where was patrick henry born on may 29, 1736?

Patrick Henry\nVirginia House of Burgesses\nBorn: May 29, 1736 \nBirthplace: Hanover County, Virginia \nEducation: (Lawyer, Politician) \nWork: Elected to Virginia House of Burgesses, 1765; Admitted to the Bar of the General Court in Virginia, 1769; Elected to the Continental Congress, 1774; Virginia Militia Leader, 1775; Governor of Virginia, 1776-1778, 1784. \nDied: June 6, 1799 \n\n\n\nPortrait of Patrick Henry"Radical," is a title that few men can wear with ease. The name Patrick Henry, during the revolution and for some time after, was synonymous with that word in the minds of colonists and Empire alike. Henry's reputation as a passionate and fiery orator exceeded even that of Samuel Adams. His Stamp Act Resolutions were, arguably, the first shot fired in the Revolutionary War.\n\nPatrick Henry's personality was a curious antidote to the stern honor of Washington, the refined logic of Jefferson, and the well-tempered industry of Franklin. Young Henry was an idler and by many accounts a derelict; though everyone knew he was bright, he simply would not lift a finger except to his own pleasure. By the age of 10, his family knew that he would not be a farmer, and tried instead to train him toward academe. He would not apply himself to studies either. At age 21 his father set him up in a business that he bankrupted shortly thereafter. Finally the general public disgust in Hanover and pressure from his young family (he had married at the age of eighteen) caused him to study for six weeks and take the bar exam, which he passed, and begin work as a lawyer.\n\nIn 1764 he moved to Louisa county, Virginia, where, as a lawyer, he argued in defense of broad voting rights (suffrage) before the House of Burgesses. The following year he was elected to the House and soon became its leading radical member. It was that year that he proposed the Virginia Stamp Act Resolutions. Few members of the Burgesses, as aristocratic a group of legislators as existed in the colonies, would argue openly for defiance of Gr. Britain. Henry argued with remarkable eloquence and fervor in favor of the five acts, which by most accounts amounted to a treason against the mother country. In 1774 he represented Virginia in the First Continental Congress where he continued in the role of firebrand. At the outbreak of the revolution, he returned to his native state and lead militia in defense of Virginia's gunpowder store, when the royal Governor spirited it aboard a British ship. Henry forced the Governor Lord Dunmore to pay for the powder at fair price.\n\nIn 1776, Henry was elected Governor of Virginia. He was re-elected for three terms and then succeeded by Thomas Jefferson. He was again elected to the office in 1784. Patrick Henry was a strong critic of the constitution proposed in 1787. He was in favor of the strongest possible government for the individual states, and a weak federal government. He was also very critical of the fact that the convention was conducted in secret.\n\nPresident Washington appointed him Secretary of State in 1795, but Henry declined the office. In 1799, President Adams appointed him envoy to France, but failing health required him to decline this office too. He died on June 6, 1799 at age of 63.

if you have a problem in your relationship pray about it.?

Prayer has never done anything. Many studies have been done. All negative. Face it, as nice as it would be, there is no god. No higher power cares about you. You are on your own. I know that is a scary thought but that's all there is to it.

i have yahoo messenger and i made a 2nd profile to my normal id but when i sign in both ids appear online and?

If you want to use your old ID without the new one showing, you can open the Messenger menu at the top, click My Profiles.  You'll notice that next to your new name it has a drop down menu that says Active or Inactive.  Making it Inactive will allow you to sign on with the first ID without the new one showing up.\nBut your primary account is always going to be active.  You CAN sign on with your primary ID as invisible.  Then use the drop down box to select another ID when you open chat (Enter Chat Room as:____) or IMs (Send as:____).  However, it's going to show you as offline since the primary ID is invisible.

Which brand of brownie mix do people prefer the most Duncan Hines, Pillsbury,or Betty Crocker?


If you look at it from a aquarium, which is probably the simplist explanation.\n\nFish eat their food, whatever it may be, and produce waste. That waste decomposes into ammonia. Bacteria grow and consume the ammonia and produce Nitrites (NO2). This Nitrite is then consumed by a different bacteria which produces Nitrates (NO3). Nitrates are pretty much fertalizers for plants, and any plants you have in the aquarium will consume this for the purpose of photosynthesis. Then cycle then starts over with the fish or animals in the aquarium eating that. Other nutrients are involved of course, but that is the basis of the nitrogen cycle.


Could someone explain why Abraham Lincoln had to suspend the Writ of Habeas  Corpus to free the slaves?

the habeas corpus thing wasn't so much about freeing slaves as it was about winning the war and preserving the union.  \n\nthe idea was that doing so was necessary to prevent those people who were calling for violent revolution and actively organizing armies against the country from continuing.  habeas corpus allows a prisoner to request a hearing before a judge in order to determine whether or not the prisoner is being held lawfully - given the number of arrests that were taking place at the time, such a thing was impossible and lincoln thought it necessary to crack down on dissent.\n\n(this was one of many acts of lincoln's that were outside of his constitutional authority, by the way, including calling up a militia, instituting martial law, authorizing without congressional approval greater spending for the army and navy, as well as certain acts of war.  however many people are largely in agreement that these actions were justified considering that the survival of the nation was at stake.)\n\nin some sense slavery was at issue in the war, and if the union lost the war, then southern slaves would have been stuck as slaves in what would have become the confederate states of america.  but really, to free the slaves of the united states all he did was issue a statement that declared them free.  of course, this was outside of his constitutional authority, too, but as they say, extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures.\n\nhttp://teachingamericanhistory.org/library/index.asp?document=425\nhttp://www.heritage.org/Research/NationalSecurity/hl834.cfm


Do Hurricanes Only Happen on the Eastern side of Continents?

No.  If you watch the news during hurricane season, you see tropical storms and other systems developing off the western coast of Mexico.  These are called typhoons but rarely actually hit the U.S.  However, due to currents and air temperatures, hurricanes do tend to form off the coast of Africa.  The hurricane's direction depends on the jet stream and upper air currents, though.  That's why some hurricanes glided right into the Gulf of Mexico, while others were forced back out to sea before even touching the U.S.  Not to mention, what's east of one continent is west of another.

