Over the past 100 yrs Turkey's population has greatly increased, even tripling. But by an algebraic analysis Turkey's population is soon expected to peak then severly decline. Does anyone know the cause for this and what could be done about it?

I suggest learning english first.  Studies show that you think in the language you speak.  And obviously your language is degraded.  Try an upgrade.


Each translation has subtle but distinct differences which make it difficult to determine if the Father  and Jesus are equal, or if Jesus is the first-created of God.

"  1) There is one God: Deuteronomy 6:4; 1 Corinthians 8:4; Galatians 3:20; 1 Timothy 2:5.\n\n2) The Trinity consists of three Persons: Genesis 1:1; 1:26; 3:22; 11:7; Isaiah 6:8; 48:16; 61:1; Matthew 3:16-17; Matt 28:19; 2 Corinthians 13:14. In the passages in the Old Testament, a knowledge of Hebrew is helpful. In Genesis 1:1, the plural noun "Elohim" is used. In Genesis 1:26; 3:22; 11:7 and Isaiah 6:8, the plural pronoun for "us" is used. That "Elohim" and "us" refer to more than two is WITHOUT question. In English, you only have two forms, singular and plural. In Hebrew, you have three forms: singular, dual, and plural. Dual is for two ONLY. In Hebrew, the dual form is used for things that come in pairs like eyes, ears, and hands. The word "Elohim" and the pronoun "us" are plural forms - definitely more than two - and must be referring to three or more (Father, Son, Holy Spirit).\n\nIn Isaiah 48:16 and 61:1, the Son is speaking while making reference to the Father and the Holy Spirit. Compare Isaiah 61:1 to Luke 4:14-19 to see that it is the Son speaking.  Matthew 3:16-17 describes the event of Jesus' baptism. Seen in this is God the Holy Spirit descending on God the Son while God the Father proclaims His pleasure in the Son.  Matthew 28:19 and 2 Corinthians 13:14 are examples of 3 distinct persons in the Trinity.\n\n3) The members of the Trinity are distinguished one from another in various passages: In the Old Testament, "LORD" is distinguished from "Lord" (Genesis 19:24; Hosea 1:4). The "LORD" has a "Son" (Psalm 2:7, 12; Proverbs 30:2-4). Spirit is distinguished from the "LORD" (Numbers 27:18) and from "God" (Psalm 51:10-12). God the Son is distinguished from God the Father (Psalm 45:6-7; Hebrews 1:8-9). In the New Testament, John 14:16-17 is where Jesus speaks to the Father about sending a Helper, the Holy Spirit. This shows that Jesus did not consider Himself to be the Father or the Holy Spirit. Consider also all of the other times in the Gospels where Jesus speaks to the Father. Was He speaking to Himself? No. He spoke to another person in the Trinity - the Father.\n\n4) Each member of the Trinity is God: The Father is God: John 6:27; Romans 1:7; 1 Peter 1:2. The Son is God: John 1:1, 14; Romans 9:5; Colossians 2:9; Hebrews 1:8; 1 John 5:20. The Holy Spirit is God: Acts 5:3-4; 1 Corinthians 3:16 (The One who indwells is the Holy Spirit - Romans 8:9; John 14:16-17; Acts 2:1-4).\n\n5) The subordination within the Trinity: Scripture shows that the Holy Spirit is subordinate to the Father and the Son, and the Son is subordinate to the Father. This is an internal relationship, and does not deny the deity of any person of the Trinity. This is simply an area which our finite minds cannot understand concerning the infinite God. Concerning the Son see: Luke 22:42; John 5:36; John 20:21; 1 John 4:14. Concerning the Holy Spirit see: John 14:16; 14:26; 15:26; 16:7 and especially John 16:13-14.\n\n6) The tasks of the individual members of the Trinity: The Father is the ultimate source or cause of: 1) the universe (1 Corinthians 8:6; Revelation 4:11); 2) divine revelation (Revelation 1:1); 3) salvation (John 3:16-17); and 4) Jesus' human works (John 5:17; 14:10). The Father INITIATES all of these things.\n\nThe Son is the agent through whom the Father does the following works: 1) the creation and maintenance of the universe (1 Corinthians 8:6; John 1:3; Colossians 1:16-17); 2) divine revelation (John 1:1; Matthew 11:27; John 16:12-15; Revelation 1:1); and 3) salvation (2 Corinthians 5:19; Matthew 1:21; John 4:42). The Father does all these things through the Son, who functions as His agent.\n\nThe Holy Spirit is the means by whom the Father does the following works: 1) creation and maintenance of the universe (Genesis 1:2; Job 26:13; Psalm 104:30); 2) divine revelation (John 16:12-15; Ephesians 3:5; 2


I live in Scotland and there is about a foot of snow, I will be riding too, horses that is!


or is it an extrinsic function i can add to a java created software?

Uh, no software will make a standard computer without a special radio reception card of some type sensitive to "radio waves".  If you are referring to the Wi-Fi specification, Blue tooth or some other specification, there 'could' be a group of API calls or a Java collection that could allow the specification to work.  Otherwise you are stuck with assembly language or C programs written to take control of a specialized piece of hardware.  All in all, this isn't a real good answer, simply because the question doesn't give enough detail of what you are using and wanting to achieve.  Re state it with more detail and maybe someone can give you a better answer.


He just had a heart attack and he's only 16 I never thought that would happen to a guy like him but it did and I wasnt even there!(I Love him) So I was so worried sick when I found out after that I wasn't able to talk to him cause his older niece is there and in High school theres more bullies than where i am from which is grade school. Now I want know what I should do next time I see him and if he ever gets another minor attack or maybe a major.

the best thing is to be cool and not try and stress him out by being so worried in front of him. make sure he knows that your there for him. maybe he needs a healthier diet or more exercise. If this is the case maybe you could try helping him out with that, by eating healthy with him, an goin cycling wit him, stuff like that. if its hereditary, then best you can do is be supportive.


i just started having sex and haven't been able to have orgasm by penetration

top3:\n\n1) missionary (is more about contact other *nice* parts) [+ a pillow under your a.s.s. to increase G contact]\n2) 55 - or spoon / lazy (side position, good G effect) [+ also his fingers help if you need in the 1st times]\n3) on top but with the back on your partner (aka fat ppl position - very good G effect even for the fat ppl or small *things*)\n\n[+ 0ral sex always help before penetration | + lubrifiant]


Honey, I'm so sorry.  It all depends on if they work things out between them, but the truth is they may not even know at this time.  Please don't think it's your fault.  Adults have a lot of issues to deal with.  I'm sure your Dad loves you and misses you very much.  Include them in your prayers. I will too.


The Question is really a simple one. I believe that women are alot smarter than Men because,What are the percentages of Men behind Bars vs. Women behind bars?


Tell me about yourself or similar situations.\nAny kind of experience related with it.

I am not latino, but I know quite a few people in the hispanic community and they are discriminated against.  It would be nice if everyone would wake up one morning and view each person they see as a human being with feelings, instead of seeing the color of their skin and basing their negative opinions on that.


I am a Japanese. My body do "ojigi" , bowing from the waist, automatically when I meet people. Ojigi is the Japanese way of greeting or apologizing. How American people feel about ojigi?  Should I stop doing ojigi in the United States?

I think it is a lovely tradition, and I instinctively bow in return. I have always been fascinated and admired many Asian forms of etiquette, manners and customs, and think it would be wonderful if there were more such manners that were practiced and adhered to by everyone in the U.S.; by all means, please continue the most pleasant ojigi--it truly is elegant and and gives such an air of grace to the atmosphere.


i have NEVER EVER herd of this "sport" before in my life!!

Snooker is a billards sport that is played on a large (12' × 6') baize-covered table with pockets in each of the four corners and in the middle of each of the long cushions. It is played using a cue, one white ball (the cue ball), 15 red balls and 6 colours: a yellow (worth 2 points), green (3 points), brown (4 points), blue (5 points), pink (6 points) and black ball (7 points). A player wins a frame of snooker by scoring the most points, through using the cue ball to pot all the red and coloured balls. A match consists of an agreed number of frames. Snooker is particularly popular in English-speaking countries (Britain, Ireland, Canada, Australia and South Africa), and there has recently been a surge of interest in East Asia, with players from Hong Kong, China and Thailand entering the rankings. It's also very popular in Pakistan and India.\n\nThere is a picture at the link.


