what kind of disease a little boy 3 years old, with headache, vomiting with 39.7C temperature, wbc 21.000 mm3?

The child may have a bacterial infection as suggested by the fever and high wbc which are fairly reliable indicators. However, without further history and physical exam a diagnosis can't be made. And there are other disease states that may cause high fever and white count. An online diagnoses shouldn't be made in the first place. Since you know the child's WBC I'm assuming he/she has seen a physician. \n\nDespite having 19 grandchildren (and that's an honor and I applaud her), the above answerer has no way of knowing what's wrong with your child, wbc's that high suggest something other than a virus. Grandmothers are nice, but follow your Physicians orders.


There is no "Crown of Turin", but if you are referring to the Shrowd of Turin (which is an honest mistake, they sound similar) then:\n\nThe Shroud of Turin is reputedly Christ's burial cloth. It has been a religious relic since the Middle Ages. To believers it was divine proof the Christ was resurrected from the grave, to doubters it was evidence of human gullibility and one of the greatest hoaxes in the history of art.\n\nNo one has been able to prove that it is the burial cloth of Jesus of Nazareth, but its haunting image of a man's wounded body is proof enough for true believers.\n\nThe Shroud of Turin, as seen by the naked eye, is a negative image of a man with his hands folded. The linen is 14 feet, 3 inches long and 3 feet, 7 inches wide. The shroud bears the image of a man with wounds similar to those suffered by Jesus.\n\nThe shroud is wrapped in red silk and kept in a silver chest in the Chapel of the Holy Shroud in the Cathedral of St. John the Baptist in Turin, Italy since 1578.\n\nThe shroud is unquestionably old. Its history is known from the year 1357, when it surfaced in the tiny village of Lirey, France. Until recent reports from San Antonio, most of the scientific world accepted the findings of carbon dating carried out in 1988. The results said the shroud dated back to 1260-1390, and thus is much too new to be Jesus' burial linen.

i guess you mean hand-held electronic calculator which uses chip.\n\nTexas, a company, made the first electronic calculator. Jack Kilby, who invented chip (Robert Noyce too is credited to be the inventor of chip), worked in the team which made the first calculator.\n\nThe first calculator did not have the screen but it printed the result on a thermal paper using printer attached to the calculator itself. Don't get the idea of the printer being very large. The first calculator was small enough to be used conveniently.

if i want to do business management for undergraduate should i go to lib arts or business school?

If possible, you should figure out what you want to do as a career and pick an appropriate undergraduate major.  After a few years of work experience, then you can get into business school for your MBA.\n\nCareer-wise, going to a big university is better.  Small schools especially in rural areas have few students and is not worth the trip for employers.  Also, large companies have targetted core schools that they recruit from.


Where was or is the garden of Eden and is there still Cherubim and a flaming sword gaurding it?

The garden of Eden WAS in the East of Eden, at the headwaters of a great river which flowed out of the garden and divided into four rivers. (Genesis 2:8-14)\n\nWhen the Flood happened (Gen. 7) it REALLY messed up the real estate, and the garden was destroyed, so there is no need to have a Cherubim standing guard.

Life – it has a meaning and loving purpose - you just have to find your purpose and live it.\n\nI believe every person is here for a definite purpose. Each person is special and valuable; that refers to me, you, your family, friends, in fact everybody! There is a loving plan for each of our lives here on earth and there is no such thing as coincidence. I don't believe that anything in life happens by chance and that every aspect of our lives points to something deeper.\n\nYou need to decide now to live for God rather than for yourself. You spend your life on Earth preparing yourself (as best you can) for death. I don't see death as a scary, negative experience, but birth into a bliss filled eternal life with God. I believe that this is something you have to consciously choose or not during your life on earth.\n\nThe meaning of life is for us to discover that we are true children of an infinitely loving and merciful God, to find out what our responsibilities are to our Creator, and to fulfill those responsibilities. Each of us is called to affirm, accept and develop the talents God has given us.


What is the distance from earth to Saturn? (smallest)?

Maximum Distance from Earth:\n1,658,854,980 km\n\nMinimum Distance from Earth:\n1,195,772,020 km\n\nCheck source: http://www.absoluteastronomy.com/planets/saturn.htm\n\n---------------------------------------------------\nAnother Answer:\nSaturn is 8.833 A.U. away from Earth. To get that distance in kilometers, multiply the A.U. distance by 149,600,000. To get that distance in miles, multiply the A.U. distance by 93,000,000. So Saturn is 1,321,416,800 kilometers from Earth (8.833x149,600,000) and 821,190,000 miles from Earth today (8.833x93,000,000).\n\nSource: http://www.windows.ucar.edu/cgi-bin/tour_def/kids_space/distance.html

what do you call that statue on farms to scare the birds away?

