What is the approximate number of craters on the moon?

There are an unlimited amount of craters on the Moon. In fact, the Moon continues to be hit everyday. This is especially true when we experience a meteor shower down here on Earth. A meteor shower occurs when the Earth intercepts an orbit of a comet that has debris in it. Since the Moon also intercepts this debris, those cometary particles cause impact creaters on the Moon because it has no atmosphere to stop the particles that look like shooting stars in our sky. When the Apollo crews returned with lunar samples and they were studied under a microscope, there were abundant microscopic craters in those samples. The largest craters can be several hundreds of miles wide. In fact the "Man on the Moon's" eyes are both ancient (4+ billion year ago) craters that filled up with lava.

what are the physical symptoms of depression?

Well, a coworker suggested that I might be falling into a light state of depression. When I asked her why she said that. She said it is because she has noticed that I don't "fix up" anymore and I hardly ever smile anymore. She said she could tell that I don't care to be around people like I use to. When I thought about the things she was saying, I realized that she was right. I have been hurt and very disappointed within the past year or so. And now, I found myself at the point where I think negatively almost all the time. It's like I really don't have the energy or the drive to do anything besides go to work (and some mornings, I literally have to force myself to get dressed to go to work). I've just been down in the dumps. Do any of your symptoms sound like mine. No, I haven't been to a doctor and got his diagnosis, but I am pretty sure that it is depression. I seem to cry a whole lot and get bothered very easily. I am hoping that this thing will pass on its on without me having to seek any professional help. Maybe we could keep in touch and try to encourage each other through this. If you need to talk to someone, don't hesitate to contact me: clearlovepink@yahoo.com.


Why are people racist against people who are of the muslim religion?

Fear and ignorance is the root of most discrimination.  \n\nBTW you can not be racist based on a religion.  Racism means you are biased against people of a certain race.  It would be racist if someone thinks that all Arabs are terrorists.  It is religious discrimination if you think that everyone going to a mosque is a terrorist.

my teenager earned $740 last year.  $9 was withheld in federal taxes.  Must he file a return?

No, your teenager *probably* doesn't need to file a return. However, you could go to the IRS website (see link below) and file for free through the Free File Alliance. This would *probably* allow him to get back his $9, and it's good practice (better to start learning about taxes before he needs to, rather than waiting until it's too late).


Mortgage Payments : Paying Biweekly Or Lumpsome an Extra Payment once Yrly?

Saving money (i.e. paying less interest to a bank) is never a disadvantage.  If you can afford to pay bi-weekly I select this method you will save additional interest.  If you simply make one payment extra per year you will save interest and shorten your mortgage length but it will be slightly less empactful than a bi-weekly payment plan.

How to choose a good guy to go are with?

the best way to find a guy is for him to like you more than you like him. what i mean by this is he be falling for you then you be falling for him! Think of the movie or novel The Notebook (if you seen it!) the guy likes the girl and the girl isn't interested in him at first and then they both fall in love with each other. so that is the true love that i beleive in! and it also depends on what sort of person your looking for! just be true to your heart!!!!! romantic guys aren't always the best!!

how does life insurance commission work?

That depends. Assuming your company annualizes your commissions, meaning they pay your entire first-year commission upfront, here's how you figure it. Multiply the monthly premium by 12, ($100 x 12 = $1200) then multiply that subtotal by 80%, or .8, for a total first-year commission (FYC) of $960. \n\nIf they don't annualize your commissions, then you'll probably get 80% of the monthly premium each month for the first 12 months. I say probably because if you broker out the policy, some companies have monthly minimums they require before they'll mail you a check. You'll still earn all your money, but you may have to wait a couple of months until you accumulate the minimum. For example, I use a brokerage that will not send a check for less than $50, so if I earn $35  per month, I'll have to wait until the second month before I get my $70.\n\nAlso, please read my blog about insurance agencies so you have a better idea of how it all works, at newlifeagent.blogspot.com. Feel free to share it with others, and please let me know what you think.\n\nBest of luck, and good prospecting.


Why were "hippies" so "dangerous"? -Relate to "The Scarlet Letter"?

The Hippies believed in free love - in having sex with whoever they wanted to have it with. That attitude resulted in a lot of Hippies with STD's, but it also struck a blow to one of the basic morals of our society, namely you had to get married to have sex.\n\nThere was a lot of sex going on outside of marriage before the hippies, but they were the largest, most recent group in the US to advocate free love. They also advocated drug use. Our society frowned on that, too, unless it was alcohol.\n\nThe Puritans were in favor of marrying before you had sex, and they didn't do drugs.


Firstly, it is politically incorrect to refer to the native people of the north as "Eskimos." \nAlthough they have many names, they are most commonly called the Inuit.\n\nSecondly, who said anything about evolution stopping? The only reason that say "fish aren't walking up on beaches constantly" is that not every species evolves in the same way. Hence the idea of a "common ancestor" or "missing link."\n\nThirdly, as for evidence for evolution, look around at the various slight differences between species.\n(i.e. Black spruce and white spruce)

Try having an out-of-body experience to trigger sensory in your left Amygdala. My boyfriend's mom says that she can have these experiences at will, after doing a lot of reading on them. Apparently, all you do is meditation lying down and you can "sink through the sofa and right into the ground and beyond." My guess would be meditation to stimulate a part of the brain that runs on bliss. Or falling in love... or incorporating more seratonin into your body somehow


It sounds like crabs to me. I found this description at myDNA.com:\n\nCrab Lice \n  \nCrabs, or pubic lice, are tiny, barely visible parasites (scientific name Pthirus pubis) that live in the pubic area and cause itching. ("Lice" is plural; the singular is "louse"). Pubic lice are commonly called crabs because they are shorter and rounder than head lice and body lice, making them resemble crabs. They are usually found in the pubic hair, but can also be found in other body areas with short hair (eyelashes, eyebrows, armpits, mustache).Pubic LouseCopyright © 2005 Nucleus Communications, Inc.

I want to start a business and have some ideas but how do I get started on puting these ideas in motion?

Think of all your interests & ask yourself if any of those could be expanded into a business. For instance, do you like scrapbooking? Perhaps you could create scrapbooks for people that enjoy them but don't have the time or interest in putting them together. Just keep in mind...what's your expertise? what are your interests? what could you imagine yourself doing?\n\nThen, once you have some ideas, research, research, research. Check out the competition -- their business practices, pricing, customer service, etc. And also think about what you could offer to set yourself apart from these other companies.\n\nCheck the sources for some handy sites.\n\nPrior to investing your time, money & effort into a business name, it is strongly advised that comprehensive research be conducted to ensure that the name you're interested in is truly available. \n\nThis entails searching the pending & registered Federal and State trademark files as well as the US National Common-Law files. Then, if clear, you can decide if you would like to file for a Federal or a State trademark. \n\nResearch is needed to make sure your trade name is legally available, before opening, before expansion, before incorporation or before designing your logo. Similarities in sound, appearance and meaning affect you too!\n\nThere are 16+ million trade names in use in the United States. Similar names matter, if close in sound, appearance or meaning. Similar names in related classes, distribution channels and customer matter too. You are affected by Common Law use (14 million), State Trademarks (500,000) and Federal Trademarks (2 million).

can anyone recommend a great book for day trading?

