When is The Conservative Republican Party going to pay back America: Isn't it time for a "SPANKING"???

Why do some parents feel its not good to teach kids about drugs and alcohol in school???

Maybe some parents believe that if they don't know about it then they won't try it. But I think that some parents are acting naive regarding this idea. It's better to educate kids (well) about drugs and alcohol coupled with parents talking to their kids as well about it. We can't leave the responsibility solely with the school. The school should also support the "parenting" of these kids since the do spend a considerable amount of time in the school with their peers. It's a balancing act and as parents we can just hope and pray that we brought them up well.

Why is soccer not one of america's  faviote sports.?

It IS one of America's favorite sports.\n\nPlease note that America, as the proper name of a country, needs to be capitalized.  Also note that "favorite" has a preferred spelling, and that questions always end in a question mark, even though you ended yours with a period (Y!A supplied the question mark).

is it ethical for lawyers to makeover their clients for trial?

It is not a problem at all.  But the person who said that juries go on facts in totally wrong.  That's why lawyers advise their clients on appearance.\n\nFor example, I have known people who have been told to dress down to draw more sympathy from the jury.  If you look like you have money, the jury is less likely to feel sorry for you and award you a large sum of money.\n\nOn the other hand, there are some people that need some clean clothes and a haircut so they don't make idiots of themselves.  If you look like a hobo, no one is likely to take you seriously.\n\nI agree with the guy who said that technically a client could even argue that their attorney was not representing them to the utmost of his ability if he didn't cover ALL his bases.

Why don't type II diabetics take cinnamon to lower their blood sugar?

Others don't use cinnamon routinely because the research looking at cinnamon administration to help control blood sugars is mixed.  Studies in rats have shown a potential benefit.  However, some studies in humans have shown an improvement and some have not.  There are no randomized, placebo-controlled trials; therefore in the trials that did show a difference, it is impossible to know how much can be attributed to placebo effect.  In addition, studies need to be large enough to prove that the apparent benefit isn't just due to chance.  Your sugar has improved, but do we know it was from the cinnamon?  Who can say?  Maybe your overall diet improved during that time; or maybe you started exercising more; or maybe the numbers you got were both within the normal range of fluctuation.  Everybody's fasting glucose will vary from one day to the next.  Still, I am an advocate of alternative medicines and am interested to see if any good trials ever come out to show one way or another if cinnamon can truly improve blood sugars.  On the other hand, there are many studies which show proven benefit for other treatments such as exercise, weight loss, and oral drugs such as metformin.

what do you guys think is the perfect song for me to walk down the aisle to?

My wedding is May 6th and I am walking down to "Inside your heaven" by Carrie Underwood, ending it after the first chorus.  Pick a song you truly like and go with.  Don't be afraid to be different.  That is what makes us all unique in our own way.  If being married in a church...you will have guidelines you need to stay within for music. If no church..be creative. Good luck and congratulations!!  Don't forget to try and sit back and relax a little before the big day...that way you can truly enjoy it.


When was the first episode of Sienfeld aired and what was it about?

"Good News, Bad News" aka the Pilot, originally called "The Seinfeld Chronicles"\n\n First aired: July 5, 1989\n\n"A girl Jerry met on the road wants to stay with him when she comes to New York. George thinks that she is just using Jerry as contingency plan. Hoffman (Kessler/Kramer see notes) comes by to borrow a couple of pieces of meat. The girl calls and asks Jerry if she can stay at his apartment for the night, when she arrives she asks to stay for another night. Jerry is disappointed when everything is going his way until he finds out she is engaged. "\n\nI actually saw this one as a rerun (daily rerun at 7pm Mon-Sat on Fox) without realizing it was the pilot. o_O

is there any word that is pronounced the exact same way world wide?

The most common example that comes to mind is "okay".  This is due mostly to the proliferation of American popular culture. \n\nAnother candidate might be "McDonalds". "Starbucks" will also be a global name soon.\n\nSorry, but "Robot" doesn't count as it is a corruption of an old Polish word for 'slave'. The word as it stands is not in current use in Poland.

All my life I have spent Pleasing other people. I give all but never receive. What can I do to receive?

We never receive blessings when we want or are looking for something in return for our giving..our true blessings come when we give knowing the recipient can never give us anything in return..\nContinue giving because it's your nature and you will receive blessings in ways you never dreamed of..it may not be when or where you want them, but you will be blessed when you are supposed to.


What did Christ ("the end of the law"): the Author of "eternal salvation" Author?

The primary question, as written, demands an answer of "nothing." There is a considerable amount of written text attributed to Jesus' followers, though perhaps to no one who actually knew him. But I've yet to run across anything that claims Jesus' own authorship.


real spelling is erasmus. Erasmus was born with the name Gerrit Gerritszoon (Dutch for Gerhard Gerhardson), probably in Rotterdam, although recent discoveries suggest he was actually born in Gouda, the Netherlands. Although much associated with this city, he lived there for only four years, never to return. Information on his family and early life comes mainly from vague references in his writings. He was almost certainly illegitimate.


I do feel you man!... I have had a similar experience happen to me... and when it came right down to it, the other guy had physical viewable marks on him and I did not...( not that I didn't either, but they were not as visible ), so because the other guy was more visibly hurt, they figured to go after me as the aggressor..., it seams that even though it might not be right, going to court showed the TRUE  intentions of the other person and who really was the aggressor... I got a good lawyer and the best advice I could give you is keep your cool in court and if it goes anything like what happen to me the other people in cross examination will loose their temper and show they do not have self control and are likely of having started the aggression upon you... Hopefully the truth comes out in court for you!


How can you acclimate your body to working swing shift?

I have worked swing shift for 9 years now. I work 12 hour shifts and it switches every 2 and 3 days between nights and days. Then when we are drafted for overtime we work 18 hour shifts. You never get used to it. Sometimes you can find someone to shift trade with all the time. Let them work all your midnights and you work all their days or visa versa. It's easier to handle that way. Then switch it every month or so to be fair to each other because some people get shift differential pay for working the night shifts.

