something you dont beleive in.At least all other religions beleive in something is it true what the scriptures say a fool saith in his heart there is no GOD

The ones who fight to disprove God are anti-thiests.  In my liftime, I have only met a handful of actual athiests, but an enormous amount of anti-thiests who call themselves athiests.\n\nThe operating word in the definition is belief.  If you truly believe something, you act on it accordingly.  If you truly believe the roof you are sitting under is about to fall down, then you'll move.  Genuine athiests truly don't believe that there is a God, and won't waste much time talking for or againt Him.\n\nOn the other hand, anti-thiests don't want anybody to believe in any kind of higher being, and work fervently to achieve that goal.  In my experience, most anti-thiests once believed in God, but something happened in their lives which they blame God for, and thus the fervor.\n\nto zilker: Technically, anyone who does not have a belief in God is an AGNOSTIC. An atheist believes that there is no God.\nEveryone is actually AGNOSTIC by default until they develope or reject a belief in a God. \n\nto My Big Bear Ron: Maybe there are no athiests 'knocking on doors', but I guarantee there are no Christians in court rooms trying to suppress the athiests' (or more accurately, anti-thiests') right to believe what he wants to believe.

Running at the drag strip? SIMPLE. Put it in "D"  Get staged,\nstep on the brake and floor the go pedal. When you get a green light release the brake and hold on. Don't forget to let up on the go pedal after you go to the end  (timing lights) Your car will shift when needed automatically


Effects of authoritative paernts on adolescents' school achievement

Authoritative or not doesn't seem to be the key factor.  It's regular involvement with your children that correlates.  Regular family meals are a better predicter of scholastic success than any other factor.


and ive tried to reinstall and it wont. ive tried system restore and it still no sp2. also i have to keep reinstalling java every few days cuz that stops workin too

Sounds like a pretty serious problem. Do you have any Anti-Virus software installed? If so, is it all up to date and have you run a scan? My first few things I would do is see if you are infected by a virus or some malicious files...


is xylitol a sugar substitute and if not, is it better or worse?

Yes it is an alcohol. Yes it's safe for kids. However, it does show up on breathalizers. :)


my parents always fight and have long stupid arguments about money. then the arguments lead to other problems that were in the past. how can i stop them?

As the saying goes "Money is the root of all evil."\nYou have no control over your parents behaviour.  I hope you don't feel their fights are your fault in any way.\nI'm sorry to hear that they fight in front of you, causing you pain, that is selfish and irresponsible on their part.\nYou could try letting them know how much these arguments upset you by saying something like, "Please, if you feel  you have to fight could you spare me and do it some place else, or when I'm not around?"  Tell them it hurts you to see them fight. It MIGHT do some good if you bring to their attention how it makes you feel. However, I wouldn't get my hopes up too high because I doubt if they will change, especially if it has been going on for a long time.  \n\nHaving a spiritual relationship with God is what I suggest for bringing you peace of mind.  Prayer is what works for me. Find a special scripture in the Bible and think of that in times of stress, and when you have a troubled (sad) heart.\nGood luck,...and God Bless you.


There's this girl that works in the same building/company that I do and I've really been debating whether I should ask her out.  I'm very shy, but whenever we make eye contact, I just wanna drop everything related to work and get to know her.  If I were to ask here out, it would just be something platonic, nothing too serious for a first date.  I'm just nervous about the whole dating somebody at work thing.  She doesn't work directly with me, but I do see her everyday and would have to continue seeing her at work everyday even if things did go sour.  Maybe I should send a secret admirer gift for Valentines day, or would that be to weird/high schoolish?

Just make sure that there are no work regulations against dating within the company -- but otherwise I'd say go for it. If things go sour, just make sure that they don't rot and decay - because like you said, you do have to see her all the time.\n\nAnd don't send it "secret admirer".  Send it from YOU - that way she'll more than get the hint that you like her.

Drunk Dialing:  [druhngk dai-eling]  v. tr. - The act of calling an ex boyfriend or girlfriend on a telephone late at night, usually crying after getting really drunk.

Absolutely. Saying that slang terminology has no place in the dictionary is ridiculous. A hundred years from now someone reading a novel published in 2006 may see the phrase "drunk dialing" and not know exactly what it refers to. If it's in the dictionary, the answer is right there.\n\nThis is pretty much what lexicons are for.


it came out about 5 years ago and i can't seem to figure out who sang it. the chorus goes something like:\nshe's so high\nlike cleopatra\njoan of arc\nor aphrodite\n\nall i know is that it was a guy singing.

Tal Bachman (1999)\nShe's So High\n\nshe's blood flesh and bone \nno tucks or silicone \nshe's touch smell sight taste and sound \n\nbut somehow i can't believe \nthat anything should happen \ni know where i belong \nand nothing's gonna happen \n\n'cause she's so high \nhigh above me she's so lovely \nshe's so high like cleopatra joan of arc or aphrodite \nshe's so high high above me \n\nfirst class and fancy free \nshe's high society \nshe's got the best of everything \n\nwhat could a guy like me ever really offer \nshe's perfect as she can be why should i even bother \n\nchorus \n\nshe calls to speak to me \ni freeze immediately \n'cause what she says sounds so unreal \n\n'cause somehow i can't believe \nthat anything should happen \ni know where i belong \nand nothing's gonna happen \n\nchorus

I asked for a copy of my personnel file & she only gave me the pieces of paper that had my initials or signature on them, I don't think that's right.

depends on what state you are in.  in Illinois, the employer MUST provide a copy of the garnishment notice to you prior to making the initial payroll deduction.  After that the employer can make the employee pay for any additional copies.  In Illinois you, as an employee are entitled to a copy of any and all documents contained in your personnel file (the employer IS allowed to charge a copying fee as well as an administrative fee to produce the copies).


The recent cartoon controversy has got all sorts of demonstrations both violent and peaceful, has this changed your view of muslims, if so how?

It has not changed my view at all it has only reinforced my belief that thier religious leaders manipulate thier followers in order to gain more power over them by feeding the ignorant followers more BS. It took them 4 months to organize a protest.Suppressing free speech is an atrocity. Burning an embassy of a country because the nation it represents has a free press is a ludicrous, double atrocity. But the apologists for the Arab/Muslim world — those who worry about “cultural sensitivities” above all else — are surely gearing up to excuse the “outrage” expressed because of newspaper cartoons. There has been no similar fury over Iraq’s Muslim terrorists killing approximately 30,000 other Muslims. And yet, we have seething masses because of a cartoon


Two workers push horizontally on a refrigerator. One pushes due north with a force of 188 N and the other pushes due east with a force of 191 N. Find the direction of the resultant force. Express the direction to the nearest degree (use deg as the unit) measured from east.

There are two forces one, along the x-axis and another along the y-axis so the resultant force will be sqrt[sqr(188)+ sqr(191)] ,Which is equal to sqrt[36481 + 35344] =268.0018 N. Direction :  tan x = 188/191 thus, x is 44.5464 Degrees towards north from east. Thankyou

I'm an organizer of a singles' group in my area, and occasionally make the presentation for the week. My next topic: Ways a Man Can Impress a Woman He is Interested In (the guys in the group are sooooo looking forward to this one!).\n\nI have my topic pretty much prepared, but this forum is a valuable opportunity to hear from the rest of the world. So, girls, give me the goods. For you, what makes a guy stand out from all the others trying to get your attention? How does he go the extra mile to let you know that you are the icing on his cake? And what makes you take that next step - responding to him?\n\nGuys, this could be golden info for you! ;-)

On the last date I went on, we were eating at a restaurant and when we got up to leave, my date helped me put my coat on.  He was really good at it!  I made a comment about it and he said that his grandfather had taught him how.  It was a smooth little detail but it was very impressive.\n\nBy the way, in case you're wondering about the trick, he said it's to hold the coat lower than you would think.  This makes sense because it's hard to put your arm up when it's behind you.\n\nThat was a little thing, of course.  What really attracts me to a guy is a positive attitude and if he's willing to just have an open conversation with me.  If I feel like I'm doing all the work to keep the conversation going and on a positive note, that's a turn-off.

