Who should live, the mother or her unborn child...if you were the father and u had to chose. And why?

I think perhaps God should make decisions like those. Medical Science is great and all but God has power over all things. Choose your child. From the mother's stand point what better way to die, than by giving another life. Greater love has no man than this, that he lay down his life for a friend. (I think baby relatives count too.) From the father's stand point what better way to show God you totally trust him? A friend of mine was told about six months ago that she should abort her child because he would never breathe on his own, his skull would not be formed,his facial features would be distorted, and the child's brain would be in essence.... dead.Pam and Mike were basically told to kill their unborn child because a medical test "proved" it would be for the best. Rather than putting their faith in medicine they put their faith in God and  today a miracle happened. Pam gave birth to a basically healthly child. He is breathing just fine all by himself, despite some minor physical abnormalities he is a beautiful healthy child. Praise God for this precious life! If Mike would have put his faith in science, or Pam had chosen instead to have her baby aborted because something might be wrong.... well the world would have missed out on this brand new perfect life. The real question is not who can I save? But, in whom can I put my faith? You have no control over life or death, which means YOU can NOT Choose who lives. ie. If the father decides "choose" to abort the child who is to say that during the procedure the mother would not also die? It has happened. an abortion requires a serious, though minimally invasive, surgical procedure.It's called a Dilitation and Curretage more commonly refered to as a D&C.(not only for decicive abortions, a D&C is commonly done on women who have had a spontaneous abortion or miscarriage to prevent uterine infections)I personally have seen (working on a surgical floor) women who have nearly died from complications of this "minimally invasive" procedure.If you put your faith in God he will direct your path.


Christians, when the saved physically die and go to heaven, do they become angels or other, explain.?

Not like angels. We will be raised in a glorified body, like the one that Jesus was rasied in at His resurrection.\nColossians 1:18\nHe [Jesus] is also head of the body, the church; and He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, so that He Himself will come to have first place in everything.\n1 John 3:2\nBeloved, now we are children of God, and it has not appeared as yet what we will be We know that when He [Jesus]appears, we will be like Him, because we will see Him just as He is.


Hysteroscopy\n\n\n\nHysteroscopy involves looking into the cavity of the uterus with a small "scope" as pictured above. Hysteroscopy can be performed as either an office procedure or an outpatient hospital procedure. In the office it is mainly used as a diagnostic tool to help evaluate patients that have infertility, recurrent miscarriage, or abnormal bleeding. \n\nHow is hysteroscopy done in the office?\nOffice hysteroscopy is a relatively painless procedure. Usually an appointment will be made in advance for this procedure. Upon arrival you will be given a mild pain medicine (Motrin or Anaprox) to help with cramping during the procedure. You will be place in a special chair that tilts back. The doctor will then wash the vagina and cervix off with a "prep" solution. Next a local anesthetic, like the dentists use (lidocaine), will be placed in the cervix. This usually provides excellent relief of any discomfort during the procedure. The doctor with then carefully dilate the cervix to allow the "scope" to be placed into the uterus. Usually carbon dioxide gas or water is attached to the scope to allow the walls of the uterus to expand. A bright light is also attached to the scope to illuminate the cavity of the uterus. The doctor with then carefully look at the inside of the uterus and make sure it is normal. The places where the fallopian tubes enter into the uterus can usually be seen. Any abnormalities are usually discussed afterward. In most cases a small sample of the lining of the uterus is removed for examination.. This is especially true if there is any abnormal bleeding. \n\nWhat kind of problems are found with this technique?\nIf you are an infertility patient or a patient that has had multiple miscarriages, a common finding is a "septum" in the middle of the uterus. These can cause the cavity to be "split in two" and are usually totally asymptomatic. Other common finding include uterine fibroids and polyps. Fibroids and polyps commonly cause abnormal bleeding. Sometimes cancerous or precancerous growths are found. Sometimes there are no abnormal findings, but even this information can be very useful and reassuring.\n\nWhat are the risks?\nMost patients do not have any problems and can even go back to work the same day. Some patients may feel weak and have cramps that last several hours afterward. It is suggested that someone come with you that can drive you home afterward if you normally get a lot of cramps with your periods. Spotting and light bleeding like a period can occur for several days afterward and are considered normal. Serious risks are very rare but can include--\n\nBleeding \nInfection \nPerforation of the uterus with the hysteroscope \nAllergic reaction to the anesthetic \nAllergic reaction to the "prep" solution \nWhen should I call the doctor afterward?\nYou should call the doctor is you develop--\n\nA fever above 101 \nSevere lower abdominal pain \nAbnormal discharge \nHeavy bleeding \nWhat can be done if I have a "septum"?\nA septum is an extra fold of tissue down the middle of the uterus. It usually is a congenital condition that has been there your whole life. If there is no other associated abnormality of the uterus, these septum can be cut and removed using a larger "operative" hysteroscope in the operating room. These outpatient procedures are done under general or spinal anesthesia and usually you go home the same day. The septum is cut using a "wire electrode" which the doctor passes through the operating hysteroscope.\n\nWhat if I have a fibroid?\nSome fibroids can be removed by passing a "wire loop electrode" through a operative hysteroscope. The loop is used to shave away the fibroid and the pieces removed from the uterus. Only fibroids that extend into the cavity of the uterus can be removed with this technique.\n\nWhat if I have a polyp?\nPolyps are extra growths of tissue from the lining o

kindly give me an example letter of apology specifically asking forgiveness according to the situation?

We need more details to help you out here.  The best I can do with what I know about your situation is a general appology.  Be sincere, and don't try to explain your side of it.  If you do, this may come accross as an excuse.  If you are truely sorry for what you did then say so and never say, "I'm sorry but...".  This will make the person think you don't really mean it.  Take full responsibility for your actions and admit what you did was wrong.  Ask them to look down deep in their heart and please forgive you.  Remind them of what your relationship means to you and how important they are to you.  Finish the letter by saying over again, "I really am sorry for hurting you.  I will do what ever it takes to earn your trust and restore our relationship."\n\nGood Luck!