What the best multitrack recording equipment?

Alesis Adat recorders have been the best ones in my experience. You dont loose the tracks if the unit malfunctions because they are backed up on removable hard drives. Even people that I have worked with who have powermac G5's in their studios have these interfaced to them because of reliability and their extreme usefulness for tracking live shows to be mixed/edited in a studio.\n\n“Adats are a bizillionjillionkathousand (plus infinity) times better then anything else. Including: long walks on the beach, puppies, kittens, good wine, making out with a good looking woman, and kicking your arch nemesis in the face.\n\nThey have more gravitational pull/heat outsource, pretty colors, and poems written about them then the sun does. They can cure cancer, give everyone a job, and elect an efficient congress. Like electricity, they posses powers of magic that are beyond our control and understanding. \n\nYears from now we'll have reality TV shows and documentaries about Adats, the people that use them, and how much they are better then everything else in this world (see first paragraph). Japan already has several animated series about specially trained people that are licensed by the government to use Adats for the powers of good.\n\nOne day... Many thousands of billions of years in the future, long after our civilizations have turned to dust, and the dust has turned into smaller dust, and then that dust has turned into microscopic dust, Aliens will find our Adats and know that we were totally awesome- they'll will create their own Adats and the cycle of outstanding multitrack recorders that are a Kazillion times better then any thing else we have ever known (see first paragraph) will continue.”

When you have a list of foreign words to learn what is the best way to learn them ?

Flashcards, repeating the words and their definitions over and over, and writing them down over and over and thinking of their definitions as you write them are some good techniques. Use as many ways to learn them as possible. You need to learn by SEEING, HEARING, VERBALIZING, and WRITING. This will help you whether you are a kinesthetic learner, a visual learner, or an auditory learner. Good luck!

why does the size of atoms increses as you move down a group in the periodic table?

As you go down, the electrons occupy energy levels whose energy is greater. That is, they are farther away from the nucleus. For example an element in period 6 has its outtermost electrons in the n=6 energy level. These electrons have a greater potential energy than those in the n=2 level because they are farther away from the nucleus. This is similar to an object that is higher up: It has a greater gravitational potential energy. The size of the atom increases because as more electrons are present in an atom, the more energy levels they fill. The outtermost occupied energy level of an atom is what determines size.


How should I show this girl that i like her.?

Ask her can you have a quick word alone. Tell her that you are a bit nervous but if you dont tell her whats on your mind, you may regret it forever. (she will apriciate you for having the bottle to do and say this).  Tell her that you realy like her and it would be great if she will go out with you OR if she will be your girl (but dont go over the top). It would be nice to get a positve response, but be prepared for a negative one. DO NOT worry about a negative response as this may stop you taking action. And besides you will get over it in a few hours. Make a decision, do it, or dont do it. ASAP.

Why do some people spell GOD by writing G-D?

Writing "G_d" is a practice based on the 3rd commandment ("You shall not take the name of YHWH [probably to be pronounced 'Yahweh,' traditionally ' translated as 'the LORD'] your God in vain.") But why and how did this PARTICULAR way of trying to keep the commandment come about?\n\n(In its original context the command likely had, first of all, to not dishonoring God by such behavior as lightly taking OATHS in his name and not keeping them, by extension to speaking or acting "in his name," whether claiming to speak for him, as his representative, or by claiming to follow him, but living in a way that brings dishonor to\nhim.)\n\nBut one significant expression of attempting to guard and honor the sanctity of the divine name (sometimes called the "tetragrammaton" after its four letters: Y-H-W-H) that we find many expressions of after the Babylonian Exile (6th century BC) is in special treatment of the spoken and written name(s) of God, beginning with "YHWH", and at times extending to other names and titles.\n\nWe see it in how the name was written in the scrolls of the Hebrew Bible, as well as in their early Greek translations. After the Babylonian Exile the Jews adopted the Aramaic letter forms in place of their own earlier forms. But among the Dead Sea Scrolls we find Scriptures written in the Aramaic letters, but with the divine name (which in English may be rendered YHWH) written in the older "paleo-Hebrew" script. Many early Greek translations (some as late as the 4th century AD) have the divine name written either in the Hebrew letters, or using Greek letters that LOOK like the Hebrew word. (If read as Greek one would say "Pipi", but there is no evidence such a pronunciation was ever intended.)\n\nAnother way of honoring the name YHWH that grew up at the same time was to avoid SAYING the name by substituting another Hebrew word (for Greek speakers it might be the Greek equivalent). For example, we find references to "the Name". This was at times extended to other divine names. So, for instance, in place of "God" one might say "heaven". We find some reflections of this in the NT, esp. in the gospel of Matthew, who (writing chiefly to JEWISH Christians) ordinarily speaks of the "kingdom of heaven" where other gospels use "kingdom of God".\n\nThe most important substitute was that of the word for "Lord" in place of the name YHWH. The Hebrew word was "ADONAI", Greek speakers used their equivalent, "KYRIOS". In fact, the NT throughout uses "Lord" (kyrios) when quoting OT passages that use the divine name YHWH. (This is important in connection with the claim of Christians that Jesus is divine -- calling him "Lord" was not just honoring him as "Master" but applying the divine name to him.) This practice has continued to be followed in most Scripture translations from the Hebrew, including the use of "the LORD" in most English translations. (Usually small caps are used to indicate that the original used "YHWH" not "Adonay".)\n\nEvidence for the Jewish practice is found in the customs of the Masoretes -- Hebrew scribes who carefully preserved the Hebrew text of Scripture, and added a system of markings, including accents and vowel-markings, to preserve the traditional understanding of the text. In the Masoretic manuscripts of the Hebrew Bible the name YHWH is marked with an unusual set of vowels, which if we tried to pronounce them would yield "Yehowah' [in later English, Jehovah"]. But that is not what they intended. Rather they marked the word with the vowels from "Adonay" to indicate that THIS was the word to be spoken when you came to the divine name.\n\nThe form "G_d" imitates this scribal practice of leaving out the original vowel sounds (to indicate what one is NOT s

Generally white saliva or mucous is a normal way for the lungs to keep themselves clean. If it is thick you may be dehydrated. The easiest way to make mucous thinner is to drink water. Water helps thin out the mucous and make it easier for the body to absorb. If you have any color like yellow, green, brown, you might have some kind of infection.