Hi there,\n\nIt is called a scarecrow.\n\nEtymology:\n\nc.1200, from O.N. skirra "to frighten," related to skjarr "timid, shy," of unknown origin. The noun is attested from 1530. To scare up "procure, obtain" is first recorded 1846, Amer.Eng., from notion of rousing game from cover. Scarecrow first recorded 1553, earliest ref. is to a person employed to scare birds. Stick-figure sense is implied by 1589. Scary is first recorded 1582; scaremonger is from 1888. To scare up "find, produce" is 1853, from the notion of hunters rousing game Scared stiff first recorded 1900; scared shitless is from 1936. Scaredy-cat "timid person" first attested 1933, in Dorothy Parker. \n\nrule wid style n luv@vinny


why do i keep doing the same thing over and over even though i know its not working but expect things to chang

It just means that you are a creature of habit, as I like to put it.  You need to break out of this cycle that you are in and find a way to make the things that you want to happen a reality and not just some distant dream.  Knowing that the things you are doing aren't helping you to accomplish your goals is the first step, now incorporating the willpower to stop yourself from backsliding into that same pattern is the next.  Change is not always easy and sometimes it come with a price, but the end result is always worth it.  Good Luck!!

Why is it that guys tell you he likes you but then when you call him he doesn't answer?

Well, you must remember most guys are lazy when it comes to phone conversations. They like to talk in person. It seems to be a good feeling to have the girl present when conversating. Now, if you keep calling and he doesn't answer, then it means he was "playing" you girl. Though you must consider the fact that he's probably afraid of losing a wonderful girl like you and he wants to take things a little slow.  Give him some time.  Set a time to meet again and hang out a little more or have him plan things out with you.  He will eventually warm up to you and then you won't have to worry about phone calls because he'll be there by your side to conversate with you in person. Just remember that men are a bit slow. LOL. Be a little patient if he's worth the time. Sometimes, you might have to get to know the guy a little more to find his sweet self.

how does temperature affect the speed of water?

Water is a Newtonian fluid, meaning its shear stress is linearly proportional to rate of shearing strain. Agitation will not affect its viscosity. Pressures will not affect it either unless they are extremely high.\n\nThe viscosity of water generally decreases as temperature increases. Water at 32ºF has an absolute viscosity of 1.794 cp (centipoise). At 200ºF, its viscosity will have decreased to .305 cp.\n\nThis means that water will flow slightly more easily at higher temperatures.\n\nFor some mathematical models, check out this link:\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temperature_dependence_of_liquid_viscosity

Who had control over canada before britain?

*Shrugging my furry shoulders* Well of course first came native americans, they spread to both of the American hemispheres. \n\nThe time line runs basically...\nInhabited for millennia by First Nations.\nFirst Nations is a term for ethnicity used in Canada to replace the word "Indian". It refers to the Indigenous peoples of North America located in what is now Canada, and their descendants, who are not Inuit or Métis. The proper terms to refer to the First Nations, Inuit, and Métis collectively is Aboriginal peoples or First peoples or Indigenous peoples, tribes, or nations. A national representative body of the "First Nations" in Canada is the Assembly of First Nations.\n\nBasque exploration\nBasque fishermen (primarily whalers) from southern Europe began fishing the Grand Banks as early as the 15th century. They primarily hunted arctic bowhead and white whales for their blubber (which produced whale oil) and their plates of baleen, used in dressmaking. By the mid-16th century, at least nine fishing outposts had been established on Labrador and Newfoundland. The largest of these settlements was the Red Bay station, with an estimated 900 people. At the height of Basque whaling, about 2000 people were employed each summer. However, the operation had largely collapsed by the early 1600s as the two whale species were hunted to near-extinction and many Basques whaling ships were pressed into service by the Spanish navy.\n\nEarly colonial period: The rise and fall of "New France" (Nouvelle-France) 1604-1763\nIn the 16th and 17th centuries English and French colonists established settlements in eastern Canada largely to support fishing or fur trade. French settlement began with Samuel de Champlain and Pierre Dugua, Sieur de Monts, first in Acadia in 1604, then Quebec City in 1608.\n\nAs New France was established over an extremely vast expanse of territory, the French had to secure the cooperation of the various amerindian nations, in effect creating a new hybrid civilization which allied Amerindian technology with French values.\n\nOver the next 150 years, Canada and Acadia continued to expand from the heartland of the St Lawrence River into the upper country (pays d'en haut) of the Great Lakes and the Mississippi Valley of North America. Their expansion was opposed by the Wyandot (Hurons), the Iroquois, and more significantly the British, who waged a series of wars (French and Indian Wars) that cost France first Acadia, then Canada. Under British rule, Acadians were expelled in 1755. France was defeated at Louisburg in 1758 and at the decisive Battle of the Plains of Abraham at Quebec City in 1759. By the Treaty of Paris in 1763, France kept its Caribbean island colonies but lost almost all of its North American colonies to Britain and Spain. Of its northern possessions, all that was retained were the tiny fishing outposts of Saint-Pierre and Miquelon. Subsequently, only the French élite was repatriated, leaving the peasants at the mercy of the British conquerors, who tolerated the Canadians' Roman Catholic faith under the terms of the treaty.\n\nBritish imperial control 1763-1849\nBritish North America (BNA) was reduced with the American Revolution to the colonies of Newfoundland, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island and Quebec. The American Revolution was in part triggered by the necessity of accommodating 60,000 Catholic Francophones. To accommodate the many American Loyalists who were persecuted and expelled from the United States during and after the revolution, Britain created in 1784 the province of New Brunswick and, in 1791, divided Quebec into two provinces: Lower Canada and Upper Canada.\n\nBritish colonies were drawn into the War of 1812 between Britain and the United States, one of the effects of which was the first rise of a sense of nationalism amongst the British North American population. Subsequent disputes that arose between BNA and the U.S. over trade, fishing, and boundari


how do you know if you're over it or just in denial?