There are different rituals depending on your religion.  Two major religions practiced in Pakistan are Islam and Hinduism.\n\nWhen a Muslim is near death, those around him or her are called upon to give comfort, and reminders of God's mercy and forgiveness. They may recite verses from the Qur'an, give physical comfort, and encourage the dying one to recite words of remembrance and prayer. It is recommended, if at all possible, for a Muslim's last words to be the declaration of faith: "I bear witness that there is no god but Allah."\n\nUpon death, those with the deceased are encouraged to remain calm, pray for the departed, and begin preparations for burial. \n\nThe eyes of the deceased should be closed, and the body covered temporarily with a clean sheet. It is forbidden for those in mourning to excessively wail, scream, or thrash about. Grief is normal when one has lost a loved one, and it is natural and permitted to cry. When the Prophet Muhammad's own son died, he said: "The eyes shed tears and the heart is grieved, but we will not say anything except which pleases our Lord." One should strive to be patient, and remember that Allah is the One who gives life and takes it away, at a time appointed by Him. It is not for us to question His wisdom.\n\nMuslims strive to bury the deceased as soon as possible after death, avoiding the need for embalming or otherwise disturbing the body of the deceased. An autopsy may be performed, if necessary, but should be done with the utmost respect for the dead.\n\nWashing and Shrouding\nIn preparation for burial, the family or other members of the community will wash and shroud the body. (If the deceased was killed as a martyr, this step is not performed; martyrs are buried in the clothes they died in.) The deceased will be washed respectfully, with clean and scented water, in a manner similar to how Muslims make ablutions for prayer. The body will then be wrapped in sheets of clean, white cloth (called the kafan).\n\nFuneral Prayers\nThe deceased is then transported to the site of the funeral prayers (salat-l-janazah). These prayers are commonly held outdoors, in a courtyard or public square, not inside the mosque. The community gathers, and the imam (prayer leader) stands in front of the deceased, facing away from the worshippers. The funeral prayer is similar in structure to the five daily prayers, with a few variations. (For example, there is no bowing or prostration, and the entire prayer is said silently but for a few words.)\n\nBurial\nThe deceased is then taken to the cemetery for burial (al-dafin). While all members of the community attend the funeral prayers, only the men of the community accompany the body to the gravesite. It is preferred for a Muslim to be buried where he or she died, and not be transported to another location or country (which may cause delays or require embalming the body). If available, a cemetery (or section of one) set aside for Muslims is preferred. The deceased is laid in the grave (without a coffin if permitted by local law) on his or her right side, facing Mecca. At the gravesite, it is discouraged for people to erect tombstones, elaborate markers, or put flowers or other momentos. Rather, one should humbly remember Allah and His mercy, and pray for the deceased.\n\nMourning\nLoved ones and relatives are to observe a 3-day mourning period. Mourning is observed in Islam by increased devotion, receiving visitors and condolences, and avoiding decorative clothing and jewelry. Widows observe an extended mourning period (iddah), 4 months and 10 days long, in accordance with the Qur'an 2:234. During this time, she is not to remarry, move from her home, or wear decorative clothing or jewelry.\n\nWhen one dies, everything in this earthly life is left behind, and there are no more opportunities to perform acts of righteousness and faith. The Prophet Muhammad once said that there are three things, however, which may continue

in yahoo messenger how do i link 2 screen names at once?

You can have 2 different screen names, in fact 4 different screen names, but only 1 can be active at a time when you are online. In Yahoo messenger, go to Messenger -> My Profiles -> Create/Edit My Profiles. You can control which Profile/Screen Name you want to show, but only one at a time. Here's what you can do:\n\n(1) Create an additional Yahoo account\n(2) Go to http://www.meebo.com and you can log on using your Yahoo account without any downloading or installation of softwares. Alternatively, you can go to http://www.e-messenger.net\n(3) Login your second account using your yahoo messenger\n\nSo, now you are ready with 2 different screen names simultaneously. Remember, if you are logged using your account at one place, and login at the other using the same Yahoo account, your precious session might close.

Is the Queen (of England) Above The Law (besides morally)?

Firstly, England hasn't had a Queen, or a King for that matter, since Queen Anne back in the 1700's.  The present Queen of the United Kingdom and Northern Ireland is also Queen of the Dominion of Canada.  She is not above the law.  There are a great many constraints on Her power.  Members of the Royal Family can be prosecuted if one is accused of a crime.  However, the public relations scandal of a Royal committing a crime prevents that from happening.

Best supporting evidence for the existence of alien visits on Earth?

I think that personal anecdotes of alien abductions and accounts from former military personnel about supposedly classified government information on alien visitation are untrustworthy for a variety of reasons. \n\nI find the ancient artwork and accounts of people travelling in strange flying craft slightly more compelling, but again not really good evidence. \n\nThe existence of large jumps in technology in ancient civilizations might be taken as evidence by some, but I think it just points to the inventiveness of humans. \n\nWe do not have any good photographic or other evidence of alien visitation. \n\nWe do not have any physical evidence of alien visits, like materials unknown on earth. Crop circles do not constitute good physical evidence. \n\nSo, at least in my opinion, the evidence for alien visitation is very very weak.

what are the common problems of students in performing experiment in laboratory as well as the teacher?i need?

Most common problem is when students treat a laboratory experiment as following a recipie or step-by-step instructions.  They don't have an understanding of what they are doing, or why they are doing it.  \n\nAn effective way of solving this is to have the students take an active role in defining the experiment.  Well ahead of the lab, the instructor presents the problem that needs to be solved and asks the students to design an experiment to solve it.  The students sumbit their proposals in time for the instructor to review (and correct as needed) before the actual lab.\n\nThis takes more effort from the students and teacher, but pays off well.\n\nAt a minimum, you could at least require the students to come prepared for lab by having them write an outline of the experiment and having them answer some questions in thier lab notebook before they are allowed to start.

Most states offer an online filing option where you can file for a cheaper fee.  In many states is is through their secretary of state office, some others have a division or department of corporations.  The reason Nevada is the most popular is that it doesn't have a state tax.  Therefore Corporations, LLCs, etc, save tax money.

what the black lady name from the tv show the VIEW.?