I'm looking for a "quick and dirty" way of cleaning off debris off of a carpet.  In other words, a sweeper that really works.

I am amazed that you don´t consider the vacuum a QUICK clean.  If you were living in the 19th century or before you would be beating the rugs by hand, and ingesting all the dust-particles.\n\nJust get out the vac, take 10min (at most), or go buy the 80s Dustbuster or Red Devil mini vac and suck it up.


why and who is(are) your favorite band(s)???

I agree.  I love nearly all era's of music, but the stuff from the 60's, 70's, and 80's is better by far than most of the music today.\nI personally like Led Zeppelin, they had a great guitarist, and a great drummer, and could play rock, blues, and a lot of other styles of music as well.  For example D'yer'maker (hope I spelled that correctly) almost sounds a bit like calypso, "When the Levee Breaks" is a classic blues song, "Stairway To Heaven" is probably one of the greatest rock songs ever.  Not only could they play a variety of music styles their lyrics were intelligent and intriguing.\nAnother of my all time favorites was and is Bob Dylan, the man is a lyrical genius, and he has inspired more musicians than any other singer/songwriter.\nTodays music just doesn't compare.  They simply regurgitate their songs and their goal is to make money.  Back in the 60's - 80's people were actually writing songs that meant something, and they were trying to say something.  Today's artists might tell you that is what they are attempting to do, but IMO they have failed misserably.  They simply parrot what the mainstream media and entertainment industries spew out and say that they are trying to make a difference.\nThere are only two "modern" bands that I like, one of them broke up (Rage Against The Machine), the other is U2

In the last half a century, the world has seen many predictions on oil production peaking out turning out to be false. Every time economies have responded with new fields being explored. The current estimates of recoverable reserves have been increased with each exploration. I want to know whether it is going to last another 25-35 years, so that world can smooth out from an oil dependent economy into a non oil dependent economy.

Some people claim that oil production peaked within the last year. Even if the supply of oil lasts as many years as you hope, can we count on our leaders to take the necessary steps to cut our dependency on oil before the wells really run dry?


ok me n this guy really like each other but both r parents aren't allowing us to date(@ all not jus each other) and so we are both agreeing to wait for each other. but my problem right now is that this other nice guy asked me to go to his school's Prom, and i want to go to it and he is a nice guy. \nbut what should i do? i don't want to hurt the other guy's feelings, cuz if i'm honest w/ myself i wouldn't want HIM to do that to me! my dad says that it's awhile til i'll marry n such and that i should go and enjoy myself...so i want to go, (and if i do i will tell the 1st guy cuz i'm not gonna try to hide it) but i don't want to hurt the 1st guy! please share your thoughts and advice!\n\nps anybody know where i can get inexpensive prom dresses? \n\nAdditional Details\nthey will allow it bcuz it's w/ a group of ppl and not jus one on one. also bcuz the 1st guy doesn't go to that school, that's why he didn't ask me to go w/ him in the 1st place. wat can i say to 1st guy so i dont hurt him?

tough question!\n\nokay, let's get creative, any "normal" answer is going to hurt the first guy's feelings...\n\nthe way that seems like it would have the best results is to be totally honest with both guys and your parents, and try to keep EVERYONE happy.\n\nokay, been there, done that with having the parents who wouldn't let me date.  and only go to the prom in a group.\n\njust by the way you asked the question shows a lot of integrity, your parents should be happy, and the boy you like and the boy who would be "just a friend" should all think you're pretty cool...\n\nbefore i thought of suggesting what i'll write in the next paragraph i read your other posts to see if there's anything in there which would get you in trouble with your parents... if i was your parents, i would be proud of your level of self-control and willingness to say "no" and stick up for yourself...\n\nmy wacky solution... just print out this thread and show it to your parents and both boys... tell the 2nd boy that his prom is as "just friends", the first boy should be reassured that you care as much as you do for his feelings.  or... if you're old enough to invite the first boy to your prom, make a deal with your parents that you'll be home early, and go with him.  or if his (#1's) prom is after yours, go with him to his and be back early, and keep your existing arrangements.\n\nmom and dad... it's kind of a privacy thing, she probably wouldn't want you to read her other posts, but you have a good daughter, she obviously cares what you think, and she's trustworthy, and knows how to stay out of trouble : )\n\nor just don't go to the prom.  : (


Is the Western world is about to embark on a vastly expanded stage of \nreligious warfare that may go well beyond the lethality of the religious feuding \nthat plagued Europe throughout most of its history? There are, after all, some \n1.2 billion Muslims worldwide, and for every Muslim killed in this dust-up, \ncountless terrorists will be born. Moreover, two out of three people worldwide \nlive on less than a dollar a day, and the well of human misery is very deep. \nIs the present war on terrorism widening into a war of the Haves versus the \nHave-Nots?

You know... you ask some of the best questions...\nI do not believe it will be a war between the haves and the have-nots, at least not in the context of your question.  The current war on terror is a war of ideaologies, and the fundamentalist Muslims who the western world is fighting against are not necessarily the have-nots.  OBL is a multi-millionaire, and many of the terrorist organizations (Al Quada, Hezbollah, Islamic Jihad, Hamaas, etc...) are also very well funded through the sales of middle eastern oil.  In a sense the west is paying the wages of their enemies through their buying of middle eastern oil.  Make no mistake, the common man doing the fighting is middle to lower class.  That is true for both sides of the conflict.  But the governments and entities waging the war(s) are well off.\nAs stated, the war on terror (or the war against the capitalist west depending upon whose side your viewing from) is a war of ideaologies, just as the cold war was and as long as both sides can continue to foster said ideaologies the war will continue to rage on.

Basically, I am using Mandriva as a partitoned Linux distro. This router works fine in Win XP, but I dont know where to find the drivers to install it for Linux... I am kind of new to Linux, so thorough instructions to setting up the router in Linux would be greatly appreciated.\n\nI have version 5 of the router, which doesnt support third party firmware. \n\nAny tips on optimizing the router (less disconnects etc.) would be greatly appreciated!

routers are just directing connections to and from computers, so it doesn't matter what kind of system you're using, just make sure the computer is setup and functioning correctly.


If there are any Christian men out there who have been delivered from being perpetrators of domestic violence against their wife/children, what means helped you overcome (scriptures, books, counseling, accountability, etc...)?

I am a teacher who is contemplating a seven day trip to Washington, DC etc. in the spring of 2007 for my seventh graders. There might be 2-3 buses. Several companies have contacted me with great offers and personal incentives (stipends. travel benefits, and bonuses) to compensate for the amount of time to set up this trip. Is there anyone who has some good referrals, advice, or suggestions?\n\nBR

I have a friend who is protestant and believes that Roman Catholics are not christian. I have tried to tell her numerous times that we are Christian but she just does not seem to get it. How can I  tell her that we are christian so she will understand it?

To be considered a "Christian", there are certain fundamental beliefs to which we need to adhere.  Every Christian believes in the Blessed Trinity (One God in Three Divine Persons); that Jesus Christ is true God and true Man (that He is God in the flesh); and that salvation is obtained through the Mystery of Christ's Death on the Cross.  \n\nBut there are many other beliefs that are also very important to Christianity.  Not all of them are in the Bible explicitly.  Our Lord Jesus Christ did not found a book but a Church.  We, as Catholics, believe that the Catholic Church was the Church which He founded and to which He gave His very own authority (for example, the authority to forgive sins).  Such things, God alone can do, but if He wants to share His authority with the Church which He founded, then who are we to go against Him?  This is why Catholics love the Church and listen to the Church as if they were listening to Christ Himself.  He speaks through His Church.\n\nBut this is something that non-Catholics have a hard time understanding.  The best you can do, I think, is to show them that Jesus wanted to continue His Mission here on earth (the salvation of souls), and that that is why He founded His Church.  That is why we Catholics love the Church as we love Christ Himself.  \n\nI hope this helps, and may God bless you!

It may be a good idea if you are having a hard time making payments on high-interest debt.  However if you are making the payments OK, you may actually be hurting yourself.\n\nIf one or two of your debts will be paid in 6 months to a year, you will have that extra payment available to do what you want very soon.  If you refinance, for 5 years, you might have a lower combined payment but you will be stuck with it for 5 years where you might have had a lower total payment if you had left things alone for just a few months and paid off a couple of your debts.\n\nIf you have a home and can get a home equity loan, you can take the interest off on your taxes but it also costs money to get that loan so it may be a wash.\n\nJust some things to consider.\n\nOne more thing, if you have a bank you do business with regularly, I would use that one to refinance.  You can also check www.bankrate.com.  That website can give you information about what banks are reputable and operate in your area.


are there certain things I should know? Ingredients that I need to stay away from?