I have a couple of suggestions, spend some time at the websites below and look up texts by John Murphy, he wrote the classics on trading and charting.  One of his texts, which I read):\nTechnical Analysis of the Financial Markets - John J. Murphy \n\nHere's another one I read & enjoyed:\nTechnical Analysis Explained - Martin Pring\n\nAn overview, which I read in French:\nTechnical Analysis from A to Z - Stephen B. Achelis \n\nThere are a number of texts involved in preparing for the CMT exam, see below link on MTA.  Just going through the effort of preparing for the CMT exam is a great learning experience.\n\nThere is also my own trading website link, last one in the list below.\n\nA final note, there is alot of learning aside from the technical analysis.  One friend of mine noted and many traders agreed: "you don't have to be smart to be a good trader, just disciplined."  Keep it in mind and good luck!


Who gets to be on the U.N. Security Council and why?

the security council was established after world war 2 and first met in 1946.  it is comprised of 5 permanent member nations:  the US, the UK, china, russia, and france;  and 10 non-permanent member nations that are elected by the general assembly for 2-year terms.\n\nobviously the permanent members were chosen because they were the victors in the 2nd world war.  this was because the purpose of the security council was to investigate and deal with situations that could cause international crises - things that could lead to war or developments that threatened the international peace.  \n\nthe 5 permanent members were regarded at the time as the most powerful nations and as such were the ones able to put serious weight behind the security council's resolutions.  i mean, if the members were chosen randomly and at some time, say, the security council happened to be made up of belgium, the federated states of micronesia, togo, french guyana and uzbekistan, NOBODY would take them seriously.  the reason for the permanent members was to address this weakness that was found in the UN's precursor, the "League of Nations".\n\nyou can find out a lot more about the security council at it's homepage:\nhttp://www.un.org/Docs/sc/

I am going out with a foreigner, but he is leaving back to his country.?

Spend more time to really know about him before you make that kind of decision, time do mean a good testing for both side to see this relationship is real or not...plus you maybe still too young or have lot of other time to see more people or more things in a more mature view later time.\n\nMost important is how your parents think? try to seek their advice, try to understand what they say to you is reasonable or not. As it is surely TOO risky for you that so young and have to follow this man to another country...as what may happen if things not work out well? that will be a big price to pay not mention may effect your study and future as well.\n\nHope you find your answer very soon then :)

I cannot speak for most of the women out here, but what i like is a guys personality and they have to have a good careing heart. Maturity also plays a factor. The way they look and dress is not that all important, you have some people that are less fortunate than others. Hey some of the women are not up to par themselves. That's basically what i look for. Even if they are less fortunate, still i like a man thats very clean about his hygiene. They also have to show me respect, and treat me like the woman that i am. They also have to have a sense of humor.


Good Credit is like trust. It can be lost in a flash but takes a long time to build.  \n\nIf you have screwed up your credit - the only thing you really can  do is get everything back on track.  Every bill paid, and stop being late.  Then just keep on track for the rest of your life.  \n\nover the years your credit will recover and then start to become better and better.  The best thing for growing credit is time.  So keep all your oldest cards and pay them off but DON'T close them.  Keep them open because they are a record of how long you have had your credit.  If you remain in good standing with a credit card company that you opened say when you were 20 - and then you have it till your 40 - you will have 20 years worth of history with them - that is a good thing!! even if you don't use it all the time.   Just keep it open always.\nGood luck with it.

Mark Antony hunted for Cicero most viciously among the proscribed. Many men fell bravely, with many stories of bravery and virtue according to historical accounts. One victim turned out to be the tribune Salvius, who, after siding with Antony, moved his support directly and fully to Cicero. Salvius held a dinner party for his friends because he knew he would not be around for long and wished to have one last gathering to say goodbye. The legionaries burst into the party and beheaded Salvius in front of his friends.\n\nCicero was viewed with pity by many, and many claimed not to have seen him. He fled, but was caught at one of his villas after going to retrieve money. He fled by the coast of the nearby villa. When the executioners arrived, his slaves said they did not see him, yet a dependent of Clodius said otherwise. His last words were said to have been "there is nothing proper about what you are doing, soldier, but do try to kill me properly." He was decapitated by his pursuers on December 7, 43 BC; his head and hands were displayed on the Rostra in the Forum Romanum according to the tradition of Marius and Sulla, both of whom had displayed the heads of their enemies in the Forum. He was the only victim of the Triumvirate's proscriptions to have been so displayed after death. According to Cassius Dio (often mistakenly attributed to Plutarch), Antony's wife Fulvia took Cicero's head, pulled out his tongue, and jabbed the tongue repeatedly with her hairpin, taking a final revenge against Cicero's power of speech.\n\n\nHope this is what you were looking for.  \n\n*s*

RF Advantages:\n1. Not line of sight \n2. Not blocked by common materials: can penetrate most solids and pass through walls \n3. Longer range \n4. Not light sensitive \nNot as sensitive to weather/environmental conditions\n\n\n\nRF Disadvantages:\n1. Interference: communication devices using similar frequencies - wireless phones, scanners, wrist radios and personal locators can interfere with transmission \n2. Lack of security: easier to "eavesdrop" on transmissions since signals are spread out in space rather than confined to a wire \n3. Higher cost than infrared \n4. Federal Communications Commission(FCC) licenses required for some products \n5. Lower speed: data rate transmission is lower than wired and infrared transmission

A mountain is usually produced by the movement of lithospheric plates, either orogenic movement or epeirogenic movement. The compressional forces, isostatic uplift and intrusion of igneous matter forces surface rock upwards, creating a landform higher than the surrounding features. The height of the feature makes it either a hill or, if higher and steeper, a mountain. The absolute heights of features termed mountains and hills vary greatly according to an area's topography. The major mountains tend to occur in long linear arcs, indicating tectonic plate boundaries and activity. Mountain creation tends to occur in discrete periods, each referred to as an orogeny. The orogeny may last millions of years, and the uplifted region is being eroded away, producing valley-and-peak topography, even while the uplift is taking place. Two types of mountain are formed depending on how the rock reacts to the tectonic forces – block mountains or fold mountains.\n\nThe compressional forces in continental collisions may cause the compressed region to thicken, so the upper surface is forced upwards. In order to balance the weight, much of the compressed rock is forced downwards, producing deep "mountain roots". Mountains therefore form downwards as well as upwards (see isostasy). However, in some continental collisions part of one continent may simply override part of the other, crumpling in the process.\n\nSome isolated mountains were produced by volcanoes, including many apparently small islands that reach a great height above the ocean floor.\n\nBlock mountains are created when large areas are widely broken up by faults creating large vertical displacements. The uplifted blocks are block mountains or horsts. The intervening dropped blocks are termed graben: these can be small or form extensive rift valley systems. This form of landscape can be seen in East Africa, the Vosges, the Basin and Range province of Western North America and the Rhine valley.\n\nWhere rock does not fault it folds, either symmetrically or asymmetrically. The upfolds are anticlines and the downfolds are synclines; in asymmetric folding there may also be recumbent and overturned folds. The Jura mountains are an example of folding. Over time, erosion can bring about an inversion of relief: the soft upthrust rock is worn away so the anticlines are actually lower than the tougher, more compressed rock of the synclines.


what kind of romantic gift can i make for my boyfriend?

buy a clay flower pot from a craft store and paint it a solid color and then decorate it with either hearts or quotes or key words from special times you shared together- then buy some flower foam (also from the craft store) and stuff it in the pot- cover the foam with tissue paper or moss- Then bake him his favorite cookies and bake them with popsicle sticks in them- when they are done, you could glue fake leaves on the sticks so that the cookies look like flowers with leaves (I guess you could even paint the popsicle sticks green with something that is safe to ingest- food coloring?)- when you're done you have a pot of cookie flowers!


