Why do the Catholics focus so much on eating some bread during their mass???

Jesus instituted the Eucharist at the Last Supper. In the book of Matthew 26:26-29 Jesus says "this is my body" and "this is my blood".  \nIn the 6th chapter of John verse 41 Jesus says " I am the bread that came down from heaven."...the Jews murmured about this. He goes on to say in v.48, "I am the bread of life." He contrasted the manna that the Jews ate in the Old Testament saying that "they died",... "I am the living bread that came down from heaven; whoever eats this bread will live forever..."The Jews asked How can this man give us his flesh to eat?" Jesus emphasizes..."Amen, Amen, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you do not have life within you. In v.55-"For my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink."\n\nIf this was symbolic, why didn't Jesus explain it as he did with his many parables? Instead he repeated several times and emphazised with "Amen,Amen" Read the 6th chapter of John slowly and pray on it.\n\nIn 1st Corinthians 11:27 you see how St. Paul is teaching about the Last Supper and how the Church members in Corinth should examine themselves, meaning that those who unworthily ate the bread and drank the cup of our Lord will bring judgement on themselves. How could this be if this bread and wine were a mere symbols?\nThere is more going on here than meets the human senses. Remember the Jews in the 6th ch. of John, many of them left Jesus when he did not back down from his explanation and repeating of himself being the bread and blood that they must eat and drink for their salvation.\n\n"The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Christ?1 Corinthians 10:16\n\nThe Catholic Church has maintained the teaching of the Eucharist, the most extraordinary substance on earth, and has not wavered from this at all since Jesus instituted it 2000 years ago.


What was the reign of terror, and who was in chanrge?

The National Convention was established in 1792 by the Legisative Assembly. The Legistlative Assembly was set up the the original National Assembly that had issued the Declaration of the Rights of Man and essentially overthrown King Louis XVI. \n\nDue to the opposition growing against the National Convention in some cities and rural areas prompted it to set up the Committe on Public Safety, led by the infamous Robespierre (who is considered the leader of the Reign of Terror), to deal with the "counterrevolutionaries" who were rioting. \n\nRobespierre wanted to create a republic of virtue where all citizen would be morally virtuous and be dedicated to France at any cost. He set up a revolutionary tribunal to try the "counterrevolutionaries", eventually executing some 16,000 victims. The tribunal relied on hearsay and the accusation of jealous neighbors as much as it did on actual evidence of counterrevolutionary activities. \n\nThe irony is that, in 1974, enough oppostion mounted against Robespierre that he was eventually arrested and killed, the last to go to the guillotine, in what is called the Thermidorean Reaction

Wondering if anyone has had reflux disease? I get the worse heartburn and reflux that sometimes it wakes?

Yes, I use to have it really bad.  I had it so bad that pollups developed on my vocal cords from the acid and I had to have throat surgery a couple of years ago.  Since that time my doctor has me on Prevacid 30mg once a day.  As long as I take it as prescribed I NEVER get acid reflux... but if I go without taking the prescription for a few days I get acid reflux so badly that I can't sleep at night.. it's pretty awful.  Needless to say, I make sure to take my prescription!

How many different Tarot Cards are there? And what is the difference?

You'd be amazed. There are tons of different tarot decks out there. Just try an internet search. There is everything from baseball tarot to gummie bear tarot. Then there are the classic decks that are similar in setup, but with different artwork. I think it is a very personal choice. Choose what stands out to you and seems to suit you. Personally I use the Eileen Connolly cards and her book entitled, "Tarot--A New Handbook for the Apprentice". I would highly recommend this book! It makes reading the cards very easy, and I find the interpretations VERY accurate. Again, I will say it is a personal choice. I'm new to tarot myself, and I have found it an extremely useful tool. Approach with an open mind. It's not for everyone, I realize, but the fact that it has been around for thousands of years shows that more than one person has found it accurate and useful. Have fun!

If A-rod did horrible during the 2005 Playoffs, How do you think he will do in the World Baseball Classic?

One series has nothing to do with another.  Bernie Williams has hit great in about half his playoff series... and hit horribly in the other half.\n\nA-Rod's actually done about the same thing.  He just got cold at a bad time last year... and because the Yankees got eliminated, he never got a chance to make up for it.

Normally I take yogurt with lunch and dinner. \n\nAlso one can do any or combination of the following....\nDrink lots of water-8 to 10 glasses a day (adding a little lemon is good). Eat stuff like  whole grain rice, or whole grain anything. Almonds help too.\nStay relaxed, stress is also a factor many times..Yoga can be a cure too...if stress related.\n\nEat lots of salad, cow' milk, cow ghee (u know ghee made from cows milk).\n\nDrink juice of dudhi (indian sweet gourd)- prepare by boiling, then grinding it, filter , put tulsi (basil leaves), pudinah (mint)- drink this daily one cup


how can i design the web site very nice?

If you are a true novice and don't want to spend much time learning how to make a site, I would suggest the current super-popular MySpace. You can quickly get your information up for all your friends to see.\n\nIf you are interested in something more, but still fairly simple try GeoCities or Yahoo.\n\nIf you are willing to learn HTML I would suggest ATSPACE.COM. You can create a website for FREE up to 50MBs in size. I have two websites through them and the uptime is great. You'll need an ftp program to upload your stuff. There's a good free one for personal use called "FTP Explorer". Of course you'll either need to learn HTML or use one of the WYSIWYG programs like FrontPage or DreamWeaver to actually design your site. e-mail me if you need some help...\n\nIf you want your own domain and have it hosted, I suggest ReadyHosting. You get 1GB of space unlimted e-mail accounts, FTP access and domain name registration all for $99 a year.\n\nWeb hosting site (FREE):\nhttp://www.atspace.com\nWeb hosting site (COST):\nhttp://www.readyhosting.com\nFTP Explorer site:\nhttp://www.ftpx.com\n\nA couple of my websites:\nPioneer Baseball Website (ReadyHosting - Cost)\nhttp://www.pioneerbaseball.org\nMy Son's Travel Team's Website (ATSpace.com - FREE)\nhttp://tricountytitans.atspace\nFamily Website (ATSpace.com - FREE)\nhttp://tim8w.atspace.com


Can scientists prove that quarks exist?  If so, why not strings?

By using particle collisions, it is possible to show that there is *something* inside of protons, for example. These 'somethings' have the properties that the theorists predict that quarks will have. Furthermore, the theoretical predictions made by the quark models (such as decay rates, reaction cross sections, etc) are in agreement with what is actually seen in the accelerators. This is why we say that quarks exist even though nobody has seen an isolated quark (and there are good theoretical reasons why we may never see one).\n\nOn the other hand, the strings in string theory are *incredibly* small, which means we need very high energies to probe them. No particle accelerator that we have right now will produce these energies. Also, the strings are what would describe the nature of the quarks, not show they don't exist. The question is whether they are point particles or extended to some (small!) degree.