You're not over it or in denial because you are just trying to get on with your life rather than trying to get him back.  It doesn't mean you didn't love him because you are trying to go on with your life; it just mean that your mind has made up its mind to do what it needs to do to start living again.  It will take time but in the meantime; I think your body and mind is trying to survive through all that has been going on.

do you need special training to open up a childcare business?

It is different with each state.  You need to look at your state government website to see if there is info or who to contact.  In Louisiana, to be a director, you need either 1 or 2 years of experience working in a daycare.  The building has to meet certain specifications, and they have square foot per child requirements.  Also, there are worker/child ratios that are smaller for younger children and larger for older children.\n\nAgain, find your state government website and start there on your search for the regulations.

Hiccups are gulping sounds caused by involuntary spasms of the diaphragm. The diaphragm is the muscle that separates the chest and abdomen and helps with breathing. Hiccups can be triggered if you eat too much or too fast, consume very hot or cold foods and beverages, or drink carbonated beverages. Other causes include cold showers, entering or leaving a hot or cold room, sudden excitement, and stress. \nHiccups are not a serious medical condition and usually disappear on their own within a few minutes. If they last longer than 24 hours, hiccups may be a sign of another condition or injury. You should see your health care provider if you experience prolonged hiccuping. \n\nHome remedies are usually the primary treatment for hiccups, although no one is really sure how well they work. Hiccup home remedies include sneezing, being suddenly frightened, holding your breath, gargling, drinking pineapple juice, drinking water rapidly, sipping ice water, or swallowing dry granulated sugar. These activities may help by altering breathing patterns.

Is there any such thing as common sense?

In a way, yes. It is the wisdom of your experiences. If someone doesn't act in their own best interest, or if they don't understand the simplest wisdom, we say they don't have "common sense". Another way of putting it is "They just don't know stuff that normal people should know." The more that you communicate with your local community, the more common wisdom you will have and spread around. As we get more isolated behind books and computers, we lose a lot of our 'common' sense of things that even "common people" would know.

The simplest way is not to show it to visitors :-)\nI guess, you want your visitors to hear the music and not to get the file.

If he's threatening to take your son away from you it's because he feels threatened.  He's insecure and wrong for using your son as a tool to manipulate you.  If you've already tried to discuss the topic and he continues to restrict you from going out, you should seek counseling.  If that doesn't work, use your best judgement. No one should have to feel threatened in a marriage.

DNA replicates for cell division.  The new cell gets the same DNA as the parent cell.  DNA replicates during mitosis.  DNA also replicates into RNA.  This is done inside the nucleus.  RNA is the exact opposite copy of DNA.  RNA aids in the synthesis of proteins.  The RNA goes to the ribosomes and synthesizes proteins.

Why is there more static electricity in my home during winter than at any other season?

Because winter has the driest air of any season.\nThere is generally less general moisture in the air.  On top of that, people usually have the heat on in the home, which dries the air out even more.\n\nWant to cut down the static electricity?  Buy and use a humidifier.


Do you think life is worth living if you're extremely fat?

I think as long as there is breath in your body life is worth living. There is always something new around the next corner. As one who was "morbidly" obese and had surgery to fix that I can say life is much better now however life wasn't so bad then just harder. Peoples attitudes were the hardest things to deal with when they would look at you with disgust in their eyes or just make rude comments... heck they didnt even know me or my medical conditions!!!!

How can you tell when someone needs a psychologist and when he needs a psychiatrist?

A psychologist can diagnose some disorders, but the main difference is whether medication is needed or not.  A psychiatrist is a medical doctor.  They go to med school, and then on to specialty courses and training in mental health. A psychologist cannot prescribe meds, but a psychiatrist can.  A psychologist however, does have knowledge of meds, and can suggest that certain ones be prescribed to your doctor, who can then prescribe them.  Hope this helps.

What do you know about this week's Parsha?