From Wikipedia:\n\n"Dale Earnhardt died on February 18, 2001, on the last lap of the Daytona 500. Earnhardt had what many thought was the best car throughout the race, as he led 17 laps and stayed at the front of the pack. But as Earnhardt saw the way the race was developing with his two drivers, one his son, Dale Earnhardt Jr., and the other a man he considered a brother, Michael Waltrip, it appeared Earnhardt backed off, trying to hold the pack at bay and let his two drivers decide the outcome. He decreased his speed to block the rest of the field when, in Turn 4, he was nudged by Sterling Marlin's bumper. It appeared Earnhardt had it saved but the car took off up the track. As it went up towards the wall it hit Kenny Schrader, which veered his car into a direct head on hit and severed the seat belt. Michael Waltrip went on to win his first race in over 400 races competed, and his son, Dale Jr. came in second. Earnhardt, who throughout his career let nobody get by him or stay in front of him, and did all he could to get by them including wrecking them, was killed on impact by massive head injuries trying to let another win. Coincidentally, the crash occurred at the same place where his good friend Neil Bonnett was killed. Because both crashes occurred as a result of a car dipping below the banking of the track onto the flat area (called the "apron" of the track) NASCAR implemented a new rule stating that in no instance is any car allowed to drive below the apron at Daytona, and at a similar track in Talladega, Alabama.\n\nHe is survived by his third wife Teresa and four children: Son Kerry (from his first marriage to Latane Brown), Kelley, Dale Jr. (both from his second marriage to Brenda Gee), and daughter Taylor (from his third marriage). Kerry and Dale Jr. are both NASCAR drivers. Dale Jr. finished second when his father died at the 2001 Daytona 500. The winner of that race, Michael Waltrip, was one of Dale's closest friends, and drove for DEI.\n\nThree weeks after Earnhardt's death, young California driver Kevin Harvick, who was hired to replace Earnhardt in the now-renumbered and repainted #29 GM Goodwrench Service Plus Chevrolet, scored a win at Atlanta. The Fox television commentators' call of the final lap of the 2001 Golden Corral 500, Harvick beating Jeff Gordon by .006 seconds, and the images of Earnhardt's longtime fueler, Danny "Chocolate" Myers, crying after the victory, are among the most memorable moments in recent U.S. motorsports history. Dale Earnhardt Jr. scored an emotional victory in the Pepsi 400 at Daytona International Speedway on July 7, 2001."


I've heard it's 99% effective but tonight I heard it may be more like 92%-99%. That's a big difference. Are there any instances where you or someone you know took the pills every day and still became pregnant? My girlfriend takes them everyday but I heard these figures and it scared me. Plus I know this girl who works in a pharmacy and she said that alot of women come in saying that the pill did not work. I need facts!

Most pills are 99 percent effective, assuming that you take them everyday at the same time.  Missing pills causes the percentage to go down.  Also, certain types of medications can also inhibit the pill's effectiveness.  This includes certain types of antibiotics, and I even heard smoking can lessen it's effectiveness.\n\nTalk to your doctor.  You can also call Planned Parenthood.\n\nI've heard many cases where a girl got pregnant on the pill, but they all fell within one of the two categories:\n-missed pills\n-took drugs that inhibited it's effects\n\nAs long as you are smart about taking your pills, you should be fine.  If you are super worried, you can always use condoms as well.


I can't sleep with clothes on because the always get twisted up.


Is this normal, I also change my eating habits so I can loose weight,not gain.

I agree with babybuttercup. Eat all your meals, don't skip any and have healthy snacks in between. Also, depending on the job you are doing, muscle weighs more than fat. if you are gaining muscle, that is ok and you will weigh more but be more toned and look like you weigh less. That is ok too. weight isn't everything, it's what you look like you weigh.

Girl, being popular doesn't mean it'll help you to be in the elite group. Sometimes, being popular is really a hassle coz ppl will talk about how you look, how you talk, just anything about you - till you cant breath coz the privacy ozone layer is getting thinner and thinner. Besides, by being popular, sure you'll have lots of ppl who wanna hang out with you, but how sure are you that they are sincere to be your friends? Will they be there whenever you need them? Just be yourself. You have to like and love yourself before worrying if others would like you.

The Bush administration said Friday it won't reconsider its approval for a United Arab Emirates company to take over significant operations at six U.S. ports.  The Bush administration continued to defend the deal Friday even as it admitted mishandling the decision-making process. \nRepublicans and Democrats in Congress have denounced the Bush administration for approving the deal through a secretive review process designed to protect national security in big corporate mergers.\n\nWhen are you going to admit Bush is behaving alone as a traitor to this country?

Bush is a puppet for the wolfowitz doctrine and other high profile secret societies. He is not for the people, he is for corporations, and making money for him and his cronies. Not helping any of use americans. Bush is a good puppet.


I tend to read a lot and a while ago my eyes were getting watery for 2 days n then it stopped what could it mean??

It could be an allergy.  Does it only happen when you read?  If so, you may need reading glasses.  It doesn't sound like anything too serious, but make an appointment with your eye doctor to find out what the cause is.

I have lots of stuff to sell especially old books but do not own a digital camera.and cannot afford one.I do not want to fall for the gimmicks people are offering to get potential sellers to buy what E-Bay teaches anyway so is my best option to read and learn on my own?Am I looking for shortcuts that I shouldn't be looking for or should I just resign myself to Self education? All opionions appreciated.

Posting an item to sell on Ebay is pretty simple.  They pretty  much walk you through the process.  When you get to their website, just click "sell" and it's pretty much fill-in-the-blanks from there.  But before you post your item, first think about what you want to say in your description, find out how much you are going to charge for shipping, etc.  Posting a picture of the item you are selling makes a big difference.  I know for myself, I usually don't even bother clicking an item that does not have a picture.  The picture of the item is the first thing that people notice.  Also, people will want to actually see what they are going to be paying for. There are some pretty inexpensive digital cameras nowdays.  If you are going to start selling on Ebay, really consider investing in a digital camera.  Do not pay for any selling-strategy gimmicks.  There are a lot of free resources on how to sell on Ebay.  Just search the web, or go to your local library and see if they have books.


How do you find out the degree of each angle on a regular pentogan? Not an irregular pentagon. I just need the equation to find the degree of the angles. Thanks.

The formula for finding the sum of the interior angles of a regular polygon is 180(n-2), where n is the number of sides. Thus, for a regular octagon, the sum of the interior angles is 180(8-2) = 180(6) = 1080 degrees. Each interior angle is thus 1080/8, or 135 degrees.\n\nBTW, I really hope you ignored the first responses (except the third one). The first person (first two replies) apparently has an idiot for a teacher.


This is my first computer and I really don't know how to do that.