Star Jones Reynolds\n\nStarlet Marie Jones Reynolds (born March 24, 1962 in Badin, North Carolina), is one of the stars of The View, a popular women-oriented talk show on the American Broadcasting Company television network. She is a former lawyer and prosecutor. She earned her B.A. at American University and got her Juris Doctor (J.D.) degree from the University of Houston.\n\nPrior to joining the cast of The View, she was a correspondent and the chief legal analyst on Inside Edition, where she covered the O. J. Simpson murder trial and was the only one to interview him during his civil trial.\n\n\nIn June 2003, Jones was sued by a landscaping company, which alleged she had agreed to ensure that the firm would receive credit for their work on a rooftop garden for her Upper East Side penthouse duplex in a quid pro quo exchange. The work was done in advance of an article about her home in the October 2003 issue of Architectural Digest. The Smoking Gun website reported on the suit, including a copy of a letter she signed which agreed to the deal.\n\nStar Jones married banker Al Reynolds in November of 2004. In December of that year, WE: Women's Entertainment named her the top Bridezilla of 2004.\n\nJones has often been the target of American tabloids and gossip shows. Jones brought a huge amount of attention to her extravagant marriage to Reynolds and the marriage became the target of many jokes by late night comedians. Jones has said repeatedly that the tabloids don't bother her as long as she "gets [her] paycheck at the end of the week."\n\nConan O'Brien has made a habit of making fun of Jones; even after her dramatic weight loss (about which Jones has said very little), O'Brien has continued to target Jones and her weight on a weekly basis. O'Brien even took a crack at Jones the night that fellow View co-host Joy Behar was a guest on his show. Jim Rome commonly refers to Star as "Planet," obviously poking fun at her weight problem. Ironically, she has lost so much weight, even since the photo accompanying this article, that she looks near-anorexic as of early 2006.\n\nJones has written two books. The first book was called You Have to Stand for Something, or You'll Fall for Anything. In January of 2006, Jones published her second book, Shine : A Physical, Emotional, and Spiritual Journey to Finding Love, detailing changes she made to re-shape her life, including her dramatic weight loss.\n\nJones Reynolds made a comment on The View show on ABC on January 19, 2006, comparing the ego of President Bush to Osama bin Laden that triggered a great deal of controversy.

What is Rational Unified Process(RUP)? how does it relate to project management?

RUP is a standardized software development process.  It had its origins in the unified modeling language.  Rational Corp. took the UML and developed a standardized process for implementing projects in a series of iterations based on its UML tools.  IBM bought Rational and continued RUP development.  IBM recently donated part of its RUP intellectual property to the open source community.  See link in sources for more info.\n\nThe second part of your question is a little harder.  How RUP relates to project managment is that RUP is a process.  It defines the steps to be taken to produce a product and it defines the deliverables to be produced at each phase.  So, the relationship between RUP and project management is RUP defines the artifacts to be produced and PM strives to manage the cost and schedule associated with producing those artifacts.


What is the explaination for seashells found on the top of a mountain?

It is quite simple really. There is no 'theory' as some of the posts have indicated. The earth is composed of a number of large plates, which move constantly (the Pacific Ocean today is spreading at 4-5 cm per year). As these plates move, they sometimes slide under one another. As this happens, the upper plate is lifted. This moves rock that was deposited in an ocean environment slowly upwards and often to the top of mountains. The process takes millions of years, so it is likely the rocks that contain the shells on the top of the mountain your husband refers to are tens of millions of years old, or older. \n\nA perfect example is Mount Everest, which has carbonate rocks (with shells) at the peak. Other examples are many parts of the Rocky Mountains in North America, and the Alps in Europe. The Sierra's in California also contain carbonate rocks in many places that did in fact originate in what is now the Pacific Ocean. It is not rare and not mysterious or theoretical. \n\nThe names of these processes, in case you want to learn more, are plate tectonics (previously called continental drift), subduction (one plate under another), orogeny (mountain building), and carbonate sedimentology( deposition of carbonate rocks).  I'm including some links with basic explanation of the concepts. \n\nAnimated illustrations of plate tectonics:\nhttp://www.ucmp.berkeley.edu/geology/tectonics.html\n\nIllustration of subduction:\nhttp://www.platetectonics.com/book/page_12.asp\n\nOrogeny:\nhttp://www.uwgb.edu/dutchs/platetec/orogeny.htm\n\nCarbonate sedimentology (great pictures of carbonates in mountains (sea shells):http://epswww.unm.edu/sed/home.htm\nOther carbonate sedimentology links:\nhttp://www.unige.ch/sciences/terre/geologie/w_groups/carbonate_sedimentology/webmain.html\n\nIf you want to see my explanation for how sea shells form in the ocean go to this question:\nhttp://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AiyMjODIRNiCqQ3uGA0_ICPsy6IX?qid=1006011004317

I need help finding a veteran representor for my father so he may get financial help from the government?

It sounds like you might be looking for a Veterans Service Organization (see the link below). They assist veterans in filing medical claims and that sort of thing. There are some names in there I'm sure you've heard of (VFW, American Legion, etc).


Does anyone else think that the stuoid questions on here should not even exist?

The problem, in my opinion, is the "name" of the service.  If it were named "Blog 'til ya drop" then the question of stupidness wouldn't be valid.  By naming it "Answers", then one expects some form of "intelligence".\n\nTry Google Answers.  I submit that you will be humbled by the "non-stupid" answers.  I repeat: humbled.


Why do classic rock radio stations play the same songs all the time?

Sure, there are limited number of classic rock songs, but there are enought that should not have to listen to anyone of them more than once a day.\nSo why does the station play the same stuff over and over?  It is easier and mose cost effective.  They are in business to make money.\nIf you want their policy changed, write to the program director of the radio station.  Get your friends to write also.  Talk it up at school.  Make suggestions as to what you want to hear.

Championship is a match whereby decides the "best" and owner of bragging rights for a specific period of time (say 1 year).  Whereas a tourney is just to see who might be the best is a series of tests for a give timeframe.

How is it determined in each country how long a presidential term should be?

All that stuff is because of their constitutions or whatever piece of writing they use as their basis for government. In our case, we have the U.S. Constitution. It dictates when presidents are elected and how they are elected and the length of their terms. I would imagine that all countries have something similar to that for their reasoning. Their founding fathers, or at least the one's who redrafted their constitutions, are the ones who decide what it should be.


yes i do  what is your name my name is amanda will you be my friend


is keith ever going to give me the chance?

Maybe. But only if you ask him and not strangers on the internet.


Just looking at it from a moviegoers standpoint, i like LOTR more. It creates a very deep setting while fully exploring each part of the world, instead of just touching upon each place. Star Wars had a couple of bad movies (I & II) and some of the worlds were shown in 20 second clips (Order 66).

If they are a true friend then never. True friends will always be friends even if you do something stupid. Sure, they might be mad at you for a while but eventually they will get over it.


Why people (and sadly, some doctors as well) call standard Medicine "allopathy"?