Aliya, nothing deep, i am not a deep person, but for last week, i liked this:::\n\n""""Rabbi Simcha Bunem of Pesicha said that we can learn how to serve God properly from observing the ways of the thief!!\n\nOne: The thief is not deterred by darkness, rain or cold. He goes about his profession.\nTwo: If he does not succeed the first time, he tries again and again until he is successful.\nThree: He does not look down his nose at what is small, but he steals everything he can get his hands on, whether valuable or cheap.\n \nIn the same vein, , the servant of Gd should serve Gd day and night, rain or shine. If he tries and fails he should try again. He should consider no mitzvah to be beneath his dignity but should strive to serve Gd in all matters, both large and small.\n \nThe Maggid of Mezritch taught, as recorded in the book Ten Lights: We can learn how to serve Gd properly from observing the ways of the child.\n\nOne: A child is always happy\nTwo: A child is never idle. He is always busy with something\nThree: When a child wants something, he cries.\n \nIn the same vein, one should always serve Gd with joy, one should be engaged in a mitzvah at every moment, and one should never hesitate to pray for ones needs.\n \nOn another occasion Rabbi Simcha Bunem taught: We can learn the service of Gd from the game of checkers:\n\nOne: You can only move forward, not backwards.\nTwo: You can only move one step at a time.\nThree: Once you have reached the final row, and only then, you can move any way you like.""""

how to write a good research on ; Armed Conflicts in Africa and the Refugee Question. The Case of Sierra Leone

Words of wisdom from an old college professor of mine ...\nwrite your paper as if the reader knows nothing about the subject.\n\nConflicts is plural.  It would be helpful if you identify several conflicts, then zero in on one conflict that seems to best summarize all conflicts in the region. \n\nMake sure to answer the following questions in your report:\n\nWho - who are the parties to the conflicts?\n\nWhat - is the nature of the conflict?  There should be at least two opposing perspectives.\n\nWhen - When did the conflict begin?\n\nWhere - Where did the conflict begin, and how expansive is the conflict now?  In other words, did it start in one village and now consumes the entire country, region or continent?\n\nHow - How did the conflict begin?  Did one warlard begin the oppression to fill a power vacuum?\n\nWhy - Why did the conflict begin?  What were the circumstances that were present that allowed the conflict to start and grow?  In other words, did a powerful leader or group of leaders cease to rule thereby allowing the warlords to initiate their own plan for rule?\n\nRemember, written history is always about perspective.  One journalist may have one perspective and write about a situation, while another journalist may have a completely different perspective.  For example, a Muslim journalist may see the warlord power grab in Sierra Leone in a very different light than a western journalist.  So, you will ultimately produce a better paper if you read different perspectives, then draw your own conclusions.  Your conclusions should not be based on your emotions, but rather cause and effect.  To be more specific, avoid emotive statements like:  What's happening in Darfur is wrong because it is unjust.  Rather, explain how it is unjust.  Search out any statistics on quality of life in Sierra Leone before the conflict, then compare to quality of life now.  In other words, be objective!\n\nThen, after you have your research and your perspective, create an outline.  Like this ...\n\n1. Who\n    A.  Party #1\n    B.  Party #2\n2. What is the nature of the conflict\n    A.  Explain the most obvious part of the conflict\n    B.  Explain a secondary part of the conflict\nEtc...\n\nWhen you're ready to begin writing the paper, create your openning paragraph in such a way as to introduce your reader to the subject matter in the most general way.  Then follow your outline to provide more specifics.\n\nDo make sure to bibliograph your paper.  Meaning, if you  learn that, for example that, 100,000 people have been displaced from their homes, insert a # behind your point in the body of your text.  Then at the very end of your paper tally the numbers and next to each cite the reference. This will be your "Bibliography Page". For example, the following sentence might be in the body of your report:  \n\n"100,00 people were displaced from their homes."1\n\nThen your bibliograpy page should correspond.\n\n#1 - Article from Newsweek, Vol. 1, page 42, written by John Doe.\n\nMake sure to be concise, no run-on sentences, use complete sentences, check your spelling, try to make it interesting by using adjectives, then write the paper like the person reading it has never heard of the subject matter before. \n\nIf this assignment is for grade or high school, I would attach a neatly typed copy of the outline to the back of your paper, behind the bibliography page.  By doing so, you'll show your teacher how you organized your content, and might get extra points for its inclusion.\n\nRemember, the point of the assignment is for you and your reader to learn about the subject.  Oh, and have fun doing it.  That grey matter between your ears is longing to be exercised!

why are employees losing their pensions?

Pensions are OLD FASHIONED.\nPensions are for when people can actually afford to retire, the pension is a private fund that the COMPANY controls on your behalf... sounds like a conflict of interst thing? would you trust big corporations like Enron with your pensiion??? This more about character or the lack of it... The big corporations used pension plans for theie own greed, laws have changed and so the future for pension plans is very bleak

what about dating out side of your race?

It's just like dating inside of your race.  The only difference is there are some short-sighted, uptight people that have a rediculous notion that race matters in who you spend time with.  That might become annoying.  But those people are not worth your time.  If you find someone that you enjoy hanging out with and are attracted to, then date!  Have fun!\n\nAnd as a bonus, if people of two different races go on to make babies, they have the most beautiful children!


how would u know if a guy likes u cause  i like this guy?

The best thing to do is tell him you like him and see what he says. If he likes you, then he will tell you at that time. If he doesn't like you, he'll probably say something like, "I never knew that you liked me" or something, and not give you and answer on how he feels.