Using your mouse, place the cursor at the beginning of the text you want to move so that you can highlight the text. Click and hold down the left mouse button and drag the cursor to the end of the text that you want to move. This will highlight (darken) the text. You now have several ways to cut the selection:\n\n1)      Click on the Cut icon (the scissors) on the toolbar, or\n\n2)      Select Cut from the Edit Menu at the top of the screen, or\n\n3)      Press and hold down the Ctrl key and press the X key at the same time, or\n\n4)      Press the Delete key.\n\nThe text will disappear.\n\nAfter you have cut the text, place your cursor at the location where you want the text to be displayed. Again, there are several choices to "paste" the text:\n\n1)      Click on the Paste icon (the clipboard on the toolbar), or\n\n2)      Select Paste from the Edit Menu at the top of the screen, or\n\n3)      Press and hold down the Ctrl key while pressing the V key at the same time.\n\nAny of these three choices will "paste" the selection in the new location.\n\nIf you want to copy some text and place it in another location, select the text as mentioned above. To copy:\n\n1)      Click on the Copy icon (the two pieces of paper on the toolbar), or\n\n2)      Select Copy from the Edit Menu at the top of the page, or\n\n3)      Press and hold down the Ctrl key while pressing the C key at the same time.\n\nTo Paste a copy of the text into a new location, follow the Paste directions above.\n\nBehind the Scenes\n\nWhen you use the Cut or Copy functions, the information is stored in the computer’s memory in an area called the Clipboard. Although you cannot see the information, it remains in the computer Clipboard until you use the Copy or Cut command again, at which time the information that was previously in the Clipboard is overwritten with the latest information that you just copied. Newer Microsoft Office Products, like Microsoft Word, allow you to keep more than one item in the Clipboard at one time.


If there is money left over from the estate of a person with no inheritor and no will dose the money go to the government? And if that’s the case what department?  Any detailed information or links would be. I am just curious

Usually "heir property." The person has relatives. It could be the great-aunts grand-daughter... They could be 10th cousin, but it would be "heir property." Which means before anything could be sold it would have to be signed by any heirs. Usually the only time it goes to the government is for expenses. For instance if the person was in a state home or something. It's an odd situation. However, most likely you're looking at heir property, which will sit there.


I think I like someone, but I don't know what people mean by "flirting."

It is very hard to become an astronaut, for either a girl or a boy.  Study as much math and science as you can. Be the best in your class, if possible.   Get good exercise every day.  If you are doing well in school when you are 13 or 14, write to your Congressman and ask how you can get his recommendation to one of the Service Academies.   Work hard.  Good luck to you.

In a pediatric patient and if so  do they  live?

I don't understand your question. Until emptiness? Are you talking about hydrocephalus or some other disease state?\n\nEDIT: Hmm. Now I better understand your question, but I have to admit I don't know the answer, it's not my area. It does sound rather severe. A Neurosurgeon is the best person to ask, if you have not already had an appointment with one. Is this congenital (child was born with this)?


I really like this guy.  I know I'm  supposed to be patient, but I don't know if I can anymore. All I wanna know is if he likes me.  If he dosen't thats fine.  If he dosen't hes not the one, then...  I dunno I just want someone to love right now.  I have my rabbit, parents, family, and friends but thats not enough.  I want someone to spend lots of time with that understand me unlike my parents, someone to hug/kiss and be hugged/kissed back.  How do I find out if he likes me? And if he dosen't how do I attract new love?

love comes at the most unexpected time and sometimes at the most unexpected person. sometimes you really just have to wait for the right guy to come along. but if you really like him you can show to him that he's special, make friends with him but don't expect too much because the higher your expectation the harder you fall.


Does anyone know or have a strong answer on if Roger Clemens will play this year?

Yes, for USA in the World Baseball Classic.  After that -- he hasn't decided, but my prediction is he will retire.  His manager recently said he is leaning that way. \n\n(He has many options, including returning to the Astros, but he'd have to wait until May 1 to do that.  My guess is that is the second most likely.)


Muslims thinks Americans are against Islam. If they are against Islam in the first place why would they let Muslims to settle and work in America and perform their religion.\nWhat do you think? \n\nNote: This is just a question I don't mean to hurt anyone.

Economics my friend.\n\nNo one is against no one here, but those of us who need the masses need to have a way of controlling them too.\n\nInfluence, makes you achieve results. Influence thoughts, outcomes, results and whatever you can.\n\nA lot of people are asking very risky questions, the interpertations may differ -but the questions will be answered one way or the other.\n\nAn irrational reaction is always the result of a dirth in personality. A gap within themselves that they like to fill up by creating a drama act around the facts.\n\nWHy do you think anybody would hate anyone, does anyone alive today had any say about our place, family, country, race, color or creed of birth? No. Nature had intended this and who can fight nature. We can only twist and turn but never undo whatever has been done.

I need a way of viewing a Microsoft Project file in a calendar view showing task notes.  I'd like to be able to export this view to a webpage.

I'm not aware of a way to achieve this.\n\nAn alternative, that you might already be aware of, would be print the view to a PDF file, and then post the PDF file on your webpage.  When you print the file you can go into page setup and select to include the notes - although they'll end up on a seperate page.\n\nThis obviously requires you to have a method to create PDF files - this is not a MS Project feature.


The human psyche has two great sicknesses: the urge to carry vendetta across generations, and the tendency to fasten group labels on people rather than see them as individuals. Religion fuels both. All violent enmities in the world today fuel their tanks at this holy gas-station. Those of us who have for years politely concealed our contempt for the dangerous collective delusion of religion need to stand up and speak out. Let’s stop being so damned respectful!

Religions already been exposed. It's just that some brainwashed cretins are not smart enough to see it for what is is.


handyman stuff to do at home.  What I feel is he is so selfish, I study at night to improve myself and get a better job.  What do you think?? Do you understand why he doesn't show his supportive to me?

Don't give up your studies.\n\nIf he doen't know how to cook, maybe you should teach him when you have free time. If he doesn't want to learn, cook dinner for him earlier so that he'll just reheat it in the evening.\n\nI really don't understand why he's like that. Maybe he's too lazy to do things on his own and that's why he depends on you. I think that's selfish.\n\nDon't give up on your goals and dreams just because of a guy who doesn't seem to care about you.


i like somone . and i think they like me . but neither of us have the courage to ask eachother. (i think) what should i do ?

As long as he isn't with anyone else I see no reason not to.  In fact, why make it such a secret?  Why not be open about it and see if a relationship develops.

This girl who i have been talking to relationship with her boyfriend is steadily going downhill... Me and her talk ALOT. She takes interest in me and i take interest in her..The only reason we arent going out now is the fact that she has a boyfriend. What type of compliments and stuff should i tell her to seal the deal? What would make her feel good and know that she'll be happier with me than him??

Just be honest with her. Let her know that you have feelings for her, which Im sure she already knows, but also let her know that you respect the fact that she is in a relationship and you would never jeapardize your friendship by telling her to leave her boyfriend. But also let her know that your there for her and that the decission to stay or leave the guy she is with will have to be her own... but if she ever did there is a guy waiting to be with her and wants to show her how if really feels to be loved.


Ok, besides the obvious answer (go to the doctor) does anyone have solid info referring to a pain that occurs just below the clavicle on the upper side of the shoulder blade (in back) on the left hand side.  It surfaces about 5 minutes into any rigorous cardio work like running or jumping rope.  Am I just getting older and out of shape or what?

I get knots on my left side.  It feels as if its under my shoulder blade.  I don't know if it is the same thing, but my massouse decided that I was sleeping wrong.  I slept with one arm under my pillow and it obviously kept my muscles tight up there.  I also lift my toddler everyday which doesn't help,  To help myself, I've just tried to relax my upper back and neck everytime I feel myself holding my shoulders up.  It's working so far.


