iron deficiency otc med. He might be anemic.  The best advice I can give you is ask your family physician and also your surgical doctor of your concerns. This is also why they get paid.  I hope I helped you in some way.


im doing a report on Nepal for my Civics class!

The shape of the Nepalese flag is two triangular. This shape of the flag makes it unique in the world. The body of the flag is read in colour and the border of the flag in blue in colour. There is a sketch of the moon in the upper triangle and in the lower triangle there is a sun (previously the sun used to have eyes and mouth making it look like the face of a human). \n\nThe red color of the flag denotes the blood of the Nepalese. We Nepalis are also known are Gorkhalis who are popular in war. Our ancestors gave their blood in war to protect our country. Red is also the sign of heat. It also represents the heat and anger in the Nepalese people.\n\nThe blue color of the flag represents seas and rivers of Nepal as Nepal is the second richest country in water resources. The blue colour also represents cold mountains. \n\nThere is a sketch of the sun and moon as they are regarded as gods in Nepal.


I need to find someone above the local staff at a human services child protective agency.  If anyone knows of a number to call I really need it these people have had two complants of child abuse about the same child and they just keep saying that there is nothing that they can do and now the new reason is because now the father has finally excepted services to get his son some help with a counselor and now these people are just going to sweep it under the rug again and I need to stop them and get this child out of the home.

Get a good custody attorney.  If you can't afford one than what you need to do is inspect your children for signs of abuse every time they come back from their father and photograph any injuries, or take them to a doctor and have the doctor's office do it.  They should photograph any injuries that may be a result of abuse which you can later use in court. If you suspect sexual abuse than this is especially important. \n\nGoing directly through Human services for this is a bad idea.  Social workers have huge caseloads and they are getting very critical of reports of child abuse because 60% of all cases are unfounded.  In addition there have been cases where over zealous social workers take the kids and sort the mess out later which means that your child could end up in foster care until you go to court.


Not the movie. \nDo you know where I can get a picture?   what is it?  What can it do?

A Skinwalker shapeshifts into other creatures.  It's part of the AmerIndian culture and Shamans are most likely do it during ritual.  Generally, the Skinwalker goes on an astral journey during which he/she will take on the form of an animal -- most likely their Spirit Animal.  Skinwalkers are not an "entity" but a person who takes on the aspects of animals.  They have very powerful medicine.\n\nFunny (as in funny odd, not funny haha) story:  I spent a lot of time with an elderly Blackfoot who told me I dance with spirits.  I guess I don't get to skinwalk which may be why I have incredibly poor eyesight in spite of my Spirit Animal being the owl.  I have often wondered why my vision is so incredibly lousy with an owl as a Spirit Animal. LOL


When i start to watch a video, i will get the pictures like normal for about 5 seconds and then it freezes, but i still have sound, and it will play through the movie like normal.  Most of my other movies play normally.  Im running windows XP  on a Sony Viao laptop, and have the up to date .AVI codecs.  I've tried to install a different video player and that doesn't work either.  Any idea what it could be?  Thanks.

Maybe from the video card, but I think it's because of the codecs, get Ace Mega Codec pack and make shure you have DivX installed. Rarely, you may find a movie encoded with a codec that is not that popular, maybe that's your problem.


sumthing is seriously wrong here, isnt it


Can we really believe everything in the bible? Or should we take the good and reject the bad?

Of course they did since most of the made up the fact that they were prophets to begin with and were faking it!  I don't believe in prophets or god so I don't think any of them were real.  One for sure I know wasn't because he declared himself to be the prophet of one religion when their holy book said there would be no more then when he was rejected by the followers he created his own religion.  Nice fake job that one!  I chalk most of them up to delusional disorders.


du u kno how do put pics on yahoo pictures???

Yes. I have used photos.yahoo.com and I have couple of albums in there.

my friend needs to get a mammogram and a breast ultra sound can u tell how much  they cost for each under blue cross blue shield insurence?