If you had to pick one specific moment of your life that made you who you are, what would it be?

When I went to my first day of grade school we were seated alphabetically, so I wound up next to this kid from India. Being so noticeably different he didn't talk much to anyone, so within a month he was more or less shunned by everybody (including myself).\nOne day the teacher was out of the room and a spitball fight erupted, but as usual the kid from India just sat there doing nothing. About a minute into the chaos I saw him wad up an entire sheet of paper and stick it in his mouth. He didn't throw it, he just kept working it in his mouth until his saliva turned it into a pulp. When he finally let it fly it hit the blackboard with a splatt and left a mess of paper bits about two feet in diameter. There was a collective "whoa" from the rest of the class before the spitball fight continued, but this kid just sat there with a little grin on his face, saying nothing the whole time.\nNeedles to say I was incredibly impressed. To a six year old boy there's not a whole lot that compares to a perfect spitball, so I knew right  then that I just found a new best friend. \nI suppose when I look back, it was my friendship with this kid that first allowed me to open up to other cultures, and eventually to the beauty in other religions.\nIn a very real way, I owe my spiritual development to a spitball.


do i really need and antivirus software on my pc?

Well, no, it is not required, but it sure is nice to have.\n\nA virus getting into your computer can do some real damage and cause a lot of problems, possibly causing the loss of important files.

Let this person know that you believe working in that position is an opportunity for a valuable career & that it would be beneficial and pleasing to you because.. & then I would write When you are ready to fill the job opening please place me in it!\nAnd.. If they stump you with a question, stall them by answering with the question -Why do you ask?- or some question. Emergency answer -I am always sucessful because I give my best to everything. You get out of problems and into solutions!


In a diet, what is the "BMR"? and how is it calculated?

BMR Stands to Base Metabolic, Your BMR will indicate how many calories you need to take in to maintain your current weight.  In simple terms, if you take in less than this amount you will lose weight and, if you take in more, you will gain weight.\n\nto calculate yor BMR use this formula\n\nFor Women:\n\nBMR = 655 + (4.36 x your weight in pounds) + (4.32 x your height in inches)- (4.7 x age)\n\n \nFor Men:\n\nBMR = 66 + (6.22 x your weight in pounds) + (12.7 x your height in inches)  (6.8 x your age)


Do you think the death penatly is right?

Lets start with this-- we know for a fact at least one innocent person has been executed, we know that chances are a significant number more have been and that DNA evidence has in fact exonerated many death row inmates. so point a. innocence. secondly, the hypocrasy of this procedure is revolting-- we cannot give ourselves the moral highground if we are taking lives. thirdly contrary to many pro-death penalty advocates it actually costs more to execute an inmate than jail him or her for life and finally, it is a relic of a primordial need for vengance-- yes, if my sister were raped and murdered I would want the man who did it dead, but morally I could not encourage the government to act on my desires because I feel that the dominion over life belongs to the divine creator of life not to a fatally flawed system


I need activation by telephone Norton Internet Segurity 2006?


The game was probably invented in late medieval Scotland, with the first written reference to a contest using stones on ice coming from the records of Paisley Abbey, Renfrewshire, in February, 1541. Two paintings (both dated 1565 [1]) by Pieter Brueghel the Elder depict Dutch peasants curling (Scotland and the Low Countries had strong trading and cultural links during this period, which is also evident in the history of golf).\n\nThe word curling first appears in print in 1620 in Perth, Scotland, in the preface and the verses of a poem by Henry Adamson.

How do I stop being mad at my husband for deploying when it's his job. I feel like a single parent to my son.

Support groups can be really great.  You should also make sure that you and your son are getting out and doing things: go to the park, the zoo, visit friends and relatives, etc.  It is too easy sometimes to spend too much time at home alone and kind of living your life on "hold" while your spouse is gone.  \n\nBesides, if you and your son stay active it will make the time go by faster, and you'll have more to tell hubby when you talk to him! :)

Good luck then. Cable is better then phone. Because the speed requiements are faster. your telephone is only 1.54 MBits now cable modem speeds are 8 mbits in most areas. I would go with cable if I where you. But don't want it then you need to go with a T1 which will run you about 300 to 400 a month. Proved you provide your own router and CSU/DSU.\nThe router will set you back about $2,500 and the CSU/DSU will set you back about 200 to 500 a month. I would recommend you just get cable.

how the web crawlers works and what is it?

Let's say you write a program (in either Java or .Net) to retrieve the contents of a single web page.  Then, in your program, you search the page for links to other pages.  Next, recursively, you retrieve those pages and search for links on them.  Etc.  Etc.\n\nYou save all the links in a database with (perhaps) the text content of the page.  You rerun this process nightly and build you "portfolio" of linked pages.\n\nYou might "prime" you database with links from known pages with links to lots of other pages.  Over time, you will have lots of links...