How am I supposed to accept the Bible as the Word of God if the only "proof" of its divinity is in the Bible?

The Bible claims to be actual communication from God to humanity. Notice these biblical passages:\n\nAll Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work. 2 Timothy 3:16-17 \n\nAbove all, you must understand that no prophecy of Scripture came about by the prophet’s own interpretation. For prophecy never had its origin in the will of man, but men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit. 2 Peter 1:20-21 \n\n The Bible claims to be the very Word of God (verbum Dei), indeed, the very words of God (verba Dei). But this claim often raises a number of objections. \n\nObjection #1: The Bibles we have today are nothing like the biblical books as they were originally written. \nThis is a real concern people have. The question of whether or not the Bible was God’s Word 2,000 years ago is irrelevant if the Bible we read today is substantially different from what was originally written. Until the invention of the printing press around 1450, all literature was hand-copied and scribes could make mistakes in copying. It’s hard to know if errors are present with many ancient works simply because few early hand-written copies exist. But this is not a major concern with the biblical documents: \n\n1. There are over 24,000 surviving partial or complete manuscripts of New Testament books today. By comparison, the next largest number is for Homer’s Iliad, with only 643 surviving manuscripts. We have only 7 copies of Pliny’s History and only 10 of Caesar’s Gallic Wars―but we don’t hesitate to trust them. \n\n2. Furthermore, the New Testament has unusually early manuscripts compared with other ancient literature. Our earliest copy of Pliny’s History dates to 750 years after Pliny’s death. A lot can happen in 750 years. And the earliest copy of Gallic Wars was copied 1,000 years after Caesar’s death. By contrast, some early New Testament fragments date to within 30 years of their first writing, as with the John Rylands papyrus found in Egypt. There simply wasn’t enough time between the original writing and our earliest manuscripts to allow for much corruption. \n\n3. There are over 84,000 quotations from the New Testament (mainly from sermons) dating to the early centuries of the Church. In fact, even if we didn’t have a single manuscript of the Bible today, we could reconstruct all but 11 verses of the entire New Testament from material within 150 to 200 years from the time of Christ. \n\n4. Similarly, with the discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls in the 1950s, we now have copies of the entire Old Testament from before the time of Christ―complete copies of every book except Esther.\n\nModern translations of the Bible (New International Version, New American Standard Bible, etc.) are translated directly from these earliest biblical manuscripts. \n\nObjection #2: The Bible is just a book of fairy-tales. Its account is not historically reliable. \nWhile there are letters and songs and laws and doctrinal teachings in the Bible, the most common genre within the Scripture is history. Observers point out that the Bible is an historical document in that it consistently gives accurate information on the geography, chronology, people, places, customs, nations and events recorded within it.\n\nThe Bible is therefore unusual compared to other human religious literature. The Book of Mormon, even though relatively recent, nevertheless reads like a cheap nineteenth century American gothic novel. It describes an entire pre-Columbian civilization which shows no signs of ever having existed. There simply never was a highly advanced Jewish civilization in ancient New York. There is today, but not before Columbus. Or compare the Bible with the Hindu Vedas, which explain that the moon is 150,000 miles higher than the sun and shines with its own light (like a big GE light bulb), adding that the earth i

How do you know if you have Scaled a drawing  right in Auto CAD ie 1-40 or 1-20.?

If it is drawn 1:1, and you are scaling the drawing through printing, then try  print previews at those scales.  If it fits, then it's good.\n    If you scaled it when actually drawing it in cad, then follow juan4824's advice.  at a scale of 1:20, a line in CAD should measure 20 times LESS than the real life object it represents.  Example, a wall which is 20' in real life would measure 12"(1 ft) in CAD.  The same is true for 1:40 scale.  You can measure a line in Autocad using the DISTANCE command.  Type in DISTANCE, autocad will ask you to pick the first point.  Pick one point on the line.  The Autocad will ask you to pick the second point.  Pick the other point of the line.  Autocad will give you 4 distances.  The DELTA distance.  This is the one your interested in.  It gives you the linear distance along the line.  You'll also see X distance, Y distance, And Z distance.  The are lengths along various axis, and you're probaly not interested in these.\nHope this helps.  Good luck.

Which is the world's most expensive car?

Vehicle Of The Week \nThe World's Most Expensive Car \nMichael Frank \n\n \n\n\nThe world's most expensive car is up for sale. And whether or not you think it's worth the estimated $10 million asking price, it's no doubt exceedingly rare, beautiful and--like many follies in automotive history--a triumph of hubris over reason. \n\nThis Bugatti Type 41 Royale was the brainchild of Ettore Bugatti--and also a hugely expensive misstep in the history of his firm. In the 1920s, Bugatti was expecting to get a contract from the French military to build 16-cylinder aircraft engines. The contract never materialized, but Bugatti felt he could use half that engine, a straight eight, to form one of the most amazing luxury cars in history. \n\nThe Type 41 Royale engine had massive displacement: 12.7 liters, or over 700 cubic inches, roughly twice the size of most of the largest production V-8s that would be built by Detroit four decades later. This is still the largest engine of any car to be sold privately. \n\nEqually massive was the 15-foot wheelbase which, when bodied, stood about five feet tall at the hood alone. The car was incredibly imposing, whether in limousine or coupe form. Unfortunately, however, nobody could afford them--production began right at the start of the Great Depression. \n\nA mere six Royale's were produced and two were never sold, staying instead with the Bugatti estate. This car, the 1930 Bugatti Type 41 Royale Kellner Coach (or 'Coupe') was one of those cars (bricked up behind a false wall during World War II). It stayed with the family until 1950 when both cars were sold to American multimillionaire Briggs Cunningham, who was himself a sports car constructor and Le Mans 24-Hours racing driver. After more than 30 years of ownership, Cunningham eventually sold the car to fellow American auto connoisseur Miles Collier, who placed the Kellner Coach up for auction in 1987. \n\nThe car sold for a record £5.5 million at London's Royal Albert Hall before an audience of 4,000 enthusiasts. Now the present anonymous owner--believed to be Japanese--has commissioned Bonham & Brooks in London to offer the Bugatti Royale for resale to anyone willing to pay the asking price. (Offers should be made through Bonhams' offices in London: 011 44 20 7393 3822.) \n\n\nForbes Fact\nMore Royale engines by far were used in SNCF (French National Railway) locomotives than in cars. The French government bought several hundred of these motors and used them in pairs and even in triplicate to pull passenger railcars. Sadly, none of these engines are believed to have survived the war.

where is the center of evil? who is starting wars? where is the axis of evil? who is behind all the miseries?