Sometimes you need a lech to suck out the poison.\nIt is cost effective. But bleeding, purging and vomiting do have there consequences!!


Why are there so many name-calling character-assasinating personally-attacking liberals on Yahoo Answers?

Unfortunately the people you are referring to have absorbed liberalism as a kind of religion and do not think clearly or distinctly, other than to parrot other's views. I don't spend any time on them, they don't matter to me.

How do I read PDF files when Acrobat reader doesn't work and I have no install permissions on Win2000v5sp4?


can a person live without there stomach?

Yes!\n\nThe stomach breaks down food, but it is the intestines that actually absorb the nutrients. If you ate things that did not need to be digested, you would still be able to absorb the nutrients just fine. Sure it would be a boring monotonous liquid diet.. but you could live!


What certificate is hot now and easy to get me to find a job?

how can I check up on a lawyer I want to hire, his track record and what not?

Start with your state bar association: http://www.nhbar.org/ They will have a lawyer referral service.  They should also have a list of attorneys with a disciplinary record.  Lawyers have to worry about malpractice just like doctors do.   Chances are you will get a good one.  Getting a great one takes a little more work.  Of course the great ones are very expensive.  \n\nAsk for a short list of lawyers in good standing from the state bar.  You may need to call a few attorneys or firms to find someone.  If you tell them that you don’t have a lot of money up front you’ll soon see that a lot of firms will refer you elsewhere.  Ask them up front what their fees are, including all filing fees and expenses.  They can give you an estimate.  Many lawyers are willing to meet with you for a free consultation.  As for their record - ask about it.  They should have a long list of past of clients and references.\n\nIf you are really short of cash seek out pro-bono representation.  There are good lawyers that will help out in family law matters for free through different community programs.


how do you get people to stop e-mailing you.i never gave them my adress.what do i do?

Hit the spam button.  If you put your addy into a site somewhere, thats where they got it from.  Whatever you do, DONT hit unsubscribe or respond.  That will just tell the sender that they got a valid address and will continue to send you things.  So, either hit spam, or delete.  Thats your options.

The first attempt to reproduce the First Photograph was conducted at Helmut Gernsheim's request by the Research Laboratory of the Eastman Kodak Company in Harrow, England, in March of 1952. After three weeks of work utilizing strong side lighting, high contrast film and the identical angular displacement of the camera and enlarger lenses, the lab produced this copyprint. However, because of the sharpness of the lens and the camera's objective nature of precisely copying the texture and unevenness of the plate itself, Gernsheim declared this negative-like version to be a "gross distortion of the original" and forbade its reproduction until 1977.


I am trying to find a cout date in baltimore county district court how can I do that on an individual?

Well according to their web site the have a daily court docket it says this - \n\n"The Online Daily Docket is updated between 3 p.m. and 4 p.m. each day for the next day's docket.

Will Brokeback Mountain have any impact on gay rights in the US?

I have not seen the movie, but I think that every little bit of exposure to something will cause people to become more open to it (and generally more accepting).\n\nThat being said I don't expect any CEOs to walk into their boardrooms next month and demand health benefits for the domestic partners of their employees because they saw a movie about gay cowboys.


Can't get it anymore, at least with Vaseline.\n\nThere are a couple of similar products:\nBag Balm is an over-the-counter salve that was originally made for animals, but is now used by humans.

is it true that jews killed jesus ... why so?

Jesus was sent down as a Prophet of (God), but he (Jesus) is not God or Lord, nor the son of God. Jesus was never killed or was ever crucified. He was raised to heaven and is there, and will descend at the appointed time, end all wars, and bring peace to the world.


in a algebra equation of 2x=x+12, I know all the x's have to be on one side, so -x=-x would leave me with -x.

no...it doesn't leave you with -x\n\n2x=x+12\nx=12 (you get this by subtracting the x from the right side of the equation)\n\ntaking 1x from 2x wouldn't leave you with 1:\n1x+1x=2x\n2x/x=2


She, most likely, did get the shells off the sea shore.  \nShe is a real entrepreneur.  \nThe shells were from a public beach actually laying in the front where the waves crash (you can't own the ocean, correct?) or she could be a diver and get them from the bottom of the ocean only so far out.  \nThe money received is not for the sea shells but yet for her time to collect the sea shells for YOU.  \nYou are paying her for the convenience.

how do you get your drive back naturally?

Have you been diagnosed with post partum depression?  You have to determine why your drive has decreased.. tired? fear your child may pop in?  Just not into it?  If you're going to attempt changes without the assistance of speaking to your doctor, maybe you need to spice your sex life up.  Initiate.  Be assertive.  Try new things.  Time away with your partner/spouse.  Good Luck!


If you are thinking whether to attend Yale or Havard, you might want to consider this question "which is best for me".  It's not about which one is "better".  It might be better for someone to attend Havard because Havard has what one needs.  Consider someone's needs.  Yours may be different from someone elses'.

How would you feel if he was cheating on YOU with this other girl?  Stop having anything to do with him, if he REALLY TRULY cared about you don't you think he wouldn't be dating anyone else?  Start respecting both yourself and the other woman involved and just move on from this loser.  All he cares about is getting his peter wet, if he cared about you he would be showing it.

Why is it that we can gain 5lbs in a day but it takes like a week to lose it?

When I think about that kind of stuff, the finer things in life are defined. First off, good has no meaning without bad. THen you might look at the nebular theory of the solar system. In essence, we are expanding matter, so how could this be if humans were complacent. In other words, if we were comfortable and didn't have anything to strive for, then we wouldn't be expanding. I on't know of anything that grows smaller as it ages. The fact that we are never satisfied to supports this theory. When you buy a car and a new one comes out, you want the new one. We have unlimited wants with scarce rescources. \n\nAnother linear approach to your question would be on the scarce rescorces side. The rescorces in this case would be Genes, hence, the people who eat anything and look great (screw them). The genetics, however, are a part of the expanding explosion we are in.

what is the easiest way to get rid of debt?