Did  Jesus really die on the cross or was it another Catholic Church cover-up?

Since there was no Catholic Chruch when it happened, I don't think they covered it up.

George Bush's new approval rating is a slumping 36% - do you agree with this Gallup poll?

Approval Ratings polls should be taken with a grain of salt for two reasons. First, people are essentially like lemmings adopting the flavor of the day in opinions. Secondly, these polls are based on interviewing 1000 people. In my opinion, this is way too small a sample to get an accurate picture of the nation.\n\nThe simple fact is that every issue is exploited to an extent by both sides for political gain. This is the sad truth, and I am afraid not much can be done about it. All in all, I think a 36% approval rating is lower than he deserves. \nWar is never popular, but his handling of Katrina is being twisted by the left for political gain. He spoke with Gov. Blanco before and during the heighth of the storm, asking her repetitively to declare a disaster. This would allow the Federal Gov't to take over, but she refused. Your president is not a First Responder. The blame belongs on the state and local governments.\n\nThe ports deal is another example, although I am increasingly of the position that it was a very clever smokescreen by the administration designed primarily to secure an easy passage of the Patriot Act renewal.


how do gliders stay in the air when they dont have motors?

There are several reasons gliders are able to fly the way they do:\n\nFirst, gliders are incredibly lightweight and are constructed from lightweight and strong materials, such as fiberglass.\n\nSecond, the wings on a glider are larger than a conventional plane's. This allows the glider to get more lift, which is what keeps conventional planes afloat.\n\nThird, the design of gliders plays a large part in their ability to fly. While conventional planes use thrusters and engines and can simply apply more power to stay afloat, gliders must rely on their superior design to minimize drag.\n\nAside from that, there are other factors at play, such as mother nature. Flying a glider -- just like flying a plane -- requires skill, and any good glider pilot will know how to balanace speed to get more lift when needed.\n\nI hope this helps.

Above is a good wikipedia article.  The simplest way to define infection is that it requires an invasion of a microorganism (bacteria, virus, fungus, etc.) into a space within the body, where no microbes should exist.  Furthermore, such invasion should then lead to tissue destruction and immune response of the body to meet the full definition of the term.

why do school years run from september to july?

The September start time is a holdover from the times when schools did not meet in the summer months due to the children being needed for planting and harvesting, during the spring and summer.  It was when schools opened up after being closed for summer.\nIt may have been retained in order to avoid a partial-year schoolyear, when your district changed to year-round. \nState laws govern the operation of schools.  This start time may be defined at the state or a more local level.


It depends on which Service you are referring to.\nI have 3 nephews in the Marines in Iraq, and Boot Camp was a grind, with lots of Physical Training and Discipline.\nIf you are talking about the Navy, it's not too bad if you have made your mind up to conform to the Navy's Philosophy of Cleanliness, Discipline, Honesty and Vigilance.\nThe Army and Marines are ground Combat Forces, and as such are trained much differently than the Navy and the Air Force.\nThe hardest Boot Camp is The Marine Corp, followed by the Army. Then the Navy followed by the Air Force.\nI was in the Navy 50 years ago, and the Boot Camps then were much different from what they are now. Today they are not as hard nor as disciplined, because now we have an all volunteer force, and are MUCH better paid...much better !!!

Are men capable of having a SEX only relationship with a woman they dated previously? No expectations of love?

This idea sounds good, but never actually works out. Unless it's a one night stand with someone you know you're never going to see again. Other than that, there is always going to be some emotion involved. Even if the other person agrees to just being sex buddies, they're probably just doing it to keep you aroung because they'd rather have you that way then no way at all.


what are disadvantages of a cover letter?

Well, if it's written poorly, has poor grammar or spelling, you'll look like a goober.  If it's a poor cover letter the prospective employer may not read another thing beyond the letter (like you resume).  Cover letters are meant to entice employers to want to read your résumé. \n\nHere is a website with advice about writing a cover letter:\nhttp://www.aresumes.com/coverlet.htm\n\nWHY YOU SHOULD WRITE A COVER LETTER\nThe key objectives of a cover letter are to: -\n• Inform the employer of your interest in the job\n• Persuade the employer of your suitability for the job\n• Make you look professional\n• Build good will\n• Obtain an interview\n• Write the structure of your interview\n• Demonstrate your writing and research skills\n• Offer a little window into your personality\n\nhttp://www.swin.edu.au/corporate/careers/Cover_Letter_Handout.pdf

Here are a few in order of their demise; Oldsmobile, Plymouth, Eagle, Rambler, Checker, Willys, Scout, Edsel, Imperial, DeSoto, Nash, Tucker, Packard. This may not be all that accurate since some of the names were actually models and not actually makes. \n\nBy the way, an earlier post listed a YUGO as an American brand. Although we have made a few mistakes along the way, only the Europeans can claim this piece of crap that came out of Yogoslavia.


Can two HIV+ people have unprotected sex?

The basic answer to this is No because there are various strains of the virus and thus each person could be reinfecting each other and thus make the other person sicker than they really should be.


should you date people you work with?  How bout try a serious relationship with them?

Getting involved with someone you work with is NOT a good idea. Any time there is a problem in the relationship, it can cause a problem in the work situation. If the relationship fails it can cause problems for you at work. Many businesses have rules against employees dating, because of the problems it creates in the work place. It can be grounds for termination if your company has a rule against employees dating.  If you truly feel a person is right for you, I suggest that one of you find a new job before getting involved in the relationship, or at the very least, make sure there is no company policy against employee dating.

Is there any difference between a 'speech therapist' and a 'speech and audiology pathologist'?

A speech therapist is a generic term and may refer to a master's level speech-language pathologist someone working with a lesser degree, such as a bachelor's degree or even in some cases, an associate's degree.  Ask for credentialing information.  No such thing as a "speech and audiology pathologist."  There are audiologists who focus on hearing issues, and speech-language pathologists. They are very different professions, although some can be dually-certified.

Why is there no mention of Satan or the Devil until the "New Testament"?The Tanakh has been misinterpreted

Bing! You hit the nail on the head the Christian Devil was taken from pagan religions that lived in the area of the Roman Empire and has nothing to do with the Tanach. According to the original bible there are two types of “devil” the internal and external the internal one is basically summed up to be man animal instinct the desire to seek physical pleasure instead of meaning full existence. Not to say that it is all bad with out it we would all die hungry and childless, but the goal of man is to harness this instinct and use it to go after his ultimate goal getting closer to the creator of the universe (email me and I will explain that further). As for the external this would be the angle of death who really has no impact on our lives and should not be of concern. To further make the point that the Devil dose not exist look at what they say he is. They describe him as a force that “fights G-d” if this is true doesn’t that mean that he is independent of G-d and may be called a god of evil. Think about it.

Why has the Manchester City crest got three stars on it?