The center of evil is within mankind itself. It is when we allow our hearts to harden in the face of suffering that we plant and cultivate the seed of evil. The wars are started by egos, the axis of evil is everywhere, and the one behind it all is not just one but many. If I had to chose one, I would say it's Satan or whatever dark entity one choses to believe in. It is a vile creature with no distinguishing form called "Hatred, Prejudice, Greed and Pride". It is present everywhere but I hope and I pray that one day we will all live in peace and love as God intended when he gave us the gift of life. As a former cop, I have seen things that no man or woman should ever have to see but I never forgotten why I became a cop. It was because I love my fellow man and I wanted to protect those who could not, or would not, protect themselves. It is like the Medical field where it is easy to become jaded but I never allowed that to happen. Each story is etched in my mind and my heart and I will never forget the suffering that I've seen. But, I have seen the good as well and that, my friend, gives me hope. Just even asking the question that you have asked here tells me we are alike in our love for humanity and it's people like you that keep this world going and it's heart beating. I hate human suffering in any form and I do my best to help. That is all any of us can do. My main contribution is to have raised my daughter to love and to live and let live. I taught her that if just one person every day helps another when they don't have to but out of the goodness of their hearts, and they ask nothing more in return than to have the one they help, help another and pass it along without any expectation of reward, just to keep that chain of love going, it would be like life's blood flowing through the veins to the heart and that heart would remain healthy and beating for as long as God sees fit, then what a gloriously wonderful world this would be. If we have faith, if we pray, if we are willing to teach and learn from one another and about one another, fear and hatred would transform into love and understanding. Maybe one day, maybe one day! We can change if we want to, if we can just remember that we are all brothers and sisters under God and love and respect each other regardless of race, creed, religion or color. God bless. =) Tina. PS sorry for the dissertation, I'm just rather passionate about this subject. I'm a writer, what can I say?

Do you believe that the Dietary Laws of God tell Christians not to eat certain meats?

There were different viewpoints in the early Christian church on this issue.  Some felt that in order to be a Christian, you had to first become Jewish and keep all the Jewish laws with perhaps the exception of the sacrifices.  Others felt that you did not have to follow all the Jewish laws, but that certain ones ought to be kept, such as the Jewish calendar (Holidays), the moral laws, and dietary laws.  Others, and Paul is in this group, felt that one did not have to keep any of the Jewish laws except for the laws of morality.  \n\nPaul has the largest influence in the New Testament, and therefore most Christians do not feel any obligation to keep the dietary laws.  But understand that Paul did not view the Torah (Law) as totally bad.  He felt that it was good for teaching us what sin is.  And he also felt that it was not bad in itself, but Paul did object to the way the "Judaizers" (those of the first 2 groups I mentioned) VIEWED the law.  Paul taught that the law is well and good, but it does not lead to salvation.  You are justified by grace through faith in Jesus Christ.  And that is your salvation, not works of the law.\n\nSo here is my advice:  If you agree with Paul, then I think you may keep the dietary laws or other laws of the Torah, JUST AS LONG as you do not begin to think that it is by the performance of that law that you have salvation.  Salvation is by the grace of God through your faith in Jesus.\nThat's Paul.\n\nNow, my opinion:  Our body is a temple (Paul also agrees with this concept) and therefore we are to take care of it and keep it pure.  So if you believe that by keeping the dietary laws, you will be healthier, then I say by all means, you should do that.  But honestly we do not know for sure why those Laws were ever given.  The Bible does not say to follow those dietary laws so that you will be healthier, but so that you will be "holy."  If the Bible was trying to give you a diet for good health, it should have prohibited eggs and poison mushrooms.  But it does not.  And furthermore, eating meat is not considered the healthiest diet.  The original plan of God in the Bible seems to be vegetarianism.  Remember that before Noah, God gave the people "every herb of the trees, etc" as food.  It was a vegetarian system.  But after Noah, then God allowed meat-eating, but it can almost be seen as a concession.  The Jewish interpretation is that God saw how wicked man was and that he just wasn't good enought that God could expect them to be strict vegetarians.  So he said, Ok, you can eat meat, just so long as you do not eat the blood, etc.\n\nThe only reason that the Bible gives for the dietary laws is so that "you will be holy, as I the Lord your God am holy."  In Hebrew, the word holy carries the connotation of set apart.  It has been speculated that God was trying to set the Jewish people apart from the surrounding nations.  Many of them sacrificed pigs for example.  And God forbade the Israelites from this, so that they would not be like the surrounding nations, and perhaps because the pig was seen as dirty (understandably!).  \n\nIn some times and places, people have to rely on meat-eating to survive.  But I think that the ideal is vegetarianism.  According to the Bible, God gave humans dominion over the animals......but does dominion mean we have to be cruel rulers?  I think that if we are capable we should be vegetarians.  But if you are in a time and place where that is not possible, then God of course would understand.  But that is just my opinion.\n\nMy brother has a neat little book called, "What Would Jesus Eat?"  You might really enjoy that!  It talks about the diet of that time period.  And it was a whole lot healthier than what we eat!  They ate little meat, and a lot of whole grains and legumes.  They did eat a lot of fish of course, being in the Galilee.

its time to stop the violence and start an international islamic project to tell the world what is islam?