What are the reason liver cells become abnormal?

becoming an abnormal liver cell is just like the rest of the other cells inside the body. If there's any kinds of cell having an abnormal growth (either by size, colour & shape), not to mention having a great significant increase in amount,  that's because they had been induced by a carcinogenic factors. Carcinogenic factors are the factors which lead to cancer. An abnormal growth of cell could become worse if there's no early treatment of prevention.

My heart goes out to you and your sister.  People DO survive lung cancer.  Taking chemo is a tough decision to make, it can destroy the quality time you may have left IF  hers is NOT in a curable stage.  Most doctors WILL give honest answers IF the patients ASK:  Is my cancer curable?  What are my chances of surviving with surgery only?  What are my chances of surviving WITH and WITHOUT chemo? Or  WITH and WITHOUT radiation?\nShe might need you to go with her to ask these questions, (I encourage you to WRITE DOWN your questions, and let the doctor SEE you have a list of questions...) for the support, and so you can reaffirm what she was told.   An amazing number of people are unable to clearly remember and process the info they are given when the disease is life-threatening.  If you were with her, and later she can't quite recall the information, you could gentley help her work through the answers.\n Encourage her to get second opinions if she feels she needs more information.  Not EVERY form of cancer, not EVERY patient is good candidate for chemo.  Chemo can often cause more life ravaging consequences than the cancer itself.  I can understand her hesitancy in NOT jumping into chemotherapy.  Please do not let anyone make her feel like a "quitter" or guilty for NOT choosing chemo IF HERS IS not curable.  Perhaps she will choose to focus her fight on maintaining her dignity, independence, and quality of life as long as she is able to- IF HERS IS NOT IN A CURABLE STAGE.  \nSometimes radiation and other cancer treatments are given as a palliative measure, meaning it will not CURE the cancer, but hopefully if can keep the tumors from causing decreasing function of of organs in the chest, or from causing increased pain.\nIf it IS treatable, and if it IS a stage of cancer that will repond to surgery, chemo, and radiation, etc, it may make it easier for her to bear the treatments if she knows she DOES have a chance to survive.  She has a right to that information about her own particular stage of cancer before she makes the choice. Take care, I wish you both well.


why there is no solar or lunar eclipse at full and new moon day?

if you mean like a new moon (solar eclipse) <every new moon, and a full mooon (lunar eclipse) <every full moon:\n\nbecause the earth and moon are not on the same plane, and the moon is in a higher altitude than earth, and the moon only crosses sometimes into the earth's plane with the sun.

How often should I exercise, and how long?

For my students, I instruct them to do workout for from 2-6 times a week, and at least 3 total hours a week but not more than 6 hours unless they reach advanced level. For beginners, once a week for 30 min for 1 month. 2nd stage, 2-3 times a week for total hours of 1.5 for 1 month. If you can keep that up after 2 months, then increase frequency and duration to your needs.


how can a young widow take care of four children all alone?

I'm going to go out on a limb here and make some suppositions. Since you said you are a young widow, I will assume that your four children are young as well. I will further assume that at least one of them is too young to even go to school or goes to school a half day. I'm going to also assume that your mega paying job reguires a mega amount of hours and you don't get a lot of time with your children. So, your choice is to provide for your children financially or emotionally, but you are worried that you can't do both. How am I doing so far?\n\nIf I am close, the most obvious answer is to use a nanny or other care giver. That would at least mean that your children will have someone to take care of their physical needs. A better answer might be to use friends and relatives to help take care of them. This is better because they can give more love to the children than a nanny would.\n\nI should probably mention another possibility. Getting remarried. Taking care of children is tough. It is much easier with two people.

Let me ask you this and it is coming from a loving place.  Do you have a life outside of your friendship with Sue?  Do you have a man?  Are there feelings of jealousy?  \n\nI ask this because based on your questions you appear upset because Sue is spending more time with her man and not the girls.  You are prepared to cut someone you call a friend out of your life because you are not getting what you want i.e.  "I don't get to talk to Sue as much as I want to. My other friend and I don't like it that's she is treating us like a spare tire"\n\nWhile friendship is important and can sometimes be the spice of life, intimacy is also very important to life.  New relationships take time to develop.  \n\nNot only that, but if she allows you to dictate the terms of her relationship now when will it stop.  Where does she draw the line?  Why do you get to dictate how much is too much time to spend with her boyfriend?\n\nIf you love your friend, don't be so selfish and stop actiling like a spoiled little child.  Is it wise or mature on your part to get mad when you don't get what you want.  If you start cutting your friends loose now because you can't have your way, when will you stop.  Hopefully it won't be when you are alone and have no friends to talk to.  \n\nAre you really a friend or someone trying to fulfill your wants and desires through someone else.\n\nFrom my personal experience, going one day without talking has never killed any of my friendships.  Heck, I have life long friends that I have not talked to in months, but that is not enough to destroy our friendship.  We all have too many other things going on in our lives than to worry about who is doing what and why has't she called me today.  \n\nThe best advice I could give you is to grow up and get a life of your own.  I can guarantee if you were out participating in just a fraction of what life has to offer you won't have the time to wonder why Sue has not called you.  In fact, you may find you are enjoying life so much that weeks have gone by and you have not called Sue.