Can not paying your medical bills affect your credit rating in North Carolina? What else can it affect?

Yes, it can affect your credit rating if the unpaid bills are reported to one of the credit reporting agencies. A poor credit rating can affect your ability to obtain further credit, and can affect your ability to obtain some jobs where your creditworthiness may be a factor in assessing your reliability for a job. A bad credit rating can also make it more difficult for you to obtain insurance or you may pay higher rates (happens for car insurance, for example). \n\nIf you are having difficulty with debt consider talking to a debt counselor.

My friend's electrophoresis exam result is AFP is 12.4 ng/ml. He has HepaB.Is this cancer?

Alpha -1-Fetoprotein (AFP) is a blood protein normally found in the fetus and in infants. The exact function of AFP is not known but because the structure is similar to albumin which is the most common protein in an adults blood they are thought to have similar functions which is to transport various substances around the body. As we age, we make less and less AFP. \nIn the adult AFP is a non-specific marker for several types of cancer. It is most often elevated in liver cancer and is used as a marker for hepatocellular cancinoma. Usually an AFP of above 1000 ng/ml is highly suggestive of liver cancer. The normal range is 0-20 ng/ml.\nThe problem is that AFP is not always elevated. In patients from high-incidence populations such as blacks from Africa or native Chinese 80-90% of patients will have elevated AFP with liver cancer. However only 50-70% of low-incidence patients such as Europeans or North Americans will have elevated AFP with liver cancer. So will it is good news that your friend has normal AFP, this can not be used to completely rule out cancer.\nAlso keep in mind that while AFP is most closely associated with liver cancer (and I assume this is why the test was done) if they were looking for some other type of cancer the sensitivity and specificity will be different for different types of cancer.

Everyone: How can you deal with fears that just seem to be there all the time?

I'm going through the same thing ... fear in general that something horrible will happen to my children. Poor little guys, I rarely let them out of my sight and I know that's not healthy for them ... I've tried everything from counseling to meds, even stopped watching the news and reading the paper because of all the horrible things that happen. Nothing worked. So this is a little out-there, but it's what I do ... it works for me.\nMy grandma, whom I treasured, passed away 2 years ago. I know she's in Heaven watching over me and the kids, so when it gets really bad, I just say "hey Maw, hang on to this (the fear) for me for a while, will ya? It' a heavy burden and I can't handle it on my own."    Not sure how, but she always manages to make me feel better ... even now. Maybe you can try asking for help from Above too ... and just remember: Change the things you can , accept the things you can't, and pray for the wisdom to know the difference. Good luck!

Where can i learn to play tennis without making a fool of my self in Portland?

First, I'd suggest any club that has group classes. Not only is this cheaper than private lessons, but you can learn from others and also develop some practice partners.\nIf you are near the Lloyd Center, I'd suggest the Portland Tennis Center, next to Benson High. Otherwise, any of the numerous tennis clubs in town should have classes available. Just call one near you and ask about their schedule and prices.

Who was the only NBA (former) player who's father made more than him?

I'm guessing Bill Laimbeer... I don't know exactly what his father did for a living, but I remember hearing sometime during his career that his father was very wealthy, and actually did make more than his NBA son.

what indirect evidence do geologists use to study the structure of the earth?

carbonates gives a good answer - and as he says the most used tool for determining the cross-sectional structure of the Earth is seismic information recorded from earthquakes. If the earthquake is of sufficient magnitude it's energy will travel right through the Earth. Measuring arrival times at various seismographs around the world allows geologists/geophyiscists to determine major boundaries within the Earth. See: http://quake.wr.usgs.gov/research/seismology/ for some good examples,explanations and related topics. More good info on this topic at: http://www.seismo.unr.edu/ftp/pub/louie/class/100/interior.html\n\n\nAnother tool used to study the interior of the Earth is the orbit of the planet. Wobbles and variations tell us about the internal distribution of mass in the planet. See http://www.geo.ucalgary.ca/~wu/Goph681/EarthRotation.pdf for an example of the mathematics involved in dealing with Earth's orbit!


When I was a baby I had the same problem with my right foot and wore special shoes that were bolted to a special board that turned my foot the right way after about a year of wear. Ask your doctor for alternatives to surgery if you aren't comfortable with your 6 year old having surgery. There should be plenty of alternatives.


Difference between Mobility and desktop graphics cards?

The Mobility X1600 is essentially the same as its desktop counterpart and has the following features:\n\n12 Pixel Pipes\n5 Vertex Pipes\n4 Texture Units\n4 Render Back-Ends\n128 Max. Threads\nCore clock: 470\nMemory clock: 470\n\nThe primary difference here is that the desktop card is clocked slightly higher with a core clock of 580MHz and a memory clock at 780MHz.

Where do they talk about titheing in the new testament?

Matt. 23: 23 \n23 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and canise• and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.\n\nLuke 11: 42 \n42 But woe unto you, Pharisees! for ye tithe mint and rue and all manner of herbs, and pass over judgment and the love of God: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.\n\nLuke 18: 12 \n12 I fast• twice in the week, I give tithes of all that I possess•.\n\nHeb. 7: 5 \n5 And verily they that are of the sons of Levi, who receive the office of the priesthood, have a commandment to take tithes of the people according to the law, that is, of their brethren, though they come out of the loins of Abraham:\n\nHeb. 7: 6 \n6 But he whose descent is not counted from them received tithes of Abraham, and blessed him that had the promises.\n\nHeb. 7: 8 \n8 And here men that die receive tithes; but there he receiveth them, of whom it is witnessed that he liveth.\n\nHeb. 7: 9 \n9 And as I may so say, Levi also, who receiveth tithes, payed tithes in Abraham.

When you move to a different time zone, are you cumulatively losing/gaining hours from/to your life?

The purpose of different time zones is so that when it is noon, the sun will be roughly overhead. We do not need to use time zones. It is just convention. Time zones and standard time only became necessary when the railroads arrived, and people started to worry about schedules.\n\nYou are not losing or gaining hours from your life directly when you move to a different time zone of course. You might be adding or subtracting stresses and other factors from your life that might have some indirect effect on the length of your life. And of course, travel and moving are not completely without risk.


Coal is neither a rock or a mineral... It is an ore, because:\n\nA mineral is not formed by living processes, which means it is not made of dead or once living things.  That eliminates coal from being a mineral because it is formed from dead animals and plants.