A friend of mine was diagnosed about 3 years ago. The best thing she did was saw a nutritionist. There are a lot of things listed on food labels that one may not recognize as containing gluten. Also check out a local support group. They can point you towards restaurants in the area with gluten-free menus...Outback chains have a great gluten-free menu.

I smoke hash/brown sugar which is first burnt a little bit and once it is soft it is mixbed with tobacco and then filled back in the cigarette an then smoked. I dont do it very frequently but I only do it before sex with my long term committed partner.  We both smoke before sex and then have crazy sex, the orgasms are mind blowing. After that we eat like anything.  I just want to know if this is okay or if there are any side effect like brain damage or any adverse health problems.  I dont feel that I am addicted to it as sometimes we dont smoke even for a month without any urge to smoke again.  But sex is really mind blowing after smoke.  Anyone having some knowledge, please do share with me. Thanks!

where have you been?  if you smoke anything there are adverse effects...long term effects...damage to your brain cells.... add other "ingredients" and one can only imagine the possibilities...  \ni do, however, find it sad that you need to do hash to have mind-blowing sex...bummer for you


My boy friend and i have been together for almost a year. We broke up for about 2 months but were still talk to each other, as in chatting not intimate talking. he didnt want to breakit off but i was going to be a freshman in college and i didnt know what i was going to do when i got to college. he fought for me for 2 months and theni finally took him back\ni am madly in love with him and until recently i thought he was madly in love with me we talked getting promise rings,about one of us transfereing to the sam school and just tlked about being together. it was all so wonderful. but now he is on his spring break and i already had mine. he was looking forward to going home and hanging out with his best friend and now he doesntcall me and his tone is so different when we talk. i always call him and i am always the one to say " i love you". i told him i was going to come home to see him over the weekend but he said he wanted to chill with his mom. Am i being paranoid or is somthing wrong

I have a design project that I cannot conquer. I need to design a card datbase to for the Magic: The Gathering card game. You do not have to be familiar with the game. \n\nEach card has a unique name and possibly should be the primary means of looking up a record.\n\nEach card has the following properties:\ncard name\ncard type\nset\nmana cost\ncard text\noracle text\nprice\n\nThe problem I am having is with the set field. Set refers to the number of time and names that the card was printed in. For instance, card APPLE could be printed in set Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, Ro but card ORANGE was only printed in Alpha and card NUTS were printed in Alpha,Omega. The set field is variable and could contain any number of sets. There are a finite number of sets however.\n\nI can't figure out how to set up the database to contain these elements. Please help me.\n\nQuestion: How should these databse be formatted?\n\nPlease give me the answer in mysql format if possible. Thank you so much.

A relational way of doing this is to create a Cards table with everything BUT set.  Then create a second table named something like Cards_Sets.  This can contain the following fields.\n\ncard name\nset\n\nSo your APPLE would contain one record in the Cards table and 5 records in the Cards_Sets table.   The ORANGE would contain 1 record in both tables and NUTS would contain 1 Cards record and 2 Cards_Sets records.   This is a one to many relationship.\n\nA simple select to display connected data from both tables would be:\n\nSelect * from Cards c, Cards_Sets cs\nwhere c.CardName = cs.CardName

It seems to me that i am always being inflicted by other people's stupidity

Our current form of Democracy is sometimes referred to as "tyranny of the masses".  In other words, the majority will constantly create and vote in laws which reduce freedoms of the minority.  And, since we all belong to some kind of minority, we will eventually create enough laws so that every-ones' freedoms are gone.  Every law passed restricts your freedom in some way and leads to harsher laws in the future.  So, in a way, you are right.  Think about that the next time you vote on a law banning something.  Just because it doesn't effect you at the time, you are giving up rights of others and your turn will come.  I also like what this Douglas guy below me has to say.  I am for less government, if it takes more political parties to do that, fine.


I was going out with a guy last summer, we broke up. However he still contacted me every week via texts. Three weeks ago I told him I still had feelings for him etc. He asked if I wanted to meet up soon etc. I said ok. He replied "Talk Soon" etc and I havent heard from him since. Its not like he was using me as such as we never had sex and we havent even seen each other since last summer... He always initiated texts not me. I have re-gained some sort of dignity out of this fiasco for myself by not contacting him since havent I? i.e not turning into a hounding pest!!

Never confuse your own self-worth with the amount of attention you receive from any guy.\n\nHe's either playing a game with you or, in the words or Berger on Sex and the City, "He's just not that into you."  (If you've watched this show, you'll remember that Miranda finds this very freeing!  Accepting the fact and moving on is the best gift you can give yourself.)\n\nMy advice, take care of yourself.  Go get a mani and pedi.  Read a book, take up a new form of exercise or a craft.  Go out on dates with other guys--or not!  Prepare yourself for another relationship by making yourself happy!


I'm interviewing for a faculty position in chemistry, and would appreciate some advice on preparation... Cheers!

First answer is a good reference.\n\nAlso do consider the following:\n\nFirst of all is your appearance, you must be looking sobar, thorough and study oriented.\n\nYour conversation must be gentle and without pause. Speaking to fast is not teacher like.\n\nYou must have a thorough knowledge about hand books, and teachers' guide books for the texts your are going to take up as a teacher.\n\nYour knowledge of the subject must be good but what is more important is your way of elaboration of the topics you know. \nIt does not much affect if you do not answer few questions of your subject. \n\nImportant is that what you know is very clear in your mind and you can well explain to those who do not know.\n\nThe interviewing people must be having much more knowledge than you but you are supposed to talk in a way as you are giving a lecture on a new topic to your students.\n\nIf you do not know any thing state openly.\n\nGood luck to you.

My guess: it wasn't political.  There are so many awards, and so much coverage especially in Los Angeles, that people got tired of Brokeback Mountain winning everything, and tired of people saying Brokeback Mountain was a shoe-in, so they said "I'll vote for something else Iliked just to show support."  And then it won.  Backlash against Brokeback Mountain's status as front-runner.

How do they add up, discounting quanta (Just for my entertainment, quanta are a theory that is relatively young)

There are 3 types of electrons and three types of neutrinos, so not sure which you want, I suppose the most stable form. Since buddy already gave you proton, electron and neutron, I'll just add to that.\n\nProton mass: 0.938 GeV/(c^2)\nNeutron mass: 0.940 GeV/(c^2)\nElectron mass: 0.000511 GeV/(c^2)\nNeutrino mass: 1 x 10^(-8) GeV/(c^2)\nPhoton mass: 0 GeV/(c^2)\nTotal mass: 1.879 GeV/(c^2)\n\nA GeV/(c^2) is an energy unit defined as the amount of potential gained when an electron moves through a potential of one billion volts, it is given per speed of light squared which you may recognize from the energy/mass relation E = m(c^2). \n\n*Edit*\nI left a crucial part out of the calculation. Here it is again proper:\n1 GeV = 10^9 eV\n1 ev = 1.602176 x 10^-19 kg*m^2/s^2\nc = 299792458 m/s\nYou can use E = mc^2 to solve for m in kg OR to get mass in kg you can also multiply the amount in GeV by 1.783 x 10^-27. Sorry for the mistake earlier. Now if you test my answers with ThePhysicists' answers they will be the same.


Please answer me in detail about the forces that often reselted in crash of air craft when it hit the water during an emergency landing at sea or other water source ? I will also thanks full if some one tel me about relative density of sea water and air.

More or less the same kind of damage as if it hits land.\n\nEver done a belly-flop in the pool?  Imagine doing that at 150 mph.  The water is more or less solid at that speed.