My son now 18 years old, goes to college in the US on a scholarship. Can I obtain medical services for my son in case of an illness through a Masonic Lodge there ?? Any helpfull info will be appreciated.

I would contact a Lodge local to where your son attends school, or the Grand Lodge governing that State or Territory.


Would the tight packing of more insulation, such as glass wool, in an enclosed space \nincrease or decrease the insulation value? Explain.

It would decrease insulation.  Fiberglass insulation is engineered with air pockets for optimum heat retention.\n\nIf it WAS better to pack it in, manufacturers would sell a higher density product and charge more.

I am working on a paper that's due March 7th so the more information that I have right now the better.  Thank you so very much for your help. I could really use something on TQM

The United Auto Workers union obtained quite generous terms for their workers, with the result that foreign auto makers can make cars with much less cost, eroding the competitiveness of America's auto companies. Ford has declined because Toyota and Nissan have captured much market share away from GM, Ford, and Chrysler. Adding to this trouble are the underfunded pension liabilities at Ford. For further reference, check out <http://money.cnn.com/2006/01/30/news/pluggedin_fortune/>. Standard and Poor's stock Guide, available at most big libraries, is a good reference. Also, the Reader's Guide to Periodical Literature can point you to recent articles in business magazines such as Forbes, BusinessWeek, and Fortune. Barron's Weekly frequently discusses Ford's fundamentals.

does free speach stand in a probation officers office?

I am not sure about speech but I do know that when you are convicted of a crime you basically give up all rights that the constitution gives you. You do not have the right to denie them searching your house. You do not have the right to go anyplace you want. You do not have the right to vote. I don't see how they can take your right to free speech away but if they can they will. Once your debt to society is paid all rights are restored with the exception of the right to bare arms. However they can not take away what is known as your basic human rights.

we have a speciall conection that other people dont understand even I get confused sometimes so i m in trouble because I just can make any sense of it all but talking about it is out of the question

hm.  That's hard b/c they probably see you in a totally nonsexual way, and you need physical and sexual chemistry for a relationship to move beyond friendship.\n\nI say you have to work on upping the physical attraction... don't be sleazy, but why not flaunt what you've got a little?  Take some chances and flirt a little.  Eventually you'll come across a situation that's totally movie-worthy... you know, that awkward moment where you realize maybe you're more than friends and maybe you want to kiss...  I'd say go slowly, because if you start laying on the charm out of nowhere he may be confused and scared!

joint variation. directions- the variable z varies jointly with x and y use the given values to writ an equation relating x,y,and z. then find z when x=-4 and y=7

You are solving for k so it you need to rewrite the problem to look like this k=z/(xy) where x=3, y=8, z=6 substitute the letters for numbers so k=6/(3*8) k=6/24 or k=1/4 to check just solve for any other letter such as z by using what you know of k and you should come out with z=6

My fiance lives with his mom and he is 40, his son is now 8 and i dont know what to do. Do you think he is stalling? Should I stick it out or let him go?

I would say if you love him then wait until he is really ready, and if he loves you he will come around.

A beautiful one with no opinions, no personality, yet stylish or a not so pretty one that is funny and has a sexy attitude?

I find it truly interesting that all the anwers above are from women. I agree with their answer myself, but alas I know that beauty would probably win out. At least in the case of youth. With age, hopefully, comes some level of wisdom so I , as I grow older and leave my raging hormones behind, can now look at a women as a person an not just a peice of ass. My hope is the day will come when women are not objectified and served up to hormone crazed young men like so much raw meat; but alas, this is not that day.

My computer used to work fine then ( just yesterday), but now, everytime i connect (by the way i am using a dial up), it says cannot connect, remote modem..... how do i solve that?

First things first (connections, connections, connections), connect a phone to the phone line normally plugged into your modem.  Make sure you have a dial tone, and can call out.\n\nWhich service provider do you use?  It is possible the dial-up number you have set is no longer valid.  If you can call, or check from another on-line source, check the number you dial-up.\n\nDo you have the sound on your modem enabled until it connects?  If so, can you hear the pinging and static-like synchronization sounds?  If it sounds like it's trying to sync, but failing, there are several factors that could affect the connection:\n\n1.  Bad/damaged modem.\n2.  Bad/damaged phone cable.\n3.  Service provider changed their modem parameters causing sync issues.\n4.  Service provider changed initialization string for your modem causing sync issues.\n5.  Static on phone line.\n\nIf you receive a "no dial tone" error, try a new phone cable.  If that doesn't work, replace the phone jack.\n\nIf you receive a "no carrier", or timeout error, the other end is not picking up.  Contact your service provider to make sure the dial-up number is still good.\n\nUltimately, you can try purchasing a new modem (I'd recommend an external USB modem to avoid having to crack open your PC) to see if it makes a difference.


human beings are always unpredictable,though they decide to live according to what they have planned today as per the demand of the situation but they get swayed by the environment arround them or u can say it is the intrinsic nature which forces them to get indulged and the consequences are always bad,so how can one work on it?why is it so difficult to resist the instant desires?

I think that it is possible that a human being can spend their life without a partner, but it is not the normal thing to do because we evolved as social creatures.  I would not say that people are swayed or cave into peer pressure to partner, but that it is against our nature to be alone, and it is impossible to live from birth without some sort of partner because we are not born self-sufficient.  Most people who spend their lives alone do so because they have suffered some sort of trauma, or they have mental health issues.


seriously - those black and white photos - most people in them are fat.  There was no junk food back then, no TV to sit around and stare at for hours, they grew their own food and worked all day on their farms, how did they get fat back then?

EATING TOO MUCH AND SLEEPING. OBVIOUSLY THEY WERE HEALTHY FAT. AND NOT OVERWIEGHT, BUT FAT WITH MUSLE


I'm re-reading Wayyiqra (Leviticus) about the sin offerings and feast days etc...and was just wondering.

Initially I was not going to answer this question, because you already had a number of people respond.  Then I read the answers and most of them contain misinformation.  So I thought that you should get an answer from someone that actually knows about this subject.\n\nTo Jews, there is no such thing as the "Old Testament".  We Jews use something called the Tanakh, which is the Jewish bible.  Jews do not recognize the texts of the Christian church.\n\nJesus has no meaning in Judaism!  Jews are still awaiting the coming of the messiah, and according to the Gospels, Jesus didn't fulfill the prophcies of the Jewish Messiah.\n\nAs far as sacrifice goes, the only place that a blood sacrifice was done was in the temple in Jerusalem.  In 70 CE (AD) the Romans destroyed the temple (this was the send time the temple was destroyed).  When the temple is not available, prayer takes the place of the sacrifice.\n\nSince the Jews have not had a temple for almost 2000 years, prayer has come to replace sacrifice.  Even if the temple were to be rebuilt in the future, prayer will still remain the main method used to expiate sin within Judaism.


Someone said this, "I think that when we vote for our nations leader we should vote based on his qualifications and whether or not the things he proposes to do will benefit our country. Who cares what he/she looks like on the outside as long as they are an american citizen who has good ideas for change or improvements for all. As for timing, we could have had a black man/woman or any woman a long time ago. People that aren't white or male didn't just start getting smart."

A lot of people dislike Liberals because they have ideas that are not based specifically around faith and religion. Some people also think that just because they are not as conservitive that they will make decisions too quick and make a mess of the world. People just figure, "Better be conservitive and safe then liberal and on edge and sorry!"