I'm a teen. I want to get involved in an AMC trail crew, or some type of outdoor work. How do I do that?

If you don't care about money, the SCA is hard to beat. Their voluteers work in national parks, national forests and wilderness areas. They take teens as young as 15, too.\n\nThe AMC site seems to have changed recently; two of the first four Google hits for [AMC trail crew] are duds.


Can anybody help me find addresses of importers of Cordyceps sinensis in America, Japan, Taiwan, etc..?

The botanical name I usually see is 'Cordyceps mycelium' and I think that is a tamed strain of Cordyceps sinensis, which grows wild. Here are some companies that offer Cordyceps, or Dong Chong Xia Cao.  You will have to clarify the botanical name with them.\n\nA highly respected company that specializes in mushroom extracts is MycoHerb.  They do some impressive work with mushrooms, offering them alone or in mushroom formulae.  A distributor for them is Kan Herb Company. \n\nYou may want to try May Way Herbs, they are very reputable importers, based in California and importing from China and Taiwan.\n\nThe largest seller of Chinese herbs is Crane Herbs, and they offer a broad product range to practitioners. \n\nA very good Japanese herbal company (Kampo) is Honso USA, importing from Japan (I am not sure if they sell the herb you are looking for).  \n\nOthers that sell Cordyceps include, Spring Wind Herbs, Health Concerns and KPC Herbs.\n\nI have included direct links for some of the places I mention, and Acupuncture.edu's resource page will link to the rest.  Addresses can be retrieved from their websites.

What is the functions for the nucleus of an animal cell?

The nucleus of an animal cell contains the DNA, a complete bluprint for creating an entire animal or when differentiated for creating specific tissue types.  The many genes in the nucleus could be pictured as a set of many ladders of various lenghts (rungs).  When the cell divides, half of each ladder collects in each new cell and regrows the missing halves.  The two halves are not identical, much like sawing the rungs of a real ladder on either side of the center and having rungs made of combinations of only four materials.  Actually, DNA is more like a twisted ladder, a helix.

If I were to come to your town, what would you bring me to do and see?


Is this a a hardware problem and is there a solution?

You may also want to try opening the computer and cleaning (carefully) all the parts, cards, fans, etc. With a computer that old, it's probably collected a bunch of dust and dirt inside that could cause it to overheat and run slowly.\n\nMy Dell was about 3 years old, and I had never cleaned it out. It started acting funny, and after I cleaned it, it seemed to work fine.\n\nDefinitely try that if you have never cleaned out its insides before. If you have tried that, then it may be your hard drive like the previous answerer said.


Who invented the Automated Teller Machine (ATM) and in what year?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_teller_machine\n\n\nThe world's first ATM was developed by De La Rue and installed in Enfield Town in North London on June 27, 1967 by Barclays Bank. This instance of the invention is credited to John Shepherd-Barron, although Luther George Simjian registered patents in New York, USA in the 1930s and Donald Wetzel and two other engineers from Docutel registered a patent on June 4, 1973. Shepherd-Barron was awarded an OBE in the 2005 New Year's Honours.

is it hard to study nursing in italian language?

I’m sorry but there “aint” too many options for an English speaking student.\n\nIf you don’t speak Italian, you will have to study at one of the few private universities in Italy.  Bocconi in Milan only offers business classes.  However, many American universities have campuses in Italy where classes are held for credit in American universities.\n\nIf you just want to study Italian, there are two Italian universities where the language is taught.  Those two universities are in Perugia and Siena.


Judaism and Christianity recognize seven archangels: Raphael, Gabriel, Michael, Uriel and three others whose names are uncertain - a source of debate by theologians for centuries. They are thought of to be three from the following list of possible candidates: Raziel, Remiel, Sariel, Metatron, Anael, Raguil, Barakiel, Barbiel, Chamael, Jophiel, Zadkiel, Jeduhiel, Simael, Zaphiel, and Aniel.


Whats a better b-day present..Gold necklace, white gold necklace, silver necklace??

The difference between yellow gold or white gold (or silver) is colour. There is not too much difference between white gold, silver, or platinum for that matter. It all comes down to price and prestige. The more you spend, the easier to show off with pride.\n\nOf course, the best place to start is in her own jewellery collection. Some people don't like the look of yellow gold on themselves. Others say the same of silver. \n\nIf you don't have access to her jewellery collection, look at what she wears on a regular basis. Buy something that will match a piece she already wears.\n\nDon't forget that you can add semi-precious gemstones to jewellery to add to its sparkle and visual appeal. See sources for jewellery of this type.

If you are in love with your mate and he or she wanted to try anal sex what should i do?

Honey, just because you are in love doesnt mean you should try anything he wants to try.  He needs to understand that its your body, not his.  If you are uneasy about it, then dont do it, cuz that type of sex needs complete relaxation, trust, and lubrication.  He needs to be gentle, and quite frankly, if you cannot relax, then I would suggest against it. Either way, it's your choice and if you say no, then tell  him to stop bothering you about it.

Azazel in Leviticus\nLeviticus 16:8 tells that the Lord ordered his high priest, Aaron, to 'place lots upon the two goats, one marked for the Lord and the other marked for Azazel' on the Jewish Day of Atonement. The goat designated by lot for the Lord is to be used as a sin offering, while the goat designated for Azazel "shall be left standing alive before the Lord, to make expiation with it and to send it off to the wilderness for Azazel." (Lev 16:10) Aaron was to "lay both his hands upon the head of the live goat and confess over it all the iniquities and transgressions of the Israelites, whatever their sins, putting them on the head of the goat; and it shall be sent off to the wilderness through a designated an. Thus the goat shall carry on it all their iniquities to an inaccessible region; and the goat shall be set free in the wilderness." (Lev 16:21-22) Leviticus also says that "He who set the Azazel-goat free shall wash his clothes and bathe his body in water; after that he may reenter the camp." (16:26) \n\n\nFrom this passage in Leviticus, it would seem that Azazel is conceived of as a personal being, as lots were drawn for the Lord and for him. Also, Leviticus mentions that Azazel lives in the wilderness, as do the Se'irim. Because of this ritual, Azazel is known as the "scapegoat." The goat that is sent to Azazel is not as a sacrifice, but as a symbol that there is no longer any unexpiated guilt. Both the goat and the man who leads away the goat are unclean, and the only way the man can reenter the camp is by washing his clothes and bathing. \n\nAzazel in the Apocalypse of Abraham\nIn the Apocalypse of Abraham, Azazel is portrayed as an unclean bird which came down upon the sacrifice which Abraham prepared. This is in reference to Genesis 15:11 "Birds of prey came down upon the carcasses, and Abram drove them away." \n\n"And the unclean bird spoke to me and said, 'What are you doing, Abraham, on the holy heights, where no one eats of drinks, nor is there upon them food for men. But these all will be consumed by fire and ascend to the height, they will destroy you.' And it came to pass when I saw the bird speaking I said this to the angel: 'What is this, my lord?' And he said, 'This is disgrace, this is Azazel!' And he said to him, 'Shame on you Azazel! For Abraham's portion is in heaven, and yours is on earth, for you have selected here, (and) become enamored of the dwelling place of your blemish. Therefore the Eternal Ruler, the Mighty One, has given you a dwelling on earth. Through you the all-evil spirit (is) a liar, and through you (are) wrath and trials on the generations of men who live impiously." \n- Apocalypse of Abraham 13:4-9\nThe Apocalypse of Abraham also associates Azazel with Hell. Abraham says to him "May you be the firebrand of the furnace of the earth! Go, Azazel, into the untrodden parts of the earth. For your heritage is over those who are with you" (14:5-6) There is also the idea that God's heritage (the created world) is largely under the dominion of evil. It is "shared with Azazel" (20:5) Azazel is also identified with the serpent which tempted Eve. His form is described as a dragon with "hands and feet like a man's, on his back six wings on the right and six on the left." (23:7) \n\nFinally, the Apocalypse of Abraham says that the wicked will "putrefy in the belly of the crafty worm Azazel, and be burned by the fire of Azazel's tongue." (31:5) Here again, there is another reference to Azazel as being Hell.

