does anyone watch that new show? it sucks because it has no subtitles. if you watch it can you let me know what happens because i don't understand korean that well.

It's so cute! The main girl has an identical older sister who was engaged to the main guy (a successful movie director), but the older sister died in a car crash on the day the two were "running away" and the driver of the car was the main guy so he is still traumatized by it and cannot get over the girl even though it has been 3 years since she died. The main girl (Bok Shil) doesn't even know she has another family or had an older sister, but, she later finds out that her mother, who has been raising her ever since she was a baby, is not her real mother until later when all these people start to mistake her as the girl who died 3 years ago and are amazed at their similar appearance. The girl who died (who is her unknown sister) was also from a very rich, powerful family(they are Bok Shil's real family), however Bok Shil was raised all her life in the country by a very poor woman with no husband who is also a little bit mentally challenged. The reason the rich family lost Bok Shil at a young age was because there was a fire that burnt down this restaurant and during the fire they couldn't save Bok Shil. However, the waitress that worked at the restaurant was able to save her (who raised her and pretended to be her real mother till now). The reason her "fake" mother is mentally challenged is because she inhaled some type of gas that damaged her brain while saving the baby (Bok Shil). Okay, so that's only half of the story! I didn't finish it yet. =P

The blister caused to the brain due to accident and the patient was on spot unconscious after monitoring for 72 hours he was sent for surgery to eliminate the pressure from the skull. Patient is still in unconscious but is showing sings of movements. \nTime duration for him to be awake?\nWhat will happen when he is awake to his memory?

You should ask the doctor or surgeon treating the patient.  I wouldn't even guess unless you told me what part of the brain was damaged.

I hear people talk about how interest rates will rise, but the economy seems pretty good. What is the truth about financing our debt through foriegn capital?

The national debt is actually something that is undermining our national security by handing over a very large portion of our economy to foreign powers.\n\nIn international finance, everything is balanced through a very complicated system including value of exported and imported goods, value of currency, value of precious metal reserves (gold & silver), and other valued goods. When the US spends more than it makes as a nation, there are several things that could happend: 1. Other countries step in and "loan" money to the US through the purchase of Treasury Bills (T-Bills); 2. The US dollar is devalued (i.e. goes down compared to other currencies).\n\nRight now, foreign nations are purchasing T-Bills in order to loan the US the money that it spends. Basically, the T-Bill is a note that promises the purchaser that the US Government will pay back the money owed.\n\nThe problem is, when other countries have large amounts of these T-Bills, they effectivly control the US economy by the threat of dumping the t-bills onto the international market. For instance, if China decided that it really didn't want the US to supply arms to Taiwan, it could take all of its T-bills and dump them in the international market. Overnight, the US Dollar would plummet, thus raising the cost of imported goods in the US. The result is that $5 t-shirt made overseas now costs $10. Inflation would be rampant, businesses would shut down, unemployment would rocket up, and the US economy would be in tatters in a matter of weeks.


my sis in laws boyfriend "moved" in with my mon in law-he decided to leave & stay w/ friend-now wants to come back-is mom in law legally allowed to say no-he did change his liscence to mom in laws address-what options does she have to keep him out-what establishes his residency

FL law states that continued residing in a home for a period of 30 days or signing a rental aggrement or lease and residing in said building for 5 days establishes residency.   Can mom-in-law toss him probly....can she refuse to let him back in you bet


Are you just going too do nothing meanwhile they Flock fleece you from every possible angle?

Since USA people mostly care about money, the practice will stop when it no longer makes money for a voting majority, if snyone is rational. Since they are mostly nuts, i doubt they will ever get wise or tire of it until their own ox is gored. Ethics and morality mean nothing to this pack of wolves.

i don't think that they should, only because it is part of their religion... how would you feel if you did something every once in awhile because it was tradition (like christmas or your birthday) and then all of a sudden it was banned? you would still want to do it right? i don't think that they would have to stop


Appearing on VH1's Storytellers, Collins has said that "Sussudio" is an imaginary girl's name. The song is about having a crush on someone when you are young. He used Sussudio as a name to encompass any girl.


Is it good, worth buying, what do they sound like

yeah, they're a mix of the Libertines - the drug abuse + some alcohol - a hangover + a british accent...


We have custody of 2 toddlers. The alleged father is now trying for custody. His name just recently was added to the birth certificates. We are unable to determine how. It is common knowledge in my family that he is a alcholic, is prone to domestic violence, is basically a drifter, and has a long police record for DUI, theft, nonpayment of support on his other children, and fighting. Some of this I have been able to obtain from public record other I know existed but cannot find. The oldest of the 2 boys is lacking in basic education and is in need of special help. We have seen more doctors and specialists in 5 months than they have ever seen before. We are also trying to get them into preschool. All of these things I personally know will not continue if he obtains custody. It is killing me inside that we have come so close to breaking a bad cycle of alcholism, abuse, and violence and now we may lose to the evil again.

Maybe your local child protective services agency can help you. They deal with this sort of thing all the time and can tell you what you need to do. \n\nI would get notarized affadavits/statements from anyone who has information about this man. Also, you can demand a DNA test if there is some doubt about whether he is the father.\n\nGood luck. It sounds like you are the best hope for these children.


what is your personal idea of the sweetest thing that a person could do that would let you know they were "the one?" For me it's that they would dance in the rain with me. I know it's sounds but it would touch me on so many levels. 1, they are willing to take chances, 2, they have a sense of spontaneouity 3, it is romantic, 4, they have a sense of adventure 5, they are willing to take chance on something even if it is something as odd and silly as dancing in the rain and 6, it is symbolic of the fact that they will be there through the good and bad helping me to make the best of a bad situation. I talk too much sorry. But pls answer. What is your personal idea of the main thing that a person can do that would let you know they were the one?

You are looking for the right thing and you keep on talking they are very sweet words \nMine would be to say they love you when you are down and just support you\n\nps in rain is good


Rag weed, all he is good for is to irritate everybody.


I'm not sure if you're asking in general terms or specific ones, but I would recommend:\n\ngeneral: getting students using free blog spaces and encouraging class members to contribute to on-going discussions\n\nspecific: many of the big publishing companies that have TEFL materials (like Macmillan, for example) have websites that offer on-line material focused on business writing techniques and strategies at all levels--so that many of the materials will be appropriate even if your intended audience is made up of native English speakers

I'm 25 years old and just moved to a new town with my boyfriend - he has a bunch of his old friends around and I know nobody.  Now he's gone camping with the guys for the weekend and I can't go because I don't have a pee nis. (I love camping!)  Since I have no friends, I'm stuck at home, by myself, again.  I think I'm depressed.  Any good drugs out there for depressed people?

I doubt that drugs are the answer. You just need to get proactive and get involved in your new community. Start at your local library; see if your town has a newcomer's club. Check out your local community college for adult classes -- meet some new folks over a pottery wheel or ceramics class. Look at Yahoo Groups for groups that are listed in your city, pick a few that match your interests, join and start meeting people. Develop some online friends that you can take anywhere -- consider blogging, chat rooms, etc. If you're into religion, local churches are always involved in activities where you might meet friends. Volunteer! You will be making a difference while meeting others. I know that's a lot to throw at you, but if you think about it, that's how we all make friends. We find people who share our interests, begin with those interests as common ground, then develop a relationship over time. \n\nIf you're really bugged with the boyfriend, you should certainly talk to him about it. Of course, you could also just plan a private camping trip, just the two of you. Try not to be annoyed, though. You will be thankful that he wants to have his own friends when you have a passel of girlfriends and you all want a girls' night out.


think about it.\nthey are mammery glands, that's all.\nwe sure as shi t don't find cows' udders erotic...there are pictures of cow udders all over dairy products, and no one (except for the peta idiots) thinks that it's indecent.\nso why can't women expose their breasts, which really aren't sex organs.  i can understand the religious/cultural taboos surrounding the covering of one's genitals, but, really, who decided breasts were indecent?  half of indiginous africa runs around with them out in the open, and don't even bat an eye...