I know they don't have much of a chance now, but can they fight back for at least the 8th spot?

i have a really nice stereo system, and i want to know if there is a way to connect the ipod(video), and listen to my music at home.

The easiest way in this case is to buy one of the many FM transmitters for your iPod, this is but one example, http://catalog.belkin.com/IWCatProductPage.process?Merchant_Id=&Product_Id=140984 just so long as you keep the iPod close to the stereo you will get pretty good quality.  Now, if your stereo has RCA inputs on the back (check the manual or look for Red and White input plugs) you will be able to get a very cheap mini-jack Y-splitter cable and simply connect the mini-jack to your iPod and plug the red and white ends into the stereo, this is your best option to maintain a quality signal if you have the inputs.  The best thing is, this type of cable can be had for less than $8 at RadioShack (or electronic store of your preference), http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2110460&cp=&pg=2&kw=rca+cable&parentPage=search

Not the temptation sh*t that your fellow posters are talking about, run of the mill stuff.  You dont need any help for the stuff those guys are talking about...\n\nYou want to dance with Mr. D, you got to go out of your way to do so.  And usually, you got to have something to offer in return.\n\nGo back and read the posts so far;  Ask yourself what could those people offer that he doesn't already have???


anyonw has any good notes or website on it so i can revise? thanks


I havent been with this person yet but I just dont trust that he doesnt have anything. Should I use extra protection or should I just not be with him?

Something is telling you not to trust this man. Why are you hesitating? Trust your gut feeling. There is nothing wrong with telling him no. You will find someone who you trust. Besides sex should be without love.


Muslims say that God is one and its also mentioned in Bible. follow tha link below for proof.\n\ngo for Christianity-->Concept of God links\n\nhttp://www.irf.net/irf/comparativereligion/index.htm\n\nBut Christians reply with a verse\n\n‘I and my father are one’[Gospel of John, Ch. No.10, Verse No.30]\n\nif we see the context then we come to know that one means in purpose . but still if chrstians say no .one means one as a person then there is one more verse which says\n‘Ye all of them are one - My father in me, and I in thee, we all are one’.[Gospel of John, Ch. No.17, Verse No.21]\nJesus said this to his 12 disciples. so if one means one as a person does that mean that there 14 gods .. God,Jesus and 12 disciples ?

good question!\n\nalot of debate ... i'd really like to know the answer from our christian friends\n\n\n=====================\n\nUPDATE\n\n\naron! is that the way you defend your religon ... by insulting others?\n\nthis section on Yahoo Answers meant for proper discussions between all religons and civilizations ... so why you respond in that silly way!


i was hoping she'll go for gold..but would this hurt the U.S. in winning more gold in ice skating?

My son is 15 and still kills things and if he is not killing them he is blowing them up or beating the tar out of them.

Kills things? Like animals? \nBlowing them up?\n\nMa'am, this is known as cruelty to animals and is not normal. I think when you said "beating the tar out of them" you meant people, so your kid gets into fights. If he consistently is in fights, uses weapons in fights, looks for fights, abuses animals, etc. then he could very likely have a behavioral disorder. You should see a psychiatrist or psychologist. \n\nGenerally I'm not a big fan of psycho-babble, mostly it seems like a load of excuses. But the way your kid acts now will define who he is in the future. Someday he might not be blowing up animals. He might be blowing up people.\n\nNip delinquintism in the bud--find a way to stop it now, before its too late. THIS IS NOT A PHASE. normal teenage guys don't go around killing things.


The phrase was in the movie "Good Will Hunting" but it has been around for much longer than that.

Origins are unknown but certainly appear to be based in a sarcastic reponse, perhaps to an apple merchant. I am not kidding.


my lady says she loves me but has been seeing her ex alot lately. they were divorced 5 yrs ago with no contact until recently. my mind says get out now, my heart says work on it. I'm a libra and can't just quit..

It probably means it is time to move forward.  If she has been seeing her ex often, it means they are working on getting back together.  It will be easy for you to just end it now instead of waiting until she ends it.  Psychological it is always better to end it first.  You have better closure.\n\nBut before doint this, have a heart to heart with her on her feelings.  If you sense that she is interested in getting back with her ex, let her go.  You have been good to her, but she has unresolved issues with her ex.  You will find someone else.

It's best to scan with several virus/spyware programs. There's several online ones free that you can use. I like panda and bitdefender best because they've found the most viruses. Bitdefender is slower but supposedly high rated. Norton causes crashes on startup sometimes. AVG is a lemming that tells you where the virus is and doesnt really remove it. Adaware is best for removing spyware.\nhttp://www.jimmyr.com/security.php


Be yourself.  Don't be swayed by what others say or think if it doesn't ring true in you.\n\nFollow your heart.  Don't let your dreams get shoved aside because they're not "practical" or "no money in it".  Life is so much more than a paycheck.\n\nBe patient with love and choose carefully for life.  It takes time to find the right one.  Don't be afraid to "not settle".  But when you know it's right, hold on and don't let go.

i want to know which is more secure, friendly use, cheeper. all related differences

Microsoft SQL Server and Oracle Database are both relational database products that are used to store and organize information. The major differences are:\n\n1. Procedure languages: SQL Server uses T-SQL while Oracle uses PL/SQL.\n\n2. Platforms: SQL only runs on Windows (duh) while Oracle runs in Unix, Linux, and Windows.\n\n3. Oracle is marginally more expensive than SQL server. In addition SQL server has more add-on products included.\n\n4. Oracle is generally recognized as more scaleable than SQL  server -- primarily due to support on large SMP Unix hardware.\n\n5. SQL Server is intented to be more user-friendly and does not require a specialized DBA to maintain the database.\n\n6. SQL Server supports many extensions using .NET while Oracle integrates with Java.\n\n7. Oracle supports more advanced features for data objects, maintenance functions, and database partitioning, though SQL is catching up.\n\n8. Oracle has been considered as generally more secure. SQL's security issues are often related to Windows issues. Later versions of both products have much improved security.\n\nPicking a database is a complicated and you need to be careful to define your client and backend requirements.

At a given instant in time, the forces resisting the motion, including kinetic friction and air resistance, total 450 N. The mass of the bobsled and its riders is 240 kg. \n\nWhat is the magnitude of the force propelling the boblsed forward?\n\nWhat is the magnitude of the net force that acts on the bobsled?

Hello, \n\nThis problem is a bit more involved than you might initially think. There are 4 major considerations you must take into account. First, the acceleration is dependant on the angle of the hill at any given time. Therefore, acceleration is NOT constant, rather fluctuating with the incline. Second, the wind resistance is NOT constant by any means. It increases exponentially with the speed of the sled. Third, the force of the kinetic friction is not constant either. While the coefficient of friction does increase somewhat with speed (you could use an average for this), you cannot neglect the increase in friction when the sled goes around a corner. As you know, the friction is based on the normal force of the sled. At 90mph, the centripetal acceleration around a curve is V^2/r (V=velocity, r is radius of corner) which becomes quite considerable, even though steel on ice only has a kinetic coefficient between .01 - .05. \n\nNow that I have bored you out of your mind, the full equation would look something like this (I’m writing everything longhand so you know what I’m talking about)\nSum of the forces = mass x gravity x sin(angle of hill) – [(coefficient of friction) x mass x gravity x cos(angle of hill) – mass x velocity ^2 / radius of curve] – (Force of air drag)\n\nNotice the term included to account for curves: – mass x velocity ^2 / radius of curve\nDrops to zero when they are going in a straight line (r = infinity). \n\nTo find your acceleration (at a specific point in time), you simply divide everything by the mass of the sled and there you go!\n\nPS. don't take physics advice from dental students ;P


Ok well I really like him but I don't want people to think that I only date black guys.  I say that because ex who was my first boyfriend was black.  I hate being judged.  Help please.