What is the RITES OF PASSAGE of buddhism?

Buddhism does not have "Rights of Passage." There are no special ceremonies where you are submerged in water or have a special symbol drawn on your forehead or make some huge profession of faith. The closes thing to this would be taking refuge. By taking refuge, you are acknowledging that you are seeking to be awakened into reality by accepting one teacher, the Buddha (1); to listen, study and practice Dharma (the Buddha's teachings) to overcome your own delusions. (II) and respect Sangha (the Buddha's Followers) and train in accordance with their example. (III) This is called taking refuge in the triple gem. The triple gem is:\n\n1) Buddha\n2) Dharma\n3) Sangha\n\nAt this time, you may choose to enter into the Five Precepts. These are:\n\nTo refrain from harming living creatures (killing). \nTo refrain from taking that which is not freely given (stealing). \nTo refrain from sexual misconduct. (That which causes harm [Physical or emotional])\nTo refrain from incorrect speech (lying, harsh language, slander, idle chit-chat). \nTo refrain from intoxicants which lead to loss of mindfulness. \n\nThe first part, taking refuge in the triple gem is what is done, either in private or before the Sangha community, to be a Buddhist. After that, it's just a matter of following Buddha's teachings. There are no hoops to jump through, rivers to swim in or special activities to involve yourself in unless you choose to.


You have to keep in mind that "cheating" is defined by the people involved. A better question would be "does she consider it cheating?" or "Based on what I have told her regarding the status of our relationship (whether or not we are exclusive, or exclusive to the sex of the person - no more than 1 gf or 1 bf, or whatever you all have discussed) would she consider it cheating?" She may or may not. She is who you should be asking, only she can decide. By definition monogamy is one person, not one person - per sex. So if she feels you are in a monogamous relationship, you may need to redefine what your relationship is. Your relationship, both of you could decide, is really where you all do whatever you want with guys however are faithful to each other. It is, what you both can agree that it is. Honesty is always the best policy.

what's up with everyone hating this social security reform??

Social security was a bad fix for a problem a LONG time ago.  You can thank the new deal for this horrible system we have today.  Your social security that you pay for does not go into some big fund that grows until you retire, instead it is instantly used up to pay for current retirees.  This works as long as you have more working adults than retirees, a situation that might not always be the case. (Especially if we continue to let in illegals, and then give them amnesty, more people able to draw retirement who didn't pay into it, sounds fair to a liberal!)\n\nHow do we reform the system, there are a lot of ways!  But nothing will get done if every time it is even mentioned every single democrat without thinking yells "Stop taking money from the elderly!"  They will oppose any effort at reform in any social program, so I guess our only hope is to stop electing democrats.\n\nNotice I didn't say electing republicans was the answer either, try electing some independents who support your issues! The 2 party system is quite possibly the worst thing to happen to our beautiful democracy.


Looking for info on Gideon Beret Syndrome. Can you help?

I think you're refering to Guillain Barre Syndrom. The Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) in its classic form is an acute idiopathic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy characterized by progressive muscle weakness and areflexia, usually associated with spontaneous remission. It has an annual incidence of 0.6 to 2.4 cases per 100,000 population, and occurs at all ages and in both sexes. With the marked decline in the incidence of polio, the GBS is now the most common cause of acute flaccid paralysis in healthy people.


please   how do i solve this  math questions?

>> log (x+3) + log (2-x) = 1\n\nlog( a b ) = log( a ) + log ( b ) so\nlog (x + 3) + log (2 - x) = log( (x + 3)(2 - x) ) = 1\n\nlog(e) = 1 if using natural logarithms, log(10) = 1 if using base 10 logarithms\n\nFor the former you have (x + 3)(2 - x) = -(x^2) - x + 6 = e and for the latter you have -(x^2) - x + 6 = 10.  These are both quadratic equations which should be easy to solve.  For natural logarithms you have\n\n-(x^2) - x + 6 = e\nx^2 + x = 6 - e\nx^2 + x + (1/4) = (6 + (1/4) - e) = (25/4) - e\nx^2 + x + (1/4) = (x + (1/2))^2 = (25/4) - e\nx + (1/2) = +/- sqrt( (25/4) - e )\nx = -(1/2) +/- sqrt( (25/4) - e )\n\nAs a final check on suitability of these values, we see that numerically x = 1.379... or x = -2.379... and so both x + 3 and 2 - x are positive for both values of x and so you have no problem taking log( x + 3 ) and log (2 - x) with either value for x.\n\nWith base 10 logarithms, completing the square [i.e., solving the quadratic] would lead to complex roots:\n\n-(x^2) - x + 6 = 10\nx^2 + x = -4\nx^2 + x + (1/4) = -4 + (1/4) = -(15/4)\nx^2 + x + (1/4) = (x + (1/2))^2 = -(15/4)\nx + (1/2) = +/- (1/2)sqrt(15) i\nx = -(1/2) +/- (1/2)sqrt(15) i\n\nSo probably the natural logarithm was intended. :-)\n\n>> 2^x+1 =5^1-2x\n\nIf you mean (2^x) + 1 = (5^1) - 2x then you have\n(2^x) + 1 = 5 - 2x\n(2^x) = 4 - 2x\nand "by inspection" x = 1 is a solution.\n\nIf you graph both y = 2^x and y = 4 - 2x you find only one point of intersection; alternatively, the derivative of 2^x - 4 + 2x is strictly positive, so the function is strictly increasing and continuous and so has a single zero.\n\nEither way x = 1 is the only real solution to\n(2^x) + 1 = (5^1) - 2x\n\nHowever, if you meant\n2^(x + 1) = 5^(1 - 2x)\nthen you get (x + 1) log(2) = (1 - 2x)log(5)\n(log(2) x) + log(2) = log(5) - (2 log(5) x)\n(2 log(5) + log(2)) x = log(5) - log(2)\n(log(5 * 5 * 2)) x = log(5 / 2)\nx log(50) = log(5/2)\nx = log(5/2) / log(50)\n\n>> p = a/1+be^-kt \n\nIf you meant p = a / (1 + b(e^(-kt)))\nthen with all log's to base e you have\n\na = p (1 + b(e^(-kt)))\nb = ((a / p) - 1) (e^(kt))\ne = inverse log of ( log(b) - log((a / p) - 1) ) / (kt)\nk = - (1/t) log(((a / p) - 1) / b)\np = a / (1 + b(e^(-kt)))\nt = - (1/k) log(((a / p) - 1) / b)