The current Manchester Cuty FC crest was adopted in 1997, a result of the previous crest being ineligible for registration as a trademark. The new club crest is based on elements from the original "Arms of the City of Manchester", the crest which is still used by Manchester City PLC today and worn on the team shirt for all Wembley occasions. It retains the original shield set against an eagle taken from the Badge of the City of Manchester, dating from 1957, also originally found on the City of Manchester Crest, on the ribbon flowing from the knight's helmet. Below the shield is the new club motto "Superbia In Proelio", a Latin phrase translating to "Pride in Battle". The three stars above the eagle constitute a design element that relate a more continental feel to the design.

Why do girlz spend hours and hours in shopping centres but only wear thier clothes once?

I think it's probably because they enjoy buying more than actually utilizing what they buy. Even this is silly, because then they're wasting money, time, and effort. If they turned their attention to something useful, perhaps these shoppers would have better things to DO!!!


does ur exfoliater have 2b expensive 2work  can 1from walmart work just as good as the 1 from sephora,bath&bod

Nope, an exfoliator can be from Walmart and work just as good as one that's more expensive. Basically all its doing is removing dead skin cells. Some of the mild ones like Neutrogena you can use every day as long as your skin doesn't react badly. Remember to moisturize after you exfoliate because sometimes it can dry out your skin.

What do you know about a new medicine (drug) for autism discovered in Australia?

Beware of any treatment called a 'miracle cure'... Autism is such a pervasive disorder, that a single drug is unlikely to ever 'cure it'. It may be that some of the symptoms may be reduced, but considering that autism affects the development of a child's brain, it is unlikely that anything (in the near future) will be able to 'undo' developmental pathogenenes. \n\nThis article shows the current state of mind concerning 'miracle drugs'\n\nNovel treatments for autistic spectrum disorders.\n\nLevy SE, Hyman SL.\n\nChildren's Seashore House, The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine, Philadelphia, 1914, USA. Levys@email.chop.edu\n\nIn no area of developmental pediatric practice is there more controversy regarding the choice of treatment than related to children with autistic spectrum disorders (ASD). Complementary and alternative medical therapies (CAM) are often elected because they are perceived as treating the cause of symptoms rather than the symptoms themselves. CAM used for autism can be divided by proposed mechanism: immune modulation, gastrointestinal, supplements that affect neurotransmitter function, and nonbiologic intervention. Secretin as a therapy for autism is discussed as an example of how a clinical observation rapidly grew to a widespread treatment before well-designed studies demonstrated absence of effect. The plausibility for behavioral effect was not substantiated by clinical studies. CAM used for treatment of autism is examined in terms of rationale, evidence of efficacy, side effects, and additional commentary. Families and clinicians need access to well-designed clinical evidence to assist them in choice of therapies. Copyright 2005 Wiley-Liss, Inc.\n\nHere's another article that may interest you:\n\nAutism, an extreme challenge to integrative medicine. Part 2: medical management.\n\nKidd PM.\n\nAutism and allied autistic spectrum disorders (ASD) present myriad behavioral, clinical, and biochemical abnormalities. Parental participation, advanced testing protocols, and eclectic treatment strategies have driven progress toward cure. Behavioral modification and structured education are beneficial but insufficient. Dietary restrictions, including removal of milk and other casein dairy products, wheat and other gluten sources, sugar, chocolate, preservatives, and food coloring are beneficial and prerequisite to benefit from other interventions. Individualized IgG or IgE testing can identify other troublesome foods but not non-immune mediated food sensitivities. Gastrointestinal improvement rests on controlling Candida and other parasites, and using probiotic bacteria and nutrients to correct dysbiosis and decrease gut permeability. Detoxification of mercury and other heavy metals by DMSA/DMPS chelation can have marked benefit. Documented sulfoxidation-sulfation inadequacies call for sulfur-sulfhydryl repletion and other liver p450 support. Many nutrient supplements are beneficial and well tolerated, including dimethylglycine (DMG) and a combination of pyridoxine (vitamin B6) and magnesium, both of which benefit roughly half of ASD cases. Vitamins A, B3, C, and folic acid; the minerals calcium and zinc; cod liver oil; and digestive enzymes, all offer benefit. Secretin, a triggering factor for digestion, is presently under investigation. Immune therapies (pentoxifyllin, intravenous immunoglobulin, transfer factor, and colostrum) benefit selected cases. Long-chain omega-3 fatty acids offer great promise. Current pharmaceuticals fail to benefit the primary symptoms and can have marked adverse effects. Individualized, in-depth clinical and laboratory assessments and integrative parent-physician-scientist cooperation are the keys to successful ASD management.\n\n\nConcerning chelation therapy, although it may well be effective in some cases, it has some serious risks: one boy died during threatment: http://www.post-gazette.co

Real true love is very strong. It's not something you have to ask yourself about. You will just know. When you are with that person then everything around you stops. Nothing else matters and time does not exist. You dont think about anything else other than that person. But you have to be careful because infatuation is quite similiar. Ever see William Shakespear's Romeo and Juliet? If not then watch the new version with Leonardo DiCaprio. They died for eachother, thats love.

exercises for people with heart conditions?

You might want to check out your local hospital and see if they have a gym with a trainer (or a local gym that they recommend), that would be safest.  I attended a hospital gym for several years and loved that in case something happened, the staff would know how to deal.  Another fringe benefit was that there were all fitness levels there, from people starting post-surg rehab to young athletes conditioning for a sports season.\n\nI am not a medical professional, but I would assume that you should check with a physician or pt/ot before starting anything strenuous (spelling?) like heavy cardiovascular.  I would think basic stretching and light walking would be a good place to start, but your best bet is to check with a healthcare professional before getting hard & heavy into anything.\n\nGood luck getting or staying fit!

How do non-gov't employees get security clearances? Sandy Berger, a non e'ee, had his suspended till 2008.

You will have todefine what you mean by "government employee."  Are you talking about a member of the civil service?  Many non-GS employees are required to have security clearances from the federal government in order to engage in many forms of work as contractors, agents, etc, of the government.\n\nOther non-GS type employees are: Foreign Service Officers (diplomatic personnel), members of the military, etc.  People not directly employed or paid by the USG include contractors, professional services firms, etc.  Employees of Boeing or Lockheed working on airframes or systems or information services contracts are required to have federal security clearances.  The same might be true for any person asked to come into a government process including attorneys, consultants, etc.  I'm not sure in which capacity Mr. Berger currently serves...it may be none.  He was an informal national security policy advisor to the Kerry campaign, which, while unpaid, would have required a clearance.  However, he certainly had a clearance that is valuable to maintain for a possible return to politics in 2008.

per capita spending  by Americans for Christmas as compared to Easter?

does anyone know of cases of aggressive dog behavior where it was proven that there was an outside influence?