I'll put it like this: People are gonna judge you no matter what. If he wasn't black and he was white SOMEBODY would find SOMETHING wrong with the relationship. All you can do is live your life and if you like black guys, go for what you know, ya feel me? I'm black and I love women of all races so you can ALWAYS holla at me :)

I too had such a problem. I tried to delete a folder containing just pdf files, but wasn't able to delete even after exiting adobe reader.

You shouldn't, because many people will not make it back to school, be late getting back, get into accidents while hurrying out, etc.  They might get into a fight while out there--who would be responsible for them?  They are more likely to do drug deals or have sex if they can leave school during the day.  If we thought about it, we could probably come up with a dozen more reasons that high schools should have a closed campus at lunch.


i'm tryibg to get "in" to the industry but have few connections. anyone know how i can get jobs directing films (short and full length), t.v. shows, and commercials? thanx

Sometimes film school helps.  Otherwise, you probably need to look at entry level positions and work your way up.


This song plays alot on popular stations and in supermarkets

Its Elton John singing "Sacrifice"\n\n"And it's no sacrifice\nJust a simple word\nIt's two hearts living\nIn two separate worlds\nBut it's no sacrifice\nNo sacrifice\nIt's no sacrifice at all"


This happened to me just this morning. I work for a security firm for an airport and a couple was starnded there with no money or a place to stay. I made a few phone calls and got them food and help? I just wondered how you out there would handle it if you came across a person who badly was like starving and needed food. What would ya do?

Give them some food.  I don't like to give out money because who knows what they'll spend it on.


i need this for a physics assignment and i couldn't find it on the net..thanks! :D

When lighning strikes, is causing the surrounding air to get extreamly hot and expand very quickly, causing thunder.\n\nSince you can see the efffects of lighning, you can tell pretty much instantly when a bold a lightning struck, it takes virtually no time for the light to travel to you.\nOn the other hand, the sound of the thunder travels at the speed of sound (MUCH slower than light), so it can take a significant amount of time for you to "hear" the effects of the lighning.\n\nSince the lighning bolt and the thunk clap pretty much occur at the same time, using the difference in the amount of time for you to detect them can tell you how far away they occured (since we know the approx. seed of sound is ~5 miles / sec).\nFor every 1 second that goes by between seeing the lighning and hearing the thunder, you are 5 miles away from there it occured.


This question orginiated from the Merchant of Venice by W. Shakespeare

Ah The Merchant of Venice, one of Shakespeare's greatest plays.  When you look at the play, you can see this clearly played out.  Shylock signs a legally binding contract with _____ (it's been a while since I've read the play) that if he fails to pay the loan, Shylock will gather the man's flesh in usury.  When Shylock takes the contract to court, though, he is cheated out of his contract and exiled.  Of course, Shylock pursues cold justice and loses, but _____ shows mercy on the friendless and now daughterless Shylock by having him exiled instead of killed.  I found reading the Book of Ezekiel at the same time as The Merchant of Venice to be quite interesting, because this is one of the few books in the Old Testament that condemns the Jews explicitly for extorting usuries.  Basically the book is about how Israel turns its back on God (he compares it to a bride-turned hooker with no charge) and how he has stood this long enough.  But Ezekiel 39 comes as a sort of contrast when God has mercy on the Israelites and pledges to return them from their exile, displaying immense mercy.  Just thought I'd throw that in there if you want to whip out a novewl viewpoint in your class/papers.


I thought there was only one method.....i.e. add up the number of decimal places in the two decimals that you are multiplying and then move over that many places and put your decimal?????  What's the second method?


Im using Adobe Photoshop CS2 under Windows XP SP2.  My system is a P3 450MHZ, nvidia Geforce2 MX videocard, and an Asus P3B mobo.  Everytime I go into Photoshop, then perform a fill or print a photo, the application as well as my entire OS locks up and i have to power off the system.\n\nBesides Photoshop locking up the system, everything is completely stable.  No other app does this.  I've performed a clean reinstall and all hardware components are seated properly.  Im using the latest drivers from nVidia and have performed a complete XP windows update.

Need a faster CPU buddy. Or at least a whole bunch of extra memory. It may seem your OS is locked up, but Photoshop might just be working to do what you requested. I don't know how much RAM you can fit, but shoot for 512 MB or more... Any more questions, just reply or email me at cjmclellen@yahoo.com


This refer to above question. When I will be able to know that I had a complete sleep in night. What is the average hour of sleep in a night. My Age is 32 hieght-1.72m, weight 75 kg

if you are normally active you need 5-7 hour total sleep during a 24 hour period. limit your naps to 20 minutes or you will feel sleepy the rest of your day or night. if you are not active you could probably stay in bed all day and night. get some fresh air and some sunlight

Beans like to climb. If you give them alot to climb on and keep them off the ground they will grow to astonishing heights. The main thing to do when planting anything you want to propogate and grow well is the "preparation". If you are starting a new garden, then pick your spot and strip a couple inches of grass and roots off of the area. Put a border around the area that is below the grade by at least 2" - 6 " ( the deeper the better to keep out the unwanted grass and weeds) Next till the soil with a roto-tiller preferably or by hand if you wish. Either way you want to pulverize the earth into a fine smooth mixture. depending on what you are working with and what you are planting, you may want to add something to the soil to give it a boost for your plants/seeds. ie. compost, top soil, sand (if too clayish) whatever it takes to make a dark rich soil. (except for tuber plants which like more sandier soils) Anyway once you pulverize and aerate the soil it sould be alot higher than the surrounding grade. next pull the soil in to the middle from the edging creating a ditch around your garden for run off. Now level the rest of the area being careful not to fill in your ditch. Note: step on the area as little as possible so you wont compact the soil again. Now that you have it all leveled out you can make rows about 12 - 18" wide with a walking ditch beside each row. So essentially what youi'll have is from left to right the outer ditch a row with a peak going down into another walking ditch and then a row peak and so on until you reach the other side. Now you are ready to plant. Follow directions on plants/seeds for spacing. Also you should plant taller plants behind shorter growing ones. Behind meaning that the shorter growing plants get sunlight and not shade from tall plants. Also climbers i.e. beans should be at one end or side depending on sun orientation. The ditches will provide ample area for watering your plants. Water your plants themselves before or after they get their sun not during. you can water in the ditches anytime as long as you don't wet the plants themselves. Hope this helps you. I've been gardening for many years and in every type of climate. Good luck and many stressless days ... gardening one of the last stress relievers that you can enjoy all through the winter months .... my freezer is always full of something from the garden.

it isn't the "view"- text size option,  the text is fine.  the screen is just too big.  i have to move left and right on every web page

Your screen resolution may be too big.  Here's how to reduce it.\n\nRight-click anywhere on your desktop, then choose Properties.  Click the Settings tab.  Look at the setting for Screen Resolution.  It's probably at 640 X 480, or 800 X 600.  Move the slider to the right to choose a higher resolution (it makes everything smaller).  Click OK, and any confirmation screen OK.  If you like it, just click the confirmation OK in time and you're set.  If you don't, click Cancel and start over.

i am about to be 18.And i am about to graduate from school and im also pregnat.. and the person im with right now i feel like he is the right one..This boy is my 1st love and i want him to be my husband. so should i wait or go for it

How does he feel? That is perhaps the most important question here. Since you are pregnant, your baby coming from a broken home is going to be determined by your relationship with this boy. If he is agreeable to it, why not make a commitment to raise your child together by getting married? Normally 18 is a bit young to be getting married because people change a lot from 18 to their mid-twenties and since for most of us that is the age that we get our first taste of freedom, this could spell disaster when we realize that our husband/wife has a right to be involved in our life to a great extent. This can feel like a lack of freedom. Also, having a baby can make people feel trapped, especially males. It will be hard but if you two are in love and he's a good guy, know that statistically you would be doing the best thing for your baby if you were married. \nTry to give to your partner instead of only giving as much as your partner does. Tell him about that resolve. Giving can be very contagous but so can being hurtful. A loving word can stop anger dead in its tracks in a marriage. It takes two to fight but only takes one to defuse a bomb. Try to make your first instinct to defuse the situation. Take care of all 3 of you, and I hope our e-opinions help you.