Read this aricle and you judge, not by watchind Fox news and CNN, you will be able to give good jusdgement.\n\n\nIn his book "Civilization of the Arabs," Dr. Gustav LeBon says, "The reader will find, in my treatment of the Arabs' conquests and the reason of their victories, that force was never a factor in the spread of the Koranic[1] teachings, and that the Arabs left those they had subdued free to exercise their religious beliefs. If it happened that some Christian peoples embraced Islam and adopted Arabic as their language, it was mainly due to the various kinds of justice on the part of the Arab victors, with the like of which the non-Moslems were not acquainted. It was also due to the tolerance and leniency of Islam, which was unknown to the other religions." \n\nIn another place of his book, Dr. LeBon adds, "The early Arab conquests might have blurred their common sense and made them commit the sorts of oppression which conquerors usually commit, and thus ill-treat the subdued and compel them to embrace the Faith they wanted to spread all over the globe. Had they done so, all nations, which were still not under their control, might have turned against them, and they might have suffered what had befallen the Crusaders in their conquest of Syria lately. However, the early Caliphs[2], who enjoyed a rare ingenuity which was unavailable to the propagandists of new faiths, realized that laws and religion cannot be imposed by force. Hence they were remarkably kind in the way they treated the peoples of Syria, Egypt, Spain and every other country they subdued, leaving them to practise their laws and regulations and beliefs and imposing only a small Jizya[3] in return for their protection and keeping peace among them. In truth, nations have never known merciful and tolerant conquerors like the Arabs." \n\nHe further explains, "The mercy and tolerance of the conquerors were among the reasons for the spread of their conquests and for the nations' adoptions of their Faith and regulations and language, which became deeply rooted, resisted all sorts of attack and remained even after the disappearance of the Arabs' control on the world stage, though historians deny the fact. Egypt is the most evident proof of this. It adopted what the Arabs had brought over, and reserved it. Conquerors before the Arabs -- the Persians, Greeks and Byzantines -- could not overthrow the ancient Pharaoh civilization and impose what they had brought instead." \n\nThen in another place he adds, "A few impartial European scholars, who are well-versed in the history of the Arabs, do confirm this tolerance. Robertson, in his book "Biography of Charlequin," says that the Moslems alone were the ones who joined between Jihad and tolerance toward the followers of other faiths whom they had subdued, leaving to them the freedom to perform their religious rites." \n\nIn his book "History of the Crusades," Michel Michaud says, "Islam, besides calling for Jihad, reveals tolerance toward the followers of other religions. It released the patriarchs, priests and their servants from the obligations of taxes. It prohibited, in special, the killing of priests for their performance of worship, and Omar Ibn Al-Khattab[4] did not inflict harm on the Christians when he entered Jerusalem as a conqueror. The Crusaders, however, did slay Moslems and burn the Jews when they entered the city." \n\nIn his book, "Islam: Impressions and Studies," Count de Castri says, "After the Arabs yielded to, and believed in the Koran, and people received enlightenment through the True Religion, the Moslems appeared with a new show to the peoples of the earth, with conciliation and treatment on basis of free thinking and belief. The Koranic verses then succeeded one another, calling on kind treatment, after those verses in which warnings had been addressed to the heretic tribes... Such were the


What is your greates regret in life (so far)?

MY 'GREATEST' REGRET:\nAfter having an argument with my father, a couple of weeks later he was hospitalized because he didn't feel good, my brother said. My father sent word by my brother," Tell my baby come see and we'll put everything behind us. We'll play like it never happened. Tell her I love her." My brother brought the message at 8pm but I said, "I was busy, I'd go tomorrow at lunch. At 11:45 am (less than 16 hours later) I walked into the hospital and found my brother crying, my dad had passed away 20 minutes before I got there. Reason of death, was declared 'unknown'.\n\n I regret not getting to hug and tell him,"I loved him, too".

in a broken relationship,what advise can you give your friend for her to regain her self esteem ?

This is a hard one, and trust is a hard thing to get back once its been broken. if she begins a new relationship she should definately tell her new guy how shes been hurt and that she needs him to show her hes honest. Not all guys out there are going to be so bad and you should try to give them the benefit of the doubt. If a guy hurts you and the relationship ends, try thinking of it this way: he lost more then you did. Tell her shes qa great catch just waiting for the right guy to come and see that. Good luck, and tell her i wish her the best in love.

do you think most of these anti gay republicans are actually gay, or is it all of them???

I think that this is a very valid question.\n\nThe vehemence and anger behind some of these men is so deep that one wonders if all of these feelings are simply a result of their faith, or if there are subtler things at work.\n\nI'm the first to say that "I don't get it." Where does this fear and hatred come from? As an atheist who believes in tolerance, this type of attitude baffles me to no end.\n\nWhy hate? Because a book says it's wrong? The same book says that non-believers should be stoned to death. That is disregarded as part of the old covenant which no longer applies. Why, then, keep up this madness?\n\nI actually have a question currently in the Religion & Spirituality forum that you might be interested in.\n\nhttp://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AmDxhdBqljUh3eJtEUXI8LXsy6IX?qid=1006022105916

why has it been difficult for african state to sustain paliamentry system of government?

I don't think that this is necessarily an African problem.  I think that in order to successfully cultivate a democracy that the people have to have a deep inner desire for that democracy.  They have to want it to work.  In a lot of countries we're trying to do some nation-building, and in such we're trying to help other countries become democracies, but that only worked for us because we wanted it.  We can't force it on people as we're finding out all over the world.  If there are people against a democratic form of government (and if the people who are for it aren't for it strongly enough), then there are too many ways they can muck it up for everyone else.

why are people from New Castle, England called Jordies?

They r called Geordies, and not Jordies. \n In any city or region that has a long history, its people attains a distinct identity. There are the cockneys of London; the Liverpudlians (Scousers) of Liverpool and the Mancunians (Mancs) of Manchester. And so it is with the North-East of England, but its a little more complicated than that.\nGeordie' is used to refer to the inhabitants of an area stretching from Carlisle to Durham.

What kind of crystal is best to use when shattering it with the unamplified human voice?