Those are free after age 40 but before hand well that is not a thing you can just go down and get. You have to have a Doctors order to get one. There are some places that are privet that can do it but your insurance wont cover this kind of thing its not expensive at all they just take the study and you have the choice to have it read by a doctor that works for them know that costs allot trust me.  You also can just take it to your own Doctor and he can read it as well. You need to check it out call your local hospital talk to the Radiology Department and they will turn you in the right direction. Oh talk to the File room they deal with everyone from Lawyers to Doctors around the USA. \n\nWarning....You may have to drive a bit to get to a place if you dont live in a major city.

As a kid, I remember seeing in an Omar Sharif movie a splendid Arabic salute. Traveling the world, I've met people saluting in the (so to speak) "traditional Salaam manner", by accompanying a low bow with a hand touching the forehead. The thing is, as I remember (from that unknown movie), while performing the bow, the hand was touching the chest, the mouth and only then the forehead. What is the significance of this "touching points" in this salute, and which one is the real one: the simple one, or the complex one?

I would have thought that it was a way of saying:\n\nI love you (chest) - in that Peace kind of love\nI will only speak well of you (mouth)\nI will only think well of you (forehead)\n\nDon't know for sure, but that is what I imagine.

You could speak to your local Child Support Agency about having the jurisdiction changed. You could also obtain from your state Government the rules governing child support in that state. You could also try contacting your local representative in the state Assembly. You might also want to consult with your lawyer about starting procedures. Given that you have lived there for 15 years, you would have a good case for a change.

I believe that when we push our bounderies of understanding and learn about the universe around us, we become better equiped to improve our lives here on earth. Many believe it should be spent on helping people here on earth. What do think?

Space exploration do help people here on earth.  The construction of all those space equipment employ people to build the equipment, and to cloth and feed those people who actually are building the equipment.  The new space technoloy is also used here on earth.  Technology like computers and the internet.  Without space exploration Yahoo and that other competitor--Google most likely would not exist today.


I just want to help people appreciate how good most of us have life in the US. I'm looking for a description of what a person who is starving goes through.  A first person account would be best, medical descriptions may also be helpful.

i thinkt that that show is absolutely amazing.  i've considered going on that show but my husband says that i'm not heavy enought to go on it.  which is a compliment, i guess.  the changes in those people are so amazing.  i bought the dvd workout of the biggest loser, but i just can't get myself to modivate.  how can i do that?

It's such an inspiration to everyone, even people who aren't obiese. You have to realize that it is not just a temparary diet or quick try to get in shape, it's a lifestyle change and you have to commit yourself. It's for a better you.

You have not stated how small the bank is, thus I am not sure if you have any electronic banking.  Basically, if you can migrate your transactions from the counters to automatic machines or online services, that will surely be cost savings.  You may consider charging inactive accounts!


Does anyone else feel like they don't have enough information to back up an argument? Can your sense of humour just disappear suddenly? I used to have one, I don't know where it's gone.

Sound like you have a problem . . . go see a doctor . . . and get your head examined.


The man carried an umbrella and the woman didn't and if it was going to rain, the man moved forward and it it was to be sunny, the woman moved forward. If possible, could I get this on the internet? What price would they be?

I would say to do a search on ebay...\nThey have everything in the world there at reasonable prices...\nBut be careful that you don't give out your credit card number to just anyone...\nI always pay with a money order on things I buy there...\nSafer to pay that way...