No logical or historical evidences at all u will find against his prophecy.. because he is a true prophet...\n\nActually, i wanna answer the question without the word "not".. also by logic...\n\nMuhammad was an illiterate man (He couldn't read or write).. Allah sent Gabriel the angel to him to recite the Qur'an for him.. He saved the Qur'an in his mind.. he recited it for people.. people saved it in thier minds.. then they wrote it.. later, actually after 1400 years or more.. people discovers some facts in it.. some equations.. and some scientific facts...\n\nThe facts and the scientific facts are somehow hard to understand.. but the word repetitions in it are very strange and splendid.. visit this page please to read some:\nhttp://www.miraclesofthequran.com/mathematical_01.html\n\nafter u read it the logic says immediately how can a man compose such a book only in his mind (consider it a normal book) although he is illiterate....\n\nfor the up to date discovered miracles in Qur'an visit this site:\nhttp://www.miraclesofthequran.com


ok im almost 13 and hve never mad eout with anyone!! how embaresing! and my bf has!! i dont know what to do!!! how does it start should he kiss me first? im so nervous and worse we were at the movies last nite and nothing happened!! nothing!! and to make things worse, hes a shy guy!!!!!!!!!!!!! help!!!

hahaha, theres nothing to be embarrased about, ok, first of all, when you make out, it doesn't just go like BOOM TOUNGS IN!!! no way, first you should like lead into it by rubbing noses and like play with his hair (in my case her), u kno, flirt a lil, but the best place to do it is at the movies, do it during the middle of the movie (because ur just gonna wanna keep going untill the movie is over), but if u want privaacy, go see and OLD movie, a kinda sucky one, like right now the best old movie is DATE MOVIE, its all comedy and it gets broing, adn sit all the way at the top, and to the sides, that way, no one is looing at you from behind and sonce your all the way to the sides, its like your own little room, but its all dark, which is a good thing,lol. but anyways, to make out, you simply push your lips against his, then move them up and down,its really simple, and you will know what to do when you get there,use a lil tounge too. haha, im 13 and i just made out for the first time in my life like a month ago and ever since, it feels so good doing it over and  over again.......\n\nwell, i hope this was helpful....\n\n=]


importance of a salesman over being an office worker

i have been diagniosed to be having a distended gall bladder with no stones.My family doctor has prescribed a course of medicine while the second opinion is that immediate surgery can only cure the occassional pain i have , specially after rich and heavy meals. So what now?

Take this from someone who's been there.  Get that gallbladder taken OUT.  Now!!!  Your pain will not go away.  The attacks will start to happen more frequently and last longer.  Get it taken out ASAP, they will probably be able to do this laparascopically.  Piece of cake.

I'm just so restless all the time that sometimes I find myself sitting up and talking to myself! I can't make myself stop!

Try gradually turning off more lights as the evening progresses. The brain releases a hormone called Melatonin, but it is only released as light decreases & darkness increases. Light will actually turn the melatonin production off. You can also try drinking some herbal tea. If you don't mind taking herbal supplements, kava kava, chamomile or  valerian (be aware this one has a FOUL odor!) are all somewhat effective. Also, you can try taking a calcium/magnesium supplement with your dinner. This will help relax you as the evening wears on.


So just how long did it take you to gather 40,000 some odd points in Yahoo Answers and did you have a strategy? Please share...

First of all, to get the best answers, you should ask this question in the Yahoo! Answers subcategory of Yahoo! Products.\n\nI've been on the site for just over two months. Other top users have been here for a shorter or longer period of time. Most of the time spent on the site is devoted to answering questions well. If there's a subject you know well, stick to it for a while. See if there are any old questions about that subject that you can answer.\n\nOf course, spending excessive amount of time on Yahoo! Answers could negatively affect your personal life, so you may want to consider your priorities before you attempt to reach 40,000 points yourself.

This seems especially true of men.  (No, not all men, just those I have met, lol).  Comments?

Pride. It was the very first thing that made that angel that became Satan not want to obey God. He thought too highly of himself and still to this day has not acknowledged how wrong he is (in believing that God does not have the right to decide what is wrong or right for mankind).\nIf pride left unchecked can make a perfect angel like Satan do what he did, imagine the affect it has on imperfect, sinful humans today.\n\nHumility is something sorely lacking in society today; it is often mistaken for a weakness. But without humilty, we make it very hard for ourselves to to follow the two greatest commandments from Jesus found at Matthew 22:37-39.


I need this answered today and I'll be looking for the answer online so i'll check every feww seconds.

I would like to have a clear number value to scale a model. Other sub-atomic particle "size" measurments welcome.

I am very sorry to tell you this, but this question cannot be answered. The reason for this has to do with the fact that very, very small things (like protons) act in a very different way than larger-scale objects. For a full explanation, you'd need to delve in quantum theory, but for now, here is the best answer I can give you:\n\nA proton consists of three quarks, who are held together with the strong nuclear force. Looking at the distance dependency of this force, a non-accelerated proton would have a diameter of about 10^-15 m in reference to its inertial frame. The weird thing is, the more accurately its velocity is determined (for example, by applying a certain electromagnetic field to it) the more "diffuse" and wave-like the proton becomes, thus in a sense enlarging it! For more on this, look into the Heisenberg uncertainty principle.\n\nFor similar reasons, it makes no sense to talk about the "shape" of a photon.

ClickNGoWeb is a new business based here in NC.  My student teacher's father got in on the ground floor;  she signed up shortly thereafter.  They know the owner of the company personally and can vouch for his intellect, character and reliability. They're already making money for doing nothing!  \n\nThe distributors have the option to sell lank template bwebsites or to make and sell websites or they can simply sign up early enough to reap the benefits of others signing up later.  I just signed up and I'm already #1365 to sign up.  My intern has already made her $189.95 back plus more, so I figure this to be a failsafe venture. You only need to get 2 people to sign up under you, then they get 2 they each of them get 2 more and so on.  The money is supposed to roll in slowly but steadily. I am but a humble schoolteacher with a small child and a husband who loves to golf.  I just want to live comfortably; I don't care about getting rich. \n\nFeel free to email me for more information.

basically, i've been having problems with my undereye areas. they're becoming darker and baggier. is there any way to treat (inexpensively) the darkness/bagginess that happens because of lack of sleep? thanks in advance!

Try to take at least six hours of sleep in a day and in addition before going to bed massage your both eyes at the same time for 10-15 minutes with a mild cold slices of cucumber. This will relax your eyes and at the same time will initiate the process to cure the bagginess and darkness of your undereye areas. You will see the results in one week.


I purchased a Dual Channel Ram Kit to save money and want to know if these kind of kits are just identical sticks shipped together. I'm building a computer with a motherboard that has only 3 slot/single channel. any info/links you can provide would be helpful.

Yes, as it has been stated before, Dual Channel is a motherboard technology.  In a nutshell it means that the memory is accessed in parallel.  So if you have two DIMMs on a dual channel motherboard, they are accessed both at the same time, speeding up memory access.  But the RAM can be used in a non Dual Channel MoBo, it just isn't accessed in parallel and is thus slower.


I really just have no idea what to go into now that teaching is off for another year or so, and I don't want to keep working here at my University (I hate this town). So what should I do? Any suggestions? \n\nI'd really like to jump into a non-profit, but I wasn't sure where to start with that. I have a good reputation with some Texas non-profits, but if I moved down there and worked for one of them, I'd be far too close to my parents.

Non profit work is rewarding yet you will never make the cas your fellow grads do.\n\nBest ways into a non-profit.\n1) Volunteer\nMost non-profits like volunteers and often hire from that pool. I have worked for MANY non-profits and in 90% of new hires, we accepted an applicant who first volunteered.\n\n2) www.opportunityknocks.org  This is a non-profit clearing house of sorts. It will give you an idea of what is out there.\n\n3) Selected targeting of non-profits.  As a psych major you have a few options for career pathways.\n- human resources. You have people skills and could work in an HR department with that background.\n- customer service. Again, people skills. Working as a CSR lays a good foundation for all sorts of careers. If you can handle irate customers and deal with that BS then you have a proven record at handling problems\n- office/clerical Of course, any new grad can do this, Its boring, mundane and all of that, but it fills a resume and has a paycheck while you look elsewhere\n- more school. Graduate, realize you have no idea what to do and run and hide behind more degrees. i did and it worked for 10 years or so....\n- branch out in a totally new area.  The funny thing is that your college major is rarely what people do with thier lives. As a psych major, you will probably not end up in the psych field. I beleive you ultimately want to teach. In the interim, capitalize on a hobby. Do you like art? Any good with desktop publishing? See if any local non-profits need newsletters made up. Like nature? See about being an informal educator at a nature center, zoo or aquarium. Like books? Find a local book store that needs help.\n\nThat first post graduation job is hardest but it certainly does not define you. It builds your resume, provides a check and makes you legit. Do a good job, get those references and keep working towards your ultimate goals.\n\nIf you are willing to relocate, then consider work all over the country. As a soon to be Ex-Los Angeles resident, I can say AVOID it. Its $$$ . Since you are in good with Texas non profits, ask the for a reference and suggestions somewhere else. I am sure thye know others, as it tends to be a close knit community. Someone in Texas may have worked in say New York and knows someone there hiring.  Network. That really does work, unlike monster.com\n\nEDIT\nOf course I just read yor blog and found you got an offer off Monster. Maybe it was just me then.