Do you find that you are more bigoted than you use to be when you were younger?  If you do, what do you think prompted the change?

I'll be 40 in a couple months, and am still pretty open-minded.  However, my mother surprises me with some of the things she says sometimes, and I've wondered the same thing you're asking...  \n\nAfter all, she was the primary influence in my life, so if she can be so intolerant, how did I find a way to connect and relate to almost everyone I meet, regardless of gender, ethnicity, religion or socioeconomic background?


The weight of each person should put more and more weight on earth and eventually there should be enough weight to through the rotation off and the earth would go out into space.

You'd have to get everyone on one side of the planet for the weight to do anything. And even then, you'd need a lot more than we have.


If I'm not mistaken, Google gives the search results by the number of people actually visiting a site. But sometimes it is likely that we miss some good sites due to low page ranking. But still they may provide very good information on what we want. If you heard about 'Kosmix', it is a new search engine still being developed by two Indians. The results aren't displayed 'entirely' by page ranking but are categorized according to the information they provide, I mean definition of the word, expert information, sales, services, journals, blogs and that kind of stuff.\nAnd the developers are saying that 'Kosmix' can give information faster than Google. \n\nhttp://kosmix.com/\n\nSo what do you think? 'Kosmix' is the future leader in search engines?\n\n\n\nrule wid style n luv@vinny

All i can say is based on my personal experience is that Kosmix could be the next google. Because even before google there were googles.\n\nSorry if i confused you, i shall explain.\n\nFirst the main search engine was Altavista then came Ask Jeeves followed by Yahoo and now google.\nThe only reason many know about google is because only in the recent years did many people start using the net and because of Googles good marketing, everyone knows it.\nBut for me personally, even today a site that gives me reliable results is Yahoo. When compared to Google, Yahoo is more trickier to use. But if you master it, google is nothing in front of Yahoo.And another point being that, one of the main reason why google got famous is because of its search speed and absence of picture ads. But now yahoo is also catching up in speed wise by going for text ads instead of picture ads.\n\nGoogle may be fast but not that accurate. And generally talking, the internet searching solution have only reached 10% or less and there is a long way to go.\nThat's one more reason as to why google is diversifying into email,im,blogs and a calendar is on the way.\n\nAs for Kosmix, i did give it a shot. Must say that they have a long way to go. And if they have to beat google, they have to prepared for one hell of a battle ahead of them. Its a battle about technology and marketing.\n\nTalking of diversifying, its seen that most people prefer their email providers and search engine to be from the same site. And so if Kosmix has to survive, they too need to diversify.\n\nLets not forget that Google has one the best servers on earth. Even though officially its believed that Google has over 10,000 servers but some Analyst claim that its actually over 80,000. And Google is one of the leaders in Cluster Computing.\n\nCurrent most of the people are addicted to google and some seriously believe that google is the ONLY search engine on earth.


i didn't take breakfast also, but i am faty and my belly is more

The best way to lose fat is simple - exerise. If possible, do some cardio first thing in the morning before eating any full meals. This burns the maximum amount of fat. Since your body has not had any food for the last 7-10 hours, it burn the fat in your body for energy. If not, then cardio and a little weight lifting anytime of the day will do. It is important to build some muscle since it will aid in your fat loss. The more muscle mass you have, the faster your metabolism.\n\nAlso, try eating small meals more frequently as opposed to the big 3 (breakfast, lunch, dinner). try to eat a small meal every 3 hours. The reason for this is that your body burns more calories since it is constantly digesting something in your stomach and will raise your metabolism. It is also useful to eat small meals because your stomach will not be stuffed and will always have a smaller look. If you are afraid of doing this because you might end up eating more, try this: when you are about to eat lunch, separate everything on your plate into 2. eat half and leave the other half to be eaten 3 hours later. do the same with dinner.\n\nlastly, losing weight is just simple math. If your calories taken in is more than when you use up (exercise, daily activities, metabolism, etc) then you gain weight. If it is less, then you lose weight. If you are really determined to lose weight then i suggest you start counting how much calorries you consume a day and cut it by 300-500 each week until you notice some results.\n\nPS. if you are really serious, avoid eating foods high in sugar without any real nutritional value (chocolate, cakes, doughnuts, ice cream, all desserts) and foods way up there in the calorie scale (pizza, fried anything, etc)


Pick a person you are around for one day. Spouse, child, sibling, friend, co-worker. Without them knowing you are doing this...tally each time they say something negative. At the end of the day answer this question with the reults. You may be suprised. Look for negative words, like don't, can't, shouldn't etc

I consider myself an agnostic, but I was raised Lutheran, and I was given the impression from my early days in our small Lutheran school that Heaven was this wonderful, perfect place where everybody was always happy and nobody was ever sad.  However, thinking about this idea more it occurs to me that the same thing doesn't make everybody happy.  Say you know somebody who likes you but you don't like them; their idea of heaven would be to spend the rest of eternity with you but you'd much rather...not.  Or, say in Heaven you'd really love to have a fancy car and make all your heavenly neighbors jealous, but of course that situation would hardly make your neighbors happy.\n\nWhat does everybody think Heaven would truly be like?  Are we different people when we get to heaven, so that we're all happy with the same thing? (That idea itself doesn't make me very happy; I'd prefer to go on being who I am, thank you very much.)  Or is there another answer that I'm overlooking?

Every description of heaven that i've heard sounds simply awful.  To be with this big ole' sky daddy who already knows everything would be the most disheartening thing there could be.  What would be the point of striving, of working, of trying, of learning, if some god character already had all the answers?\n\nReligous people don't think it through. The whole "no more worries, no more toil" sounded great to the primitive people who created religions, they slaved in the fields all day and didn't get a vacation in their whole lives.  But modern man has discovered that there's much more to life than a simple roof over your head or manna in your pot.\n\nSome thiests defend the concept by saying that you would lose your earlthy desires once you were in heaven. That's WORSE!  Instead of outright letting you die, this "god" of theres makes something inhuman, something alien of you.  Because without the desire to compete and achieve, without the ability to be useful (and who needs you with god around?) you are no longer human.  I'd rather join the Borg.


a siamese twin (#1) to choose to get separated from his or her twin (#2) at the cost of twin 2's life? If the second twin depended on the first twin for life, but being attached caused problems for the first twin, who wanted a normal life. Assume that both twins have equal (and normal) mental capacities and are adults. normally we would say that people have the rights to their own bodies, but how would the morality of a case like this be decided? also, even if you say that it would be immoral for twin #1 to choose to be separated, would it be moral for the state to deny twin #1 the right to control/privacy of his or her own body?\n\nAlso, for extra points: do you know if any such situation has ever arisen? what would the law (in the place you live) say about this?