Only two ways: more income or less spending\n\nMore income: second job, better job, self-employment doing whatever you are good at\n\nLess spending:\nIts pretty obvious. Just go through all your spending habits and decide what you can do without or where you can save. I started riding a bicycle to work and am saving about $3000 a year in gasoline costs. Little things like bringing lunch to work instead of buying it can save lots of money over a year. \n\nOne key thing if you have a bunch of credit cards:\nPay the minimum on all of them except the one with the highest interest rate. Pay everything you can on that card. When it is paid off, take the payment from that card, combine it with the payment on one other card, and you will soon pay the second one off. Attack them one at a time, and as each payment drops from your expenses you will be able to accelerate the payments on the others. \n\nIf you have a mortgage and have the goal of paying it off there is a great tactic that will save you thousands of dollars if you can afford it. Paying the equivalent of one extra payment a year, that is 13 payments, will shorten most 30 year loans from 30 years to about 19 years. If you do this by paying extra on each monthly payment it will actually speed up the payoff as opposed to paying one extra payment during the year. Even an extra payment during the first years of a 30 year loan will save several years of payments in the end. This same principle works on student loans as well.

Words to poem about swinging up so high, nearly touch the sky?

Here's a possibility:\n\nThe Swing\nby Robert Louis Stevenson\n\nHow do you like to go up in a swing, \n             Up in the air so blue? \nOh, I do think it the pleasantest thing \n             Ever a child can do! \n\nUp in the air and over the wall, \n             Till I can see so wide, \nRiver and trees and cattle and all \n             Over the countryside-- \n\nTill I look down on the garden green, \n              Down on the roof so brown-- \nUp in the air I go flying again, \n              Up in the air and down!


My boss wants to chargeback the cost of mistakes to all employees. not just the one who made it. Can he?

No.  Its illegal.  Even if you need latex gloves to work there, and you have to pay for it, your boss cannot even take it out of your pay.  He has to have you sign a paper saying that you will pay for it, and then, ask for it when you get your pay check.  This is because of tax reasons and other moral reasons.  And once the check is in your pocket, he cannot take it unless you actually made the mistake.  And even if you made the mistake, he still cant take your money.  He has to fire you.  Because he earns profit, and not a wage.  You earn a wage.  And he has to pay for everything that goes wrong.  But if nothing goes wrong, then he can continue keeping his profit without anybody touching it right?  See?  It works both ways.  And if he cant take it anymore, he has to fire someone.  What hes doing is strictly illegal.

Why can't we just 'train' our computers to spot a virus as a virus?

We're getting closer to this kind of solution.  Host-based Intrusion Prevention Systems (HIPS) are able to identify virus-like behavior and prevent it.  This includes things like deleting files, writing files to certain folders, copying files, performing certain actions in memory, etc.  HIPS can also block certain types of network traffic.  This is an emerging technology; and it's far from perfect.  But it's a move in the right direction.  Some day our computers will recognize attack behavior and kill the malware causing it.

Make copies. The court may request you enter the pictures and receipt into evidence. You might not get them back. \n\nThe court will be grateful you came with all this info.

Is there some sort of conspiracy on ebay to get your entire bid amount?

It's called shill bidding and it's against the rules of E-Bay. A crocked seller will offer an auction and if someone bids, the seller will have a friend also bid just to raise the price. sometimes they over bid, sometimes they get lucky. To catch a shill bidder you have to watch who is bidding on who's auction in a consistant manner and that is a full time job. Read the feedback scores and stick with the higher numbers. Most people are honest, some just plain need to be taken out behind the shed.


If aliens attacked the Earth, which country would come out the best?

What do you mean exactly, by saying the US is #1 Nation?\n\nHow do you compare Nations? Are Americans better than the British or the Dutch, or everyone?\n\nIt's a powerful country, perhaps the most powerful though. Nice and all. And they do make good movies. And invented the fast food chains.\n\nI think if your scenario happens and all countries are attacked with the same force. And the US didn't stand up to the occasion. I can only think of one country that would go unharmed.\n\nThe beautiful Switzerland. Even the Aliens keep their money there;)

Wath is the proper english-word for the german-wort (Umlaut?)?

Some use the word diaersis to represent this diacritical mark, but in fact they are not the same. I have also heard the word trema used for the umlaut, but again the trema is not quite the same as the umlaut. The umlaut is basically a replacement for the ligature found often in Old English and sometimes in German as well. \n\nI would not translate umlaut as diaersis or trema if I wanted to be strictly correct. Since English steals so many words from other languages anyway, I think it could be easily argued that umlaut is a perfectly acceptable English word. You can find it in many English dictionaries after all. A quick investigation on onelook.com found more than 20 English dictionaries with references to the word umlaut.


Go to your nearest smaller drug store and talk w/ the pharmacist there.  Ask if you could shadow him for a few days.  Tell him about your dream to become one.  I say the smaller ones because you would have a much better chance at getting the answers you are looking for first hand.  You would get to see all the ins and outs and possibly even assist a bit.  If you get to do that for like a week, then you will have all the info you need to see if this is really what you want to do.  If it is, I wish you all the luck in the world because you deserve it!


If I use half a cup of sugar, does it matter if I use a nonjuice drink mix instead of juice for my toddler?

Why on earth would you want to? The sugar will make her hyper and then she will crash.  It is so much better to give them juice or gatorade or pedialite.  They have important nutrients.  Its important start healthy habits for your child now.  If she drinks sugary stuff when she is young when she is old she won't want anything but sugar and chance are will be obsese later in life because she won't know how to make good eating choices. Good habits start early- she is really impressionable right now.

The Best Diabetic Diet...\n\nUntil only recently, experts thought that sugar was to diabetics what kryptonite was to Superman.  But the understanding of diabetes has progressed faster than a speeding bullet, and with that comes sweet news for people with the disease.\n\nIf you¹re a diabetic, it's OK to have a cookie for dessert or accept a slice of Aunt Mabel's fruitcake. In fact, according to the guidelines of the American Diabetes Association, which were first revised in 1994 and most recently in December 2001, you can eat just about anything you like.\n\nThere's a caveat, however: You need to pay attention to your diet as a whole and monitor your blood sugar level two hours after meals to see whether any individual food elevates it.\n\nStill, there is no longer any such thing as a "diabetic diet."

You listen to her problems day in and day out? Are you unique in this aspect, or is she just a chronic complainer? If you are the only person (or, at least, the only guy) she brings her troubles to, I'd say she already has a thing for you, although she may not be concious of it yet. And if that's the case, it's probably up to you to make the first move. If you really can't bear to bring the subject up in person, try a note or an email. You'll probably be able to express what you want to say much more eloquently and clearly in that format, and I guarantee that she'll respect you for having the guts to say what you really think.

why I can not sign in two hotmail acounts at the same time?

When you log on to any e-mail account, it leaves a cookie on your system so that each time you come back, it knows you are already logged in.\n\nAn earlier answer said use two different browsers.\nThat works if they write their cookies in different locations. For example, it is possible to open two different Yahoo! mail accounts if you open one using IE and another using Firefox since they put their temporary files in different subdirectories.