Can you believe that I gained 7-10 lbs in less than 4 days?

whoa!!!\n\nI know how that feels.. :(\n\nLimit your food intake and try to exercise. Walking or jogging would help a bit... \n\nAnd I'm not sure if it's healthy, but whenever I feel like I gained a lot of weight and I want to stop it, I try to drink at least 2 glasses of water before each meal to trick my stomach into "thinking" that I'm full, that way I won't eat a lot... It does work.\n\nJust don't do it habitually.


what is the history of david berkowitz (son of sam)?

David Richard Berkowitz (born June 1, 1953 in Brooklyn, New York), better known by his nickname Son of Sam, is an infamous serial killer who killed six people and wounded several others in the late 1970s. His given name was Richard David Falco; Berkowitz was the name of his adoptive parents. His birth parents were Betty Broder, who grew up into a poor Jewish family, and Joseph Kleinman, with whom Broder had an affair while still married to her husband, Tony Falco [1]. When Broder told Kleinman that she was pregnant, he told her to get rid of the baby.


what are the three basic parameters to estimate the worth of a person?

Worth is inherent. All people are made in God's image, thus have worth.  You might want to estimate whether someone is reliable or trustworthy, but that's a different issue.

I assume you mean diving to the artificial reef created off the Florida Keys by the sinking of the Adolphus Busch in 1988.\n\nHaven't been there, but everything I have heard is very, very positive and just about every dive charter company will take you out there. Holes have been cut in the boat to allow interior access (the engine room can get a little tricky they say), but it's a great dive for just about any level of experience.\n\nAnd the marine life is supposed to be great, with several huge jewfish hanging around the area. Bluefish, snapper, grunts and snook are also supposed to be pretty common, with a few people even saying they saw octopus, baracuda and sea turtle ... all in addition to the schooling fish that frequent the water off the keys.\n\nIf your thinking about taking a trip, it would probably be worth at least a look see.


which famous event is thought to be a sighting of halleys comet?

12 BC: Star of Bethlehem\n1066: William the Conquerer conquered England, Harold II of England died at the Battle of Hastings.\n1835: birth of Mark Twain\n1910: death of Mark Twain\n\nThere were some more too, I think. I'll add more if I find any.


According to the myrmecologists (ant specialists), there are over 20 000 species of ants on our planet, grouped into 350 different genera. It is in the ponerine tribe that the world's largest ants are found, namely, the Paraponera and the Dinoponera.\n \nThe Dinoponera gigantea are by far the largest, measuring up to three centimetres in length.


i'm a junior in highschool experiencing almost the samething. i need help to.


special needs children in schools. Modelling correct responses What is it?  Why it could be useful?

Modeling correct responses is more of an art than a science. It is showing a student how to take newly mastered skills, and sequence them correctly to be able to solve more complex problems or create more complex products.\n\nThis is where you show the student how to reason through things by doing it yourself on a sample item. I am about to do it for you now, for this question...\n\nWhat are the small steps you need to take to make the big step (answering the assignment)? Most skills that are taken for granted by regular ed expectations are really packages of smaller steps that most people take naturally.\n\nThis can be most easily demonstrated in regrouping in math, although you can break things down (task analyze) for ANY skill. This assumes that the student has learned single digit computation and place value, not just as rote practice, but with understanding of the concepts behind it...imagine that single digit addition and place value concepts have been modeled repeatedly, practiced in a guided format (the student does it with the teacher maintaining the thought sequence for the student..."talking" him/her through it), practiced independently with some re-teaching as needed, and practiced independently and accurately for confidence and speed.\n\nSolve 86 + 49.  First you must know how to add the 6 and the 9 (counting up on Touch Math or tallies or fingers, memorizing the fact, etc.). If you use counting up, you must know which number to start on, how many to count up, etc. If you have memorized the fact, you must have drilled it and practiced it until it comes quickly.  Then you must understand place value...that the 5 in the 15 belongs in the ones place in the answer area because it is 5 ones, and the 1 belongs in the work area tens column to be added because it is really a 10, not a 1. Then you must know to add your tens (80 + 40 = 120)...8 + 4 = 12 with the 2 in the tens column and the 1 in the hundreds.\n\nWhen you model a correct response, you take a sample item, and solve it out loud for them. So you would solve while talking yourself through it. When modeling how to pre-write, rough draft, proofread, and final copy a longer writing assignment, I've worked my way through both my wall whiteboards three times in one session. I have the students remain engaged by asking them for input for content at every step, and I award points for catching me out on errors.\n\nNow, you need to relate this back to your professor's lectures, your reading assignments, and your own thoughts. Put it in your own words.


what should I expect to experience in the air force basic training?

You get used to the food. Have to eat fast as you not have long, though you can always get more to eat if there is time. Up early and have a Bic Lighter to burn strings off your "Pickle Suit". Have to keep Everything in it's place for inspection. Hide the Shaving Razor you use and keep an unused one for inspection. Soap Dish clean so do not use soap and have Dry Clean Soap Dish, wash with your shampoo. Learn the little things/Short cuts to keep inspection cool. Pay Attention to how the Bed Made the First night as you will have to make it back the same tomorrow. "Woolly Boogers" have to be captured and disposed of. NEVER volunteer for anything and only talk if they ask, bring attention to yourself with little jokes and you will get their attention. LOL! Some is class room study, learning about chain of command, ranks who to Salute and How. Some Exercise, setups, push up that kind of stuff. Learn to shoot a gun, work as a team, sneak to the Bowling ally. Most everything you buy when you get there. The Bags we brought and clothes we wore went into a locked closet never to be seen again until we left for Training School. March everywhere. That some of it. Just make it through, be tough. You can do it and then the Tech School gets a little more slack and then when you get to your Permanent Base it get pretty fun. Like a regular job.