Are there any (summer) outdoor adventure programs for moms and their grade-school age children?

Contact Ricardo or Trista and tell them Judi Murphy suggested you contact them.  Their Hawk Circle program - link below, includes a summer camp, college credit programs - I'm not sure if they have what you are looking for - but I trust them implicitly.  If they cannot accommodate you - they are likely to know who has what you need.


Hi, I've already answered this question here so I'll quote myself:\nEcosystem is short for ecological system. What does "system" mean in this context? A complex system is a group of elements that are inter-related; the outcome of those interelationships produces a structure and functions so that the system is more than the sum of its component parts.\nIn the case of ecosystems, the elements are biotic (living, i.e. animals, plants, fungi, etc.) and abiotic (soil, air, water, etc.). All functions and relationships among these components are also part of the ecosystem, including feeding and all types of symbioses. You can examine the structure and functions separately, but the ecosystem is a whole where every element depends on others and is depended on. There are matter, energy and information fluxes running continuously in and out of it.

How do i check the ink-level in my printer?

ok shirley, following the instructions the others have suggested get me to where i need to go, but they do not reveal any ink levels, which is what i expected.\n\nnot all printers allow you to check the ink levels on your system.  mine is a laser and there is a menu on the printer which allows me to find the usage.  however, my daughters doesn't have either.\n\nsometimes you need to watch it yourself.  if you feel that the ink carts you have in the machine have been printing for like forever, feel free to get a new one as a back up.  keep it in a cool dry place, as a warm dry place will dry out the cartridge if kept there too long.\n\nwatch the pages as they print.  when you notice that the ink is getting lighter or you begin to see streaks in the printing it is time to replace the cartridge.  if you are able and wanting to refill them, DO NOT RUN the cartridge empty, as it will ruin the cart and you will not be able to refill it.  once you remove it from the printer, you may dispose of it, place it in a plastic zip close bag with a slightly damp paper towel until it can be refilled, or use it at your local officemax/staples to get a free ream of paper, or maybe your local video store will give you a free movie rental if you turn it in.\n\nagai, not all printers allow you this opportunity.\n\nhope this helps\ngood luck

my bf went to iraq and told me he didnt want me to put my life on hold for him is there a hidden meaning?

I think it would be safe to say that he isn't going to forget you, why? he made the ultimate sacrifice for you. He told you to date others even though he wants you for himself. He could of said while i am gone do not see anyone else, but instead he put you before him. I would assure him that you are here for him and will be here for him when he gets back. A man who puts the woman first really cares and loves her.

Why are people so fanatic that they just believe everything in the Bible?

Because they Don't know anything about false info or even the very clear contradiction in it like\n\nWho incited David to count the fighting men of Israel? \n\n(a) God did (2 Samuel 24: 1) \n\n(b) Satan did (I Chronicles 2 1:1) \n\n\nIn that count how many fighting men were found in Israel? \n\n(a) Eight hundred thousand (2 Samuel 24:9) \n\n(b) One million, one hundred thousand (IChronicles 21:5) \n\n\nHow many fighting men were found in Judah? \n\n(a) Five hundred thousand (2 Samuel 24:9) \n\n(b) Four hundred and seventy thousand (I Chronicles 21:5) \n\n\nGod sent his prophet to threaten David with how many years of famine? \n\n(a) Seven (2 Samuel 24:13) \n\n(b) Three (I Chronicles 21:12) \n\n\nHow old was Ahaziah when he began to rule over Jerusalem? \n\n(a) Twenty-two (2 Kings 8:26) \n\n(b) Forty-two (2 Chronicles 22:2) \n\n\n\n\nHow old was Jehoiachin when he became king of Jerusalem? \n\n(a) Eighteen (2 Kings 24: \n\n(b) Eight (2 Chronicles 36:9) \n\n\nHow long did he rule over Jerusalem? \n\n(a) Three months (2 Kings 24: \n\n(b) Three months and ten days (2 Chronicles 36:9) \n\n\nThe chief of the mighty men of David lifted up his spear and killed how many men at one time? \n\n(a) Eight hundred (2 Samuel 23: \n\n(b) Three hundred (I Chronicles 11: 11) \n\n\nWhen did David bring the Ark of the Covenant to Jerusalem? Before defeating the Philistines or after? \n\n(a) After (2 Samuel 5 and 6) \n\n(b) Before (I Chronicles 13 and 14) \n\n\nHow many pairs of clean animals did God tell Noah to take into the Ark? \n\n(a) Two (Genesis 6:19, 20) \n\n(b) Seven (Genesis 7:2). But despite this last instruction only two pairs went into the ark (Genesis 7:8-9) \n\nWhen David defeated the King of Zobah, how many horsemen did he capture? \n\n(a) One thousand and seven hundred (2 Samuel 8:4) \n\n(b) Seven thousand (I Chronicles 18:4) \n\n\nHow many stalls for horses did Solomon have? \n\n(a) Forty thousand (I Kings 4:26) \n\n(b) Four thousand (2 chronicles 9:25) \n\n\nIn what year of King Asa's reign did Baasha, King of Israel die? \n\n(a) Twenty-sixth year (I Kings 15:33 - 16: \n\n(b) Still alive in the thirty-sixth year (2 Chronicles 16:1) \n\n\nHow many overseers did Solomon appoint for the work of building the temple? \n\n(a) Three thousand six hundred (2 Chronicles 2:2) \n\n(b) Three thousand three hundred (I Kings 5:16) \n\nSolomon built a facility containing how many baths? \n\n(a) Two thousand (1 Kings 7:26) \n\n(b) Over three thousand (2 Chronicles 4:5) \n\n\nOf the Israelites who were freed from the Babylonian captivity, how many were the children of Pahrath-Moab? \n\n(a) Two thousand eight hundred and twelve (Ezra 2:6) \n\n(b) Two thousand eight hundred and eighteen (Nehemiah 7:11) \n\n\nBut The Quran makes the clear challenge, that if you are in doubt about it - then bring a book like it. Also, to bring ten chapters like it and then finally, to bring one single chapter like it. 1,400 years - and no one has been able to duplicate it's beauty, recitation, miracles and ease of memorization. Another challenge for the unbelievers to consider; "If this (Quran) were from other than Allah, you would find within it many contradictions." And yet, another challenge offered by Allah in the Quran is for the unbelievers to look around for evidences. Allah says He will show them His signs within themselves and on the farthest horizons.