Doing this with an unamplified human voice is very hard, no matter what you use.  Basically, you'll need the thinnest, mosy fragile design you can find, and a very powerful diaphram.  Did you see the episode of Mythbusters where they did it?  They found a professional singer who could do it, but only after trying a couple dozen different glasses.  As far as what kind of crystal, I'm afraid I don't know that.  But ultimately, this will be much easier with an amplification system.

What is the source of energy that drives the water cycle?

Heat from the sun that warms water in the Oceans, rivers,and lakes. The water evaporates goes up inot the clouds, evaporated watre dropplets cling to dust particles in the atmoshpere, These become clouds, and as soon as enough water is clinging to one drop it beginn, rivers to rain, as if the clouds are to heavy to hold anymore. If it is cold then it will snow. This falls to the ground and (if snow melts) runs into the ocean rivers and lakes. REpeat Process with heat from the sun. ^^

Why is it that only power hungry, money grubbing, creepy politicians like Dick Cheney control the USA?

It takes an incredible amount of money and influence to run for public office, whick is why the poor and middle-class often get the short end of the stick. The only other way to do it is to have full public funding of elections. \nEvery candidate starts with the same amount of money. This evens out the playing field and keeps candidates from feeling the need to repay favors after the election. Completely clean up the system. Include serious televised debates with ALL cadidates welcome to attend. We the people will pick up the tab. I'd gladly send in $10 or $20 to support this system. I don't think it'll ever happen, though. Here's why:\n1) The politician that gets elected is the one with the most money for advertising.\n2) The polititian that gets the most money is the one in bed with the largest, richest interest groups.\n3) Said politicians are going to represent said large, rich interest groups, or risk losing funding and not being re-elected.\n4) Said interest groups are concerned primarily with increasing their own wealth and/or power.\n5) Thus the politicians, representing the groups that created and maintain their rich powerfull lifestyle, will never vote against the intrests of such groups, including but not limited too lessening said groups power over elections.\n\nThanks for letting me rant...

Because it is fun.  Nothing gives a person a better feeling than to do that.


"lol" what does it mean in your prospective?

It was a complete mystery to me for a while, & I didn't think to look it up. I have one friend who uses it all the time in text messages - so much that it's driven me a little crazy. For him it means "laugh out loud." I've heard other people say, "lot's of laughs," but that sounds a little hokey.\n\nThe thing that I like best about it - well, the only thing mildly amusing, to me at least - is that "lol" looks like an open mouth between the sides of a face, like someone saying, "OH!"\n\nStill, I wish it would disappear so I wouldn't have to be crazy anymore.\n\nAll the best.

Yes it is possible for you to have a baby using a surrogate mom.

Don't forget about adoption too as an option. there are always little kids that need a real mom & dad.


what are the most common causes of liver irritation?


just wondering, im in high school, and im thinking bout joinin the army. should i? should i wait?

Listen bud... I am an Army vet... \n\nFirst, do not listen to agenda driven, uber-liberal peaceniks\n\nSecond, the casualty rate in the Army has been as high in peace time as it has during the Guld War(s)\n\nThird, do not go in with a pre-chosen job or idea. Study for the ASVAB, see what you qualify for. Ask questions of current soldiers. Ask questions to your parents. Ask questions to your pastor or someone you trust. And ask questions of yourself. Then and only then if you feel the benefits outweigh the risks, then do it and choose the job that will also help prepare you for a career outside the Army. **By this I mean that an infantry man is prepared for what job when he gets out? Look to learn a job you like that means more on the outside as well. Not that I am knocking the infantry, but if you can do better, do better.**

Do you support the separation of religion and Government??

More than ever.  The debackle in Iraq is a perfect example why religion has no place in politics.  The Iraqi people  will not succeed in having an effective government until they employ this theory. Religion kills more people in the name of war than any other single factor, this is especially true in most Islamic countrys because anyone who wishes to interpret the Koran can do so, and many will do it to achieve their own objectives.  Look at Turkey, this is an Islamic country that has acheived much success because thet do seperate church and state.


what is the degree of the following extension over Q -- Q(sqrt(3+2*sqrt(2)))?


Is there really such thing as a just war?

Well, it would depend on what you define "just" as.  This is the point of using just war doctrine.  If it meets your definition of just, then you say it is just.  I do think there are cases when war is "just."  When it is the last resort to stop genocide for example.  When going to war is the lesser of two evils, it is just.

why do the faces of persones sitting around camp fire appear to shimmer?

Hot air is less dense than cold air.\nThe air around the fire is very hot and bends light like a lens. \nAs the fire is not uniform, the air heats and cools with the flames. This causes light to bend in different degrees. Your eyes follow these changes the objects behind the fire seems to be shimmering.

Explain how we believe the Antarctica Ozone hole forms?

This is complex issue without consensus in the scientific world.  Getting away from the politically correct interpretations is the following:\n\nFor years, the ozone depletion-impact crowd was worrying about the effects surface ultraviolet radiation would have on the Antarctic ecosystem—though, as we’ve said before, the Antarctica ecosystem, except for a few penguins, consists entirely of scientists studying the ozone hole.\nThis year (and it has happened before), the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) reported the infamous hole (which is not really a hole at all but a reduction in total column ozone) has spread over a populated area: Punta Arenas, Chile. Chilean health officials warned people to remain indoors during the high sun periods as ozone levels there dropped to about 175 Dobson Units (a measure of the total amount of ozone in the atmospheric column above any location). Similarly low values were occurring over and surround Antarctica.\nQuickly, David Hofmann, director of the Climate Monitoring and Diagnostics Laboratory of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), countered that though the hole is large, the severity of the ozone depletion within that hole was comparable to ozone levels measured over the past few years.\nThen, the World Meteorological Organization, which measures ozone depletion slightly differently, spun its own ozone yarn, declaring that the end of September’s depletion was the worst on record. But once again, as is unfortunately common with most environmental news, this is much ado about nada.\nFirst, the size, shape, and amount of ozone depletion are significantly affected by the weather. The Antarctic stratosphere was cold this past winter (global warming?), which resulted in more depletion than normal. That minor factoid was buried in the last paragraph of CNN’s coverage of this nonstory.\nAs NOAA’s Hoffman explained, “year-to-year fluctuations in the geographical size of the ozone hole and the timing of the ozone production are believed to be related to meteorological factors such as temperature and winds, rather than further increases in ozone-destroying chemicals in the atmosphere.”\nSecond, if these levels of ultraviolet radiation seen in Punta Arenas were truly harmful, most of the world’s population would be in grave danger. Most of us, on a regular basis, are exposed to solar radiation far more intense than that seen in southern Chile.\nAn index of global ultraviolet light levels, assuming cloud-free and unpolluted skies, was constructed for October 11, the same day as the 175 Dobson Units reading in Punta Arenas. The UV index there of around 9 is much lower than UV levels across more than half of the planet. Most places receive more intense solar rays than Punta Arenas does.\nThird, the expanded ozone hole is short-lived. By November, as Antarctica warms, the vortex of winds that effectively isolate Antarctica from the rest of the planet weakens, and high ozone levels over the rest of the hemisphere quickly fill the so-called hole. That process only serves to highlight the climatological uniqueness of the situation over Antarctica.