Christians are known to have 4 bibles John and Methew and others, why do you believe that these bibles is the word of God, while they were written by the students of Jesus? and where is the jesus bible that he was preaching people from it? does any one have a copy from it???????? if it does exist why Jesus student had to write thier own bibles???? why didn't they just use The Jesus bible instead of writing thier owns.

I've never heard of the The Jesus bible before, where did you hear about it?

y=sin4x,\ny=2sin1/4x,\ny=-2sin3.14x, \ny=-sin4/3x\nif it is possible for someone to explain how to solve for each. thank you

Answering...\n\nBasic Equation:\n\nSine:.. y = a sin bx\nCosine: y = a cos bx\nwhere:\namplitude = absolute value of a (always positive)\nPeriod = 360 degrees/absolute value of b or 2pi/abs b\n\nEX: y = sin 4x\namplitude = abs a = 1\nPeriod = 360 deg./abs. b = 360/4 = 90 deg.\n\nEXPLANATION:\n\nSine Function\n1. The graph looks like a regular sea wave.\n2. For positive function, along the y-axis, the graph starts at the origin and then it goes up like a wave until it reaches the peak (called crest).\n3. Then it goes down until it reaches its lowest part (called trough).\n4. Then the cycle is repeated.\n5. For a negative sine function, from the origin, the graph goes down to its trough and then up again.\n\nCosine Function:\n1. The graph also looks like a regular sea wave.\n2. For a positive function, the graph (along the y-axis) starts at the its crest.\n3. Then it goes down until it reaches its trough.\n4. Then it goes up again until it reaches its crest again.\n5. The cycle is repeated.\n6. If the function is negative, along the y-axis, the graph starts at its trough first. Then it goes up.


He is having this problem since last 4 months, I tried all ointments, also antibiotics, to treat this eczema, it will go for some days and again return with more power. He keeps crying sometimes of pain, Doctor says, it will go on its own, but when, i have lost patience now, Please help if u have a suggestion for this severe eczema.

I know how you feel. My daughter has had eczema since she was born and she is now 10 years old. I have taken her to 8 different doctors and she has had allergy testing done also. She now has to take 3 shots per week because her allergies are so bad. Allergies do have alot to do with it but I recently took her to a childrens dermatologists at childrens hospital and she has recommended that we : 1. make her showers last for no longer thaan 5 min. 2. within 3 minutes of her getting out of the shower we put on fluocinolone acetonide "you have to have a rx for that" then put a thick layer of vasiline on top of that. 3. If the ecxems is really bad put her in wet wraps 2 times a day for about 2 or 3 days " all you need to do is get some childrens stockings, the thick ones, and wet them with warm water and squeeze them out , put them on the places that are bad, like her legs or arms, and then take a blanket out of the dryer and wrap her in it for about an hour. This may be hard for you since your child is only a  year old. 4. Put one capful of clorox in her bathwater 2 times per week. Make sure you don't leave him in there no longer than 5 minutes. All bath water and showers should just be warm not hot, hot water dries the skin out. I know this sounds like a lot but it has helped her. She still has problems but they are not as bad as they were. If you want to talk my yahoo messenger is michelle062605. Good luck and I hope that things get better for you.

I read on here one day this guy said you could eat all the bake  pot toes plain you wanted and not gain weight? How can this be true? It doesent make sense to me !!!!! Anyone else believe it? If so why?

Baked potatoes can be good for you. They are vegetables. It's all about what toppings you choose to put on them.


not to get fat, how to be on diet, what do we have to eat to not gain weight? i am 105 so i have to lose weight? am i over weight or what? i feel fat though? also i get stretch marks, how do i take it out and not have stretch mark anymore?

well, you weigh 105, so you are certinly not fat. just eat, healthy, and excersize. and about the stratch marks, try "palmers cocoa butter for stretch marks". it really works.

You're welcome - I was just needling you a little.\n\n: )


What do you do when your boyfriend died because of you? When you were the one talking to him on the phone while he was driving and you knew he was driving. But you didnt care becuase you wanted to talk to him. Then find out he died three days later and you didn't even get to say goodbye. And everyone says it wasnt your fault but it was?

Wow, thats heavy!  If you want the truth yes you are partially at fault.  Although, everywhere you go you see people talking on the phone while driving.  I sure that your boyfriend wanted to talk to you as much as you wanted to talk to him and he was the one at risk.  Your boyfriend could have pulled off of the road to talk or used a hands free method, but I guess he didn't.  This elevated his danger level.  In the end it was his choice to risk driving and talking on the phone.  Your only fault was being the object of his desire.  I am sure he would not blame you and that he would not want you to blame yourself.


Justice as the value and utilitarianism(an act is right if it produces the greatest good for the greatest number) for the criterion.

I think that if children are in there teens and they have committed a capitol crime (i.e murder and NOT in self defense) then they should be tried has an adult. Teens should know that murder or other capital crimes is wrong.


Majority of Filipinos have Spanish last names & some of the words in their language are Spanish, yet their country is located in Asia.  All I know color wise is that they are also brown, but are they Asians or Hispanics or Latin?

Filipinos are still considered Asians as Phillipines is in South East Asia. If they sounds Spanish that's because they were colony of Spain. Therefore they are so much influenced by Spanish culture.


Hi,\ni am 30 years old male. I have high bp 120/94 for the first time. My physician in appollo told me to again check i up after 3 days. I used to have chest pain for past 1 year. I did ECG 6 times, ECHO , TMT once in past 1 year all negative. Chest x ray normal. \nPlease help me.\nYours\nTaton Banerjee

*gasp* thanks for your details.  you are the first one I encountered to give his case with good details.\ndon't worry mister. 120/94 AIN'T that alarming. \nquestion: have you eaten any foods high in (bad) cholesterol?? fatty pork chops?? seafoods?? chicken skin?? JUST BEFORE THE PHYSICAL EXAMINATION??\n\nthat is all I can say viewing that your "latest check-up" is PAST 1 YEAR.  I think you should do it again, this time.\n\nTIP: GO SEE DOC.  AVOID FATTY FOODS BEFORE EXAMINATION. THAT BE IT. \n\nJOMAR S.T. NDGM '96\nEDIT: i saw your addition of details today.  you are not suffering from hypertension. you are just within the normal limits, however, that chest should be checked for further data.  might be just stress or rib cage "deflation/inflation" after hours of steadiness.

I've heard that Brian Lumley's series Necroscope is going to be filmed. Does anyone know something more? Any Brian Lumley's fans here?

I met Brian Lumley at a Cthulhu convention some years ago.  A very nice man--a gentleman.  I love the Necroscope books.\nBut I don't think they'd make good movies. They're too fat.  Too much would have to be cut.\nI'd love to see a Necroscope SERIES on HBO.  Each season could be one book, or even one section of one book. But HBO would never spring for the special effects needed for the later books set on the other world.

Last week my crush was asking me who i was liking and he kept quizzing me on what he was like and stuff like that.

they are asking me for my credit card information? if any one know about USSFIS. here is the website. www.usafis.org \nThanks for your help

and don't start quoteing x-men or some other comic/movie (or at the very least please try not to). but like imagine a drug addict in the middle of a binge started shooting flames from his fingertips. or if a guy who was going to get shot suddenly started having the bullets bounce off of him. given these kinds of events.. how would the media react? how would normal people react? the government? religions?

Actually I imagine X-Men would be a pretty good analogy, as would Supreme Power, or Rising Stars.\n\nThey would be feared by the masses, banned/captured and experimented on by the world governments in an attempt to weaponize them.\n\nReligions would probably demonize them, however a charismatic few will have their own followers.\n\nThe media will LOVE them, and attempt to capitalize on them. Exclusive interviews with powered people, as well as "experts" will be the order of the day.  Rupert Murdoch will create a new Cable station that is nothing but 'powered news and entertainment' all the time.\n\nThe good looking, pro-establishment ones will become media darlings, and will have merchandising lines devoted to them.\n\nIf there were too many, or if they kept on coming into being, they would need to be registered, so the government could keep an eye on them.\n\nThey would look to develop methods of supressing them, and convince the public such measures are needed for 'our own protection'.\n\n...and sooner or later the revolution will come.