If you mean is it scriptural in the sense of, "Does the Bible lay out the church lectionery, Years A through C inclusive?" No, the Bible does not do that. \n\nBut keep in mind that Christianity is more than the Bible, and the Bible is not an idol. Yes, St. Basil's liturgy is not in the Bible, but then, neither are altar calls.\n\nThat said, you certainly can find a forty day fast in the Bible (Jesus' 40 days in the desert), and you certainly find a rather detailed description of one specific Passover circa 33 A.D. that had a rather powerful effect on history!\n\nLent evolved from a tradition of the earliest church - converts (catechumens) would be baptized on Pascha (Easter.) For the forty days prior, the converts were expected to fast and prepare themselves mentally and spiritually for their baptism. Later, people who were already Christians would join with the catechumens, in solidarity with their fast - the whole church would fast for their baptism at Pascha.\n\nNow - yes - this practice is strictly speaking not in the Bible. But neither are church bulletins, televangelism, Amy Grant songs, or church organs. That doesn't reflect badly on any of these things. It permits, rather, the church to continue to be innovative in finding new ways to praise God, whether these be 2nd century devotional traditions, or 21st century devotional traditions.


Please Sb tell me a new Free Anti filter site,I need a very powerful and new one

The answers you seek are found deep in the secrets of The Da Vinci Code! According to the Knights Templar who frequented this site you would need to place the monitor exactly 26.5 inches from your face. Spin around in your chair twice while chanting "website loves me, this I know." Now place your left hand on the numeric keypad. If you want to press one, press two. If you need to press 3 push 4. If you are obsessive compulsive press 7 repeatedly. You should now be in the third level of defeat. Don't let it get you down. They buried their secret trove of treasure within an Antifilter Temple, it's tough to get to. There are symbols on the US Dollar pointing to an ancient map on the back of the Constitution too, but that's only a myth.

Think about this one first. Do you take for granted the fact that you can talk to your partner on a daily basis? I don't mean about feelings or emotions...just everyday conversation? My husband is away, on a five month long cruise in the Navy, so the only way we can talk is through e-mail. I was thinking about this one last, wondering if I took it for granted the fact that I got to just HEAR his voice everyday. I'm just curious if other people out there sometimes think they take their partner's everyday presence for granted.

i used to take that for granted, until my husband got sick...he had hodgkins lymphoma (cancer). for the last couple months, he was very ill, and i soaked up every minute i could with him. he has been gone 3 months now, and i still miss the sould of his voice. i have learned to never take your loved ones for granted, you never know how long they will be there.

Accountants are more than just number crunchers. The better part of accounting comes from the analysis and decision-making part which will happen after all the financial statements are made and prepared. A corporation acts upon the intuition accountants give although information from the financial statements are important, the meaning of all those numbers is what matters most.

think about this.... if a person had every man in the world tested to be their father, EXCEPT the real father, wouldn't at least one of them show to be the father? remember.... every man in the world. that's alot of men!

DNA testing has an inherent margin of error, even when done properly.\n\nWhen you hear the results of a DNA test, it's always "there is a 99.874 percent probability he is the father," or "the chances he is not a father is 1 in 3.2 billion" or something like that.\n\nNow, considering that the odds of winning the PowerBall jackpot are 147 million to 1; that about 5 billion tickets are sold every year; and that about 15 jackpots are awarded every year, you can see why a judge, looking at odds 20 times steeper, would be inclined to say, "he's the father."

With all the digital downloads going on (legal and illegal), does anyone still go out to buy an album CD?

I believe sales of the hard product are declining i don't believe its down to the rise in downloading because people have been doing that for years back when people used tapes in the millions its simply down to the record companies and the artists putting out a substandard product.\n\nImprove the music improve sales.\n\nI only buy cds of artists i REALLY like which is not that many so it'll be rare if i buy 4 albums a year and this coming from someone who used to get all the new releases without question.

I have a friend who is having suicidal thoughts, she has problems at work, her mom and sister are making her feel like garbage by putting her down, she also has problems about letting go of a guy who is very bad for her and does not even respect her. She tells me that she can't get over the guy because she loves him too much. Her dad used to beat them up when she was young. I don't know what to do because she refuses to see a professional to talk about her problems and she does not want to tell me everything that is going on even when i try to tell her that i won't judge her. I don't know what to do, can someone please help me.