Breasts were declared sexual by nature. By nature a man is attracted to breasts. Even in African cultures, the men are indeed attracted to breasts. They just have no great urgency to view them, since they are constantly exposed.\n\nThough I hate to go into great details about sex, breasts are considered sexual by phenomina. Woman's breast are effected by sex. A woman's nipples often errect durring sexual arrousal. Also, (if I'm not mistaken) estrogen, the same hormone accounted for much of the physical, sexual, emotional, and reproductive stages and changes of women, also determines the size of a woman's breast. Thus, proving that breast are linked to a woman's sexuality. \n\nAllowing women to roam topless would only degrate women and girls. It would support the notion of treating and handling a woman's body as a man's. If women's breast are to be declared "nonsexual", than the groaping of a woman's breast can not, by definition, be considered a sexual offence. Touching a woman's breast would, legally, be no more offensive than touching a woman's shoulder. Though touching a woman's shoulder can be viewed as sexually offensive, it can only be considered so if with intent, (which can be difficult to prove).\n\nImagine a society where 12-17 years old girls are allowed to expose their breasts in public. Pedaphiles would be allowed to view topless yound girls without legal endangerment. Imagine a society where men can just ask a woman or girl to remove her top without legal offense. Imaging shcools, with sexually raging young boys/men, requiring girls to be on the "no shirt" team, durring 2-hand-touch.\n\nI do believe in treating woman with respect. However, there are, without a doubt, differences between men and women. Ignoring these diffences can prove to be degrading and underminding for both sexes. It could also prove to be dangerous for women. Though you may think otherwise, you would not want society to treat a woman's body as a man's.


I support the troops, I was once a Marine, but I think it is time to formulate a plan to bring them home in the middle of an impending civil war. Vietnam was a civil war where I saw fellow marines lose their lives for nothing.

Active Army Enlisted, OIF II Veteran.  Despite what is commonly seen in the press and the news networks, the country is steadily improving.  To date, there have been multiple, successful elections, constant improved infrastructure (schools, hospitals, roadways, pipelines, etc.) and a better trained, better supplied military (to include APCs and transport aircraft).\n\nOf course, starting from nothing after the invasion, to it's expected goal, will obviously take a long time.  However, the US must accept the direction Iraq wishes to take with its newfound democracy.  This is a double edge sword that can result in not only a free and successful Iraq, but also a fundamentalist nation, not to far from similar states such as Iran or Palestine.\n\nOne thing that must be remembered that in order to prevent further instability, the US and UK must not force a stable democracy to fast in Iraq.  As it has been seen is many other nations such as Rwanda in the 1990s, when foreign governments intervene with the good intention to produce a stable nation before sed nation is ready to embrace a "mature democracy", the result is further instability and therefore, in the case of Iraq, the increased continued presence of US troops in Iraq.\n\nCase in point, the US was not considered a mature democracy, recognizable to the rest of the world as a first world, influential nation till about 1940 to 1960, around to 180 years after the nation was founded.  As stated before, Iraq needs time and the freedom to set its own government at its own pace.


Sabine Pilot Services, Inc. v. Michael Andrew Hauck

I don't know about Texas, but it is hard to find briefs online for most cases.  US Supreme Court briefs are often online.  Otherwise, in my expereince, the easiest way is to look at the case and contact the lawyers who briefed the case and ask them to send you a copy.  Most lawyers will.  Otherwise you can look at the court files in Austin or have an attorney service pull it for you.


I was brought some Pomegranate green tea from the US and cannot find it in the UK anyone help

Hi, i am part chinese, and I want to understand the Vietnam war in greater detail, especially if you are an american or north american. Could you please write down what happened, how it happened, who won, who lost, what are the consequenses and all the sites you know about the war. I would like to see the difference between Asian and American Prespective( though i am a canadian myself) Any other country beside America are also welcome.. Thanks, the most detailed will get 10 pts.

Well you see... there were vietnamese people... and we killed a lot of them.  Then they killed a lot of us.  Much like iraq, we should have just turned their country into a charred black rock in east asia.  i mean, after all... the winners of the wars are the ones who write the history books.


I lived in South Dakota my whole life, then moved to Minnesota when I was about 20.  I liked it in MN at first because there are much more opportunities for better paying jobs and it is always expanding.  But, after being in MN for 4 years, I am liking South Dakota better and missing it there.  I think the people there are nicer and much more friendly and personable.  Just about everybody in South Dakota will talk to you and be friendly, but Minnesota seems much different.  What do you think?

Why don't we just claim Mexico as part of the U. S.?  It would save alot of lives, and then the Mexicans can just stay in their own towns, since it would be part of the U. S.  They could become instant Americans, and we could industrialize and modernize their cities as we do our own.  Can't one hand just wash the other?  Come on!!!!

NO!!! What makes you think that Mexicans want to be colonized by the US??\nI am a Mexican and really, I don't want Mexico to be part of the US. The fact that some Mexicans come to the US for better oportunities does NOT mean that ALL MEXICANS want to be in the US, nor that Mexicans want to loose their own identity and country for an extra couple of bucks. \nImmigration is a very complex issue and as you may nottice most of the immigrants keep their own culture and remain loyal to their countries of origin. \nIf the US tried to just take over Mexico there would be a war, I'm not saying Mexico would win but we will not go without a fight!


answered by a medical profesional and not someone off the street

Perhaps its because they would like some knowledge before seeking medical advice. So they know the proper questions to ask in regards to their health issues. Also if it could be something cured or answered "over the counter", it could save them lots of money and or embarrassment. Asking questions never hurt, failing to ask the right ones; do!!


3 sons enter a room where their dying father lays. The dying father said " Who ever can manage to fill this whole room with the least items can have all my riches when I die" the 1st son fills the room with 2000 bricks but those not win the 2nd son fills the room with 1000ballons but those not win. But the 3rd son wins. What did he fill the room with? How much of it?

They reached and got wideouts that aren't even listed on espn's bargain bin! OMG I am gonna explode!!!!


The explosion scheduled for June 2 at the Nevada Test Site is part of an effort to design a weapon that can penetrate solid rock formations in which a country might store nuclear weapons or other weapons of mass destructionhttp://fpiarticle.blogspot.com/2006/03/plans-for-massive-blast-in-nev-draw.html

With the rise in power of countries these days, we are lucky all we need to develope are bunker busting weapons.  Many countries have developed nuclear technology since the end of the "cold" war.  I'd be more concerned with the Iranians and North Koreans obtaining nuclear weapons than with the U.S. developing a weapon that could take out nuclear weapons in their silo's.


No one wants to vomit but on occasion I have eaten too much and felt ill for the rest of the night. I have tried to make myself vomit by putting 2 fingers down my throat but this never works. What am I doing wrong?