What do you think of a person who is into self mutilation and submissive and receives bondage?

I disagree.  It's perfectly fine.  Sometimes you would rather do it solo as opposed to having a counter-partner.


how do i share a printer between a mac and aa pc?

You'll need to set up some kind of network. You can use a crossover cable, or a router. But that's a whole different thing. \n\nOnce you've done that have the printer connected to your mac, and go into the system prefs - print & fax, and in the sharing tab and turn sharing on for that printer. Your pc should now be able to print to that computer across the network. I don't know how to do it so the printer is connected to the pc, something much more complicated probably.

What is better a better use of money?   Please answer!?

The answer to this question depends on a lot of circumstances that are specific to your parents, so no one will be able to give you THE correct answer.\n\nThat being said, there are still things to consider:\n\nSuppose your parents owe $100,000 on their current house and $60,000 in credit card debt. Let's assume that's all of their debt - a total of $160,000. Some of that debt is being repaid at a mortgage rate (what that number is depends on when they took out this mortgage), some of that debt is being repaid at credit card rates (again, these differ depending on the cards). \n\nFor the sake of argument, let's say that the mortgage rate is 6 percent and the credit card rate is 14 percent. Without doing the math (which would require a whole new set of assumptions about the term of repayment, etc.), I think it's easy to understand that repaying a loan at 6 percent is "cheaper" than repaying a loan at 14 percent. (Remember, the "cost" of a loan is really how much interest you'll pay during the repayment period).\n\nNow suppose they take the same $160,000 debt and refinance it, but now, all of the $160,000 is borrowed at 6.5% interest, rather than some at 6 and some at 14. Again, it should be apparent that the "cost" of paying back the $160,000 is "cheaper" at 6.5 percent than it was at 6 and 14.\n\n(Remember, however, that the sale and purchase of homes are associated with significant closing costs. In my area, closing costs average about 3 percent of the value of the transaction for buyers and maybe 1.5 or 2 percent for sellers. Since your parents are both selling and buying, they'll face closing costs on both transactions, and the sum total of these costs will be a significant amount.)\n\nAs for your question about closing credit cards - Credit worthiness (your ability to borrow) is based on your credit history. Banks and other lenders are notoriously reluctant to lend money to people who do not already have credit from other lenders. Part of what goes into their analysis is your ratio between credit available to you, and credit actually being used. \n\nYou might think that lenders would prefer to lend money to people who don't have any other outstanding debts, but in reality, it's the other way around. Having an established credit history, using those cards frequently, carrying a reasonable balance, and scrupulously paying them back on a month-to-month basis are all big plusses when it comes to borrowing. \n\nAnother thing that may surprise you is that lenders are more interested in how you are managing your money right now - and not AS interested in your past payment history. The fact that your parents maintained balances for many years and paid them off is not as powerful a "recommendation" for future credit as the cards and balances that they have at the time they apply for more.\n\nIn other words, it's good advice not to close out all of your credit cards. Pay off balances on cards that have the highest interest rates (they're costing you the most), and keep paying off those lower interest cards on a monthly basis.\n\nRemember - this is just generic advice - your parents may need to retain more liquidity with their money, because of their own unique circumstances (age, health, needs of the children, etc.). Real estate has been a tremendous investment for many years, but it's notoriously non-liquid, meaning it takes a lot of time and a lot of expense to get equity out of a home. Other investments (stocks, bank accounts, etc) may have lesser returns, but provide much faster access to money when an emergency arises.\n\nDefinitely speak to a financial advisor who knows your parents' unique circumstances before committing to any particular plan of action.\n\nBest of luck to you and your parents!


Do most Repbulicans equate success with becoming rich? It seems to be the case to me?

Yes.\n\nThis administrations sole goal is to make millionaires richer.  Republicans don’t seem to be aware of the chain reaction caused by neglecting the needy, but they end up paying for this neglect with higher crime rates, paying higher medical costs, and paying for higher prison populations.  They appear to be oblivious of the repercussions of having a society with a wide gap between poverty and wealth.\n\nThey tend to be less realistic.  They live their lives in a box; not looking outside of the box to get the big picture.  As long as them and their children have good health care, plenty of food, good educations and a comfortable living, they don’t see anything wrong.\n\nThis narrow view of the world causes America’s needy children to be neglected, people to go without proper housing, educations and health care.  In the long run they pay for this neglect, but can’t see beyond the box.\n\nAs for morality, I’ve never seen so much hypocrisy.  On one hand they claim to be such great Christians while on the other they ignore the teachings of Jesus which commanded we must take care of our neighbor, feed the hungry, and care for the sick.\n\nRepublicans live in a fantasy world and when their house gets broken into or they have to pay outrages hospital bills, they wonder why these things happen.

What would be the common name for this current decade, 2000-2009?  As compared to the 80's and 90's.?

I have heard it as oughts. Which is the term for zeros.\nIt's a tough one to name, along with the tens. All the other decades are easy.\nI suppose the tens decade might work, but that's not that great. How about the first decade then the second? Then happily we go into the thirties.

What are some Literacy Programs and Services??

This depends on what state/area you live in and the ages/needs of the kids. The Boys and Girls Club in most cities have afterschool tutoring programs as well as Silven Learning Center.


You wouldn't fall anywhere, you'd be stuck in the middle.  Gravity would be too strong for you to dig away from the center.

Genetics are in no way even remotely related to polygamy. Societies in the past have been polygamous, and monogamous. Every society sets up it's own social rules, but there is no standard for humans. Don't try to come up with justifications, if people want more than one, they should get more than one, and visa versa.