There is an organization called suicide watch.  Look them up give them a call and speak about your friend. They have there ways of checking up on the person and may even reach out to her. You are not losing out by giving them a call, that is what they are there for. If you can't find their number speak to a social worker who may have other contacts. good luck :-)


my computer is shutting down alone and i guess it's a virus.. so if you can help me with a free anti-virus i'd be very grateful:)

For spyware solutions, Spybot Search & Destroy works very well.  If you are willing to try Microsoft's beta, you can also consider defender.  Both are currently free.\n\nhttp://www.safer-networking.org\nhttp://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=435bfce7-da2b-4a6a-afa4-f7f14e605a0d&DisplayLang=en\n\nAlways remember that an ounce of prevention is worth more than a pound of cure.  That said, do not visit unknown websites, open suspicious emails and attachments, or click on links that you don’t know what it’s for.  Also, always keep your anti-spyware and antivirus programs on.  These simple guidelines will save you from hours of headaches with pop-up ads and computer slow down.\n\nGood luck and have a nice day!


Will we still be allowed to enjoy the things we enjoy now? Like snowboarding, or family time, or volunteering? What are your thoughts?

I seen  your answer, & said to myself, "that sure looks familiar" then seen you gave me credit, it's okay.\n\nIn the coming new paradise nothing will hurt or destroy. There will be perfect peace. All people will be healthy and happy. It will be just as God wanted it to be at the beginning. \n\nGod promises that he will give people who love him the very things that Adam and Eve lost.\n\nDuring Jesus’ Thousand Year Reign, faithful humans will work to turn the whole earth into a paradise. (Luke 23:43) Also, millions of dead ones will be resurrected to human life on the earth. (Acts 24:15) If they do what God requires of them, they will continue to live on earth forever. If not, they will be destroyed forever.\n\nLIFE IN THE RESTORED PARADISE\n\nSickness, old age, and death will no longer exist. \n\n“God himself will be with [mankind]. And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.”—Revelation 21:3, 4.\nCrime, violence, and wickedness will be gone forever. \n\n“As regards the wicked, they will be cut off from the very earth; and as for the treacherous, they will be torn away from it.” —Proverbs 2:22.\n\nPeace will prevail earth wide.\n\n“The righteous one will sprout, and the abundance of peace until the moon is no more.”—Psalm 72:7.\n\nHousing will be secure and work satisfying.  Isaiah 65:21-23. \n\nHealthful food will be available in abundance.  “The earth itself will certainly give its produce; God, our God, will bless us.”—Psalm 67:6.\n\nEverlasting life on a paradise earth will be delightful. “The righteous themselves will possess the earth, and they will reside forever upon it.” (Psalm 37:29) “The wilderness and the waterless region will exult, and the desert plain will be joyful and blossom as the saffron.”—Isaiah 35:1.\n\nAnd "rockchick13" I would imagine you will be able to snowboard because the Scriptures tells us the "four seasons" will exist in Pardise.


I need 8 to 10 suggestions that would be most useful for improving writing skills.  \nThis is a College assignment I am running out of time on.

1. Be concise. Weigh each word to be sure it is truly necessary to conveying your thoughts.\n2. Pay close attention to spelling.\n3. Pay close attention to grammar.\n4. Your first sentence in any paper/story/poem/essay should GRAB the reader's attention and BEG them to read more.\n5. In your descriptions use metaphor and simile, but sparingly.\n6. Read your work aloud. It helps you to "hear" it in the reader's head.\n7. Use ALL of your senses when you write. Not just sight, which is what we tend to lean on heavily. Tell what the item/day/room/person/emotion feels like, smells like, tastes like, sounds like....\n8. Walk away from your work, and come back to it a few times. Helps you see it with new eyes and a new mind.\n9. Write a skeleton, and slowly add muscles, circulatory system, skin, hair. In other words, write and rewrite several times, each time adding new dimensions (description, mood, character development, word choice, transitions...)\n\nGood luck!


i want to write a letter to the tenants, but i don't know, can u help me?