I want to see my desktop and be able to watch movies from my computer to my TV, my TV has no S-Video port, but my computer does, and they both have the (Red, White, Yellow) RCA slots. Can I use a 3.5mm to 3 RCA cable to do so

I am assuming that:\nYou want to use your TV as your only monitor.\nYou use Windows XP.\n\nFirst, I would like to warn you that a computer screen image on a TV is not clear and often hard to see. This is caused by the fact that non-HD TVs have considerably less screen resolution than most computer monitors. However, if you only want to watch movies, the picture quality should be the same.\n\nThe red, white, and yellow connections are called composite. If both your computer and TV have them I see no reason why you cannot use a cable to connect them (as long as the connections are going out on your computer and in on your TV). You probably should check your computer’s and/or video card’s owner’s manual to be sure that the connections on your computer are out.\n\nOnce you are sure that you have the correct connections and you have the cables you need; turn off your computer, unplug your monitor (if you have one plugged in), and plug the cables in. Then turn your computer on. I think this will accomplish what you want. \n\nIf you have any questions, feel free to contact me using the link on my Q&A page.\n\nIf this answer doesn’t help, please provide more information such as:\nDo you want to use your TV as your only monitor, have your TV and monitor display identical images, or use a type of dual view? \nWhat OS are you using?\nWhat video card do you use?\nAnd anything else that may be relevant.


I bought a live drive! 1, but it did not come with a connection manual


Ask Micheal Jackson. HA!\n\nSeriously, I think Peter Pan reminds us of the kid inside of us. Sometimes as adults we tend to be soo serious & stern. Hardly ever do we take the time to smell the roses. So, overall I think his personality is a breath of fresh air...\n\n...Unless you're like MJ. That's just plain sick.


chirstians like me dont like bad ppl u guys try to stop us from trying us to get more chirstians but u stop that by cussing at us !!IM NOT GONNA TAKE THIS ANYMORE!!

I would just like to point out to you that cussing is not against any of the 10 commandments. Swearing is.\nCussing may be distasteful and inappropriate at times, but certainly no sin against God.\nMore often than not, it's a case of people not knowing how to express themselves with other words. Although, occasionally, a good expletive is exactly what's needed to emphasize a point.


Thank you all for answering my previous question but it looks like I have run out of time. I am going into the hospital and I don't think I will be coming out. I wasted my life, please don't waste yours. Goodbye.

There is no such thing as too late. You may think that you have wasted your life, but regrets are cheap, and it is regrets that keep you from seeing the fact that you have lived your life the best you could have done, and that is all anyone can hope to do.\n\nSoften your heart, you have done your best and it is enough, no matter what you think.\n\nGood luck and God Bless. I will be praying for you.


If laundry was picked up from their door, separated, washed, dried and folded and delivered back to their door in 1-2 days. \n\nOutsourcing is used so no extra man power is needed, and still we're more reasonable than local laundromats. Laundry has to be picked up at a specific time if customer is not available to sign for it.


this one is great just seeing what else is out there

im on a glluten-free diet so heres my advise:\n\ngo into any grocery store and there are little recipie booklets for 99 cents or under...hope this helps.


i think he has forgoten that he is a bow and i am an arrow from his bow.i am from a world of tomarrow were he cannot go. if only he could understond that i am my own and he cannot give me his thoughts.

Just listen open mindedly, and remind him that you will live your own life.  You may need his emotional support, but you are bound to make your own mistakes.  Parents are always overbearing when it comes to letting their children fly, so try to understand that what he does comes from a good place, and that he loves you.  He only wants the best for you, but in life, you must know the difference between him being a parent, and him speaking from experience.  When you can learn to differentiate between the two, you will become a better person for it.


I know that at the age of 16 they (parents) can send out a warrant for your arrest if u leave home. I know at 18 You're grown, what about at the age of 17? Can u get in any kind of legal trouble?

at 17 your legally able to move out if you think you can handle it. even though police or "legal authorities" dont recommend it and like to get ignorant. You cant be sent back home. You can be tried as an adult at 17 so you can move out at 17. I moved out at 17 and the police said there is nothing that can be done. Goodluck and take care


O.K. Some people have different avatars instead of the usual yahoo stuff. How did you customize it that way?

First, \ngo to MY Q&A on the top left corner of the page, under the Yahoo! banner.\n\nSecond, when you read your info pages, there is a small option there under your profile picture that says "edit my info".\n\nFrom there, you can choose to customize your avatar. I advise facial pictures (like mine) to bring focus to your character's face and increase recognition value. :)


Assume that I began moving in a straight line from the southern tip of Italy with an initial velocity of 14.3 nautical miles per year with an acceleration of 2.7 yards per day per nanosecond, and reached Newfoundland carrying 100 locusts in addition.

Solution: According to Sunkist's law of conversion - as you reached terminal velocity and the time portal appeared - Chiquita's banana-form entropy would come into play around France. \n\nAnswer: 2


I am arguing pro- Dropping the bomb on hiroshima and nagasaki was neccesary. I don't need bullet points, I have that already. I just want a link to a complete essay (or you can write it) arguing the por side...Saying that the U.S. was justified in dropping the bomb.

There is an article at the link below that provides a lot of information surrounding the bombing.\n\nhttp://www.doug-long.com/hiroshim.htm\n\nFrom what I know, based on the outrageous outcomes of the battles in the Pacific, primarily Iwo Gima, military analysts determined that the human cost of invading mainland Japan would have been extreme. Analysts figured American losses to be between 500,000 and 750,000, and Japanese losses at 2.5 - 3.2 million. The two A-Bomb attacks only cost 200,000 Japanese losses and forced them into a surrender. Americans were weary of the war after 4 years of intense fighting and wanted it to end. The bombings brought that end; saving America from another estimated 2 years of fighting and both countries millions of lives combined.


I saw this Balloon at a Toys R Us fair, the balloon came on a roll like garbage bags you'd roll it off tie one end and the kids would run to fill it with air then they'd tie the other end. it's about 3ft long.

that sounds dangerous.  someone could suffocate.


if a 12-inch stick is called a ruler and a 36-inch stick is called a yard stick, what do you call a 24-inch ruler? thanks!

there is no such thing as a 24 in ruler. So there is no name for it.


I have a white board that has been sitting above a heater. Now after you clen it there is still color stuck on it. Any igeas on how to get it off????

There's a discussion of cleaning at the link below, with a variety of cleaning methods suggested.  But, if the board has been damaged, there may be little you can do.


New York had this thing a while back where if you killed a rat and brought it to city hall they gave you a dollar. And than they solved the rat problem cause people would like hunt them for money. So my idea is why don't we do that with fools. If you bust a cap in a fool and take his carcass to city hall you get a dollar. Pretty soon we wouldn't have any bustas left in this broke ass society.

It wouldn't work, there are too many of them and always has been.\n\n“There is always a majority of fools." Ascribed to Heraclitus, BCE c. 540 to 475.\n\n“He that teacheth a fool is like one who glueth a potsherd together.” From Ecclesiastes II, 14, BCE 180.\n\n“Who is not a fool?” Horace, from satires, II BCE 25.\n\n“The fool doth think he is wise, but the wise man knows himself to be a fool.” Shakespeare, from As You Like It.\n\n“Fools are wise until they speak.”  Randle Cotgrave, from French-English Dictionary, CE 1611.


Im researching flowering plants, and I cant find some info. Does anyone know how many offspring they produce in a reproductive cycle, the frequency of reproduction, the age of sexual maturity, length of gestation, length of period for offspring dependency, and their life span. I can have answers to any of these questions for any kind of flowering plant just say what type of plant it is! Thx for ur helP!!

You have got some things muddled up here.\n\nGestation and offspring dependency doesn't apply to flowering plants.\nSexual maturity and frequency of reproduction - there are three patterns:\n- annuals - life cycle complete within one year, parent plant dies;\n- biennials - life cycle takes two years - first year plant establishes itself, over-winters, reproduces next year and dies;\n- perennials - live for many years and make seeds every year.\nAs for the number of seeds they make, this is very variable. Some species make only a few, some make lots.\n\nLink 1. - general information.\nLink 2. - a bit more detail.\nLink 3. - a site to help with all the technical words, very useful.