I don't want to encourage bulemia but the way to do it is to stick your index finger down the back of your throat and to lick the palm of your hand with your tongue.  It helps the gag reflex to relax when you lick your palm and then tickle it with your finger tip.  Also a glass of really salty water helps.  Good luck and try not to do it again!


What is the most ignorant question that has been asked in here!?


Please, this is a serious historical question..

Patient, and bulldog stubbornesslike U.S. Grant, no matter what the casualties, just send his superior forces in.  In a battle of attrition, he surely would've won.  \n\nThe Greeks attacked his ships while they were bottled up coming thru the straits.  The Persians couldn't bring their full force to bare and where defeated piecemiel.  I guess his patience could've shown by not giving battle near the opening of the straits but in more open water....where his numbers wouldn've been the determining factor.


I have to get one and it is going to be my first how did i go about doing what ever it is i have to do. I am so nervous.

You know, sweetie, I've worked in the medical field for 20 years and I've lost count of the girls coming for their first pap.  Here's what I tell them -\n\nFirst, you're doing the right thing.  So many simple things that can become bad things are discovered in a pap smear and prevented.  Plus if you're doing this to get birth control - bravo!  There's no shame in that, sex is the most natural thing in the world and you're taking control of your own life.\n\nSecond, and just as importantly - the human body is nothing to be ashamed of.  The doctor doesn't think any more of looking in your vagina than looking down your throat, and believe me, he's seen thousands.  It's so routine and is conducted so professionally that you should not feel embarrassed.  And everybody's pretty much looks the same.\n\nDeep breaths, try to relax and remember - it's the first thing that distinguishes you as a woman as opposed to a girl.  We all go through it, and after that first one you'll wonder what the fuss was about.


I am a grad student(social science). To study in USA, I have to pass GRE. But afraid of Maths. I am terrified even with simple equations. Please provide detail guidance for me. Thank you.

I suggest getting one of the GRE study guides from Princeton Review, Kaplan, etc.  Those things give you strategies for working with the type of questions you will have on the GRE.  They stress how to score points on the exam, how it is structured, how to use the answer choices, etc.  It won't make you an better at math, but it can prepare you for the exam (which is presumably what you are after).  Give yourself enough time to read the texts and get practice and even time to ask someone for some help on some of the types of problems.


I asked a question two weeks ago. I am going to rephrase the question because i don't think i was clear enough the first time. Are there any MEN out there who have been harassed by other MEN at their job? To the point where they hated going to work. What is your story? What did you do about it?

Yes. \nI hesitated about what to do. If I decided to quit, I could not get any money. So, I made their life so difficult and the business so bad that they put me out of the company and I asked for a good exit package. With that I bought a small flat and set up a Foundation. I do my best to have a great working atmosphere. It goes very well.

i want to know how many divisions in gay sexualism, like i know some gay they feel like women and some of them feel like man still they want to have sex with a man , some others feel like man and they can have sex with women as well the man who feel like women. i know some crossdressers they almost women, so i totaly confuesed and i want to know all these , somebody who know all these can please answer me?

Based on what you've said I will take a guess and think you are heterosexual.  You can't use your heterosexual idea of sex and try to understand homosexual activity.  For example, gay couples do not think one plays the "guy" role and the other plays the "female" role because they are both of the same sex...therefore they both play the same role.  Sexual orientation has nothing to do with social behavior.


With the countless followers of ancient Greek polytheism, surely one of them had their prayers answered. Who did this? How does it (the process of having ones prayer answered) differ from today's American Christian God? Why?\nLet's try this without quoting scriptures, please.

"We are all the human race." etc.\nAs if that will make it true because it is in their mind that it isn't politically correct to observe racial differences.\n\nfactors involving significant racial differences:\nbiological\ncultural\ndietary\nhealth\npreferred temperature\nculture\nmusic\nreligion {YUCK}\nhistory\nskin color and associated properties\nhair\n\n\nIs it classic 'hide your head in the sand'?\nWishful thinking?

It's all a word game. One person's definition of 'race' is different from another person's. The philospher Ludwig Wittgenstein taught that all philosphical disagreements are caused by ambiguity in language. Some people think of 'race' as being the equivilent to 'species'. In that case they would argue that all humans are the same 'race'. Others define race as the outward observable physical characteristics, especially related to the color of the skin. People can say whatever they want. It doesn't make it true.


In January 2006, Exxon Mobil posted the highest quarterly and annual profits of any U.S. company in history: $10.71 billion for the fourth quarter of 2005 and $36.13 billion for the full year.  \n\nToday, the company posted quarterly profits for the January-March 2006 period of $8.4 billion which is up from $7.86 billion a year ago.  \n\nIs there price manipulation going on in the oil industry?  \n\nShould the oil industry still receive the billions of dollars of tax subsidies that Bush signed into law in August 2005?

"Reasonable" is completely subjective.  Exxon's profit margins have floated between 5-10% for the last 20 years.  The nominal amount of profit has gone up because their raw materials (crude oil) have gone up in price.  They should actually scale linearly with the price of crude oil assuming fixed net margins.\n\nTheir profit margin is actually pretty small compared to other companies.  It's just that they do massive sales.  370B in the ttm.

If American consumers are only willing to pay Wal-Mart prices for consumer goods (food, houses and services) and producers are forced to produce at that ridiculously low price using cheap labor.  How accountable are we for creating the demand for immigrant labor?

it is not who to blame. first you need to figure out what you are mad about. if you are mad that they are over populated then it is about sex. if it is the taking of the jobs. then it is jus that there are not lazy and will do anything for money. so you need to rethink your question

My thing is if The African American are from africa where are the white Americans from? if this race is  not origionally from America so why is this race deamed to be'Americans' and The Native race is called Native Americans.

We call ourselves Native becuase the Creator put us here, not anywhere else.  The whole Bering Straight thing is BS.  We are smart enough to know where we are from-its no mystery to us.\n\nIf your descendants are Native to Europe, then youre European.  Asia, then Asian.  You people came from somewhere and it wasn't here, so do some research.  if you just dont know, fine, call yourself Native American and see how that works out for you.  I bet you'll find it dosent work out too good.  Most Indians I know prefer to go by our first names anyway.


also evaluate position; wright vs arod, reyes vs jeter, wagner vs rivara, delgado vs giombi, ect. keep in mind the mets hav a better record. also, if anybody answers this question saying the yankees are better because they have won 26 world series can go hav sex with themself.

YANKEES!!? HA! you'r kidding me guys... the Mets are doing a hell of a job and I think they can pose as a serious threat.. Hopefully it doesn't mean that they'll end up in a race spending as much money as the team from the Bronx does.


im 15 dona be 16 on 420 and a male. At my school im a pretty popular kid around everybody not just one group im not a prep or anything like that. I need help with girls though when im near them i dont really know what to talk about i dont mind being by them though can anyone give advise

The best thing that you can do is to be yourself. Talk about things that you know a lot about (ie. music, movies, a sport/hobby). Also be sure to ask the girl about herself, her interests, who she hangs out with. This will show the girl you are interested in getting to know who she is inside and it will help you figure out what you have in common to talk about.\nGirls can tell when someone is being genuine and down-to-earth, and when they are not. Any girl worth being around is going to want someone genuine and will like you for who you really are not who you pretend to be.