How come so many American people have no idea about the world map????

Beacause Americans are too lazy to learn something interesting in a classroom and are always playing video games all day long and watching too much garbage on TV!!!! I for one was born here in the U.S. know what part of the world a country is located and I'm bilingual so that makes me smarter than the one-dimensional, one language American that wants to be ignorant and dumb. Most Americans don't even know how to read a gas gauge on a car when it runs out empty on them.


when i broke up w/ my g/f i found out she was cheating on me and i beat the shitout of the guy did i overreact

Love hurts! I personally would have found a girl to kick your ex girlfriend's butt too! After all, it takes two. No, abuse is not the answer. She could have lied to him about being single. Although, I am sure it felt damn good and you felt better by kicking his butt!


is anyone going to the march tomorrow (may 1st)?????

I want to, but I'm a mother of young children and I'm scared it will get violent. In Miami, they've been making sweeps of immigrants in an effort to intimidate. My parents came to the US about 37 yrs ago when the law was tht if your child was born American, you as the foreign parents would be eligible for American citizenship.Here I am. I KNOW my parents are hard working, independent, law abiding, God fearing people that anyone would be proud to have over for dinner (not just serving it!). They came here as young students and were given an opportunity. FYI, I have an MBA, a BA in English w/out any gov't assitance. I guess I'm taking it personally. I feel for those hardworking people who just want a better future for their kids.


What is the best way to handle high blood pressure?

These are all good recommendations. I do recommend consulting a physician to determine 1. if you do have high blood pressure, 2. what is the cause, 3. what are your treatment options, and 4. do you need to be screened for heart disease and high cholesterol. Sometimes high blood pressure can simply be treated with what is called lifestyle modifications: exercise, low fat diet, reduce salt intake, etc. However, sometimes a medication or two need to be added to bring the blood pressure down. Hypertension can be sign of other things: heart diseae, sleep apnea, kidney disease, etc, and therefore further evaluation may be necessary.

what is contempoary theories in educational administration and their application?

Unfortunately for the student and the faculty, it is layers upon layers of administrators that do not have a rational reason for being on the payroll.\n There should be only two kinds of employes in schools \n1. faculty to teach the students \n2.

She's ONE of the most gorgeous girls in the world, but not THE most gorgeous. That would belong to my girl Scarlett Johansson. That's my opinion anyway, but I place Alba 2nd. When AskMen.com did a poll of the Most Desirable Women in the World for 2006, Jessica Alba DID place 1st, so there is truth in what you said.

Has anyone had an IUD inserted? HOw long did you feel pain for, or just generally icky?

I got it with OUT taking any pain killers.\nThe uterus doesn't like intruders! I am amazed that sperm can get up thereBecause my cervix is tilted at a bad angle, the doctor had to grab it with tongs and so maybe that had something to do with the amount of pain I experienced. \nNeedless to say, getting it put in was the most painful experience of my life.\n\nI was in pain for the rest of the day. Cramping. Ibuprofin and walking helped ALOT.\n\nThe next day I felt better, but still cramped. It took me about 5 days to completely feel better and back to normal. My body just didn't like it at first. \n\nIt took me a good 4 or 6 months before my periods were back to being normal and light without cramping like they'd been before. \n\nIT WAS 100% WORTH IT!!\n\nI got the copper T, and it'll stay in for the next 9 years. The discomfort was a small price to pay for the effectiveness and long-lasting potential of the IUD.


If someone gave you a dozen roses, how would you react?

It's happened. Of course, I was very flattered and thankful for such a nice gift. \n\nBut there's nothing quite as depressing as watching beautiful roses die, especially when you realize that they were basically destroyed just to make something as frivolous as a bouquet. That's why, if someone's going to give me flowers of any sort, I'd prefer for them to be silk, or even plastic. That way, I don't have to sit there and watch them wilt away.\n\nHaving said that, though, I have a relative who loves getting flowers, and do occasionally send her some (mainly because she prefers flowers above all other gifts). Apparently, she's fine with watching them sit in a crystal vase and rot.

How much should I way if I am a female and 5'4ft?

On way to find out what a 5'4 female should weigh is to calculate your BMI.  Your BMI is a ratio of your height and weight expressed in a number. To find out your BMI you need to divide your weight (measured in kg) by your height (measured in m) squared. If you do not know your measurements in the metric system you can find any number of BMI calculators online like at \n\nhttp://www.cdc.gov/nccdphp/dnpa/bmi/\n\nThe accepted definitions of weight categories by BMI are: \n\nUnderweight - BMI less than 18.5 \nHealthy weight - BMI between 18.5 and 24.9 \nOverweight - BMI equal to or greater than 25 and up to 29.9 \nObese - BMI equal to or greater than 30 \n\n\nNote: these do not take into account body type so do not rely entirely on these numbers. (ie: if you have a lot of muscle, this makes your weight more and your BMI could say you are overweight when in reality it's just muscle mass).

Where to order business name cards of my own?

Yes, there are sites that will do that, but if the cost is significantly less than a local print shop, chances are there will be advertising on the back of the card. Check it out carefully ... Nothing says "cheap" more than passing out a card that has advertising for someone else on it.


A virus particle, known as a virion, is little more than a gene transporter, consisting at the most basic level of a genome contained within a protective casing of protein.These structures can range in size from less than 20 nanometers up to 400 nanometers. you need an electron microscope to see them, and in many cases you can only see their shadow, or figure.Remember that viruses cannot reproduce on their own.Viruses are non-living particles and can only replicate when an organism reproduces the viral RNA or DNA. Viruses are considered non-living by the majority of virologists because they do not meet all the criteria of the generally accepted definition of life.


As individuals we have rights. We have a right to privacy, and this include our DNA. Besides why would the government want to keep track of something so personal for everyone in the country. \n\nBesides, the government has a bad track record of cover ups and basically not playing above the board, how could they (the government)expect us (he people) to trust them with such sensitive information. As far AS I AM CONCERNED I BELIEVE THEY WOULD DO SOMETHING UNETHICAL WITH THE INFORMATION, LIKE CLONING TO BREED SOME SORT OF GOD KNOWS WHAT. THAT'S WHY THEY SHOULD NOT BE PRIVY TO EVERYTHING. ITS LIKE INVITING STRANGERS INTO YOUR BEDROOM, OR IN THIS CASE, YOUR BODY. ITS JUST NOT A GOOD IDEA!