What you put in the letter will depend upon the laws of the city and/or state where you live.\n\nDo your tenants have a lease?  If so, you can write advising them that the lease will not be renewed.  \n\nIf your tenants do not have a lease, then you write advising them that the premises will no longer be available after a set date -  30 or 60 days.\n\nIf your tenants are in violation of the lease, then you need to write a letter citing the violations and then you need to begin eviction proceedings. In most states this process can take between two and six months.


I would like to find any surviving original crew members of the USS Windsor. My father was an original crew member. I would like any information about the crew or the ship itself.

There is apicture on this site, but could not find any info on the crew.\n\n\nUSS Windsor (APA-55), 1943-1946\nUSS Windsor, a 13,143-ton attack transport, was built at Sparrows Point, Maryland. Originally begun as the merchant freighter Excelsior, she was taken over by the Navy while under construction and launched under the hull number AP-100, which was changed to APA-55 by the time she was commissioned in June 1943. After shakedown, the ship went to the Pacific, where she took part in the Marshalls operation in January-February 1944. During the rest of the year she participated in landings on the northern shore of New Guinea in April and May, at Guam in July, Peleliu in September and Leyte in October.\n\nWindsor was overhauled on the U.S. west coast during late 1944 and early 1945. For the rest of World War II, she transported men and materiel between the United States and the central and western Pacific. After the fighting ended in August, she supported the occupation of Japan and took part in Operation "Magic Carpet", the effort to bring U.S. service personnel home from the former war zone. This duty was completed by early January 1946, and Windsor was sent to the east coast where she decommissioned in March. She was turned over to the War Shipping Administration in August 1946 and subsequently had a long career as a merchantman under the names Paul Revere (from 1947) and Expeditor (from 1949). She was scrapped in Taiwan in 1972.\n\nThis page features our only view of USS Windsor (APA-55).


somehow they are reflections of the sun... but it is some place here in earth wherein you really can see many reflections of the sun or mainly our sun...

You can also get weird phenomenons in the desert or other high-temperature places. Pockets of air of different rotation or heat can reflect light in such a manner that objects hangs upside down in the air instead of being behind a hill for example.\n\nNot that I've ever heard of complete suns being visible. The ice-particles can refract into bi-solars, yes, but as I recall you only see parts of the sun on each side of it. Not complete circular "suns".


go goth or emo or gay? why what makes you feel that sick.

Some people seemed to end that way because of their history... their childhood years... some end up to be on the third sex cause they seem to find acceptance and company on that way and not on what they really are before. You may seem to feel sick but you can't blame them... cause some experienced trauma and only recovered on that way. You may not accept them now but think about it cause the world won't be good in fashion without the gays and the world wouldn't have stong women without the lesbians. Everyone seeks their purpose and others find it their.


My Dad was raised Jewish and my Mom was raised as a Christian.  My Dad hasn't practiced since he was young, my Mom raised us as Christians.  What is the correct way to answer the question?

You are not Jewish, as you were raised a Christian, unless you renounce your Christianity and formally convert to Judaism. So, when asked if you are Jewish, the correct answer is, 'No, but my father is.'

trying to get info on "unclaimed.org"  Every site says "this page cannot be displayed".  Is it because it is the weekend?

If its under a lot of load you should get a different message about resource conflict from their server. The page cannot be displayed message means that your browser can't even contact the other site. It probably means their server is off due to a fault, cannot be reached DNS (domain name service) error, or a computer on route to theirs is down. I would guess its most likely their personal servers down for maintanence.


I want to know how often homogenization is used in products besides milk like ketchup and sauces and personal products like lotions. I also want to understand what effect homogenization has on the nutrients in food and the molecular structure of the product and if this effect is significant in any way. Also, does anyone know how the labeling is done on processed foods? Do they test the food to see how much of each nutrient is in it? Do they test it before or after processing?

homogenization is totally safe they just shake the contents, in some cases vegetable gelatins are used to conservate the homogenization, but my guess is that it should be safe.