THE PERSON SO DESIRED.The service could be with local, state or federal government. They would be paid positions. The service would be in one of five areas choosen by the person. I think this would give individuals an idea of what they would want to do in life and what courses they would want to take in college. It would, in the long run, save the tax payers money, because there would be no long-term benefits, like retirement, to pay. You could set it up with an over-lap so the out going person would train the incoming person. This would free-up the supervisors to supervise and insure continuity.  Serious and literate answers only, please.

I think it's a great idea too. Everyone should, at some point in their life, contribute something (other than taxes) to the country they live in. Making it mandatory would make it less enjoyable, however. People should do it because it's the right thing to do, not because it's required.


My friend took something from cvs. About 8 hours later the manager called to thank him for his service. Its been about 2 days. Can he still get arrested. I thought he has to be caught at the scene of the crime. I thought if you make it out of the store,you are clear. whats the answer. Not a stupid one please.

yes, if the CVS has a camera, they probably cought him in the act. If he returns to the store, or the store decides to press charges he could be arrested.

Sell things on ebay.\nSign up to be a Mystery Shopper.\nTake surveys online and get paid for them.


Ok, hypothetical question.  This situation has not happend to me or anyone I know.  I was just thinking about if it did happen it would be a good way to catch criminals.\n\nOk, lets say a guy makes say $90,000 from an illgal enterprise in a year, and only reports say $10,000 that he claims he made from say, selling items on ebay to the IRS, but he is living in an expensive apartment that costs $2000 a month.  So he reported some, but not enough to cover his lifestyle.  Do landlords have to give some kind of thing that says who is renting apartments and how much they cost?  And, if so is it likely (has it happend before) for the government to find out that he doesn't make enough money to cover her lifestyle, and they would bust her?  Do you know of any ways to easily claim a legal source for you money that cant be checked, or disproven?

I believe the government is allowed to access information from the landlord, and the person's bank account in this instance. There are no legal ways to evade tax. If you invest the money, you may be able to minimise your tax, but as I am from Australia and our tax laws are different to yours, I can't say for certain. \n\nThe American tax laws take up 1.2 million pages, so I'm sure they have covered everything.


I always remember summers at my grandparents when we were young. Laying in the grass looking up at the sky. Just being carefree.

Hanging out with my best friend and baby sitting my kid sister!  Playing baseball with the neighbor kids.  An ice cream truck that came by once a week.  Swimming lessons.  A week at Nannie and Pa's house.  Vacation Bible School.  Summer Bible Camp.  Freedom.  No locked doors.  No abductions.  Bee stings.  Bike wrecks.  No Child protective services.  No one wanting to stalk, violate, or otherwise harm me, my family or my home - I grew up in the 60's!  Times have changed!

Implement a simple calculator.  \nThe calculator will execute basic arithmetic operations (add, subtract, multiply, divide and  raise to the power) with decimal numbers and prints the current result when asked by the user.  \nThe calculator keeps track at all time of the minimum and maximum calculated results.  \nThe operator is given first and the operands after it on another line separated by whitespace.  \nThe user is assumed to know how to use the program and therefore the program does not need to react to any unspecified errors.  \n\nWrite a C++ program that :\n-prints a prompt “>” on the screen \n-waits for user input on the same line where the prompt is printed.  \nThe input must be one of the following commands:\n-Once the operation command is typed :\noif it is a +, - , / ,*  or P  the program waits for user input in the form of two numbers separated by a whitespace.\noif its is an =, H, M or Q the program prints an appropriate message.\n-Several calculations can be done

This sounds like school work, its a fairly simple program. you will probably want to use the cout and cin function which needs you to include iostream.h \n\nsimply use cout to print to screen, ask for input etc. then take the input using cin and store it to a int variable.\n\na good way to do it would be to ask the user what they wish to do, eg subtract, divide and take that operator first, a symbol or a number to show choice. then the next line asks for the numbers to be input.\n\neg:\n\n---------\n\nHello. what do you wish to do:\n1 - subtract\n2 - divide\n3 - etc etc\n\n>\n\n-------------\n\nthen use an if function or maybe a switch to check what their input was and do the artithmatic.\n\nso a very basic prgram may look like this:\nit may have errors i havant checked it.\n\n-----------------\n\n#include <iostream>\n\nint main() \n{\nint number;\n\n    cout << "Hello, input a number" << endl;\n    cin >>number;\n    return 0;\n}\n\n------\n\nEDIT; i re read the req, you might find inputting the selection to a char better, then check the char to see what symbol is stored in it, eg + / -. and maybe use a char array for the number input. simple take the char array, check for the space. split the numbers into 2 and caste then to an int. sounds complicated but it isnt to hard.\n\nsorry about spelling mistakes.

HEAT AND PRESSURE ON EXISTING ROCKS or EVAPORATION OF WATER, LEAVING SOLIDS BEHIND or COOLING AND HARDENING OF MOLTEN ROCK or LAYERS OF MUD ON THE BOTTOM OF A LAKE?

Igneous rocks are formed when molten rock (magma) cools and solidifies, with or without crystallization, either below the surface as intrusive (plutonic) rocks or on the surface as extrusive (volcanic) rocks. This magma can be derived from either the Earth's mantle or pre-existing rocks made molten by extreme temperature and pressure changes. Over 700 types of igneous rocks have been described, most of them formed beneath the surface of the Earth's crust. The word "igneous" is derived from the Latin ignis, meaning "fire".

One of the best cups I ever had was in Tokyo. Similar to the Melitta filter method but I've tried to duplicate it at home but it wasn't the same. How do you do coffee?

1. Keep beans in freezer\n2. Grind fresh right before you brew\n3. Use a cup-top filter and brew directly into the cup (or a french press).  \n4. Bring water to a full boil, dampen grounds in filter.  Wait a minute or two for oils to release.  \n5. Bring water back to full boil, pour into filter. \n\nEnjoy!

Town and gown is a term used to describe the two communities of a university town; "town" being the non-academic population and "gown" the university community, especially in traditional seats of learning such as Oxford and Cambridge. The metaphor is historical in its connotation but continues to be used in the literature on urban higher education and in common parlance.\n\nOrigin\nDuring the Middle Ages, students admitted to the European universities often held minor clerical status, particularly on the continent, and donned garb similar to that worn by the clergy. These vestments evolved into the academic long black gown, worn along with hood and cap. The gown proved comfortable for studying in unheated and drafty buildings and thus became a tradition in the universities. The gown also served as a social symbol, as it was impractical for physical work. (Compare with the gowns worn by Chinese officials.) The hood often was adorned with the colors of the school and designated the young scholar's university affiliation. Thus by their distinctive clothing, the students were set apart and distinguished from the citizens of the town; hence the phrase "town and gown."


I'm thinking of starting one and I want to know where you would buy one.

People typically want instant gratification ...... get their new computer as soon as they decide they are going to buy one.  Also while not impossible it is hard to beat the prices of the "big box" stores.  The way i see it is the biggest advantage of a small shop is that there is a lot more customer service, that makes owner personality a huge factor.\nRather than incurring all the expenses of opening a shop why not try making them out of your garage/house/apartment whatever and then provide installation/repairs at peoples homes.  People love the convenience and the good customer service.  Hard part is getting your name out but expenses are soooooooo much lower and it can always be done part-time as a side business

You are building the wrong muscles.  Also, leverage is the key (physics).  If you want to be good at arm wrestling, you want to arm wrestle (or do that motion) on a shedule that you lift weights.  Also, strengthen your wrists with isometrics or something.


why does love always involved sex? it always measure someones attitude when sex is mentioned. it ruins someones dignity and pride when SEX is told bad or good by someone else.