Aggressive dog behavior is overwhelmingly the fault of humans. In some cases, particularly in cases where children are bitten, the dog is provoked into it. This might not be intentional, but I work with animals and can't tell you how many times parents will be standing right next to their kids, but are oblivious to the fact that they are smacking rather than petting an animal, pulling its ears, poking it or getting in its face. The only way dogs have to tell them to stop is aggression. Although this is more common with children, I have seen plenty of grown adults that should know better approach or treat animals in a way that is inappropriate and could trigger aggression. This is usually the cause of "sudden, unexpected" aggression from dogs that have a long track record of good behavior.\n\nDogs that exhibit aggressive behavior regularly were most likely made that way by their owners, either intentionally or not. Many people will buy "macho" breeds like rottweilers and pit bulls and teach them to be aggressive because they think it's cool. What is unfortunately even more wide spread is aggression fostered in dogs because of poor treatment on the part of their owners. Dogs are social animals. Most canines live naturally in packs, and domestic dogs instinctually look to their human family to be their pack. Many dogs are kept chained their entire lives, or live outside in yards or cages and rarely get attention or socialization. This is like being in solitary containment for them, and after a while it can cause a number of "bad" behaviors, such as constant barking, digging, chewing, and of course, aggression.


How do you know that person truly like you and not using you??

I'm guessing that you do like this person too, and would be terribly disappointed to learn he (she) was using you. But let me tell you som'n. If that person is using you, he (she) will never let it show or tell you straight, so you might never be able to have that confirmed. But on the other hand, if you stop trusting him, your relationship will suffer from it.\n\nSo you have no choice but to sit ant talk to that person. Make things clear. Tell that person how you feel, share your concerns. It might look scary for the short term, but trust me, on the long run, you'll win big (or lose less!!)\n\ngd-luck!


are there any gays that do not like having sex with men but like looking at naked men?

I would think that if a person likes looking at naked men then they would like to have sex with them. Unless they feel self-conscious about their looks or their sexuality it seems unlikely that they would enjoy looking but not touching.

Is Ramayana and Bhagvat Gita from God ...like Quran?? Or its a Man made..?

What is not made by Man ? The Bible, Al Quran, the Tora, all religious Books are written by Human Beings. Many believe the authors of the kind of books you mean to have been inspired by a higher spiritual power when bringing their visions to paper. Others believe and even try to give evidence that's all fake. \nThe best way to find out is to read, probably to study the texts by yourself. A Question like this one is of a different importance than a simple mathematical problem or a grammar problem or a question one may ask you in an educational test. No one living today has seen how these texts were created. So how can anyone give you the answer you are looking for? Do not think you are to young, to stupid, not educated enough to understand by yourself what you need to understand. It may cost you some work, time and stress, for sure, but you will find out better by yourself than anyone else can do for you.


Hey guys, if  you could chose one girl in the hole world what would she be like??

I think we should all learn that in appreciating each other for our own personality and looks the better off we are. That being said I would love a gal with a really fun sense of humor . The looks don't have to be outstanding but the personality would almost have to.


An apparatus with which we think what we think. That which distinguishes the man who is content to be something from the man who wishes to do something. A man of great wealth, or one who has been pitchforked into high station, has commonly such a headful of brain that his neighbors cannot keep their hats on. In our civilization, and under our republican form of government, brain is so highly honored that it is rewarded by exemption from the cares of office.

What is Rick Hendrick's going to do with the #25 team to get it up in the top 10?

I was really pulling for this team when Jerry was driving.\n\nI thought they showed a lot of competitivness but just couldn't get all the wins they were deserving of.  But they do know how to be quick.\n\nI think Vickers is still showing signs of improvement.  He seems to be able to keep his emotions in check and has driven the car awesome at times.\n\nI think if Vickers continues to learn at the tracks he's lacking speed, and ties that in with being a bit more aggresive ( racing aggresion, not emotional)  at the tracks that he has had success, he will climb up the standings.

Is it ethical to make fun of people even if they are evil and have commited atrocious acts?

I think we should be able to make jokes about any person who has a "public" personality. That's the price you pay for fame and that's why Letterman & those guys are around. And I'm not just talking about the nasty ones - you should be able to joke even about Mother Theresa. This is also partially based on the premise of a previous writer (Admiral) who correctly states we shouldn't even take ourselves too seriously.

What is the best way to achieve organism while masturbating?

Transcending beyond your "typo", I would say: Seeing others in action or letting others watch you (through visual stimuli of videos, magazines, Internet sex/web cams, etc.) + securing/prolonging the moment of climax for as long as possible via mental control, applied pressure techniques, etc.    Remember, the brain IS the most important sexual organ - what it likes you WILL like too!  ...Hey, we are talking advanced advise here!!!  :-)


Best way to train for a 10K run from scratch?

I used to run the mile & 2 mile in high school track, then went on to 10k races.\n\nStart slowly by jogging a mile per day, until you can do so with relative ease without being winded. Try to set the pace for 7-8 minutes and work on decreasing the time.\nRemember, this will take a while, so be patient.  Start doing 2 miles. Intersperce this road work with sprint exercises, 50 meters bursts of speed, walk abit to catch your breath, and do it again.\n\nThere's also a Swedish form of training like this called "Fartlek". I know it sounds funny. It means to alternate jogging with sprinting.  As you're on your jog, break into a sprint for 100 meters or so, then slow back down to a jog.\n\nYour first 10k will be slower than you hope, but don't give up. The next one will be faster.  If you train every day, you should be able to do your first 10k in a couple of months.  It's also best to jog in the morning, than at the end of a long day at work. It'll also help set the pace for your day.


is it possible to get pregnant on your last menstrual day?

In theory "no". But how do you know it is your last menstrual day ? Especially if you are having irregular periods. If you can track you period patterns then it is easy to predict reliably the period cycle and enjoy safe "unprotected" sex.\n\nRead "Taking Charge of Your Fertility" to know more. I think every woman should read that.

Unions   represent the working man, so why don't republicans support unions?

because republicans do not have the workign man as a priority and neither do democrats. WHY? Because campaigns, bribes and luxurious lifestyles have to be paid for and he workign man doesn't pay for them - corporate excutives and corporation heads do. It's the sad reality of capitalist politics.\nVesudesm unions are viewed by many to be a socialist practice, and ot most Americans, socialism is "EVIL"

In accounting the short hand for Credit is Cr, why is the shorthand for Debit Dr?

One theory asserts that the DR and CR come from the Latin past participles of debitum and creditum which are "debere" and "credere", respectively. Another theory is that DR stands for "debit record" and CR stands for "credit record". Finally, some believe the DR notation is short for "debtor" and CR is short for "creditor".

What are some important things that happened for the Red Scare in the 1950's?

'McCarthyism'  sp?  The notion that a congressman, I think, can submit a name before congress/senate and without proof, condemn a man or women to the label of 'red.'  That is to say, a communist.  Who knows, maybe McCarthy was a pinko?  But to destroy someone based upon speculation is, well, just a witch hunt.


What do you think was the most important event or change from the Second World War ?