Does anyone know if Rob Johnson still plays football? if so, what team?

Last year he was a back-up for the Raiders.  He currently is not on any team roster, and he isn't listed as a free agent.  I think he is done and retried.  He made enough money and probably doesn't want to play.  Plus he hasn't played in a game for a few years, so no one wants him anyway.

my browser has been hijacked how can i fix it for free..i have ran all scans i can think of?

First use the antivirus and antispyware software you have to run a full system scan. Do it in the windows safe mode. (AVG and avast antivirus softwares are free while a 6 month free trial for Norton is available at pack.google.com. Lavasoft's free Ad-Aware is the best antispyware to my knowledge. Also Windows Defender from Microsoft is good enough for real-time protection). This should identify the problem and most probably would solve it as well. However, if the antivirus software is unable to delete the malware, go to Norton's website and search for the name of the malware detected. Their must be some instructions posted to tackle the problem. You might have to delete the system restore points and as well delete the particular registry entries manually if the virus still regenerates on subsequent boot up of the machine. Good Luck.\n\nPS. If you are still having trouble, use Hijack This and copy the log it generates and post it on some tech help forum. I am sure there will be plenty of people ready to help you out.\n\n_____________________________________________________\n\nAnd please after excorsizing your lost pc, do give Firefox internet browser a try.

Why does your metabolism slow down after the age of 30?

If you are inactive, research shows that you can lose 1 percent of your muscle annually after the age of 30. Muscle loss causes your metabolism to slow down, and that slowing will cause you to gain fat over time. If you don't strength train, you will lose muscle over time. If you only do aerobic training such as walking or biking, you will lose muscle over time. The key to avoiding muscle loss is to strength train!If you can increase muscle, you'll burn calories more efficiently because your metabolism will speed up and help you burn more calories and fat, 24 hours per day.

If my wife rubs brewers yeast on her  v.a.g.i.n.a, would she get a yeast infection?

I don't know about the brewer's yeast,  but a couple of the responses you have gotten here are just plain wrong.  A vaginal yeast infection is just that, it is an infection caused by an overgrowth of yeast in the vaginal canal, often resulting from loss of the normal bacteria found in this area.  The usual culprit is an organism called Candida albicans.  This is a yeast, not bacteria.  Many antibiotics when taken by women can cause a reduction of the normal bacteria in the vaginal canal, the loss of bacteria allows yeast ro grow.  Other things that can cause vaginal yeast infections can be douches, bubble baths and even sex.  There is a complex environment within the vagina a certain amount of bacteria and even a small amount of yeast is normal. also there is a normal pH.  If any of these factors become imbalanced, an infection often occurs.

When doing backstroke how can i stop my hips from bouncing side to side?  It slows me down alot!?

You need to rotate your body. When you start your recovery (hand starting from your hips moving to start your stroke above your head), initiate the movement with your shoulders. Rotate your shoulder out of the water, to under your chin. Then start your hand moving up above your face, turning your hands and placing your pinky into the water.  This movement will help to rotate your body. Don't "shrug" your shoulders to your ears. Visualize your legs following the rotation of your body, and visualize your flutter kick rotating from one side, up and over to the other side. This rotation will make your body more hydrodynamic and prevent your legs/hips from wagging side to side. \n\nA drill you can practice is the one arm back stroke. Do a lap stroking with only one arm. The arm that you are not swimming with rests at the side of your body. When you start your pull (in the water) you should be on the side with your almost all the way in the water. You should feel like you are doing a side stroke. Your kick will be a side flutter kick. When you do your recovery, kick on your back. Once your hand recover back to above your head, glide and maintain your balance. Start your pull again when you feel balanced and stable.

Is it possible to catch a porpoise with a fishing pole? They seem too smart to fall for a baited hook.?

Porpoises (I assume you mean small cetaceans) hunt their food with natural sonar (like bats), and it's sensitive enough for them to distinguish between healthy fish and sick fish (or, presumably, dead fish). So they're not likely to go for a baited hook.\n\nBut the question is, why would you want to catch them?


It is one of my all time favorite shows. Another prime example of a good show being yanked off the air. However, there is still hope. Showtime wants to air at least one, if not two more full entire seasons.\n\nFavorite characters? Have to be either Tobias or Buster. Hell, both of them! I love Tobias for his awkwardness and Buster for his damnable innocence that borders on extremely creepy. Both of them definitely need to see a psychologist, and no, not an analrapist. \n\nNo touching!\n\nAddition: To the person who responded below me, how can people dislike something they have never watched? The ratings were never high enough to use that justification for the show being cancelled. You also cannot blame ONE magazine for killing a show. The show was one of the best comedies of the decade, if not the best, and we're only half done! People did not watch it because a) Fox hardly advertised it, b) it was always put up against higher rated shows on other channels and c) intelligent comedies VERY rarely do well, especially when they are not properly promoted.


They are going to accomplish two things:  Prove exactly how irrelevant and insignificant illegal immigration is to our society and to the economy, and will wake up the slipping giant that is middle America.  This is a hugely ill-conceived idea.  The leaders of LULAC/MeCHA/Aztlan should be jailed just for ill-serving the ignorant poor people they are hurting.\n\nMy plans?  Work, my friend.  Someone's got to pay the taxes that give illegal immigrants free education, healthcare, school lunches, food stamps, subsidized housing, college tuition, oh, and I almost forgot, the ability to help them free up some cash to Moneygram back to Mexico.


Is there help for the 40 somthing menstrual cycles. Migraines, weakness, pain, poor concentration, heavy flow?