Love doesn't always involve sex.  Some people don't need sex to be in a healthy relationship.  It just adds a lot of fun and spice into your relationship.  You don't NEED it, but it's still nice.

I wondering about people asking about deaf people.. If you feel interesting in Deaf Culture but all you have to do just ask me because I know alot about Deaf Culture. I will be happy to help you.. The truth is I am deaf myself. I love to help or teach people to understand the about Deaf Culture. I believe it is very interesting educational to understand why deaf people used Sign language. (Ask me if you are interesting!)

Hey by the way the correct spelling is "Interested."\n\nYou already know I am deaf, so no introductions here. But anyways, I'd like to share something that is kind of interesting from a deaf perspective.\n\nI grew up speaking and lip-reading all my life going to hearing schools. Yes, I did have oral education, but only up to 6th grade. It became a part-time thing all through elementary school, then no more of that after that.\n\nI had never learnt sign language because I was always in hearing schools, and I lived too far from my old deaf classmates to be able to socialize with them on a regular basis. So I pretty much was not part of the deaf culture for most of my life growing up.\n\nI attended a community college that had a small deaf program (Ohlone College). I also played on the tennis team. There was another deaf girl on the tennis team too. She only communicated via ASL with no lipreading. I only communicated via speaking. Despite the fact that we were both deaf, we could not communicate at all!\n\nIt was so strange. I truly felt what hearing people felt sometimes when they try to communicate with a deaf person. I was taking ASL 1 at the same time, so each day I was not only learning more signs in class, I was also learning them from her. Those first six months were probably the fastest I had ever learnt a language. I didn't even have to go to class nor did I have to study it because I already knew it all! Got an easy A plus in ASL 1!\n\nThis experience taught me what it really felt like to be in hearing people's shoes with the hearing perspective on deafness. So I already know what it feels like to be on both sides of the fence. I also learnt that it is possible to really learn a new language very quickly if you really have a strong desire to communicate with someone. It just takes regular practice and dedication on a regular basis, and then before you know it, you already become fluent in it.

Our relationship was very new when I left last july. Thats why I think maybe I expected too much out of her and things would turn out better after I got home and we could have a "normal" relationship. She says she doesnt know what she wants yet but continues to say how important to her it is we stay friends at least for now and how she really messed things up. Is she sincere or is she just doing this to make herself feel better? I tried to show her I didnt forget about her by sending flowers and letters as much as I could but obviously that didnt work. How can a nice guy like me find someone who I can really trust?

First of all Thank you for serving our country! If you want to save this relationship you will have to work on the trust issue. But I would be concerned about her cheating again. Follow your heart.


the first one was all light and happy, the new one is moody and depressed? what was it? politics? bush? the general state of the world?

simple answer: the music industry.\n\nmusicians cope with what fans want to hear. it may not always be their choice but their producer's. people make a living in the music industry by making money. not all bands and artists will survive if they continue to play what they want. they have to adjust to what is popular. the gorillaz first album was released when happier music what more dominant, and now, "emo" rules the industry. theyve changed.\n\nthere are many other bands that have done the same thing. green day is the most known of these bands though.


I remember going to middle school (usually 7th to 9th grade, 9th grade being debatable as in our district it soon became part of high school) and coming out with nothing really. To be honest I didn't learn anything that I haven't already from 6th grade. \n\nBesides, we went over all the teachings from 7th-9th grade in 10th grade. I saw it as a waste of 2 (3 if 9th actually had stayed) years that I could have better used and planned in my life. What are your thoughts about middle schools?

Well it's kinda scary going from elemntry to high school all a sudden isn't it?\n\nyou get more education each year by building from what you learned before....... and jumping from 6th grade to 10th grade i think in your case... is quite a scare.

This was from a Simulation of Disease Transmission lab. The spread of the disease in our simulation was very rapid. Within a few minutes many people were infected. Why is the spread of infections slower in real life? Thank you for your answers.

A quotation by Harvey J Gold, Author of Mathematical Modelling of Biological Systems,  may go towards assisting your analysis of the situation:\n\n" The result of a mathematical development should be continuously checked against one's own intuition about what constitutes reasonable biological behaviour. Whenever such a check reveals disagreement, the following possibilities must be considered:\n\na : A mistake has been made in the formal mathematical development\n\nb: The starting assumptions are incorrect and/or constitute a too drastic oversimplification\n\nc: One's own intuition about the biological field is inadequately developed.\n\nd: A penetrating new principle has been discovered. "\n\nDo let me know whether you found meaning in the above, and if you did analyse your model based on the checks recommended by him, what among a,b,c,d was the reason of the discrepancy. Of course this is assuming that you have already established the discrepancy beyond doubt.


Their headline read that the immigration bill fell to politics.  Their story only reported what the idiot that is Edward Kennedy stated.  The republican response was a smaller story buried deeper within their website.  I really don't understand it.  And this has become the practice rather than the exception. Wouldn't it be better if we were given both sides and allowed to discern the truth for ourselves?  Don't most of us find the truth somewhere in the middle?  I know that I certainly don't think that a man who left a woman to die in the bottom of a river while he covered his behind the beacon of integrity the Yahoo obviously does.

Two thoughts.\n\nFirst, I think the headline "Immigration Bill Falls Victim to Politics" IS factual reporting.  The group that had coalesced behind this bill could not hammer out their differences in the details, so members from both parties withdrew their support - for now, at least.  What is unfortunate is the finger-pointing on both sides in a juvenile attempt to win political points; this childish behavior only makes future compromise more difficult.\n\nSecond, why on earth do we expect (or even want) unbiased reporting?  To expect another human being to relay facts, quotes, statements, etc. in a completely dispassionate way is unrealistic.  I can't leave my biases out of telling even the simplest stories, because I see things from only my limited point of view.  I wouldn't expect a reporter - who is only human, after all - to do otherwise.\n\nI, for one, am glad that we have a variety of media outlets from which we can get our information.  Hearing information from different sources causes me to CHALLENGE my own limited perspective and forces me to think more deeply than I would have allowed myself had I listened only to one news source that serves only to reinforce my biases.  So what if Yahoo! takes a headline from a Ted Kennedy quote?  Sure, some people (as you suggested) see him as an selfish idiot who cares nothing for others, but others view him differently.  As you very correctly indicated, the truth - about Kennedy, about everything - is somewhere in the middle.


Say you love her, and she is very stimulated by her breasts.  Do you really care if they aren't TV perfect?

It goes like "Doing things is what I like to do....YES!, Doing things is what I like to do..." etc., etc. What is the song name? Its the commercial with all the people doing random things.

Yes!\nDoing things is what I like to do... Yes!"\n\nI think that it is an original song written especially for Dunkin' Donuts.

Simply watch your carbohydrate intake.Look at the labels(yes I know that's boring)But,just once look at the container say on a soda pop can,what do you see? Most likely on that one can you will find from40-50 carbs.just on one can of soda pop.Your body was not made to process all the carbs it's most likely getting in one day. Try drinking only water as your beverage for a week or two and see what happens. How many carbs will you not get just by checking this one item.Then after a few weeks,start checking the containers of food you buy.Now look on the side of the can or box,how many carbs in in this item per serving? Cut back your carbs and you will most likely lose weight.

burning from the inside out ...out of the blue? what causes that? how does it happen?