Not entirely sure what you mean by "change".  If you mean how the world was changed by the war and its legacy, I would say the technological advances that it triggered.  Advances in medicine, computers, nuclear power (and, of course, weapons).  Developments in powered flight also led to consumer aviation.  Then there were developments that weren't technological in the obvious sense, like advances in logistics and organisational structures: feeding, supplying and organising an enormous army fighting on the other side of the world is no mean feat.\n\nThe list is pretty long (see source below).\n\nThe end of European Imperialism was a pretty important legacy of the war, too.\n\nIf you're asking about the most important event, D-Day and Hiroshima must be up there.  I personally think the Nazis' decision to bomb London rather than concentrating on destroying the RAF may have been what lost the war for them more than anything else (though you could argue that the decision to attack Russia was pretty fateful).  If Britain had been knocked out of the war, it is doubtful that anyone else would have been able to prevent them dominating the continent.

What is the best way to study at school in order to achieve academic excellence.?

You should try the following approach to do great in school. Lets say that you are an average student getting about 75% in school tests.\n\nYou can't achieve grades by just saying that u want to.The work needs commitment to yourself and your goals.Have a clear cut goal,say, you need to have 95% as your final goal.But work in a step by step manner. Let's put it bluntly, you CAN'T have 95% overnight or even in 1 month. But yes, you could set a primary goal of lets say 80%. Achieve it.Then increase the goal to 87%, achieve it then 92% and then 95%.You should follow this approach.I give you a time frame of 1 yr to achieve the goal. If you want something faster this is not meant for you then.It is not a quick fix solution to help you...we  are talking of you being having 75% and going on 95%, it cannot be a sudden jump.Follow these steps\n\n1.Your final exams are lets say 2 months later, and you have a huge deal of syllabus to cover. DON'T LEAVE ANYTHING TO THE VERY END.Start preparing right away.\n\n2.You could adopt 2 kinds of approaches to work on: do any two subjects each day or have a fixed time span to complete one subject. If, the syllabus that is coming for the exams has already been taught in school, i'd suggest you take the second method, but if it isn't you should rather take in the first method.Both are equally good, it depends on you.\n\n3.Make your schedule flexible. Provide for allowances and unexpected happenings. Give yourself a break after every session of 45 minutes. The break should be of 10 minutes and NOT MORE THAN THAT.\n\n4.Your syllabus should be completed in the following manner:\na)LEARNING:You learn everything that is to be covered. After you learn a chapter, ask someone to listen to what you learnt,immediately.After all,you need to bake the pot you have moulded.It really helps.It should constitute 65% of your shedule days\nb)1st REVISION:Set some days for the revision of material that you have learnt. Join some class that gives test series or ask someone at home/teachers to test you out.This mauy involve written tests,orals.Essentially this revision should be 25% of your study schedule days\nc)2nd REVISION: This is the repition of the above mentioned step but is directly after it\n\n5.For Math you should have lots and lots of practise, I tell you Maths can either make your score or break it. The key heere is practise. If you aren't good at maths, seek help, join tutions. The key here is that you should have done your bokk at least THREE TIMES before the exam.TRY TO DO A FEW SUMS EVERYDAY\n\n6.One basic reason why most students don't do so well because of the lack of initiative and the involvement of the parents . Ask your parents not only to help you but monitor you and keep a check on you always.\n\n7.Do not stick to the computer/TV when you know you should hve been studying.My TV had been packed in my exams too, and i must say it helped.\n\n8.Have someone in your class with whom you can have constant competition. Have that "I have to beat that bloody bastard" kind of spirit. It helps!\n\n9. Be truthful to yourself. If you know that you have completed a chapter only superflously and see that others are playing all around acknowledge this fact because "you want to do extremely well at school in order to achieve greatness as education is the key to real greatness."Isn't it?\n\n10.Do not get dejected if you aren't able to achive the short term goal. Keep the ultimate goal in your mind. Work hard and be serious, no one can stop you from coming to the head of the class\n\n11. Listen to what the teacher says in school, sometimes they give huge hints about the questions to be asked in exams. Keep your eyes and ears open always. \n\n12. Prepare notes(only if you feel they shall be of help)\nThey give they crux of the chapter.\n\n13.Try to please the teacher, don't be a punk and get carried away by the crowd. Teachers get impressed when you ask int


Where can I locate a Head Ti-S4 tennis racket? I do not want the CZ model.?

After seeing your question, i immediately thought of a place to find the Heah Ti-S4 tennis racquet -- eBay! eBay has about ten listings for the exact racquet that you are looking for!

Take this box into ur car, and go for a ride, around the campus,untill u will find her.Or take this box into ur pocket and bring it always with u untill u will see her again!!!! And if she is near u, dont waste any time,go  and tell her some sweet word and give the box to her. After u can go, and i hope she will use ur address or number soon! Best luck! Maybe if u will try it, i'd be very happy if u will send me a mess, how was it....

need advice on how to learn Vlookup tables in Microsoft Excel?

Vlookup isn't that hard once you know how it works.\n\nLet's see if I can show you here...\n\nYou have 4 columns...\n\n.. A.. B.. C.. D\n1.. 1.. =vlookup(A1,C1:D4,2).. 1.. One\n2.. 2.. =vlookup(A2,C1:D4,2).. 2.. Two\n3.. 3.. =vlookup(A3,C1:D4,2).. 3.. Three\n4.. 4.. =vlookup(A4,C1:D4,2).. 4.. Four\n\nThis will render the output...\n\n...A..B.....C...D\n1..1..One...1...One\n2..2..Two...2...Two\n3..3..Three.3...Three\n4..4..Four..4...Four\n\nIn vlookup, the first variable (A1) says "Here is the value I want you to look up in the table"\n\nThe second value, (C1:D4) says "This is where the table is"\n\nThe third value, (2) says "When you find a match in the first column, use the output from the second column"\n\nSo, in the first line (=vlookup(A1,C1:D4,2))\n\nIt says Look up the value in A1 (1) in table C1-D4 and display what you find in the second column.\n\nSince the value of A1 is "1", it finds "1" in C1 and displays whatever is in the second column, which is "One".\n\nSimple huh?

Is it your interpretation of the Bible or is God giving you your message for the day?

For those who believe, the Bible is a living book.  Which means that the words today are as true as they were yesterday, today, and tomorrow.  When you find new understanding of the scripture it is a little of both going on.  God knows that no one can understand everything all at one time, and he knows that we all learn in different ways.  When scripture messages are "revealed" to you, that is a revelation that God sent to you in a way that you needed to understand it at a time you needed to understand it. Now if you interpret, and it is not God's will, he will find a way to "reveal" that too.  Because if you believe and are truly faithful, God will always provide you with the tools and the information you need.  So, even if you interpret (yourself) and it is a wrong interpretation because you got in the way of your own understanding, God will reveal it to you when you need it.  That is why being a Christian is a journey.  If we all had the ability to read, understand, and apply absolutely everything, then the journey would be over. So, sometimes you will be confused, sometimes you will stumble...but if you are a believer and you ask...he will pick you up when you fall. Just be open and accepting of your revelations as they come and keep studying. Good luck and God Bless.