Is it legal for a company to buy a domain that I was going to purchase?

Perfectly legal.  Your intermediatary should not have taken so long to have secured the site in this fast-paced world.  Imagine that you wanted the last hot product from the store shelf, but it took you three days to reach for it; you'd probably miss out.  However, the fact that another 'phantom' company mysteriously snatched up the exact same address as you while iPowerWeb was 'securing' the purchase of your site seems incredibly convienient, that's just my take.


The time between you cntact the HIV Infection and the developemnt of Aids varies between individuals. About 50% develop Aids within 10 years of infection but may be still more years.   You are infected but the symptoms develop after many years. By the time you will be infecting the people. Progression of the disease is affected by age at HIV infection, mode of transmission and genetic factors.

Whats a good way to tell a guy you like him.  Straight up or what?

you shouldn't tell him unless you know for sure he likes you too. he might get scared and it would be weird afterwards if he doesn't like you back.


I totally agree with you, I think that's a really good point. Unfortunately, I can't say without being a bit of a hypocrite because I eat fish, shellfish, eggs and other stuff. I think that's an aim to have in your life, but I don't know if I'll ever get there. I don't think about it much, I stopped eating meat and I feel fine and dandy that way, but I do miss fish when I spend a lot of time without eating it. Everybody is different and we should respect one another, but I agree that's the way to go.


I believe stress is the source of 75 percent of all our problems and a major epidemic in people's lives. Finding ways to control stress is vital, because if you don't control stress, it will control you.\n\nIf you want to reduce your stress level and live a happier and healthier life, use the physical and emotional stress relief techniques outlined below. \n\nPhysical Relief \n - Say No\nThe pressure to perform in today's world is intense. As a result, people work long hours and take on much more than they can bear. They juggle multiple roles throughout the day and sacrifice sleep or personal time just so they can get everything done. Saying "no" to a demand is out of the question, resulting in increased stress, both at work and at home. \n\n - Listen to Your Body \nListening to your body helps you take control of your stress because you become aware of the signals your body gives you regarding comfort and discomfort.\n\n- Communicate With Your Heart\nYour heart has an important job, pumping 2,000 gallons of blood throughout your body each day. This merits the heart receiving your attention. To reduce emotional stress your heart needs encouragement, appreciation, and love.\n\n- Clear Out the Past Clutter\nJust as you do a spring cleaning of your house, you should also do a spring cleaning of your heart to wipe away the old memories and messages that are causing you stress. This is important, because the way we fell from moment to moment, the way we behave, and the actions we take are all conditioned to how we feel inside.


How can you reduce the risk of getting the disease?

WASH YOUR HANDS CONSTANTLY!!! Like when you come back from like the supermarket or someplace like that. Don't touch handles on like bathrooms (wear gloves if nesassary). These are some of the most highly places for getting sicknesses. Supermarket shopping carts are the most germ ridden things ever. Be careful and stay clean.:)

Did you just listen to G.W. Bush's address?  If so, what did you think about it ?

I liked many of the things he stated, such as . . . . . . \n\nTax relief in rate reductions, elimination of the marriage penalty and increasing child credits, the ending of double taxation of dividends.  That these things will assist business (particularly small and middle sized business) will help all people in particular the young seeking jobs.\n\nMaintaining the line on discretionary spending (personally I believe that discretionary spending should be done away with).\n\nAffordable high quality health is a laudable goal but one tough to implement.  The controversy about high medical costs due to doctor possible liability is true but not in the way most people think about it.  That is, because of the possibility of being sued for misdiagnosis, doctors order far more tests and more complex tests than are usually required.  Suing a doctor to recover costs and cover damage is right and should be supported, but awarding punitive damages does not benefit anyone.  If doctors (or hospitals) need to be penalized for bad treatment, then the course is for the State medical associations to remove their licenses.  This does not hurt the good doctor through increased insurance costs which are passed on to the patient or result in reduced medical services.\n\nMost importantly was his reference to energy independence for our country.  One way to do this is to increase the use of coal.  Technologies exist today which will make such use non-harming to the environment.  Coal reserves within our borders exceed 500 years of heavy use.  Hydrogen is another approach which has existing technology for use right now.  Distribution is one of the largest problem  However, such could be started in the agriculture industry by producing hydrogen from agricultural biomass and distributing it right back into agriculture production through the coops.\n\nThere are many other elements within the State of the union which are solid positive proposals, but getting them done is the challenge.  All has to move through congress and that is like walking in mud.  \n\nThere is the added problem of the federal government being involved with things it shouldn’t be involved in.  An example is education.  There is no delegated power in the Constitution for the federal government to be involved in education in any manner.  If it was not so involved the federal budget could be reduce in major ways.  Education would not suffer.  Since the federal government has been involved in education (primarily starting in the Carter years) education results have decreased throughout the country.  Education is a local job and the federal government has no business being in it.\n\nGetting things done, in general, is a local responsibility except in a few areas of responsibilities delegated to the federal government (re: U.S. Constitution Article 1, Section 8, Clauses 1 through18).  \n\nOver all it was a good speech, but making it happen is doubtful.

Why is the elementry school called grade school? all schools have grades?