My neighbor's husband left her for a younger woman. They were married for about 2 years and have 2 children. My problem is that 2 years ago she was the other younger woman that he left his first wife for. The man in question is very rich and gives her barely enough money to live off of and she just sits in the house all day watching soap operas! I have advised her to go back to school which she has done but is not very serious about attending classes. I used to take her shopping and buy things for her and her children but I cannot do that all the time! She does not know how to spend money - her kids go to an expensive private school and half the money she gets from her husband pays for it. She is not skilled to do anything and she is not ready to help herself so what do I do?

It sounds like your friend is depressed! I would suggest that you help her find a religious counselor or someone that she can trust who does professional counseling. Once she has addressed her depression, have her go to legal aid, and see what her rights as a single mother of 2 who has been deserted so her husband (and the father of her children) can pursue an adulterous relationship and how much she is entitled to get legally. \n\nShe may need to join a support group for single mothers, she can learn from others in her own situation. She will get the answers to many questions, there will be others there that will teach her that she MUST attend to basic needs BEFORE she considers tuition to a private school. The money must go for household expenses and bills and food. Then whatever extras that can be afforded (while still trying to hold on to some "emergency money"). There should be health insurance for both of the children and her too, and that can be negotiated in the divorce settlement. If the man is rich, then she should be in good shape once she begins to get her full support and alimony payments, and she learns how to budget her money. \n\nPlease do not be too critical of her failure to be able to pursue her education with enthusiasm right now. Your friend may be in some real trouble emotionally. She may need to talk to someone who deals with people who are depressed.\n\nGood luck, and remember if your friend needs inspiration sometimes the best place to find it is in faith! Learning to trust in herself and to believe that she can do what needs to be done, is something that you cannot buy for her. I believe if you are a good friend, you can help her find the right path, you cannot do it for her though. When you do things for her, she does not have to do them for herself.\n\nGood luck, and my prayers for you and your friend. She does have 2 excellent reasons to live and to heal her broken heart and bruised feelings! Plus she is really blessed to a good friend like you! I am sure that means a lot to both her and her kids too!\nruthie~


I get reported to chexsystem for the checking account ,is it it possible that my account at the credit union can get closed? I don't know if I have been reported yet, but I know my account is frozen. If this happens to get back to the credit union would they close my savings account? I already know I probably won't be able to get a checking account anywhere else, I just need an account to be opened so I can pay off these payday loans. any suggestions?

generally banks won't close an account that is already open and in good standing once you are reported into the chexsystem. There's no way to get out once you're in unfortunately. however there are banks that offer second chance banking once the debt is paid off and you have proof. Wells Fargo is one of those banks.\nAs far as payday loans go, you need to get out of that cycle. It's tough, I know. Been there. But it's trap and you'll have to wean yourself off of it and never look back. AS someone who is in the chexsystem myself, and as someone who once had FOUR payday loans going at one time, I know. I was paying $400 a month to MAINTAIN the debt at one point. That was the same as my truck payment !


Such as air mattresses and other inflatables. This is a science project.

well, it depends what you mean. for air mattresses and inflatables, they actually get heavier. cuz if theyre all folded and everything, then the total weight is just the weight of the object, but if you put air inside, then the total weight would be the weight of the object AND the weight of the air inside (air has a density of 1.1kg/m^3 or something). \nif you mean like, a solid cube of wood compared to a hollow cube of wood (or any other material), then the hollow one would generally weigh less because the density of air is a lot less than most things. if the density of the wood (or whatever) was less than density of air, then it would actually become heavier if you put air inside. \ndensity is the ratio of mass  to volume. \nso a oil has a higher density than water because a glass of oil would weigh a lot more than a glass of water if you had same amounts of both.\nhope this helps. let me know if you need more help. laterz


I understand why a bible is used, or someone's grave, but why is this done at all?  Are you saying that you believe that if you lie after swearing, something bad could happen to the item, so you'll tell the truth to protect it?  Or are you kind of signing a contract saying that you agree to be struck by lightning (if you lie after swearing on the bible), or expect to be visited by rotting revenants (...the grave?)\n\nI'm honestly curious about this.