What should I think of an MBA program that does not require you take the GMAT ?

I am glad you are thinking about this because MBA's are a dime a dozen. The real distinguisher is the pedigree of the school. Some employers who offer MBA positions only recruit from certain schools so if you are thinking of working with these larger companies, you want to make sure that you have the right educational pedigree. \n\nThe GMAT is only one way to screen prospective employees. When I was interviewing after completing my MBA in 2003, I think I was only ever asked once about my GMAT scores. They assume that if you got into a good school, you must be smart.

What surgery did Kirby Puckett have today for his stroke? What type of stroke did he have?

It is impossible to say with any certainty what type of surgery he had, but there are two major reasons for surgery with stroke.  First is for hemorrhage (bleeding), which is probably more likely in this case.  If Puckett has high blood pressure, he may have ruptured a blood vessel in his brain, causing bleeding.  This sometimes needs to be controlled with open surgery to clip the source.  The outcome from this can vary from very good to grave.\n\nThe second type of stroke is embolic, which is when a clot cuts off blood flow to part of the brain.  Although less commonly needing surgery, when these types of strokes do need surgery, they are for a very bad reason:  the patient's brain has swollen and is imminently herniating.  This can happen in the first 3-5 days of a major stroke.  These patients generally do very poorly, many of whom do not survive.\n\nMy hope for Kirby is that he had a small bleeder/aneurysm, it got clipped, and his brain survived without deficit.  Keep him in your thoughts/prayers...

Would the Nazi party been allowed in the U.S. during WWII? If you read about what people are doing to innocent women and children in places like Algeria, Sudan, Indonesia in the name of Islam(cutting the throats of whole families if they don't observe Islam as devoutly as they should, burn torture to enslaved christian children if they refuse to learn Islam, etc....) Ask yourself, "Do I want that to happen here next?"


If I am slow, can I play tennis as good as someone who is fast?

Yes you can succeed -- yes, speed is important, but accuracy is much more so.  And strength will help -- especially in returning those 120 mph serves.  Hand to eye contact and keeping your eye on the ball will help.  Plus, learn to play the net.  You don't need alot of speed at the net, just reflexes and accuracy.

Please someone with medical knowlwdge explain to me what a prominent cisterna maga is..I have one ..?

From what I understand, a prominent cisterna magna is an incidental finding.  It is something you were born with and does not cause any problems with your health.  I would liken it to this scenario.  You are suffering with  a backache and get lumbar spine x-rays.  The x-rays show 6 lumbar vertebra instead of the normal 5.  It is the way you were born, and does not contribute to the backache.  I searched webmd for "prominent cisterna magna" and found a few articles.  Here are some excerpts:\n\nPROMINENT CISTERNA MAGNA \n\nThis represents a normal anatomic variant and should not be confused with pathology.\n\nAND:\nWe have fantastic news!  Madeline has a prominent cisterna magna, and NOT an arachnoid cyst.  Some people have big ears, a big nose, etc.  Madeline has a "big" cisterna magna.  The cerebral spinal fluid collects in the cisterna magna, which of course everyone has.  Madeline's is just extremely prominent and completely "normal".  It doesn't need to be followed up with MRI's or anything.  She probably had it her entire life, and it will always stay this size.  This should not affect her life at all.  The doctor said we should just think about taking care of her post-cancer treatment and not her cisterna magna.  We are just so relieved.


how much (if anything) would a KISS doll of Ace be still in box and in good condition - made in 1978?

Oh- THAT has got to be worth some serious cash!! Go on EBay and take a look for something similar to see if it's worth your while. \nBut I know from my own experience that even the original sticker that came in the "Rock and Roll All Over" album (yes- when vinyl was STILL the best method!) was worth at least $200 5 years ago to a moderate Kiss fan-- and that's just a sticker...

How can i reduce my weight quickly and effectively, any helpful weight loss diet programs are there?

So here are your 5 easy natural detox tips\nEat cherries and strawberries\nThese foods are rich in ellagic acid a nutrient that helps mop up free radicals and help combat pollutants such as alcohol and as a by product they boost brain power.\nYou can also add raspberries an alternative to the above 2 choices.\nEat Grapes\nThese are rich in flavinols, which help your arteries work to their maximum and make blood run smoothly and quickly around the body.\nEat citrus fruits such as berries\nThese foods are rich in vitamins C & E, which will help cleanse and detoxify the liver making it work more efficiently.\nPrunes & Fibre\nEat prunes as they will naturally cleanse the colon stimulating the gut and help expel waste quicker, you should also up your intake of fibre as well to cleanse the colon further.\nApricots\nIf you are smoker this food is particularly useful, apricots are rich in beta-carotene and vitamin C which helps repair smoke damage to the lungs.\nCranberries or juice\nContains proanthocyanidin which are antitoxants that will help cleanse and flush out the kidneys.\nYou can also add a couple of supplements if you wish top the above list to help detoxify further. Alfalfa and milk thistle are good choices. The first acts as a general cleanser and the second as a cleanser for the liver.\nYour organ will be working more efficiently with above foods and this will help you get rid of weight faster as your kidneys and liver in particular will work more smoothly.\nNow here are 5 tips to lose weight fast\n5 Easy weight loss tips\nDrink Iced Water\nTwo litres a day minimum. Water has to be iced as the body will burn 100 calories just heating the water to normal body temperature. Also hunger pangs are very often thirst pangs, so this will help you stop over eating.\nAdd lemon to flavour if you wish and gain the added benefit of cleansing your liver at the same time.\nWater also helps your body metabolize stored fat by helping the kidneys flush waste quicker. When you don't drink enough water the liver needs to help the kidneys perform this function. When the liver has to help the kidneys its normal function of providing stored fat for energy is slowed down.\nGreen tea\nDrink 5 cups a day. Research shows this can burn a massive 80 calories a day! It is believed the antioxidant catechins in green tea boost the metabolism and help burn fat.\nChilli sauce & mustard\nThese foods increase your calorie burning capacity by between 5 - 10% for up to 2 hours after eating. This is because they contain capsaicin which speeds the metabolism, so if you enjoy hot food your in luck!\nLow fat diary foods\nCan increase fat burning in the abdominal area. Why? Because these foods are rich in calcium which encourages the release of fat from fat cells and also reduces the amount of fat absorbed.\nEat Fibre\nEating fiber foods to help keep things moving through your bowel as stated above and makes you feel full.\nThe average person can lose 9-10 pounds in one year just from doubling their fiber intake aim for 25grams per day ( the average for most adults is just 8grams ) fiber rich foods include strawberries, apples, brown rice, chick peas, potatoes ( with skins ) and brown rice.


what's the difference between a democracy and a republic?