How do you deal with intense pain --- or how would you?

Shalom Aviva\nHope everything is well around you by God's grace.\n\nWhen I was in pain, I trusted in God that even the worsest of things will work out for the better. Even though my physical body was growing weak due to the pain (no meds involved)...and death will not find me...I find there's comfort accompanied in that trust.. for God will not leave you nor abandon you. Even in the worst case scenario you just need to feel His presence more than the pain. That's what I did, I sought God's presence no matter how the pain is battling within my senses. God lets that happen at times for He is strengthening my trust in Him so that I may never lose hope. Once you are in His presence, the pain is still there but it will not matter anymore... No matter how it excruciated me back then, as long as I am attuned to God's purposes, I can endure anything - for He is with me and I feel His presence.


Before we can answer about the lifecycle of a frog you need to provide us with a QUESTION about the lifecycle of a frog.


I disagree with the brothers above claiming that Blacks embrace Islam because Islam against slavery!! that's a myth, read Quran and you ll find regulations for behaving with slaves just like as matter of fact.  yes Islamic slavery wasn't based on color of skin which might be the reasons for some blacks to like Islam more.  however, it is denial to the fact that Islam establishes rules allow having sex with women-slave and enslaving others.  Go back to the history and see the Muhammed and his decendents enslaved lost of people and also they buy it right...till now there are some slavery going for the royal families and rich people.  you can see the cases of the Saudis charged in USA for slavery, one of them was a prince.\n\nBlack because they face discrimination in US and Europe, probably they think of adhere to another religion different from the majority to have their unique culture.  Islamic countries are not better in discriminations, there are discriminations based on race, religion, sex, orientation, and your public opinion.   Some groups in Islamic countries also seeked another religion as result, such as some Turkish Kurds who started to back to their old religion.   Some barbars also started to change their religion.    \n\nIslamic claims of equality is a myth and contradicting the facts that published everywhere. you can check department of state reports, or international amnesty or United Nations reports.  or Go to the constitutions of Islamic countries and see many of them apply religion as state religion or in laws have no way to let conversions from Islam to other religion.   As well as weak laws or no laws to protect against racial profilations.   openly government lunch attacks on certain groups.  such as on Palestinians Jordanians in Jordan in mid of the past century.  or attacks of Saudi Arabia on aliens.  Iran discrimination to Arabs and Kurds.  and more.\n\nRead this Article which is about Slavery in Islam, it's short:\n\nIslam's Wretched Record on Slavery\nBy Serge Trifkovic\n\nAs the recent campaign for reparations has shown, the West is still being taken to task for the fact that it used to permit slavery. But in fact the West, rather than being the origin of slavery in the world, is in fact the only civilization to have created from within itself a successful movement to abolish it. Other civilizations, like Islamic civilization, have not yet achieved this. To this day, the principal places in the world where one can buy a slave for ready cash are Moslem countries.\n\nThis should not come as a surprise, for slavery finds explicit positive support in Islam, rather than the mere acquiescence it does in Christianity. Christianity is not explicitly anti-slavery, as the long acceptance of slavery by the various churches shows, but it does not positively endorse it, either. More importantly, it was out of evangelical Christian circles that abolitionism emerged in American and Britain, and no church today countenances it. While both the Old and New Testaments recognize slavery, the Gospels do not treat the institution as divinely ordained. Christianity recognized slavery as a fact of life, as part of how the world works, as indeed it did in New Testament times.\n\nThe Koran, by contrast, not only assumes the existence of slavery as a permanent fact of human existence, but regulates its practice in considerable detail, thereby endowing it with divine sanction by revealing God's detailed will for how it should be conducted. Mohammed and his companions owned slaves. The Koran recognizes the basic inequality between master and slave and the rights of the former over the latter. To be fair, it also urges, without actually commanding, kindness to slaves, and considers a Moslem slave to be of a higher order than a free infidel. However, this does not entitle him to be set free.\n\nThe Koran explicitly guarantees Moslems the right to own slaves, either by purchasing them or as bounty of war. Mohamme

And paragraphs aren't very long, unless specified otherwise.

Actually, the Win32 API supported (and still supports for backward compatibility) media APIs that weren't COM (Component Object Model) oriented.\n\nThe Media Device functions and the Video for Windows APIs were used for playing / converting video as well as video capture and the MultiMedia functions (MCI functions) were useful for playing / recording / compressing audio data and playing MIDI.\n\nThe header file for Video for Windows is "VFW.H" if you want to look at the functions and structures (then cross-reference them to the MSDN documentation).  The multimedia APIs can be found in MMSYSTEM.H.