From the following definitions I found elementary schools picked up the phrase grade schools because the childrens work was graded, i.e. evaluated and assessed.\n\ngrade (n.)  \n1511, from Fr. grade "grade, degree," from L. gradus "step, degree," replacing M.E. gree "step, degree in a series," from O.Fr. grei "step," from L. gradus, related to gradi "to walk, step, go," from PIE *ghredh- (cf. Lith. gridiju "to go, wander," O.C.S. gredo "to come," O.Ir. in-greinn "he pursues," and second element in congress, progress, etc.). The verb is 1659, from the noun. Railway sense is from 1835. Meaning "division of a school curriculum equivalent to one year" is from 1835; that of "letter-mark indicating assessment of a student's work" is from 1886. \n\n\ngrammar  \n1176, gramarye, from O.Fr. grammaire "learning," especially Latin and philology, from L. grammatica, from Gk. grammatike tekhne "art of letters," with a sense of both philology and literature in the broadest sense, from gramma "letter," from stem of graphein "to draw or write." Restriction to "rules of language" is a post-classical development, but as this type of study was until 16c. limited to Latin, M.E. gramarye also came to mean "learning in general, knowledge peculiar to the learned classes" (c.1320), which included astrology and magic; hence the secondary meaning of "occult knowledge" (c.1470), which evolved in Scottish into glamour (q.v.). A grammar school (1387) was originally "a school in which the learned languages are grammatically taught" [Johnson, who also has grammaticaster "a mean verbal pedant"]. In U.S. (1860) the term was put to use in the graded system for "a school between primary and secondary, where English grammar is taught." \n\nAlso, when you look at the ancient (classic) educational process, which is now aone of many approached to homeschooling, :\n\nThe first years of schooling are called the "grammar stage" -- not because you spend four years doing English, but because these are the years in which the building blocks for all other learning are laid, just as grammar is the foundation for language.  In the elementary school years -- what we commonly think of as grades one through four -- the mind is ready to absorb information.  Children at this age actually find memorization fun.  So during this period, education involves not self-expression and self-discovery, but rather the learning of facts.  Rules of phonics and spelling, rules of grammar, poems, the vocabulary of foreign languages, the stories of history and literature, descriptions of plants and animals and the human body, the facts of mathematics -- the list goes on.  This information makes up the "grammar," or the basic building blocks, for the second stage of education. \n\nOnce the child hit 5th grade, education became more analitical, and therefore there was less 'grading' and more freedom of thoughts and ideas.\n\nSo to sum it up, The word grade school came from the original educational system, dating back to the greeks where a child learned (gathered most of thier knowledge) by 5th grade.. after that they spent their time analyzing this knowlege, and finally in the third stage they discusses and debated based on the knowledge they had learned and spent years analyzing.


my brothers scapula sticks out like wings. He is 18, and just lost a lot of weight. does anyone know why?

Either it's just because of the loss of weight (and all his bones are sticking out), or he might have some weakness in the serratus anterior muscle - the muscle which attaches the scapulas to the ribcage.

You could try updating to the newest version of the driver for your system prior to redoing it.\n\nGood Luck

How can immigrants afford to open thier own store if they were poor in thier own country.?

Most countries outside of the United States do not have the magnitude of opportunities for increasing ones income because here in the US we have three classes of people, Ultra Rich, Middle Class and Poor. Most third world countries have two class groups, Ultra wealthy and poor. This means that in the United States you have more people that can afford your goods or services. But your quetion was how do they do it here?\n\nFirst of all people that don't have much don't spend much. They save every penny that they earn. They don't beleve in credit, they pay cash for everything they have. If they don't have enough money to by what they need then they will save their money until they do. They will do without  luxury items like $5.00 expressos at Star Bucks. They don't feel like they need to be entertained every second of the day and are happy in company of family members.\n\nAlso unlike most American families they pool their resources. They are very tight nit and work together to acheive a common goal. they take every advantage of the educationl resources that our country has to offer. They are not worried that someone in the family will have more than they do. While most young American families spend 600 dollars a week for child care, Immigrant families have extended family members that will take care of the children while they work two or three jobs.\n\nIn observing the Asian culture you might wonder how they can afford such expensive homes, The truth is they can't except that 3 or 4 families will by a property together, They don't buy luxury items like furnture, curtins, luxurious carpets or paint to personalize the House. It is meerly an investment. When the property value goes up they sell, and now four families can buy another property. The cycle continues and they become very wealthy.


what is th edifference between string and stringbuffer in java?

Java provides the StringBuffer and String classes, and the String class is used to manipulate character strings that cannot be changed. Simply stated, objects of type String are read only and immutable. The StringBuffer class is used to represent characters that can be modified.\n\nThe significant performance difference between these two classes is that StringBuffer is faster than String when performing simple concatenations. In String manipulation code, character strings are routinely concatenated. Using the String class, concatenations are typically performed as follows:\n\n\n     String str = new String ("Stanford  ");\n     str += "Lost!!";\n\nIf you were to use StringBuffer to perform the same concatenation, you would need code that looks like this:\n\n\n     StringBuffer str = new StringBuffer ("Stanford ");\n     str.append("Lost!!");\n\nDevelopers usually assume that the first example above is more efficient because they think that the second example, which uses the append method for concatenation, is more costly than the first example, which uses the + operator to concatenate two String objects.\n\nThe + operator appears innocent, but the code generated produces some surprises. Using a StringBuffer for concatenation can in fact produce code that is significantly faster than using a String. To discover why this is the case, we must examine the generated bytecode from our two examples. The bytecode for the example using String looks like this:\n\n\n0 new #7 <Class java.lang.String>\n3 dup\n4 ldc #2 <String "Stanford ">\n6 invokespecial #12 <Method java.lang.String(java.lang.String)>\n9 astore_1\n10 new #8 <Class java.lang.StringBuffer>\n13 dup\n14 aload_1\n15 invokestatic #23 <Method java.lang.String valueOf(java.lang.Object)>\n18 invokespecial #13\n21 ldc #1 <String "Lost!!">\n23 invokevirtual #15 <Method java.lang.StringBuffer append(java.lang.String)>\n26 invokevirtual #22 <Method java.lang.String toString()>\n29 astore_1\n\nThe bytecode at locations 0 through 9 is executed for the first line of code, namely:\n\n\n     String str = new String("Stanford ");\n\nThen, the bytecode at location 10 through 29 is executed for the concatenation:\n\n\n     str += "Lost!!";\n\nThings get interesting here. The bytecode generated for the concatenation creates a StringBuffer object, then invokes its append method: the temporary StringBuffer object is created at location 10, and its append method is called at location 23. Because the String class is immutable, a StringBuffer must be used for concatenation.\n\nAfter the concatenation is performed on the StringBuffer object, it must be converted back into a String. This is done with the call to the toString method at location 26. This method creates a new String object from the temporary StringBuffer object. The creation of this temporary StringBuffer object and its subsequent conversion back into a String object are very expensive.\n\nIn summary, the two lines of code above result in the creation of three objects:\n\n   1. A String object at location 0\n   2. A StringBuffer object at location 10\n   3. A String object at location 26\n\nNow, let's look at the bytecode generated for the example using StringBuffer:\n\n\n0 new #8 <Class java.lang.StringBuffer>\n3 dup\n4 ldc #2 <String "Stanford ">\n6 invokespecial #13 <Method java.lang.StringBuffer(java.lang.String)>\n9 astore_1\n10 aload_1\n11 ldc #1 <String "Lost!!">\n13 invokevirtual #15 <Method java.lang.StringBuffer append(java.lang.String)>\n16 pop\n\nThe bytecode at locations 0 to 9 is executed for the first line of code:\n\n\n     StringBuffer str = new StringBuffer("Stanford ");\n\nThe bytecode at location 10 to 16 is then executed for the concatenation:\n\n\n     str.append("Lost!!");\n\nNotice that, as is the case in the first


Is a 'Star Wars' transporter' dreams possible to be a reaality?