A democracy elects its government by popular vote.  A republic does not have a monarchy.\n\nUSA and India are both democracies and republics.  UK and Thailand are both democracies but not republics (as they both have monarchies).\n\nBurma (which calls itself Myanmar now) is a republic but not a democracy (the democratically elected government is under house arrest).  Nepal is neither a democracy nor a republic as it has an absolute monarch.  North Korea is a republic but not really a democracy (although it calls itself a democracy because people have to vote.  As North Koreans have only one candidate to choose from at election time, most people would not really regard this as a democracy.)


why was acceptance of some major scientific explanations so difficult (those of copernicus,galileo,darwin?

An interesting question. Copernicus and Galileo's work went against the universe that Aristotle described, and he was the most important figure in science for many centuries. Naturally, since Aristotle believed that all of the laws of nature could be deduced by thought experiments rather than observation and physical experimentation, and since he practically defined science for centuries, there was some social inertia built up which hindered widespread acceptance of ideas contary to his. \n\nAgain, social inertia played a role in the limited acceptance of Darwin's work among the populace as a whole. \nFundamentally, the theory of evolution contradicts a literal acceptance of the bible. The order of creation doesn't make any sense from the standpoint of one who understands even the rudiments of modern science (I mean, really, plants before the sun?), but most people are not that familiar with the text, or have centuries-old rationalizations to fall back on. Evolution, however, contradicts directly (well, according to creationists, and I can see why they argue that) the idea that the animals were created seperately from the plants, and so forth. It also eliminates any possibility of life being created within a single week (as we measure such on Earth, anyhow).\n\nMost people are ignorant of the science underlying how we know the age of the Earth, how we know evolution occurred, and so forth, and, fundamentally, they don't really care. If it didn't contradict their religious beliefs, they couldn't care less about that aspect of science, and so, they cannot be bothered to learn about it. The minority for whom it contradicts their religious beliefs, however, attempt to attack it on many levels. Since they cannot do so from a genuine scientific stance, they often do so disingeniously, attempting to phrase it as a conflict between scientists, or as two competing theories, or as an infalliable religious text versus a harebrained idea come up with by a lecherous, god-hating drunkard.\n\n Since most people don't care enough to actually learn the science, they get the impression that there is a genuine dispute, and they learn pseudoscience, believing that it is science. Since no one likes admitting they were wrong, many people refuse to do so, rationalizing that REAL scientists have the same doubts, or that there's a conspiracy so scientists don't look dumb, or that they have found an elementary flaw that all of the actual scientists out there have somehow managed to miss, rather than reasoning that perhaps it is actually themselves who do not understand the topic.\n\nFundamentally, I would argue that it is the result of the largely apathetic masses, who do not understand science, and could care less, and from the unwillingness of most people to admit that they might be wrong, or misunderstand something. Further, most people do not understand the scientific method, nor do they understand logic (or logical fallacies), and so are not able to evaluate claims of an evidentiary nature. Finally, most people listen to others, rather than thinking for themselves, and prefer simple answers to more complex ones.\n\nI should add that this post contains a healthy dose of opinion as to what the contributing factors are, and so may not represent all of the factors which are responsible for the refusal of many to accept the answers provided by the scientific method when they don't like (or understand) the answer. It merely contains those which, in my study of the subject, have seemed to contributed the most.


Which of the Leprechaun series of movies is the best?  Why?

Oh my god have I been waiting for someone to ask this question!!\n\nLeprechaun5:In tha Hood is the hands down champion for one reason and one reason only--ICE T!! I would not hesitate to say that this movie is a true cinematic masterpiece. It's funny and gorey like the other Lep movies, but Ice T's portrayal of Mack Daddy allowed this gem to ascend from an otherwise cheesy horror franchise, and become a true shinning star. Packed full of hilarious quotable lines, this film is in my collection and I have watched it countless time. Postmaster P, Butch, Stray Bullet....it is just to much. You just have to remember that first there be the physical, then there be the metaphysical!\n\nOn a sad note, the much anticipated Leprechaun 6:Back to da Hood was a dog. Lep 1 and 2 were so so, Vegas was good, and Leprechaun in space was horrible. Who will be the next fool to dare steal the leprechaun's gold?


emachine t2240 was installing start up disk it hung up on disk 2 now all i get is a flashing curser?

What would be the constant of variatiation for K for the inverse variation y=32 when x=0.5?

well its an inverse variation so the equation is y = K/x\nput y=32 in and x=0.5 in and you get 32 = K/0.5 so K = 16\nthe constant of variation is 16.

How do you drive a girl absolutely crazy in bed?

so you are looking for balance ....\n\nplay games that require both to participate. \n\nAlso, when you get her almost to the point of orgasm, stop and let it calm down, then do it again, stop and let it calm, finally the third time let it go all the way.\n\nI have also been told that spontanious is a HUGE turn on.\n\nTry anything that sounds good, but remember they won't have fun if you aren't having fun too.

can anyone tell me whether they know anything about their pastlives?have you had the oppotunity to know about?

I was told I was very spiritual in several of them.  I can't see it myself but I had a reading done by some VERY skilled people.\n\nIt's kind of cool to see what you once were-even though it has no bearing on what you're doing now.  Sometimes it can explain why you feel a certain way when you have no good reason for it.\n\nOh, yeah, be careful who you talk to about this because (as you can see by certain answers) some get pretty rude.\n\nI'd be wary of those who tell you that you were some famous person in a past life.  What are the chances of that?  It may be possible but certainly not likely.  None of my readings were of a famous person-I was just an ordinary person who never made the history books. :)

is it wrong to be with a younger guy? he's 29, I'm 47?

Age is relative...there is no such thing as "wrong" or "right". It's only what society dictates that determines labels such as right as wrong. you need to look into your heart. Does being with him feel right? Does he feel comfortable with you? if yes, then it is not wrong, it is right.Do not let societal perceptions dictate your life...if you two are happy then that's all that matters.


Oh boy with all the lovely Jew haters on this site I wonder why I even bother.\n\nYes, I have had the opportunity to spend a year and a half studying in Jerusalem, Israel. Do not let the media fool you it is a wonderful place to go and perfectly safe. Most areas that really dangerous you cant even get into and the Israeli security is top notch. It is very similar to many US cities in that there are some places that are not smart to go to at night. If you have any common sense though you will be just fine and a visit to the holy sites and to see the beauty of the land that is all around you is something I would recommend for anyone to see.

ok iam 17 and i just started to date an friend ex and she 14 but turning 15 in aug should i stay with her?

Well if she's mature and not childish yea stay with her and also if your respectful because she can easily press charges on you.


What would you say if i said i loved your mom?


Do you find it easier to maintain a positive disposition or a negative one?