To tell the truth, I really just think that he is judt flirting with you. Is he really likes you he should be more open with you.


I wrote this boy a note and told him that I liked him. He hasn't said anything to me since. What should I do.

if you put yourself out there and made the first move and he didnt grab at it, i wouldnt do it again with this guy. If he is interested, leave it up to him to make the next move. if you do it, it will just make you seem like you cant take no for an answer and he may be uncomfortable. Keep spending time with him, let him know that your interest hasnt changed, and if he's interested hopefully he will sum up the courage to act on it!

No never had this with a therapist and No wouldn't buy that kind of massage and No.. not cheating IF the partner's getting the same treatment in the room down the hall, and no it's not a very healthy marriage lifestyle.  But if the partner doesn't have a clue.. yes it's cheating.

What is the best trade to acquire or the best major seek in today's society, whats the leading field?

Anything, and I mean ANYTHING, in the nursing field.  There are also medical-related jobs not involving direct patient care, like medical records, which I am going to school for right now.  Medical is definitely a good way to go, but always keep your own interests at heart.


i am looking for a hotdog making machine, not a hotdog cooking the, resulte just show cooking items. thanks?

That's just it.  You don't.  You never do.  If you love him for who he is and he loves you for who you are, the best thing to do is take a chance and hope for the best.  It may not be perfect, but if you both truly love each other, it will work.  \n\nBut be careful.  Some people think that love is simply saying "i love you" or performing intimate acts.  It's not.  Its something that is much deeper, stronger.  \n\nThe only way to see if he is the one, is to take a chance and see what may come.  But don't start believeing "he is the one" going into it.  Learn for yourself if he is.


I have a 2nd home. should I rent it or sell it?

I own a fourplex and a house.  I love receiving rent check but you also have to keep in mind you will be the landlord if you don't use property management.  It's also depends on if you really need the money from selling your home.  You could sell it and invest or you could keep it and collect rent for 15 years and the sell it.  By doing that you have made money on the rent "maybe" and the house may be worth more by time you sell it.  Or my favorite, you could keep it and rent it out forever and use it as a retirement check so to speak and when it falls down just use the insurance money to rebuild. ;)

Does Everyone grow out of their nickname? Or does it just depend on the person and the name.?

Unfortunately things like "Bubba" and "junior" stick.\n\nOther things like "Snooky" and "Boo-Boo" eventually fade, particularly when those people become professionals. Though some use those silly nicknames, to endear themselves to customers, particularly in sales.\n\nNow if you are thinking of artist aliases, they keep their actual names and they picked out what they'd be known as... so when they are in their 50's they'll be haunted by their own choices.

Is it considered hooking if you get something in return for sex?

Hooking is not a legal term so its hard to say. Legally although it varies from state to state The term "prostitution" generally means the commission by a person of any natural or unnatural sexual act, deviate sexual intercourse, or sexual contact for monetary consideration or other thing of value. \n\nGiven this definition, the only women who are not Prostitutes(including your MBA and the average Housewife) are those who have sex strictly for their own enjoyment and not to recieve anything in value.


Well, before I do admit that I was  shy to discuss this with friends or even my partner. Then, my husband told me that it was such a turn-on for him to know that women masterbated and I told him that I did and he was so excited about this...so was I because I felt that I wasn't doing anything improper and I felt free and liberated :-)


a PRC file is for Palm Pilots. Your palm pilot can read that (or an ebook program on your palm pilot can).


Fertilisers or fertilizers are compounds given to plants with the intention of promoting growth; they are usually applied either via the soil, for uptake by plant roots, or by foliar spraying, for uptake through leaves. Fertilisers can be organic (composed of organic matter, i.e. carbon based), or inorganic (containing simple, inorganic chemicals). They can be naturally-occurring compounds such as peat or mineral deposits, or manufactured through natural processes (such as composting) or chemical processes (such as the Haber process).\n\nFertilizers typically provide, in varying proportions, the three major plant nutrients (nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium), the secondary plant nutrients (calcium, sulfur, magnesium), and sometimes trace elements (or micronutrients) with a role in plant nutrition: boron, manganese, iron, zinc, copper and molybdenum.


If you lived on the sun, would you still see the moon go through phases as it orbits the Earth?

No.  The moon would alwayd be full if you were on the sun, because the sun's light illuminates the moon.  You would, howvere, be able to see the side of the moon that is never possible to see from the earth (which we incorrectly call "the dark side of the moon").

with the same amount of water pressure throught a larger diameter tube, will I get more water flow?

Yes..\n\nBut isn't that obvious? Imagine a water drum with a tap at the bottom. By opening the tap the amount of water flowing out increases!\n\nThe pressure of the water at the bottom will be same in both cases (propotional to the height of the water)\n\nThis can be proved by the application of the Bernoulli's Equation between two points -\na. One at the surface\nb. One at the very end that is open to the atmosphere of the tube\n\nBernoulli's equation basically states that the following equation is a constant in the system\nC = Pressure + 0.5*d*V^2 + d*g*H\nwhere,\nd = specific density of the liquid\ng = 9.8 m/s^2\nH = height measured from a reference point (positive upwards)\nV = velocity of the fluid\n\nWe assume that the tank capacity is large enough, so that the velocity of a point at the surface is near zero (even though water is flowing out).\n\nThe pressure is also equal for the two said points (atmospheric pressure)\n\nSo we get,\n0.5*d*v^2 = d*g*h\nwhere,\nv = velocity at point b\nh = veritical height difference between points a and b\n\nSo,\nv = sqrt(2*g*h)\n\nAnd the fluid flux, the rate of water flow in volume per time unit is,\nflux = Area * Velocity\n= A * sqrt(2*g*h)\n\nIn english,\nThe volume of water flowing per second is,\n1. Propotional to the area of the apperture that is exposed to the atmosphere (and not the area of the tube in between)\n2. Propotional to the root of the height difference between the surface and the exposed end of the tube.\n\nAll this assuming ideal liquid, streamlined flow, blah.

Do anybody recomend the photo curse of "New York Institute Of Photography"?