Well a couple things come to mind when you say that, The first thing that I think of, is since your playing a game, and you said you had a very powerful computer, I'm assuming your run of the top of the line games of today like battlefield 2, my guess would be that the game isnt releasing the memory that its holding, or maybe not even exiting correctly when you exit it. I really doubt it would have anything to do with your computer hardware, but I would try updating the game to the most current version, updating your operating system with the current bug fixes, and making sure your drivers are up to date (it never hurts to check those out). If the problem continues, I would to to the software manufcatures website, and check the help section there.

How is the match between virgo and pisces works and how about virgo and taurus?

While Virgo is very uncomfortable with ambiguity and is always categorising and organising life into clearly defined compartments, Pisces is quite content to absorb lots of seemingly contradictory ideas without having an urgent need to reconcile them. Virgo likes to carve out an area of life and specialise in it, developing skill and expertise in this well-defined domain, whereas Pisces tends to drift among a wider variety of interests. Virgo likes a neat, tidy, orderly environment, whereas Pisces's natural habitat is cluttered, sloppy, even chaotic to an outside observer. Pisces is more poetic while Virgo is more comfortable in the world of facts. Your differences do not necessarily conflict with each other and there is a good possibility that you will appreciate and understand each other sufficiently to harmonise well. Neither of you are extremely ambitious or egocentric; both are gentle, even shy people, and your sensitivity is a plus in this relationship.\n\nYou are very harmonious together and very helpful to one another. You are both very practical people and you work effectively as partners, in work or in marriage. You can build a rich and rewarding life together, for you are able to completely devote yourself to one another (and your children if you have any).\n\nTaurus is steadier emotionally than Virgo is, and Virgo appreciates Taurus' consistent nurturing, healing and soothing qualities. You share a great interest in food; Virgo is especially concerned with nutrition and is somewhat fastidious while Taurus just thoroughly enjoys it!

When was Dundee,Michigan established a city?

The village of Dundee is located in Monroe County, Michigan. As of the 2000 Federal census, the village had a total population of 3,522, but is growing. \n\n“The first settler to claim Dundee was William Remmington, who came here in 1823. In 1836, a Scottsman by the name of Alonzo Curtis became the second postmaster and decided to move the post office to the town, renaming it Dundee, in memory of his ancestors village in Scotland. That name stuck and it eventually was incorporated as a village in 1855.”

How can I stop this teacher from treating me unfairly?

First of all, he is a grown up and you, even though you don't want to be, are still considered a child.  If he is doing what you are describing, it is illegal.  It has a variety of names, including sexual harassment, sexual abuse, child abuse, soliciting, corrupting the morals of a minor, abuse of power, etc.\n\nYou write as if you are a fairly intelligent girl, so you already know this is not right.  You have to tell someone, preferably your parents.  If that is not your best option, tell a counselor, a social worker, the principal, or the police, or maybe even all of those.  Know that things might get messy when everyone begins to find out what has been happening, but if he is doing this to you, he is probably also doing it to others.  So I suspect a number of people may already know, but like you, so far they are not doing anything about it.\n\nWhy do you have to tell?  You have to tell to stop it from happening to you and also to stop it from happening to others in the future.  You have to tell because it is the right thing to do.  You have to tell because if you don't, this will get worse, not better.  Do you have a younger sister or do you know younger girls?  Do you want it to happen to them?\n\nSome may say you brought this on yourself becsause of the clothes you wear, and while that may be partly correct, it still doesn't make it ok for him to do what he is doing.  He is supposed to know better, and is supposed to be mature and able to handle the sometimes not so smart things teenagers can do.\n\nNow girl, get some respect for yourself.  You say you don't mind some of the things he does.  YOU SHOULD MIND THE THINGS HE DOES.  HE IS TAKING ADVANTAGE OF YOU AND USING YOU.  The things he is doing should happen only between people who are equals and who both agree to them.  Whether you agree to them or not, you and he are not equals.  Whether you enjoy the feelings of some of them or not, it is still not right for him to do it.  He is in a position of power and authority over you.  He is doing something that could and should land him in jail.\n\nGet to someone as fast as you can and tell and stop this from happening.

how do i get rid of my hiccups?? please help!!?

Hiccups usually go away all on their own. There might be as many "cures" for hiccups as there are families. Some popular home remedies include: \n\nTake a deep breath and hold it as long as you can. Repeat several times. \n\nTry rhythmic breathing or deep breathing. \n\nBreathe into a paper bag. \n\nHold your breath just as you think a hiccup will occur. \n\nGargle. \n\nTense your throat muscles and/or stomach muscles as you feel a hiccup coming on. \n\nPress hard against the cartilage behind your ear. \n\nPlug your ears while swallowing. \n\nDrink through a cloth or paper towel. \n\nBend over and drink from the opposite side of the glass. \n\nSwallow dry bread, peanut butter, or similarly sticky substance. \n\nSwallow a teaspoon of sugar. \n\nDissolve a teaspoon of sugar on your tongue. \n\nEat a lemon sprinkled with sugar. \n\nHave someone scare you. \n\nGive someone else a drink of water. \n\nIf you're still hiccupping after two days, contact your health care provider. Chronic hiccups can cause weight loss, insomnia, malnutrition, vomiting, and more. If you're bothered by long-lasting hiccups - and they aren't caused by a serious health problem - your physician can try chlorpromazine to stop them. It doesn't work every time, though.

curling a sport? whats next ? shaving?? how about tweezing?

That's hilarious. But I bet a sport called shaving or tweezing would be much more exciting.\n\nI don't know, maybe tweezing could be getting one of the team members stuck in a hole and the other guys have to pull him out.\n\nShaving is much more dangerous. That's when ice skaters take turns skating across a frozen pond and then shaving the ice over a particular section. If they don't get the whole section of if they fall in, they lose. (Don't worry, they'll all be wearing life ropes and have EMTs on hand.)

How do you get a credit card or business credit  in your business name and not your own name?