Spontaneous combustion, or roughly, any spontaneous reaction would occur if the reactants are;\n1) thermodynamically unstable\n2) kinetically unstable\n\n1) Thermodynamic stability:\nAll combustion reactions are exothermic. If you draw the energy profile for a combustion reaction, the reactants are at a higher energy state and the products are at a lower energy state, since heat energy is released. Thermodynamic stability has to do with the relative energy of the reactants or products. As stated above, the reactants are at a higher energy state and they tend to release energy when reacting, so the reactants are said to be thermodynamically unstable. This unstability would result in a spontaneous reaction.\n\n2) Kinetic stability:\nThis takes into account the activation energy of the reaction. According to the 'Collision Theory', reacting molecules must have sufficient kinetic energy while colliding in order to overcome the activation energy for the proceeding reaction. Considering the thermodynamically unstable reactants above, if the reacting molecules can collide with each other with enough internal energy that is greater than or equal to the activation energy, they would be able to reach the transition state and form products spontaneously, and hence be termed kinetically unstable. \n\nIt happens, however, that in some combustion reactions, the reactants are thermodynamically unstable and you expect them to react just like that, but they don't because they're kinetically stable (internal energy not enough to overcome activation energy), and so they need to be given more internal energy in the form of a spark, ignition, presence of light etc., in order for the reaction to proceed.


I have a pack of X amount of smokes and you have a pack of Y amount of smokes. If I give you two of mine you'll have htree times more than I do. On the other hand, if you give me two of yours, I'll have exactly as many as you. How many cigarettes did we each start with?

Yours is X. Mine is Y.\n\n3(X - 2) = Y + 2\nX + 2 = Y - 2\n\nSubtract the second equation from the first:\n\n2X - 8 = 4\n2X = 12\nX = 6\n\nY = 10\n\nPerhaps fizban would like the riddle better if you substituted cute little bunnies for cigarettes.


i've heard of this and think it pertains to easter, but i can't remember??  am i on the right track??\n\nthanks

The feast of Maundy (or Holy) Thursday solemnly commemorates the institution of the Eucharist and is the oldest of the observances peculiar to Holy Week. In Rome various accessory ceremonies were early added to this commemoration, namely the consecration of the holy oils and the reconciliation of penitents, ceremonies obviously practical in character and readily explained by the proximity of the Christian Easter and the necessity of preparing for it. Holy Thursday could not but be a day of liturgical reunion since, in the cycle of movable feasts, it brings around the anniversary of the institution of the Liturgy. On that day, whilst the preparation of candidates was being completed, the Church celebrated the Missa chrismalis of which we have already described the rite (see HOLY OILS) and, moreover, proceeded to the reconciliation of penitents. In Rome everything was carried on in daylight, whereas in Africa on Holy Thursday the Eucharist was celebrated after the evening meal, in view of more exact conformity with the circumstances of the Last Supper. Canon 24 of the Council of Carthage dispenses the faithful from fast before communion on Holy Thursday, because, on that day, it was customary take a bath, and the bath and fast were considered incompatible. St. Augustine, too, speaks of this custom (Ep. cxviii ad Januarium, n. 7); he even says that as certain persons did not fast on that day, the oblation was made twice, morning and evening, and in this way those who did not observe the fast could partake of the Eucharist after the morning meal, whilst those who fasted awaited the evening repast.


I work for people who obviously make ALOT more money than I. I guess they feel their witty banter is above all the levels of Bernie Mac. I get so sick of it and I just need a quick witted response that will subtly let them know that they are not funny, they should not try to be funny and that I just want to get my work done, all without embarassing them (too much.) any suggestions?

When they make a stupid joke look at them and say: "Well, I guess they can't all be winners." They probably won't even know what you mean.


I want to become a realtor, but I wnat to knwo what the hours are and if the pay is good? I will be raising my baby ...so will I have time at nights and weekends to do this job?

I looked into becoming a realtor a while ago, I'm a SAHM so it sounded good.  Hours wise, its pretty flexible in that you decide how many you want to work, how many clients to take on.   Depending on your financial need, you might just need to sell one house a month.  But what I found out (which is why I couldn't do it) is that it's a lot of start up costs.  You have to pay for the training (usually given through a real estate company), pay for your testing, pay for your licensing and to be on Realtor Boards.  Plus there are annual dues for being on the Realtor boards (which is required by most real estate places).  So here, start up was going to cost about $1700.  But if you can swing that, its really flexible in that you decide how much you want to take on.  But, keep in mind that most open houses are on the weekends, and that most people like to go see homes on the weekends or after THEY get off work.  So it might not be a real scheduled job for you, just flexible in how much you want to take on.  Money wise, its like 7% that you get.  So whatever the sold house goes for, you get 7% of it (in Michigan anyway).  So the money can be very good.

I am not going to read such an absurd theory. But come on, has he done any research to see if such a huge body of water in that area of the world can freeze over?? Has he even read the story?? Most bible historians believe that it was the Sea of Galilee where this happened which is a HUGE body of water! The story also states that a huge storm occured during this , so wouldnt the hugh waves during the storm,pretty much break up all the frozen water?? Just another antheist trying to gain some ground for Satan!


The English is my second language,so I can't use it in life usually.

The best way to improve your language skills is total immersion.  Find people who speak English and speak with them only in English.  You may find this difficult at first, but this will be the best method for learning.  It seems your writing skills are OK, so most likely you just need to speak the language.  Also, I've known people who've learned English purely through movies.


The sun is big at rising but cold. But at noon it is small and hot.If the distance is shorter in the morning why it is not hot? If the distance is more at noon why it is more hot than morning?

As the light from the sun enters the atmosphere, the atmosphere bends it a certain amount. Because the sun is closer to the horizon at sunrise and sunset, there is more atmosphere to bend the incoming light rays. Hence, the sun appears larger at sunrise and sunset because of atmospheric lensing.

I have noticed that birds, within a few pecks into the ground, can bring up a worm. I cannot believe this is because there are that many worms in the ground such that it is a chance occurrence. So how do they know where the worms are?

Birds feed on many foods but most birds like to feed on worms. Interestingly, different birds are equipped with different features to locate worms. An ornithologist or bird specialist at Cornell University in Ithaca, New York said some birds seek out worms by touch, some by sight and some by smell. For example, shore birds like sandpipers have very sensitive tips on their bills. They can often feel worms that they may not see. Kiwis actually have nostrils at the tips of their bills and a very good sense of smell allowing them to find earthworms and other foods. But what about the backyard favorite, the robin? It appears, as the song says, to be "bobbin' along". When the robin is searching through the grass to find dinner, all studies suggest they are doing it entirely visually, not by hearing or smell. When the robins run along the grass cocking their heads, it appears that they are listening but all of the data suggest they are just looking. What are they looking for since many of the worms are below the surface of the lawn? They look for the castings or pellets of mud on the soil surface indicating the entrance to a worm hole. In the winter it may be more difficult for the birds to find sufficient food so bird seed or bread crumbs are a welcome treat. And don't forget that the birds need water, too--in summer and in winter.


It has to do with Microsoft Office, I lost my disk and my Offices expired, It's telling me to enter a product key. Crazy Dutch bastards are telling me to buy one and I don't want to.