I am in the process of taking the course.  I'm about 80% complete.  I am taking significantly better photographs now than when I first started the course.  I personally feel that the course is much better for photo technique than it is for photo business purposes.  The best teacher for the photo business is for you to either go somewhere like RIT for photography or get a low paying 'gaffer' job with a photo studio in a major city.  This will do more teaching you the business end of things.\n\nI do however highly recommend the course for photo technique.  My suggestion to minimize the cost is to do the 1-time payment, but wait until they're running a special, you can save as much as 40% off the total cost of the program (that's what I did).\n\nIf you want to see some things that I've done http://www.pbase.com/kurtteej  [I focus mostly on outdoor stuff, not stuff that would pay me].


Is Behcet's Syndrome/Disease contagious? How do I get it?

Named after the Turkish dermatologist who described it, Behçet's syndrome is an idiopathic disorder classified as a vasculitis, consisting of recurrent oral and genital ulcers plus other features, which may include uveitis, erythema nodosum, folliculitis, meningitis or central nervous system vasculitis, arthritis, and a bowel disease that resembles inflammatory bowel disease.\nBehçet’s disease is most common in Japan and China in the Far East to the Mediterranean Sea, including countries such as Turkey and Iran.\nBehçet’s is one of the few forms of vasculitis in which there is a known genetic predisposition, \nin short words, it is presumably genetical so there is a very very very small chance that you would have it.

Refsum's disease\nAlso known as:\nRefsum's syndrome\nRefsum-Thiébaut disease\nRefsum-Thiébaut syndrome\nRefsum-Thiébaut-Klenk-Kahlke disease\nSynonyms:\nAtaxia hereditaria hemeralopia polyneuritiformis, hemeralopia heredotaxia polyneuritiformis, hereditary motor sensory neuropathy, type IV, heredopathia atactica poluneuritiformis, phytanic acid storage syndrome.\nAssociated persons:\nW. Kahlke\nE. Klenk\nSigvald Bernhard Refsum\nM. F. Thiébaut\nDescription:\nThis rare disorder was the first example of an inherited disorder in fatty acid oxidation. It is characterized by phytanic acid accumulation in the blood and tissues.\n\nThe symptoms consist of night blindness (the earliest symptom), progressive nerve deafness, atypical retinitis pigmentosa, progressive concentric constriction of visual fields, lenticular opacity, peripheral polyneuropathy, absent or diminished deep tendon reflexes, cerebellar ataxia, loss of sense of smell, unsteady gait, loss of position sense, intention tremor, nystagmus, heart disease with ECG changes, ichtyosis, hyeprkeratosis palmaris et plantaris, epiphyseal dysplasia, syndactyly, hammer toe, pes cavus, urinary sphincter impairment, and osteochondritis.\n\nOnset is in childhood or adolescence up to 30 years of age. The course is progressive, with periods of stagnation and partial remission. \n\nRefsum, who observed it in five members of two unrelated Norwegian families, first reported the condition in 1945. His patients aged 25 to 41 years, were all born of consanguineous parents. The condition has since been observed in children. Inheritance is autosomal recessive.\n\nThis condition has been shown to be a disorder of lipid metabolism. In 1963 the German scientists E. Klenk and W. Kahlke detected large amounts of a peculiar branched-chain fatty acid, phytanic acid, in a Refsum patient. Dietary treatment started in Norway in 1966 under professor Lorentz Eldjarn (born 1920), Head of the Central Laboratory and Institute for Clinical Biochemistry at the Oslo University Hospital, Rikshospitalet.

How does one get through the dreaded empty nest syndrome?

First, make a list of the reasons that having an empty nest bothers you. Are you lonely? Do you miss having others to take care of? Are you bored? Are you feeling your own mortality? Maybe all of those?\n\nNext, divide the list into items you can do something about and items that you can't. Take the list of items that you CAN change, and jot down some specific ideas on how you can accomplish that.\n\nFor example, if you're bored, come up with some ideas for started a new hobby or rekindling an old one. If you're worried about your own mortality, think about going to a house of worship (if you believe in God).\n\nPick the top ideas and list them as your goals. Determine a timeframe in which you will accomplish then...then go out and do it!\n\nGood luck on this new phase in your life!\n\nDr. Barb Nefer, http://www.bnlifeskills.com


Wow...I have never heard of anyone hating Canadians...espically Americans. In my job, I talk to Americans all day, and they are usually delighted when they find out I am in Canada.

Why dont you say 'a-boot' or 'eh'?" :p Well guess I need to keep an eye on this one.

Who is tougher, Brett Favre or Lance Armstrong?Part 2 yall got the wrong anwer last time so here is part 2?

How can anyone say Lance is tougher than Brett? Lance rides a bike which he trains to do whereas Brett can't train to get hit. YOu know damn well people that qbs don't get hit in practice so when they get hit, its in a game and the hits are so brutal, people get injured to the point they can no longer play. Look at all the concussions players get after getting slammed to the ground. Or the ACL tears (and the other letter tears) that these players get. This guy has played through so many injuries and pain that how can you not say Brett is tougher. Who can play with a broken thumb ( you need the thumb to grip the football remind you) and still throw the damn ball the equivalent of a 94 mph fastball and as accurately as he does? SOme may say I am biased because I live in Wisconsin, but when you see this guy play in person like I had the ultimate pleasure to do Jan 1st at Lambeau for possibly his last game, you can see the passion and fire he has for this game. And for these damn morons who say he should retire, you are clearly retarded for even saying this. Or even thinking it. He has 3 good years left in him. All he needs is a team not made up of JV players. Take away these players from Peyton Manning: Marvin Harrison(during the first game), Brandon Stokely (leaving Reggie Wayne since Favre had Driver), Edge, Rhodes and their next 4 running backs, Dallas Clark for brief periods ( Bubba Franks was inactive alot this year) and honestly tell me Peyton Manning would be as good as he his. Oh yeah, take away 2 of his best offensive lineman and put rookies in there. Now what does that equal? The same goes for Carson Palmer and his teammates. Enough said if I do say so myself. Go Brett and give us one more year!!!!!!!!

What is the purpose of the $1 salary, such as Steve Jobs, Google Exec's, or any CEO?

It's largely a symbolic gesture meant to indicate an exec's willingness to sacrifice for the long-term success of the company. \n\nNote that a lot of execs get most of their compensation in non-salary form (bonuses, loans, stock grants, noncash benefits, and deferred salary) so they still might be making quite a bit of money. I wouldn't be surprised if your boss were in this category.\n\n(For tax purposes, they are still supposed to get taxed on the whole bundle, even if it's not salary. The only sort-of-exception to this is deferred salary, which just means "pay me a few years later so I can shift around my income and pay taxes when I get it".)\n\nAt any rate, a lot of execs are sufficiently well-off to take a one-time wage reduction and still be able to afford cheese on their Whoppers, if you know what I mean.