Not that simple.\nFirst , you might want to consider incorporating.\nThat is the first step to separating (to a certain extent) you and your business.\n\nYOur best bet is to start an relationship with a local bank that also offers business credit.\nAsk if they offer a business credit card.\nYou may need to "co sign" for the business at first.\nThis is a process that takes time, as the business grows.\nAs the business gains revenues and profits, and you can show it as a viable credit risk, then credit may be easier to get.\n\nYou will have to get used to the idea, that your personal credit might be tied in for a while.  Creditors know it is easier to walk-away from bad debt, when it does not effect personal credit.  \n\nbusiness credit is also a riskier 'bet' for the creditor.

most rivers flow from north to south. van any name a river that flows sout to north?

The longest river in the world flows north, the Nile. \n\nThe Rhine ends up northerly, though if I am not mistaken, farther inland, flows predominantly westerly.\n\nThose are the main big ones, though just about any river that empties into a body of water north of the landmass it is on, is going to, out of necessity, flow generally northerly. Such rivers would be in Canada, Alaska, and Russia emptying into the Arctic Ocean. Northern African countries with rivers emptying in to the Med, would be flowing north, though those countries are predominanty desert, so the rivers would probably not be much.\n\nThere are rivers in northern South America, in Columbia and Venezuela that would be flowing into the southern Carribean Sea on a northerly course.\n\nWith the exception of the Nile, most rivers that flow north are not in areas that attract that much attention. Afterall, how much activity is there on the Arctic Ice Pack to draw attention to frozen rivers emptying into it.\n\nIt is not a matter of more rivers flowing south, but rather most rivers THAT GET ATTENTION flow in a direction other than north. (Afterall, the Amazon River has a mostly easterly course.)

Why is investment appraisal methods such as NPV, IRR and ROI gaining popularity?

They're not gaining in popularity.  They have always been used.  NPV is the best and most informative investment analysis method to use.  If you calculate the inputs properly (such as the firm's cost of capital) it is the most accurate method to use to evaluate various investment alternatives.\nA firm should Always choose projects that generate a positive NPV.\nIRR isn't such a great measure because of its biggest assumption, which is that the cash flows generated by the project can be reinvested at the IRR, which is a very unrealistic assumption to make.

How is it that you can forgive but, not forget?

I have pondered this same thing..\n\nI can forgive someone for treating me poorly, but I will never forget how I felt when that happened.. \n\nI think it has to do with a little self preservation, and more to what you want to surround yourself with, and  not wanting to put yourself in a position to face the same types of offenses.\n\nForgetting it a very hard thing to do, because you naturally associate some things together.. like a favorite song from high school that instantly makes you feel a certain way when you hear it again, or the first time you laid eyes on your first born, or the first time your heart was broken.  You retain this data (I think) because it's all a learning process that later will help you value what is and isn't important. And the emotions tied to those things are memorized with your heart.

Are you a Muslim?  What do you think Christians should know about your faith?

Among other things, as Al-Quran states:\n\n1. That in Islam, Christians are nearest in love to Muslims than the people of other faiths and that they believe and accept Prophet Muhammad s.a.w as the Last Messenger of God.\n\n5:82-86 (Al-Ma'idah) -\n\n'Verily, you will find the strongest among men in enmity to the believers (Muslims) the Jews and those who are Al-Mushrikun (idolaters, polytheists, pagans, disbelievers in the Oneness of Allah), and you will find the nearest in love to the believers (Muslims) those who say: "We are Christians." That is because amongst them are priests and monks, and they are not proud.'\n\n'And when they (who call themselves Christians) listen to what has been sent down to the Messenger (Muhammad s.a.w), you see their eyes overflowing with tears because of the truth they have recognised. They say: "Our Lord! We believe; so write us down among the witnesses."'\n\n'"And why should we not believe in Allah and in that which has come to us of the truth (Islamic Monotheism)? And we wish that our Lord will admit us (in Paradise on the Day of Resurrection) along with the righteous people (Prophet Muhammad s.a.w and his Companions r.a)."'\n\n'So because of what they said, Allah rewarded them Gardens under which rivers flow (in Paradise), they will abide therein forever. Such is the reward of Al-Muhsinun (the good-doers).'\n\n'But those who disbelieved and denied Our Ayat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc), they shall be the dwellers of the (Hell) Fire.'\n\n2. That Prophet Jesus a.s had told the coming of Prophet Muhammad s.a.w to his people.\n\n61:6 (As-Saff) -\n\n'And (remember) when 'Isa (Jesus) son of Maryam (Mary), said: "O Children of Israel! I am the Messenger of Allah unto you, confirming the Taurat (Torah) which came before me, and giving glad tidings of a Messenger to come after me, whose name shall be Ahmad." But when he (Ahmad i.e. Muhammad s.a.w) came to them with clear proofs, they said: "This is plain magic."'\n\n3. That Prophet Jesus a.s told to worship Allah alone.\n\n43:63-64 (Az-Zukhruf) -\n\n'And when 'Isa (Jesus) came with (Our) clear Proofs, he said: "I have come to you with Al-Hikmah (Prophethood), and in order to make clear to you some of the (points) in which you differ. Therefore fear Allah and obey me.'\n\n'"Verily, Allah! He is my Lord (God) and your Lord (God). So worship Him (Alone). This is the (only) Straight Path (i.e. Allah's religion of true Islamic Monotheism)."\n\n4. That even though you don't believe in Islam, we are still friends.\n\n60:7-9 (Al-Mumtahanah) -\n\n'Perhaps Allah will make friendship between you and those whom you hold as enemies. And Allah has power (over all things), and Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.'\n\n'Allah does not forbid you to deal justly and kindly with those who fought not against you on account of your religion nor drove you out of your homes. Verily, Allah loves those who deal with equity.'\n\n'It is only as regards those who fought against you on account of religion, and have driven you out of your homes, and helped to drive you out, that Allah forbids you to befriend them. And whosoever will befriend them, then such are the Zalimun (wrongdoers).'\n\nIslam is Peace.\n\nAllah Knows Best

My daughter had lots of milia on her nose and chin when she was born. It took a while, but it went away on it's own. The doctor told me that it is normal in newborns.

If you have a Honda dealer near you, that might be your best option - I guarantee they replace stock pipes every day because they're too quiet. :)


why does electrons have negative charge?