I think this type of situation is extremely rare.  It is unlikely that a situation in which one twin was dependent upon the other would not be medically dangerous for the stronger twin.  It is not uncommon for conjoined twins to share organs, and it is often the case that separation would allow the survival of one and not the other, but in the situation you described it is unlikely that the twins would survive to adulthood.\n\nThat said, I don't think its realistic to attempt to give conjoined twins the right to privacy from each other.  Given that the decision of separation would effect both their bodies, I don't think it could be made unilaterally by one of the twins.  I think the surgery would require mutual concent.  And if the weaker twin consented, it becomes an issue of assisting suicide.

Different environments will select for different traits.\n#3)  Do the members of the different islands have the ability to reproduce with each other?

ooh yeah this is my e-mail sansinmederly2@yahoo.com


you e-mailed a former professor (married) and told him you wanted to sleep with him? And then did it again stating that you're waiting and gave him your phone number.

Well, if he knows exactly who it's from....this hypothetical situation could, and most likely will, get ugly.  It's sexual harassment, if unwanted, which is heavily penalized by the U.S. law.


K, my best friend is a guy. He just became my best friend at the start of this school year. His girlfriend thinks i'm trying to steal him beacuse i hang out with him. Then, we were talking about science class, and we were able to choose partners for next weeks project. so he said he'd be with me for science. When the prodject rolled around, he wouldn't be partners with me because his girlfriend told him not to. All in all, MY BEST FRIENDS GIRLFRIEND IS CONTROLLING HIS LIFE!!!! HE WON'T HANG OUT WITH ME CUZ OF IT!!!!

Have you tried talking to him about it? maby it would help, but i'm not an expert lol :)


Is refusing to release her record until she looses 20 pounds. Has anyone else heard of this?  If it is true I think it is sad that hollywood is so ticky about weight gain.  What about all the other fat stars around that are making millions? Why is Janet different?  So what if she needs to loose a few pounds.

yeah i heard that too. I also heard she gained the weight to do a movie but now they dont want to do the movie anymore b/c the director claims the whole production has ran out of money for the film.


Would you ask GOD for one more another chance? or would you just accept it,destiny? Do you believe in HEAVEN and HELL and if so,where ever you go,would you deserve to be there? Do you fear death, or welcome it? Do you believe that there is life after death and since we start dying on the first day we're born,isn't life death?...and wouldn't death be life,since our spirit lives forever? I want to see the face of GOD the LORD JESUS....what about you? I want to dwell in HEAVEN,don't you?

WoW! Interesting and deep questions...\nI would get on my knees and pray, but not just on my last day; praying everyday is a good thing.\nI would accept it being my last day, because what ever is God's will is fine...and I do believe there is a better life after this earthly, physical life. As for fearing death, I'm pretty sure I would, but again, there is something greater to look forward to, and God says that this life is nothing compared to the afterlife. So...I do believe in Heaven, but not the "mythical" sitting around on a cloud thing that some of us learned in some churches. I believe Heaven to be as you said, "to see the face of God" and Jesus Christ"...and much more than that. Those chosen to be in God's government, ( as opposed to these corrupt, worldly governments that exist now, will be wiped away, along with all the misery and suffering!) will help set up a fair and right government, which keeps God's laws, ( not all these man made B.S. laws!) This new system of living will allow people to learn to live God's way, with peace and happiness. (I'm sure there will be opposition on this!) Many more wrongs of this messed up world, will be corrected...Lots of work to do! No time to just sit on a cloud!\nAs for HELL!!! I believe that, as the Bible says, it is a consuming fire, and that it serves the purpose of burning up those who will not accept God's law, after they have been taught in the future. It will be as if they never existed; so basically, we are all given the chance to learn God's ways, either in this lifetime, or in the next...amd hopefully, we'll accept it, and not be destroyed in hell! There is also the mythical "Dantes Inferno" which influences us to think of hell as an ever burning punishment...I don't believe this is true at all...God is loving and merciful, and will give us another chance to learn how to live, how to love, how to obey, how to be happy, how to live harmoniously with one another, no wars, how to worship etc.....and IF we continue to want to live, as we do now, with Satan's influence dominating this messed up world, that's it! Stick us with a fork! We're done!!!

the answer in my book says its only 2X but i've re-worked it a few times. i know using the rules and properties of differentiation that 2X is obviously right, but the homework said to use teh formal definition only, and i get (2x+h). what is going on?

Remember, though, that h is approaching zero!  So now plug 0 into 2x + h and you get 2x.


This property is my individual homestead with very old mobile home{singlewide}. One quarter acre of land. there is a connecting quarter acre with a wooden building in run down but usable condition,on a separate deed and is considered part of homestead on property appraisers list.There is another person on the deed whom I would rather not include in the mortgage decisions or paperwork at all.I only want ten or fifteen thousand dollars.Other person on deed has undischarged banruptcy from fourteen years ago.My credit is excellent, semi retired, with other real estate assets.

Since you have another on the deed, you probably will need them involved. You can probably get a home equity line of credit with your exixting mortgagor for 80% of the balance your property is worth, with the other person's approval. Try getting a credit card that will give you checks, if you don't want the other party to have knowledge. If your credit is good, it won't be an issue. Check your existing credit, close out unused lines of credit, you are entilted to one free credit report annually. try the link below.You may need more than one credit card to get the amount of cash you want. There may be fees involved too. Do you have access to a credit union or bank? Personal loans are also higher in interest rate. If you are retired you may want to look at your other assetts:  401 k, IRA, pension, etc.


how to find max loan amount in real estate mortgage

Commercial or residential?\n\nFor either there are various rules that effect LTV (Loan to Value)\n\nIn residential the max loan can be limited due to income or occupancy type along with other factors.\n\nIn commercial, the LTV is determined by calculating the NOI ( net operating income ) and several other factors.


is it better/easier to live in austin or dallas(jobs,commute,hunting/fishing, standard of living, cost of living, etc)?

I'm curious as to college's views on it.

its not bad,but it may be a waste. You lose nothing by taking the A.P exam . you dont have to share your scores. The only downfall to not taking the exams is that you might have scored high and got a chance to skip a class in college. If you do take it and dont get a certain score the beauty is you dont  have to share that score!! But please, this is a question for a quidence counselor not here. talk to them for specifics.

i have been showing all the signs of liking this guy but he wont take a hint my friends tell me they heard he liked me also what should i do

invite him for coffee, for tea, for lunch.  show more care about him.  if he was more away. that means he doesn't deserve you.  otherwise, it means he likes you.  yes not necessarily so you have to take care and be always in the middle. hold the head of the robe.

I heard Green Day is going to make a new music video, but...\n     WHAT SONG??? What grammy award winning song will it be next?

I don't think they are going to do another video off of American Idiot, since they stopped touring and said they want to begin work on another album and stick at home for a while. But I did hear something about Give me Novacaine once.

Take your time with this relationship.  But no sex, or you will end up sending him to prison and end his military career before it begins.  Both of you are young, you may be very mature, but the law requires you to be older to give consent to having sex.  If he is willing to be in a relationship without sex until you are 18, then go for it.  If he is not willing to wait, don't get him in trouble by having sex with him.


Means I should add the money I got back for the 2004 to the total income this year and pay taxes for it. Who knows if that's the federal law? Thank you.

That sounds like a state refund you got last year.\nIn California, if you got a state refund in 2004 you must report it as income in your federal income tax for 2005.\nThere are exemptions like if you itemized last year and you don't this year.\nConsult your tax professional.