I need it for my bussiness class... how to get that #???

multiply together the number of different possible combinations.  As the guy above me said, there are four times of toppings times the number of cheese choices times the weight of meat times the bun choices times anything else you can think of.


Can you tell me how to say these things in French?\nGo away!\nShut up/Be quiet!\nI surrender.\nPlease don't just type these into an online translator; I could do that myself. Only answer if you actually know French language yourself.

Go away: Dégage! Va-t'en! Casse-toi!\nShut up: Ferme-la! Ta gueule! Tais-toi!\nBe quiet: Silence\nI surrender: je renonce

Live w/ ex-husband in an alcoholic situation. Our child who doesn't like him is hoping we can leave, but I am in no financial position to raise him the way he deserves.  I am working in a temp-hire position until I go to college in the fall for Medical Coding.  I don't date, I am socially an outcast and I did all this for my son so he could have both parents to raise him.  Working on getting a vehicle, no bussing system this far North of the city.  Family cannot help; friends are few and far between.  Just feel alone in this matter and at a cross-road.  I know about all the "helping communities", but want to by-pass the curfews and "homeless" agencies.  I want the best for my son.  So I just sit here and live day-day praying for a miracle.  Ex works days and I nites.  Less confrontation that way, but son still has to be around him when I'm gone.  This is been a very tough road for us so any helpful suggestions would be of great appreciation.  Ty for ur kindness.

My opinion as a single mother:\n\nLeave ex with child, move away, forget about your school.\nRent a place, does not matter, house, apartment, in a nice small town somewhere, but far enough away. You get a job as whatever, even waitress for now. You can resume your career later in your life.\n\nYou and your child will be very happy in new life without the ex and will also life in peace.  You will then be able to have a real life, find real friends, meet real men, have a real intimate life.  Your child will respect you, trust you, know that you can protect from harm, and grow to become stable and secure in new home and new surroundings.\n\nLife can be as beautiful as you choose to make it.  Nothing of real value comes without great sacrifice  Staying in your current situation is not benefiting your child, but harming you both.\n\nGood luck to you my friend!


my husnbd will know if i sleep with my bf dose he know by my body


I have a friend that being lied too. Over 4 years a girl has been telling my friend that a guy she know is in love with her. All the while its been her talking to her on the computer not the guy. I dont know how to make my friend understand that this girl is the one she is talking to online. Just dont understand how someone can play with someone emotions like that. How can I explain to her that this girl is been lying to her all long. My friend thinks this guy loves her and going to marry her. How can i help her not to get hurt what should i do?

just tell her the truth.  Sometimes there is no sugar coating thick enough to cover up the pain she might feel.\nBut your friendship, and support will help her get through it.

it's hard to find a job with poor skills

1) Decide what kind of internship you want\n2) Find out what companies are in that field.\n3) Write or call them and ask if they have an internship program


A friend at work was not happy when I told her I wanted to get a tatoo. She brought me a verse from the bible. Alot of people have said over the years that we are not living in the Old Testament anymore and when you think about it if we still were living the old testament ways we wouldnt be doing alot of things. I have heard others say, that is why there is a New Testament. So the question really is I guess, Tatoo, or not??

Would you say the same thing about, 'Thou Shalt Not Murder?'


In the past, when the engines on a helicopter "freeze-up", does the pilot have the option of restarting his engines, while in flight, or is he and his crew doomed?  Are there any types of safety equipment installed on helicopters that would enable the doomed helicopter and its crew to land safetly on the ground or in the water?

In the event that a helicopter's engine(s) stop while it is in flight, the crew is not doomed necessarily.  There are a few options that can be persued, and in each case, immediate action is required because of very limited time.  One option is to attempt to restart the engine(s).  This may or may not work based on why the engines quit in the first place.  If they quit because they ingested a flock of seagulls, the likleyhood of a restart is not good.  If there's no obvious reason why they quit, it's not a good thing obviously, but there's nothing necessarily preventing a restart.  The thing to consider in this instance is that it takes a good bit of time to get the engines going.  In the helicopter that I fly, we really don't consider a dual engine relight to be an option unless we have approx 4000 feet of altitude or more to work with, give or take..\n\n     The other option, which the crew is doing the whole time that they're trying to get the engine(s) relit is to autorotate.  This is an aerodynamic state of flight in which the helicopter's rotor blades turn potential energy based on their altitude into kinetic energy as they execute a controlled fall through the atmosphere.  At the bottom, one hopes to use the kinetic energy that's stored in the rotor system and the aircraft's forward speed to bleed off the rate of descent and forward speed, and land...  This works best if there's some sort of a clear surface to go to because the crew can't be too picky about where they put it down..  It's best to use the wind to your advantage in this instance, and it can be done.\n\n    I've got videos of several different types of helicopters autorotating, and it's interesting to see how they differ in their flight in this regime.\n\n    The other option, which is more frowned upon is to scream like a little girl..  and the results of this method vary, and are usually not good...


Are certain people driven to become adultrers because of their genes, or is it simply a matter of making a decision to cheat on your mate for whatever reason?   \n\nCan you explain why you feel as you do?

Ok if we were all living in caves and fighting saber tooth tigers every day, I'd buy the "survival instinct" theory. But the truth of the matter is we are an advanced society that is no longer run just by instinct.  Your instincts may lead you to look at many women but it is your heart and your mind that make the decision whether or not to cheat.


I am trying to configure my Thunderbird account with my Earthlink and MyWay e-mail accounts.

we lost our daughter[32] in jan.great grandson[4mo]in dec.we are raising our daughter's daughter since 9mo.we go to church and counseling and hospice talks to us.i write in my jounal to my daughter.and pray to god to care for us.my husband had open-heart surgery on mar 10.he is doing very good.what else can i do?i know this is god's plan.god only gives so much to handle for us.

I am so sorry that you are mourning the loss of your loved ones.  Although I have never experienced the death of a descendant, I have seen how much grief death can cause.\n\nIt seems like you are already doing one very good thing that can help you a lot: prayer.  As you continue to pray, God can speak peace to your heart.  I have also found that reading scriptures is a good way to invite the presence of the Holy Ghost into my life.  Whenever you participate in something that is true, He will testify of its truth, and His presence can give you comfort because He is a Comforter.\n\nAlso, you can learn a few doctrines that can be especially comforting in times like this.  Our Heavenly Father has made it possible for our families to be together forever.  Death does not need to be the end of our family relationships if we don't want it to be.  It is possible for you to be joined to members of your family in a way that you can continue to enjoy your relationships forever.  To learn more about this, I encourage you to speak to a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.


If a girl can belly-dance, would it still be sexy if she didn't have a washboard stomach?  But still has curves?\n\nI would really like the man-perspective on this one.....what is un-sexy to you guys?  Figure and action-wise!

My wife said I could go ahead and answer this question so here goes.--I think it is fantastic if you are able to belly-dance,butttt, if you have flab where flab should not be, it can be a real turn off.  I know this sounds brutal but it is the truth.  You did not mention who you would be dancing for, ie. boyfriend, husband, or professionally.  A boyfriend or husband, if they truly loved you, would never say or hint that it was not sexy, but secretly it would be a turn off and their focus would not be on the belly but on other areas that would also be sexy during the dance. As in the dancer's legs, buttocks, breasts,etc.---you get the picture!  I'm sure you will not choose my answer as the best answer, because I was so blunt, but I am speaking from experience.  It is not a pretty site to see a lot of belly swaying towards you during a belly-dance!!  Belly-dancing does aid in loosing excess stomach mass sooo keep at it and when the mass is gone....LET ER RIP!!!! AND KNOCK THEIR SOCKS OFF!!! LOL :)  Russ

First the umpire called him safe, but then the US manager came out to argue and the ump changed the call.  What did the US manager say to the ump to get him to reverse the call?

The manager for the USA, Buck Martinez felt he saw the runner from 3rd base leave for home plate before the fielder caught the ball. The 3rd base unpire ruled he left at the right moment, however, Martinez asked the Home Plate Umpire (who has the call to make in the first place) to get the other unps together and get the call right. The home plate ump ruled the runner left before the feilder caught the ball, therefore, reversing the call. Oh Yeah, the replays showed the call was right the first time. What can you say? The USA stole one.