I believe it will be possible. The first application of the development of such technology will be the transportation of mass amount of fluids, and solid materials from one place to another. Granted, these materials will probably be simple materials without complexed molecular structure but, it will be the place that other developement will continue from.\n  The technology is centries into the future if it is that soon. The general idea is simple. Breaking down atomic structure in a trasmitable format, transmitting, then reconstituting teh transmitted. It then is a matter of what atomic partical belongs on what part of the carrier wave of the radio/or microwave transmitter. Another additive to the  complexity, is actually getting the particals on the carrier wave. However, if modern modems can convert digital signals into anolog, and analog into digital signals, then other parts of a "transporter" is a matter of time.\nSide note on this: If it will require the power produced from anti-matter generators, then it should interest all that a few anti-matter atoms had been produced. It took more energy to produce those few anti-atoms then they could produce themselves, but it does illistrate that Star-Trek to Star Wars technologies are not entirely impossible.

How do I get past The Windows XP logon IF I don't know the password?

Disconnect the internet before doing this. \n\nwhile booting up your pc, press F2 or F8 or DEL depending on your BIOS. \n\nThen choose to enter "Safe Mode".\n\nOnce the winxp log on comes up, choose "Administrator". \n\nnormally there should be no password. If there is a password then only a person who created that password can unlock the PC. Else, reinstall the entire OS. \n\nOnce you are pass through the log on and once the computer starts up completely. \nGo to Control Panel - Users and remove or change YOUR password (the other users password, NOT ADMINISTRATOR)\n\nRestart and log on normally.

How do we define "MASS DESTRUCTION" ? Can't conventional weapons (bombs) be used to cause mass destruction ?

I believe a weapon of mass destruction is one that can yeild wide-spread devastation in a single blow.  You're right, 'conventional' weapons can produce simular effects, but only when several are deployed at once.  Further, a weapon of mass destruction tends to take advantage of scientific advancements which originated fairly recently in human history, such as nuclear fission, fusion, bioengineering and so on.  A single modern nuclear warhead can not only lay waste to an entire metropolian area, but can irradiate the soil and lierally spread radiation across the entire surface of the Earth; lierally 'mass' destruction.


someone once told me that christians can do whatever they want because jesus died for their sins. true?

There have been some good answers so far but let me add another perspective. When a person becomes a Christian, they become a different person with a new nature-the nature of God. With this new nature comes a whole new set of desires. A Christian wants what God wants. As someone once said, "if it pleases you to please God then you can do what you please." \n\nOf course there are times in the life of a Christian when we let our human desires over-rule what God wants. But when you do something wrong, which the Bible describes as sin, then a true Christian will immediately feel bad about it and repent. Repent means to change your thinking and thus your actions. So a Christian will immediately acknowledge it as sin, reject it, and receive God's forgiveness. Since Christ died for all of our sins, He thus secured God's forgiveness for us. Therefore, as Christians we are forgiven. \n\nHowever, this is NOT an excuse to keep on sinning. And as a true Christian you should not want to continue in a life of sin.  For additional info you might check out the chapter entitled Your Means of Exchange: The Cross-Forgiveness in the book, Introducing The New You.


I think Junior will make the chase this year, and probably get about 2 wins under his belt. Having Truex in his stable should probably make the team kick everything up a couple notches. Unfortunately, I don't think that will lead to a championship. I honestly believe Junior is going to make a better team owner than driver. Not saying he isn't a good driver, but he just doesn't seem to have some of the spark he had in '02 through '04. Still, he's got a good eye for talent and a feel for personnel matters, so I see his ownership stock being real strong.

how is a cost of living in South VietNam in the year 2006?

Cost of living is very inexpensive except for real estate. \n\nYou can easily live on the equivalent of $300/month. \n\n- A good seafood meal with friends and beers at a nice restaurant in Saigon will cost less than $10.\n\n- A 2-day hoilday I took in Ha Long Bay with my fiance' and her cousin cost me about $90 total. This included:\n\nBoat tour through bay\nKayak rental\nThree incredible seafood meals \nTwo hotels rooms on Cat Ba Island with view directly facing the bay\nHydrofoil ride back to Hai Phoung\nBus rides between Hanoi and Hai Phoung\n\n- High speed Internet access is available at rates cheaper tha in America. Internet cafe's charge about 10 cents/hour for usage.\n\nReal Estate prices had increase recently due to foreign investors buying property like crazy and inflating prices. Prices may cool off and drop this year.


Looking for a list of scholarships in my area Mt. Desert Maine, specific to a Criminal Justice major.?

One of the best things you could do would be to contact your local Police Station.  They will be happy to provide you with any scholarships they can find.  I suggest calling to make an appointment with someone in the Department.  They may even have one of their own.\n\nAlso, contact a member of the State Department of Corrections.  With the hightened threats to our nation, I am sure they can help you get into a Criminal Justice course at whatever SMTC became in South Portland.  I studied there for a year and they have a really good program.  Just make sure you like that major first.  I personally hated it, but at least I now understand that police seem like jerks sometimes because that means they will go home alive.

How far internet is helpful in knowledge sharing?

If you approach it in an organized way, it can be very helpful. However, one of the big things about the internet is that since anyone can post information, the validity of the information is always in question. A source like wikipedia where people can edit answers as new information becomes available (or when people post incorrect information) can be very useful as a starting point.\n\nUsing a search engine like Google, Yahoo, or AltaVista can provide a lot of good information, but you must be careful about your sources. Something posted by an accepted authority carries a lot more weight than something someone posta on their personal website.

Why Europeans exile historians who suspect the veracity (truth,validity) of holocaust? Is it thought freedom?

Because nothing can justify the holocaust. Many also believe that if something so horrid is justifiable then those who still believe in hard right politics (fascists) will rise again and take over and begin another holocaust/World War.\n\nAlso every country in Europe lost a lot of civilians, military, money, etc. due to the war. There is no reason why any country should allow themselves the humility of justifying the holocaust.

Should the Sacramento Kings of the NBA trade Peja Stojakovic?

No, then they'd have nobody!  The reason they stink is because they have key players injured - Bonzi Wells, Sharif-Raheem are out, plus Corliss Williamson.  They don't have a bench anymore!  Plus, they don't have Chris Webber either... so if they get rid of Peja, man, they'd REALLY be in trouble.  They need to get a player close to Artest as far as defensive ability goes, but getting rid of Peja would just make things worse.


did nicodemus write chapter for the bible that was rejected?

I am not sure if he was, but our current bible is missing several books.  Each of the 11 disciples wrote a book (all but Judas), but we only have 4.  Also, bear in mind that the Catholic Bible and Protestant Bible have different books.  However, although I am sure he probably wrote "something" about Christ, I can not say for sure it was a "book," and that his book was rejected.


What is the best way to repair your credit yourself?