After Neural Networks what's new in Artificial Intelligence ?

May be Fuzzy logic. Becuase it reaches to solution faster. Its not Neural networks is unable to solve certain problems, but in reality we just dont want to proove Neural networks can solve certain type of problem, but really apply it. So the combination circuit plays a really important role.\n\nI know that the US Postal service uses Neural networks for reading postal zip code. Statistically human is 70% accurate and takes about a minute on a average. But a NN machine takes about only 5 seconds and is 98% accurate. Its so amanzing that a NN machine is more accurate in reading the stuff that humans invented ( the numerals and alphabet... )\n\nThe other fact being that Neural Network is not complete scientific. Cz it does not perform same way everytime. That is the reason its 98% accurate. So even fuzzy logic must be used by right people for right purpose But its speed is given.... as it operates in discrete/modular levels of numbers in arithmatic.\n\nhttp://www-cse.stanford.edu/classes/sophomore-college/projects-00/neural-networks/Future/


How do you overcome shyness/self-consciousness?

Maybe you have to work on your self. \nWhat i mean is, if you are not sure on how you look that would make you shy when you have to go to a party, or a club. So you can start by looking at fashion magazines to find the clothes you like and combine, and try combining your clothes and using more accesories, try all of that at home, see your self in the mirror, till you find the way you feel better.\nIf you are shy cause dont know what to talk about, you can read a little more, watch movies, read and see tv news so you know always subject that are IN.\nIf you are not satisfied at work or at school, maybe you need to improve it, find out some other issues you want to learn and take some courses. \nFinally, if you dont really have any of those problems, maybe you dont have to worry to much to live a low profile life, while you are satisfied, it must be enougth to have a plenty life.

What do you guys think of president bush? Do you think hes dumb and manipulative. or just plain dumb.?

First of all, the only info that people have access to is what they hear from the news. Now come on do you really think that the media has full access to everything that's going on in Washington? NO! We don't know all the details about what the president is doing. I'll tell you one thing though, what Bush is doing is no comparison to the crimes that Sadam commited. The countless amounts of people that he tortured and murdered is far worse of a crime than spying on possible terrorists in the U.S. that may harm Americans. Americans are so stupid in general thinking that their civil liberties are being violated by allowing the patriot to continue. Come on, do you really think the government is spying on you? If you do then, you're probably doing some shit you shouldn't be doing. I don't mind if they want to spy on me, I have nothing to hide. Bottom line, I agree with what the president is doing.

my 164 K2 Eldo all mountain board is feeling a bit big and heavy?smaller or lighter board?

It depends on how heavy you are and how aggressively you ride.  At 6'1" you should be able to ride a 164, although 160lbs is quite light.  I dont like boards less than 162 for steep and deep all mountain shredding (black and double black).\n\nYou can definitely find lighter boards.  Nidecker (the Swiss company) makes some very light boards with carbon fiber cores (the Ultralight).  They are pricey, but really nice.  I've got one, and one of my friends has one too.  \n\nBurton just came out with an even lighter board for 2006.  I've not ridden it, but I've checked it out in  the stores and it is featherweight.  But, at $900 it is the most expensive board on the market.

Windows 2000nt.  Is there a way to by-pass the password?

www.lostpassword.com has many softwares for by-passing/cracking different passwords of different programs. They have one program named windows xp/2000/nt key . Each copy costs about $295 (295 US Dollars). But you can download it for free from limewire P2P Filesharing. just enter the search keyword as "winkey.exe" without the quotes.\nYou can download limewire from www.limewire.com\nI have recently done what you want to do. Only difference is that I did it in XP. I cracked the admin(displayed only in safe mode) password. But the program supports 2000/nt/xp. So, first go to www.lostpassword.com, collect info about it, then download it from limewire. You get limewire basic from www.limewire.com if u dont have it.\n\nEXTRA INFO:\nIf you are interested in getting limewire pro, it is also very easy. In limewire basic, just type "limewire pro" and download it! \n\nENJOY!\n\nNOTE: BY-PASSING/CRACKING/HACKING PASSWORDS IS A CRIME. I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE MISUSE OF ANY PROGRAM I MENTIONED ABOVE. I HOLD NO RESPONSIBILITY. \n\nBye!

After looking through countless references I can only give you a vague answer to your question. Orion was named by the ancient Greeks; according to their mythology he was a giant hunter and one of the few male friends of Artemis, goddess of the hunt. Depending on what version of the story you hear, Orion gets killed by a giant scorpion (Scorpius). Artemis mourns his death and places him in the sky to commemorate him. \n\nThe origins of the names "Big Dipper" and "Little Dipper" are even more difficult to come by. The Big Dipper seems to just be the common name for the asterism because that's what it looks like. The Big Dipper has been called everything from "the Plow", to "the Weasel" to "the Drinking Gourd" and of course is also part of the constellation Ursa Major (the Great Bear) again from Greek Mythology. \n\nI can only guess that Ursa Minor, (the Little Bear) was named the Little Dipper because it too kind of looks like one, but also because the two patterns of stars are associated with each other from Greek Mythology. So when the Great Bear was called "the Big Dipper" it just made sense to call the Little Bear the "Little Dipper". But really Tom, your guess is as good as mine. \n\nCheck out http://www.csulb.edu/~gordon/constel.html for a list of origin stories for other constellations and asterisms.


Who here has dreadlocks and how do you maintain them? and who here has started there dreadlocks w/braids etc?

I started with comb twist.  I go to a "loctician" to keep my locs maintained.  Once a month I get it washed and I get my locs retwisted down to the roots.  I usally get an updo style and keep my locs up for 2 weeks.  After 2 weeks I go back to get it restyled and get the locks in the front touched up.\n\nI have heard of people getting their locs started braids.  The woman who started my locs will start really fine and straight hair with braids.

what is your opinion about Mr.Ahmadinejad,the president of iran.?

He's a puppet of the extremist muslim clerics.. He caters to the lowest common denominators in his political party with his saber-rattling rhetoric.. He promotes anti-semitism and re-writing history.. He's the last leader in the free world I'd want to be in charge of nuclear weapons..


If we went to war with Iraq as some claim, why havent we taken any of the oil and why are prices so high?

We havent taken any of the oil and Bush has made no money off of it.  The war wasnt about the oil as some would have you believe.