I had a copy of Windows XP that had a key number that wouldn't be accepted, so I had to phone Microsoft to get a new number.\n\nI don't know if this is possible with Microsoft Office, but if it is, it shouldn't cost you anything. The call should be toll free too.\n\nI'm not sure if this will work, but look in tools/manage add ons to see if there is an active x control that is creating the product key message.\n\nIf you have a copy of Windows XP that you want to update from Microsoft's site, sometimes you get a message saying the product key isn't valid, so you can't download security updates. This is due to an activex control that can be disabled. It is perfectly legal btw to disable this activex control, whether or not your product key is valid.

How can I store DNA samples for longer periods?


I tried it and got an answer totally different from my friend. So then, today we asked our math teacher who's correct and she said his was. Can you give steps on how to get right answer? My friend told me I had to square root it first. I didn't know what he was talking about. I couldn't ask him since he left. I got 1/9(x+18)(x+18). He got something different. Can you tell me what I did wrong?

It's a perfect square trinomial.  Take the square root of the first term and the square root of the last.  If you multiply them and then double it, and it equals the middle term, then it's a perfect square trinomial.\n\nIn this case, it factors into (x/3 + 6)^2.  Using FOIL, you'll see that it expands into your original expression.


just because some psyko and a group alqida decides to attack america london and other inocent people that doesnot mean every muslim is like that for example if a muslim is driving like he is carzy they are going to say relegion and he was up to some thing because he is muslim but if they were christian they would not care what his relegion was

Study our recent U.S. history (20 years) and you will discover that more than 95% of our terrorist attacks and wars are against Muslims, and that they are the instigators of such activities.\n\nOR -\n\nStudy religion.  What are the Muslim faith doctrines ... OOPS!  "Death to all infidels!!!" (you are an infidel if you are not a muslim).\n\nNot all religions preach violence; you mentioned Christianity in your question, as I understand it christians preach peace, hope and love.\n\nOR -\n\nStudy Ancient History.  As far back as you would care to travel in time you will find the muslims at the heart of conflict from their very inception as a family, then tribe, then nation, then world religion.\n\nOR -\n\nStudy sociology.  Muslims view of life does understand that what you 'believe is true, is true' regardless of how other individuals or nations regard truth.  The driving force in Muslims lives is their religion because they clearly see that it is their belives that give meaning to life (and direction for their life choices).\n\nMeet a devote muslim and you will meet a person that has NO tolerance for anyone who does not believe exactly as they do. \n\nThis is true of very few of the 5000+ religions in the world.\n\nIn my opinion, muslims are just like you and me (hopefully), individulas that in the U.S. have the right to their thoughts and beliefs as long as they are not hurting others.  BUT therein lies the problem.\n\nThe scottish have a saying "Fool me once, shame on you.  Fool me twice, shame on me."\n\nWhy are people racist . . .


My husbands buddy is causing problems in our marriage. I have spoken my peace,yet my hubby feels that I am just jealous and refuses to give up his weekends hanging out with his buddy. I work every weekend so when I get home I want to be with my hubby...It was not always like this. This has been going on for about a year. I am at my wits end! His buddy is a smart*** that thinks he knows everything about everything!!! I have begged and pleaded to no avail. Am I wrong to expect my hubby to respect my wishes that his buddy only come down every so often? My marriage is in jeapordy...

No, your not wrong.  A guy deserves to have his friends, and your not going to like a lot of them, but he needs to also respect you and how you feel.  It seems to me that since you work on weekends there is obviously time for him and his friend to hang out, and that it shouldn't be a big deal to send the friend home once you get off work so that the two of you can spend time together.  A marriage is about compromise and committing to what is important.  In this case what is important should be you and the compromise should be a little less time spend hanging out with his friend.  Doesn't seem like a lot to ask keep the marriage going.


I'd like to introduce stoicism, in which virtue, logic, and reason sort of "take over" human thought. Emotions and love are wiped out. It sounds like a freak show from THX-1138 or George Orwell's "1984", but these pieces of literature were written by people who only wanted to see the darker aspects of a socialistic government and etc. Is it possible to be happy (in a way; you know what I mean) in a non-artistic, anti-emotional society?\n\nThink about it. It would be much more efficient, but what is more important: love or efficiency? If people thought more with the left side of their brains, things would get done faster, but as it is, emotions cloud our thoughts all the time.\nI'm not in favor of this, but I'm of the opinion that there are some people who actually think that way, and I'd like to hear their argument, if they happen to see my question. Holla

I believe it would be unhealthy to block out emotions like that; it would interfere with brain chemistry.  I beleive what you are reffering to is an acceptance of emotions and, without acting on them, letting them go.  It is quite difficult to understand that concept and even more difficult to act on it, however.

I've just seen a post by Amberlou baby n a similar post by a guy after a woman. It just made me think - why?\n\nDon't get me wrong, we all have urges and what not, but I don't think I've ever sat round thinking "oh I need a woman in my life".\n\nI get up, go to work, go for a pint with my mates, jam with my band (when I'm in one) n if I meet someone I like n things go well we get it on. If things progress fine, if not never mind. But why do people long for someone else in their lives?

Some people are not satisfied with casual sexual encounters and relationships.\n\nI'm a single parent with three kids, and want and need emotional support and intellectual stimulation from a mature adult female, not what I can get from my mates over a pint at the local.\n\nDifferent strokes for different folks.

I want to put on HR rated tires and a tire guy says Saab wants a V rated tire.

SAAB engineered your vehicle with V-rated tires. Sure, V-Rated tires have the maximum speed of 149mph of which NO ONE will ever go. However, the more important part is the performance and handling of the car. Your V-rated tires are more responsive and have better traction than most H-rated tires. Any downgrade in performance/speed rating will change your ride to some degree. The question I have is why are you wanting to change from V-rated tires?


Also do I need to buy any other type of equipment?

BZ is a really good board,Manta will prob last the longest, toobs are good too. even if you are still starting off, try get something with a bat-tail, which makes it easier to do spinners(360s) that is the most basic move in bodyboarding. you will also need fins to help you paddle onto the waves, i recommend either "vipers","redley's" or "toobs blunt cuts", you will also need wax, a leash or cord, and if you want to avoid a rash on your abbs, a rash guard or vest.

Because of diabetes, my doctor wants me to stay away from anti-inflamatory medicine\nMy fingers hurt more between the joints than at the joints.

Turmeric is a natural anti-inflammatory..I have just found out that yucca is great for arthritis--breaks up calcium deposits and is anti-inflammatory..A natural healer I just saw prescribed large doses (for me 9 caps and 6 of nature's sunshine calcium with vit D --I am overweight so he may have used more??) for rheumatoid arthritis.\n\n.Please use caution with prescription anti-inflammatories..My mother got permanent kidney damage from taking Motrin for arthritis and is now dying and on dialysis.  \n\nAlso try raw apple cider vinegar in sea salt water or with honey (you may not be able to use honey being diabetic)and water --a few spoons and drink few times a day..\n\nI have heard a vegan diet will reverse arthritis.  Also see Dr. Richard Schulze's incurable (save your life) program..it has cured diabetes according to testimonials.  I definitely believe in it.