You cannot have a go-between. If you want to enlist in the British Armed forces (British Army, Royal Air Force or Royal Navy) then you need to go to a Armed Forced Recruiting office. You will be interviewed by a recruiting Serjeant and if deemed suitable you will have to undergo various written tests at a recruiting office. After this for men and women joining the Army you then have a "sponsoring regiment" who you will join after completion of basic training with the Army Training Regiment at one of the basic training depots such as Pirbright or Deepcut. After basic training you move to your regiment and complete your training in the specialist role such as Infantry, Engineers, Artillery etc.\n\nCheck out the service website for the nearest recruiting office or to talk online with a recruiting officer:\n\nhttp://www.armyjobs.mod.uk/\nhttp://www.royalnavy.mod.uk/server.php?show=nav.4003\nhttp://www.rafcareers.com/


this is part of a research study looking at the associations that people make with eyeglasses/glasses and politics or politicians....\n\nLet me know :)

It's what they use as read between the lines. Not all policies are good for the American People. Alot tend to go towards the Capitalists and Imperialists, for profits only, at the expense of the American People. You can surely understand that! They have hidden agendas in Legislature such as the Patriot Act. Raising fuel cost's, with record profits after Hurricane Katrina, and so on, and so on.

I'm 24 years old and work as an IT Consultant.  My firm has a 401k plan with matching with ING.  My company matches half of my contribution, up to 3% of my salary.  Therefore, I am planning on contributing 7% to take advantage of the match.  My question is, how do I allocate my contribution?  ING offers a variety of funds and labels them as Global/International, Aggressive Growth, Growth, Growth & Income (Stocks), Growth & Income (Stocks & Bonds), Asset Allocation, Income, and Stability of Principal.  Since I'm still young, I'm looking for a more aggressive strategy - slightly higher risk but higher estimated return.  Any advice in the form of percentages of contribution would be very helpful.  Thanks.

Here is one aggressive asset allocation that I would suggest:\n15% large-cap\n15% mid-cap\n15% small-cap\n10% international\n10% special sector (e.g., healthcare)\n10% fix income (e.g., bonds)\n10% cash \n\nHere is what I recently read: "The smartest investors concentrate on what makes a difference: asset allocation." Therefore, no matter how aggressive you are, you should get your asset allocation right and keeping your costs as low as possible.


I live in the woods in West Tennessee in a rustic cabin 17 miles from town.  Where are you from?

I am a city slicker - however, not born and raised that way. I was raised in the country, we had chickens, a few cows, a few pigs.. the only heat we had was a pot belly stove in the living room, and a wood burning cook stove in the kitchen. \n\nAt the time, I didn't like it - being young, hauling coal, cutting wood, etc - but now I'm so thankful. \n\nI consider myself a country boy to this day (I'm only 27), and I plan on moving my family to the country as soon as possible. Theres nothing like the country - I miss it every day.

Also, if I do get a mac is it worth it to get "Applecare"?

The biggest difference between the two is preference.  But being a computer science major on a college campus, I've heard my share of the debates.  So I'll try to sum up what I know.\n\nMacs are good computers (and whether mac users like or not, a mac is a "pc").  Still, there are plenty of pc makers that make equally good or even better computers.  One of the biggest plus's for apple notebooks is the batter life.  However, when bying a Mac, know that you will pay roughly about 1.5 times what you would pay for a pc.  Straight up fact.\n\nThe operating system is very simple to use, though it is far from being perfect.  In fact, over the last two years, Mac OS X has have 3 security vulnerabilities for every one security vulnerability that Windows XP has had.  Note that only about 5% of all computer users have Macs, so if you are going to be doing a lot of collaboration with other people, you may want to take what use into account.\n\nSoftware, well almost any software that you will need is available on PC.  Adobe Paintshop, video editing software, all of these kinds of major products are usually available on PC.  The downside is that Windows gives you the control to bogg down your system with undesired programs (this is not the fault of Windows but merely that of the user) where as Mac does not give the user very much control.\n\nThat sums up a lot of things.  On a personal note, my next notebook computer will probably be a Mac.  I value the battery life, and they are well built computers.  However the only reason why I am considering getting a Mac is because they will be able to run the next version of Windows (which comes out in the later half of this year).\nI hope that this helps you.\n\nAnd for those Mac users that are offended that I said that Mac OS X has security vulnerabilities, here are the facts:\nhttp://secunia.com/


My little sister just asked me what Wicca is and she is quite precotious, she wants to know EVERYTHING!\nI would love to impart my knowledge but I don't know how to explain it to her in a completely none biased and optimistic way that she will understand.

That's a good question. Since Wicca is a catch all term for many different beliefs.  \n\nI would state it as such:\n\nWicca is a pagan religion based on the traditional Pre-Christian European faiths. It is NOT witchcraft although many Wiccans do consider Wicca to be a form of witchcraft, however Wicca has a distinct set of beliefs, ritual system and organizational structures that distinguish it from other forms of witchcraft. \n\nThe fundamental theology is a belief is a god and a goddess although Wicca tends to be more Matriarchal in nature. Wiccans observe the festivals of the eight Sabbats (festivals) of the year and the full-moon (Caled Esbats);have a code of ethics they live by and hold dear and use spells, herbalism, and performing other magic to bring themselves closer to their goddess and god as well as to their natural being. \n\nThe Morality of Wicca is simple and has been summarized in The Wiccan Rede and can be further condensed into "In it harm none, do what ye will." The idea is that so long as no one is harmed, everything is good. Wicca revolves aroung the idea of universal goodness and love. \n\nYou can also explain that there are a number of Wiccan traditions such as Faery Wicca, Alexandrian Wicca, Seax-Wica, Celtic Wicca, Kemetic Wicca and yes, even Christian Wicca. \n\nThat should help explain it to your sister. I hope this helps.


or throw couches just anything beside our roads. and the damn graffiti that is painted on the barns bridges.they all need to pull time for it.

Yes, I hate when people litter.  These are the same people who would steal a parking space from an old woman, or laugh at someone who falls down.  They have no conception that there are people in this world beyond themselves or that there are consequences to their actions.


I need advice on what to say to my boyfriend. He knows how to do it better than I do and I'd like to know how to be better at phone sex. thankyou~

Just keep practicing and remember that you're stimulating him and his imagination via what he hears from you.  So describe what you'd like to do to him, give him feedback when he's describing what he's doing to you and make lots and lots of satisfied sounds!


why are 50 per cent of you's bloody rude. and the other are very nice ..  ALL THE ASSSSSSSSSHOLES DON'T BOTHER ANSWERING.

Breaking ones balls is a state of mind...and guess what...I sure as hell don't mind, I have thick skin. As far as the weirdo answers around here, well I guess to each his own. I think 50 % of those people are just bored and get a kick out of making people angry..good luck breaking those balls!!

What is apartheid? \n\nHow do you think it impacted South Africa?

Apartheid, which means "separateness" or "apart-ness" in Afrikaans, was a system of racial segregation that operated in South Africa from 1948 to the early 1990s. Under apartheid, the races were separated and black people were denied voting rights within so-called 'white' South Africa. Under the policy of apartheid (sometimes also called "Christian-Nationalism") black people were only given the vote in their separate black homelands (even though many of these people did not actually live in these homelands).


Most of the bad things that have happened to me have happened in my childhood.  Being abused by my mom's boyfriend when I was 12, being sent to foster homes, her marrying him after she was told about it, not meeting by biological father until I was 13.  Since I've become an adult my middle child was diagnosed with a rare liver cancer at two weeks old.  She was given 8 rounds of chemotherapy and had 80% of her liver removed when she was 7 months old.  I was on stand-by as a donor because they weren't sure they'd get it all.  Although in the darkest hours it's hard to think God was really there, but He was and I'm stronger for it.  My daughter is a thriving "terrible" healthy 2 year old and I have a 8 month old son and a 5 year old son who are healthy too.  It's easy to lose perspective and be negative, but good things are just around the bend.


I've been singing for years but i don't want to join the school choir because i feel that it will hold me back with my own style...i have a rather country/pop voice.  When i hear some people in choir sing by themselves they don't sound to good?  Why is that?  I think it's because they harmonize so much they forget to sound on key.

You are missing out on great training. It sounds as though you're too much of a "diva" to learn your craft. I'm a music teacher and a voice coach at the university level and I'm here to tell you, harmony is a big part of your craft. You can only lose your own style if you allow it to happen.

If it's not painful or accompanied by other symptoms, sore throat, fever, difficulty swallowing, etc., then it indicates nothing. My son has a hard lymph node behind his right ear, it came up when he was about 1 year old, he's now 22 and still has the same hard lymph node. His is actually visible, about the size of a pea.