Well this is totally different than what we discussed a few days ago......lol  The "Carry off" portion changes the whole perspective. When you say it this way....I realize you are talking about "masking" feelings with happiness......or promoting the feeling of unhappiness for the sake of your audience. \n\nYes, I'm a master at smiling and making the world think I'm happy. (even when things are crumbling around me) Rarely do people know the blows that life lands on me because I won't allow the efffects to show in my demeanor. It's not that it is work.....it's not that it is hard to do.....it's just how it is. I never want people to feel sorry for me or to feel that they must take on my burdens, so I tackle things on my own in my own time and don't show the negative side. \n\nThus why I said earlier that maintaining a "negative" disposition would be harder work for me. It would mean that I would actually have to bring my issue to the forefront of my mind and think about it. It's such a natural response for me to just "table" it until I'm alone. When someone that knows me well sits me down and says, "Ok, spill it....something is eating at you." Well it takes all the strength and effort in the world to make myself actually "unload." I seriously just have a very very hard time burdening anyone else with the things floating around in my head. So hands down.............it's easier to maintain a positive disposition than a negative one. \n\n*now all of you think I need therapy right? lol....you just might be right!! lol*


is it worth trying if your crush doesn't notice you?

Obviously you have openly revealed this 'crush' of yours - and somehow the word must have got to him ! So, egoist that he is, your 'crush' is playing 'hard to get' : one of the oldest ploys, resorted to, by most males, to prove that they are highly 'in demand'.\nDon't fall for this, mariah : What possibly caused you to develop this 'crush' on him was possibly also just another 'false front' put up by him - to 'impress' impressionable gals like you !\n...When you find a guy who remains totally natural, while relating to both his male and female friends and acquaintances - HE is the kind of person you should have a 'crush' on.\nAnd when such a nice guy gets to know of your crush, he will not play games with you : He will either hug you in a tight crush to reveal that he likes you too, or will frankly admit right away, in a way that will not hurt you, that he is otherwise attached.\nBest of Luck, chum !\n:-))

im looking for business grants to start a deli.?

Go to the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) http://www.cfda.gov and Grants.gov - these are two sites created by the federal government to provide transparency and information on grants. But you'd be hard pressed to find any grant that would support a for-profit venture such as a mortgage or daycare business. It is hard to find grants for individuals, harder still to find one that would support a for-profit business.\n\nMost of the federal grants are given to specific target groups with specific requirements (e.g. minority business owners involved in transportation related contracts emanating from DOT - Grant#20.905 Disadvantaged Business Enterprises Short Term Lending Program \n\nGrants are also often given to non profit groups or organizations involved in training or other similar activities (grant 59.043 Women's Business Ownership Assistance that are given to those who will create women's business center that will train women entrepreneurs \n\nEven SBA does NOT give out grants. From the SBA website http://www.sba.gov/expanding/grants.html... \n\n"The U.S. Small Business Administration does not offer grants to start or expand small businesses, although it does offer a wide variety of loan programs. (See http://www.sba.gov/financing for more information) While SBA does offer some grant programs, these are generally designed to expand and enhance organizations that provide small business management, technical, or financial assistance. These grants generally support non-profit organizations, intermediary lending institutions, and state and local governments."\n\nFor private grants, you may want to check the Foundation Center's Foundation Grants for Individuals Online. It's a subscription based website ($9.95 per month) but their opening blurb only says that the database is ideal for "students, artists, academic researchers, libraries and financial aid offices." Entrepreneurs are apparently not one of them, so I take it they also don't have listings of private foundations who give grants to would-be entrepreneurs.


I believe if you go into control panel... there is a Users icon, and if you can create a new account through that.

Because it's just much easier to complain I guess. Some people lack the motivation to try to make a change.


Should governments take a stand against this execution?

That's why we are in Iraq.  If you say they don't value human life some people won't believe you.  When you read an article like this, then you can understand.  They are freak'n nuts and they want to kill you for even asking the question.  Man!  They are total wack-jobs!  Slavery, abuse, bigotry, and all sorts of backwards crap.  If you say we should leave them alone, stand the heck by.  You'll have your turn.  Cause here they come into your house, telling you what to do.\n\nYes, governments should not tolerate the loss of life because someone wants to walk into a building and worship.\n\nWe all don't like Tom Cruise and make fun of him on a regular basis, but if he wants to be a wack-job he can.  He just can't hurt anyone becuase we like South Park over him. :)

Was florence Nightingale a pediatric nurse? if you nw please e-mail @ sophatwithaph1@yahoo.com?

Florence Nightingale is most remembered as a pioneer of nursing and a reformer of hospital sanitation methods.\n\n\nFlorence Nightingale made history with her nursing work in the Crimean War and helped shake up the field of medicine. \n\nI dont think they had specific nursing titles. but she did a lot more than just nursing frm what i read throughout the information. such as she invented the pie chart. I included some sights that i think you might get alot of information off of. I hope this helps you. :)


how penis erection and how much it require of blood?


do you believe in ghosts and paranormal?

Picture this. We have a place here called the Dam. It's a river with a dam on it that drops into a waterfall about 20-25 feet down. On one side it is said there is an old Indian burial ground which you shouldn't go there if you are under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Since I am half Indian I wanted to go explore over on the other side. One day I left work and as I drove by there I saw a stump almost ready to go over the dam by 15'. So I decided to go save it from it's peril. As I was bending over to reach it I slipped on the rocks. Someone grabbed me from behind and pulled me back. When I looked around there was no one there. I stood there wondering what the hell just happened. I pulled my stump up and brought it up to my car. loaded it and was gonna drive away. I changed my mind and went back to the river. I saw how far I would've have fallen and where I would have landed which wasn't pretty. I said to no one "thank-you". All of a sudden the wind came and circled around me. I was watching the leaves to know the direction it was blowing. The next day my boyfriend asked me if there was any trouble at work. I told him no and asked him why. He said to look at my arm. On my upper arm there were four bruises. When he put his hand there, his fingers covered up the bruises. There was a faint bruise on top where the thumb went. So my answer is yes, I believe.


what is better a 7mm-08 rem, or a 308 win ?

My preferance between the two would be the .308.  There's a great deal of ammunition for this caliber in a wide range of bullet types and weights to suit any need you might ever have.  Since it is a standard NATO chambering (7.62mm), there is a great deal of cheap, high quality ammunition to practice with avalible. It is a very accurate cartridge and is capable of taking almost any large game in North America.  You can even hunt smaller game if you like by selecting a lower bullet weight loading. You can't go wrong with a .308 anyway you look at it!


I presume we are talking electronics here. Nano technology implies that circuits are of the order of nanometres(very very small). The problems with this is that as the tracks in an integrated circuit (IC) get closer together they interfer with each other through heat, magnetic field effect and electric field effects. The benefits are that because track lengths are small the wires between components do not have to be treated as transmission lines (complicated) at the very high frequencies we demand of modern electronics. \n\nIn sum it is more difficult but gives better results.