I started addressing the peri-menapausal time with Progesterone cream, which really helped regulate my cycles and make them more manageable.  Then a friend of mine introduced me to the notion of Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy, first by Suzanne Sommers's book The Sexy Years (I would never have picked it up on my own...) and then other publications. My gynecologist was supportive.  Basically you have a blood test and use hormone creams or pills to adjust your specific levels of each hormone to optimum.  Not a one-size-fits-all, synthetic medication.  Changed my life and made the changing years not only bearable but better than ever!


Cover your mouth if you want to, but it won't keep the next guy from "catching" your yawn.\nContagious yawning is real, scientists say, and it's "probably programmed into us," according to Dr. William Broughton, director of the Sleep Disorders Center at the University of South Alabama Knollwood Hospital.\n\nThe action of a mouth opening is not what compels others to yawn, Broughton said. Studies have demonstrated that showing someone a photo of a wide-open mouth does not induce a yawn.\n\nConversely, holding a hand over the mouth while yawning doesn't prevent it from being contagious, Broughton said.\n\nContagious yawns appear "basically to be a visual response," Broughton said.\n\nBetween 40 and 60 percent of people who watch videos or hear talk about yawning also end up doing the deed, according to Nature News Service.\n\nResearchers from the State University of New York in Albany tested people to find out why some are susceptible to contagious yawning and deduced that self-aware or empathetic people are more likely to catch yawns, according to the news service.\n\n"Identifying with another's state of mind while they yawn may trigger an unconscious impersonation....The findings also explain why schizophrenics, who have particular difficulty in doing this, rarely catch yawns," Nature News Service reported.\n\nBroughton said contagious yawning may be a social phenomenon, allowing groups of humans to coordinate their times of sleep.\n\nRonald Baenninger, a professor in the psychology department at Temple University in Pennsylvania, has studied yawning and said that the contagiousness is the part we know the least about.\n\nOne hypothesis is that the phenomenon came about when ancestral humans lived in troops, and it was important for them to wake up at the same time. Yawning may have been a way for them to communicate the level of alertness among different group members, Baenninger said.\n\nToday, contagious yawning is just the result of evolution, an instinctive action, Baenninger said.\n\nThough other creatures yawn - including dogs, cats and even snakes - contagious yawning is a "purely human occurrence," Broughton said. It begins around age 2.\n\nBaenninger and his students conducted a study to see if the contagion works between species. The students went to the zoo to observe whether humans would yawn when the animals did. A few people yawned in response to a lion's yawn, but the lion never replicated the humans' behavior, Baenninger said.\n\nThere is some evidence that when one ape yawns, others will too, the professor said.\n\nBroughton said it's not clear what causes yawns. He defined yawning as "slow, involuntary gaping movements of the mouth," and said the word is derived from the Old English word ganien, which means "to gape."\n\nSpontaneous yawning begins in the embryonic stage, so it is not learned behavior, Broughton said.\n\nThe idea of a fetus yawning while in the womb goes along with the notion of the action being a way to prepare for something, Baenninger said.\n\nYawning appears to be associated with sleepiness, though the idea that it has to do with boredom is not necessarily true, Broughton said. It's an unconscious effort to keep your alertness level elevated, Baenninger said.\n\n"I'm a professor. All professors are used to having students yawn at them," Baenninger said. But the yawns are an attempt to stay awake, rather than an affront, he said.\n\nA few notions about why we yawn have been debunked: "Because breathing takes in oxygen and removes carbon dioxide, theories in the past about why we yawn centered on the assumption that it was a reflex in response to low oxygen or high carbon dioxide levels," writes Dr. Robert H. Shmerling, an associate physician at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and an associate professor at Harvard Medical School.\n\n"This theory lost favor

How do you pass a life ins. exam when all of the questions seem like they are trick questions?

This belongs in "education - other" or in a business category, not "special education."\n\nThat being said... the questions are not "trick." They are either looking for your factual knowledge, or your ability to answer based on the insurance business philosophy. For example, when taking the New Mexico General Knowledge Teacher Exam, you must select the "politically correct" answers, not the ones from your college textbooks or personal opinion (e.g. "What does this painting represent?").  Good luck!

What job opportunities are there for an ex-Navy Fire controlman with a degree in computer information systems?

Get out the yellow pages and call companies in your field and ask if you can fax over your resume and to who's attention. You can follow up in a week with a call to that person. Take a look at your resume. Is it full of gobbledegook about you are looking for a meaningful job or discusses your character instead of what work you can do? Employers want to see a specific job objective like to find a sales trainee position where I can use my strong interpersonal skills. Stuff about finding a meaningful job goes in the garbage esp if you can't say what kind of job you are looking for. You should also be telling everyone you knows including relatives that you are looking for a job. Also apply for civil service jobs

It depends, do the feelings such as the 'knot in your stomach', come from a curiosity to explore the beautiful familiarities of your bodies, or does it seem to stem from an emotional, love, reaction.\nI personally experienced my first same sex encounter when I was 19 years old. I am now 44. I had several since. I do not consider myself bisexual or homosexual. I consider myself straight, because I could not fall 'in love' with another woman. I couldn't see myself 'marrying' another woman either. What I did have were sensual experiences with women friends. Listen to your head, your heart. Are you merely appreciating this girl's beauty, and are fantasizing sharing intimacy or do your feelings run more deep.


can you realy loose weight fast by sweating for a long time?

Yeah, I heard on TV yesterday that Nascar drivers have been known to lose 10 pound during a race because its so hot and they sweat it out. But talk about dangerous! You don't want to try and sweat your weight away. Unfortunately the only way to do it is through the hard work of diet and exercises. No miracle pills.


job vacancy as doctor/ teacher in chinese medical universities?

This would be difficult as the Chinese are not very open to foreigners.  I knew a Congolese doctor work at Zhongshan Hospital in Guangzhou, who was the most intelligent guy I ever met, but he could not renew his contact because the Chinese he was looking after did not want to consult a black doctor.\nCount on at least tens years study of Chinese characters so that you are able to write a basic prescription.\nTry asking on http://groups.yahoo.com/group/teflchinalife-UNMODERATED/ for some other expert expat opinions.