I feel the The Bible is believed to be the foundation of truth and that those who present it before believe that if you were to touch it, that you are telling the truth because you believe that God's word is true and sacred and that you are using his word as a witness to the truth.  Some people swear on a deceased relatives grave.  For them, it means that they the deceased individual meant a lot to them and that they would never defame their love and resoect for that one dead or alive.  Frankly I don't believe I need to touch anything to convince anyone that I am telling the truth.  I practice being truthful on a daily basis.  Believe me or not, that's up to you.


This disorder becomes obsessive compulsive over time. The same treatments used for that disorder will work on bulimia. Depending on the age of the child, your doctor can prescribe drugs for ocd and it is recommended the patient be taken to a therapist. Body dysmorphic disorder often accompanies ocd.


Gen.19:24[Sodom, Matt.10:15]; Num.16:35[Korah]; Matt.13:27-43[no Word known, John 12:47,48 Word is judge]; 25:31-34,41,46[prepared for the devil and his angels that do not die]? Rev.20:7-9[man is consumed by fire,[10 Satan gets lake of fire]; Acts 2:31[Jesus raised to life out of hell]; Matt.10:28[other a resurrection]; Rev.20:12,13[others];

Hell is and English word which means a hole in the ground. Like a grave. Hades translated hell means the grave.


How many solutions are there i dont get it?

Okay, equations of the form ax^2+bx+c=0 have the discriminant b^2-4ac. In your case a=4,b=-3,c=5. So you have to take (-3)^2-4*4*5=-71. Since the discriminant is negative, you have 0 real solutions. If it were 0, you would have 1 real solution, and if it were positive, you would have 2 real solutions. Hope that helps!


I was watching an interview with Billy Packer on HBO last weekend and at the end Bryant Gumble asked the interviewer if he asked him about Dick Vitale and all the interviewer said was "no" and then chuckled.

I've checked a few blogs and articles these were the best (and most tame) description of the relationship.\n\nFrom http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/05093/482128.stm :\nAre CBS analyst Billy Packer and ESPN Dick Vitale feuding? No. But they're hardly friendly, either. "I've never been to Dick Vitale's house," Packer told reporters earlier this week. "I've never had a meal with him. I think I've talked to him one time on the phone. I've never written him a letter. I've never written him a note. He's never written me a note. "We've never played golf -- I don't even know if he plays golf. The things we have in common -- I understand that he has a great family, a real neat wife -- I have likewise. But that may be the only thing we have in common." The loquacious Vitale insists there is no feud, either. "I have great respect for Billy, I really do," Vitale told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. "I have great admiration for any man who has done what he has done over the past 25 years. We just happen to do it in different styles ..." Packer is calling the Final Four for the 24th consecutive year for CBS.\n\nFrom http://www.controlscaddy.com/A55A69/bccaddyblog.nsf/plinks/CBYE-69G63U :\nHatfields and The McCoys in Durham, NC\nThere is a minor college basketball game going on in Durham, North Carolina tonite. #2 North Carolina is taking on #8 Duke. This tobacco road rivalry is one of the most intense in the country. But this is not the Hatfield/McCoy feud I wish I was there to see. There is an even better dislike under the roof at Cameron tonite with Billy Packer and Dick Vitale under the same roof. Packer does not like Vitale at all because Packer is, well, just Packer (not the most engaging man in the world). Vitale is calling the game for ESPN and Packer for Raycom/JP Sports. Oh to be a fly on the wall with these two men sitting not more than 20 feet from one another.


hey i need help with that because i keep failing my quizzez does anybody know where i can get answers 2 the quizes?

Well one time I got 434 points in one school year. Damn everyone was congratulating me. It's all in the book. My technique is to only read the parts that are interesting. Otherwise I skim. I'm a fast reader.