As I stated earlier, I am a hairstylist and personal shopper from Oakland, CA.  I have a five year old daughter and am ready for a challenging, yet, rewarding career that I have found here in the bay area.  I would like to live somewhere similiar to the Bay Area, as far as the weather.  The cost of living and real estate is too high and very discouraging. Any suggestions?

Anywhere is an improvement over Oakland.  If you like California, go to the central valley.  Tracy is booming, so is Modesto.

Why are they taking up positions you would assume the military would handle itself and what general information can you give me about them?\n\nBy general information I mean in terms of pay, responsibilities, how their hired, etc.

The military is supposed to be self supporting.Set up so that all jobs that need to be done were done by military trained personnel.Although there are still people trained in all MOS's here in IRAQ civilians run the show when it comes to non combat duties freeing the soldiers for patrols,cordon and search and other dangerous jobs.I personally am glad the civilians are here doing what they are doing.No way would i want to be cleaning latrines,picking up trash and other menial labor jobs.\n  It is true that some of the jobs that civilians do should be done by soldiers such as driving trucks on convoys.A soldier  rank of specialist (pay grade E-4) makes around 35 grand yearly depending on marital status and dependants compared to 100 grand for a civilian doing the same job.A civilian doing HVAC will make anywhere from 80grand to 150 grand a year depending on experience while a sgt.pay grad e-5 doing the same job as his or her MOS makes 40 grand.I do not have civilians telling me how to do my job (base security),but they do tell us where we live what we can have in our living quarters and so on.It is my personal belief that NO civilians should be here and swallow my pride when it comes to cleaning latrines and such.During a war civilians need and should be at home where they belong.\n    There are two types of civilians working for the military here in IRAQ KBR and TCN's.TCN's(third country nationals)are laborers they work long hours for little money (by our standards).KBR kellog, brown and root are the specialty workers taking military jobs from the soldiers.These people are supposed to be good at what they do and by what i've seen they are not(that's not to say all are not good at what they do).The minimum a KBR worker makes is 80 grand tax free a year.Example = The area we live in has four generators to provide electricity they are supposed to run in sync so that when one gets overloaded or runs too long another starts up and takes over.The KBR rep. is supposed to know how to make them run in sync,but so far he has not been able to make this happen.When we first got here in july of '05 our power was going out on a daily basis.In 140 degree heat it got very hot very quick.this man makes 8 grand a month and is unable to figure out the problem.The solution? Get a bigger generator so he doesn't have to figure it out.If it was military personell doing this job it would not have cost american tax payers one millon dollars for a new generator the soldiers would be on it night and day until the problem was solved.The kbr person would stop working when it got dark and not worried about it until the next morining.Please understand I am not complaining about our living conditions here.I am an army soldier and can and will adapt to the situation,but if the convenience is available make it work as it should or get rid of the problem = KBR.


They Have Won The Worldcup In '02, Now The days approaches for worldcup '06, how are they going to match up against the other teams who are just waiting to get a piece of them.

Even the bench players for the Brazilian team could win the World Cup!!!


You hear all of this propaganda that we don't really get the whole truth about circumstances and issues within our government and what is happening in the world like with Iraq, Oil, etc. and I just wanted to know if we aren't getting the truth how do we go about finding out? Are ratings more important then the truth and are we being misguided or what?

I feel that the US media is not only dishonest, but is the main reason for the level of ignorance displayed by Americans with regards to other nations. \n\nOne guy I spoke to while there didn't realise that other countries had other currencies \n\n"Doesn't everyone use dollars maaaaaan?"

Liberals say they are more compassionate towards the poor and weak.  Oh really?  Look at New Orleans. You have a democratic legistlature, governor, and mayor over there.

Obviously, your wrong.

My friend invited me on a camping trip, and this guy who i got my heart broken by will be there, because he is my friends cousin. I dont know if i should go or not, because im still not completely over him, and im scared all my feelings will come rushing back! but i shouldnt let a guy ruin me going out and haveing a good time. Im doing a lot better about knowing that me and him will never be anything again.. im just scared.

You should go anyway,no matter how scared you are,it's not like it's just going to be you and him,your friends will be there too,you never know,you might not even really notice him,but you will never know if you don't go,take a risk


The name of the twelve apostles are this, The first Simon, who is called Peter and Andrew his brother, James the son of Zebedee and John his brother.( if you can give the others apostles I thank you. )

Hi there,\n\nThe apostles are listed in Matthew 10:2 "These are the names of the twelve apostles: first, Simon (who is called Peter) and his brother Andrew; James son of Zebedee, and his brother John; Philip and Bartholomew; Thomas and Matthew the tax collector; James son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus; Simon the Zealot and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed him."\n\nJudas Iscariot is replaced by Matthias in Acts 1:23-26.\n\nMark is understood to be the sidekick or secretary of Peter. This is why his Gospel is included, as it contains information of an eyewitness (Peter), even though the author themselves may not have been one of the twelve. This however, does not mean they were not necessarily there.\n\nLuke makes it known that his account is compiled from an investigation of the events. (Luke 1:1-4)\n\nLuke is also the author of the book of Acts (or The Acts of the Apostles). Although written mainly in the third person, Luke makes it known that we was present at the events starting from Luke 16:10 by using the word "we" instead of "they".\n\nAs a bit of trivia, Luke appears to have written Luke and Acts as one volume, to the same audience, a person referred to as Theophilus (Luke 1:1, Acts 1:1).


Do you do that at all to strangers? Do you bring them home the first night you met? if not, how many meetings before you do?

Please provide the Steps; either in numbers, or verbage but remember to describe the begining, and the final step.

Foreclosure is started by the bank or by the state. It start when you either stop making payments to the bank or your taxes.  First they will contact you to try reach an agreement of whatever quantity you are late.  If you cannot reach that agreement or if you fail to that agreement then it will be referred to a law office which in turn will contact you also.  Then they'll go to the court. Only after the court reaches a decision that the property can be claimed by the bank.  Once that happens you are evicted from the property. Then the property is put into the foreclosed listing of the bank and resold. Years ago banks priced properties for the amount owed but nowadays they use market value for pricing purposes.

she's in one of my classes, we've never really talked at all, i dont really know much about her, but i really want to get to. she's quiet. i just need to know how to start talking to her.\n(im a sophmore she's a fresh'n)

Just start with "Hi" or you could try and include her in a discussion as she walks past "Hey what do you think of zyx, by  the way I'm 'name' and you are ...?", or pick one thing about her that you like "hey sally, that's a nice necklace, is there a story behind it?"\n\nHave a look at the link below for more ways of approaching women, and the lessons learned can be applied to other areas of your life.


Can someone help me compare and contrast Q and Ksp if both are calculated using the same equations of ion concentrations.  I figured someone would know what I was talking about because the last question I asked was answered really well.  I kind of have an idea about this but I am not sure.  I have a test on Wednesday and it is an essay on this and my teacher is extremely picky and it is not in our notes.

Q which is the reaction quotient is the ratio of concenctration of reactants to concention of products each concentrations raised to their respective stiochiometry (the number infront of the products or reactants when u balance the equation) at any given time other than equilibrium. Unlike Ksp which is solubility product is the same except it's at equilibrium.\nHowever, Q can help to to find out whether or not there is a precipitate will be formed so if Qsp is < Ksp no precipitate but if Qsp > Ksp a precipitate is formed  and will continue until the concentration of ions remaining in solution satisfy Ksp\nif u don't understand maybe u can send a e-mail and i can explain what u don't understand