In general - you shouldn't be maxing out your cards at all - it is a very bad habit to get into. Living on borrowed money isn't a wise idea. Credit cards are a tool. They should be used instead of cash so that you don't have to carry cash around with you. But it doesn't mean that you don't have the money when it comes time for that bill to be paid. \n\nIf you only charge what you KNOW you can afford to pay off - you will be safe and build a very good credit rating. Keeping a small balance is not a bad thing but - try and pay the majority of it off this way you don't have to pay interest on it.\n\nI have been through it. It took us 10 long years to get out of debt. We had over $57,000 in debt and very good credit though. We never missed payments but just seemed to be swamped with it. Be patient for the credit transfer deals that let you have the rate until your balance is paid in full. These are the ones you will want for the long haul. \n\nWe transfered to a few cards. one of them was the BEST - 0% until it was paid off! That was amazing but true. There was no limited time. then we also transfered onto a few cards with 3.99% interested until paid - Again no limited time. \n\nThis allowed us to pay MUCH MORE THAN THE MINIMUM.  paying the min will not help - it will usually get you worse off because you debt will grow usually from other purchases going onto it.  Just stop using the cards and pay them all off.  \n\nStay away from the Transfer offers that only give you a matter of months to pay. \n\nI just can't stress that enough.   cause you will end up having a huge percentage rate a year from now and then your debt will be compounding more than it ever has.  \n\nI am standing here today - debt free!!! Yes we paid off the entire $57,000 and it is all due to the stratigy above - never miss a payment and pay as much as you can towards the highest interest rates first. Minimum payments for the lowest rates. After a while you will see your debt come down, and your credit history improve.  We did it all on our own.

17.  At the time it seemed right but it did not last. Typical in youth relationships.\n\nYou want to be mature enough to handle the consequences of having sex.

From what I know...no one really knows how the majority of sponges to communicate. The hexactinellids sponges are syncytial and most scientists believe that have chemical communication. A hormone or something is given off by one sponge and picked up though the water it filters all through the body, and so all cells exposed receive the signal to release gametes.

depends on the year/player. A good place to check is ebay.

You might want to see if your local book/hobby store has one you can browse.


The string between the cans has to be stretched tight. When you speak into one can, the bottom of that can vibrates; this is converted into a change in the string tension and transmitted over the string to the other can; this, in turn, makes the bottom of the other tin can vibrate, resulting in sound waves.


My thumbs and fingers keep cracking/splitting at the sides of my fingernails - how do I prevent this?

Sounds like you need to moisterize your hands better. What I reccomend is getting some intense therapy lotion. And pair of gloves. After you take a bath/shower put the lotion on and then the pair of gloves. Wear overnight. My boyfriend has the same problem with his feet. This truely helps. And if it dosen't, call some nail salons to see what they reccomend. They usually have alot of experience with it comes to manacures and problems. All else fails go to a doctor.


how can i get my same old yahoo password if i have my secret answer?

Is it possible to file for income tax seperately if you are married? Pros? Cons?

If you are still living together you will have to file MFS (married filing seperately).  There are no tax advantages to doing it this way unless he owes back taxes, child support, or cheats on his taxes.  I would suggest keeping on your husband and filing together.  You cannot file single since you are married.  \n\nYou could file HOH if you have been seperated for more than six months and are caring 50 % or more for the children.

How long would you wait for the one that you thought was The One?

If you have to wait for "the one" you must ask yourself if he/she believes you too are "the one."\nThere are always always circumstances worth waiting for, but if your "the one" continues to not alter circumstances to desperately be with you in the same way you wish to be with them, you might need to re-evaluate your decision. If the person I knew was my one and only and was miles away.........and needed to find a way to financially or circumstancially find a way to make it to me.......yes I'd wait. If you are talking about waiting until your "the one" left his wife or her husband...........I'm so afraid you might wait and wait without ever gaining the results you hope for. Take a look at the whole picture first. Good luck!


how can i connect two pc's together directly?

1.) If you have a NIC in each PC, you can use a crossover cable.\n2.) If you have a NIC in each PC, you can use a switch (D-Link Dss+5 cost around $20). Use 2 cat5e cables and you are set. If you have later more PCs, you can hook them up as well.\n3.) LapLink or something like it works with a USB cable or a (Null Modem) parallel cable.

Often the board decides to change its prime lending rate to banks, which could affect overall borrowine and spending in the economy.

is smoking still allowed in prison?cad you use a calling card in prison?if not why?

The answer to both questions is that it depends on what State and which prison...in California, smoking is no longer permitted at any Correctional facility (as of July, 2005) and calling cards are NOT permitted, all inmate telephone calls must be collect calls. It's partly a security measure to make sure that the inmate is not calling people he shouldn't be calling, like co-defendants or victims, but mostly because that's how the contract that the California Dept. of Corrections awarded to MCI is written... a collect call, state to state, from a California prison costs 20 bucks for 15 minutes...the same call through MCI from a pay phone two blocks from the prison costs 7 dollars.

Mail him the letter.  Letters are great, because it's almost always easier to write something to someone,than to say it to their face, plus,how can he avoid the letter?


Why do bridges turn icy during cold snaps?

Ice will form on a surface that has water on it, if the surface is below freezing, or technically, can extract enough heat from the water to allow the water to fall to below freezing temperature.\n\nThis happens a lot when it has snowed, then there is a sunny or warm day, melting the snow to water because the ground temperature warms to above freezing.\n\nThen, at night, the ground will maintain the above freezing temperature for a while, but slowly cool off.\n\nA bridge has less 'mass' to maintain the warmer, higher, temperature, plus the air flowing above and below the bridge will cool the bridge faster, so it cools to below freezing faster. This causes bridges to frequently form ice more quickly than ground surfaces.\n\nUnder the right circumstances, the ice will form on the road as well. Just ask a busy auto body shop in winter.

Has anyone experience with attending an online college?

I took a few classes via Onlinelearning.net to clear my teaching credential.  It was the best/easiest thing I could've done.  I was working full time, finishing up my Masters Degree, and trying to keep up with everyday life.\n\nTaking classes online allowed me the opportunity to work when it was convenient for me, which was mostly late at night.  I also didn't have to waste time driving to and from class in traffic.  \n\nParticipation with others in the classes took place on discussion boards.  A certain amount of participation was required (i.e. post 5 messages on the message board in one week).  Assignments had to be e-mailed to the profs.  Aside from that, not much was required.  \n\nOverall, it was a great experience.


where can i find cheap prices on computer parts?

There are several places on the internet with good prices on hardware.\n\nIf you want to buy from independent vendors, pricewatch is a good source. It compares prices and rates the vendors. \n\nIf you want a site with great selection, great prices you should try newegg (formerly egghead) You get a final price, not always the best price, but you pay your true cost.\n\nAnother site is tigerdirect, where you get great prices, but most of the time you have to get a rebate. your cost will probably be less, but you expend more on the purchase and get a rebate.\n\nThere is always amazon, where you'd get both worlds, direct vendor and affiliates.\n\nEbay is a great source, great prices, but you have to pay extra attention to the reputation of the seller.\n\njust add .com to each site =)


how can I mpressed my interviewer with the answers about "tell me more about yourself?"?

Make sure and tell things that are related to the position that you are hiring for. Have a story to go with the different qualities that you are stressing.  For instance, if you say that you have a lot of initiative share a story about a past position where you showed that quality.  Don't talk about your personal life--that is not what the interviewer wants to hear about at this stage.