Is Nassem Hamed aka "The Prince" returning to boxing? What division? Will he be as good as he was?

It's been four years since Hamed last fought. There have been a lot of rumors throughout the years that he would come back but they've all turned out to be false. Hamed himself claimed he would come back to boxing last November (2005), but most fans are doubtful about it. He's been overweight during the long layoff, so even if he does come back getting down to weight will take a lot out of him, and he won't be nearly as effective as he was in his prime.


Is it really better to finance a car to build credit even if you can pay cash for it?

That is true that when you buy a house they will check on your credit history, and it is true that there are other ways to buid credit, and it is true that you shouldn't pay interest if you don't need to.\nSo, it is your choice, in fact, you could finance your car, if you find another good use on the cash you have for it, like if you are thinking of some business and maybe will need the cash to finance it. Or if the momento of buy your house is close, you can use the cash for the initial pay, so you will need less money for the loan.\nBut if you wont use the cash, and that money would be just in a saving account, you should use it for the car, and get some other credits like in credit cards.\nSo, it depends on your needs, and your projects in general.

Do you believe that we need to regulate/control the information provided to us by the news?

there are many different sources of news today: the internet is good because of its immediate nature, tv and newspapers are good because they can provide and in-depth local slant on a story.  but if you try to stay on top of everything, you'll suffer from information overload. \n\nindividually:::if you are asking how to pick and choose between the wide variety, i think a person should take into account the time they have available to digest the news, and what things they feel they need to know.  i've customized my yahoo page to bring up only those sources i trust, so in a sense i've censored myself.  there's too much out there and i feel the need to draw a line.\n\nas a society:::on the other hand if you're asking how much of our national defense policy should we give away, or should we publicize crimes that might incite others to repeat them, then it's a much finer line, with much more at stake.  where does the public's right to know overlap the potential dangers to them?  it can be decided on a case-by-case basis, but do we really trust news editors to make that call for us? they are biased by their own opinions too, so what they want us to see and hear will be colored by that.  credibility is an issue when the media are businesses that exist to make money 1st and report 2nd.  it's small wonder that people view the mass media with more than a little suspicion.


Is it a good or a bad thing to have a meaningless relationship?

Neither really--it may sound cliche, but there is a time and place for meaningful relationships, and at other times you need the less complicated "meaningless" relationships.  I think what is more important is knowing what your needs are.  If you are not having the realationships you want, then things need to change.  If you are enjoying your life, whether in meaningful or meaningless relationships, then no change is required.  You should feel no guilt about NOT being in a really deep connection with someone.  It may not be the time for that in your life.


who determine(makes the rules),this or that country shoud or shoud not have nuclear power?

"Might makes right"\n\nWhoever is in power makes the rules.  Its always been that way, always will be.\n\nCurrently there is a situation between the West and the Middle East.  If the power structure was reversed, would the Middle East allow the West to have nukes?


It looks like the book is available at both Barnes and Noble and Amazon, though I did not find a free ebook anywhere.\n\nIf you dont want to pay for it, have you checked out a library?


i think i might not be able to have children, what could possibly be the problem?

Many things.....hormonal problems would be the main thing.  In one year, 90% of adult women who are trying to conceive will become pregnant.  After a year, that's when it's time to see a doctor.

am i going to get marry whom i love?is he going to get a job?

Sweetie he just wants to be able to take care of you. If you can tell he really loves you give it time...be patient. Good things come to those who wait. Take it as a good sign that he wants to work for you and give you all he can. It shows he is concerned about your well being. Trust me I went through the same thing and now I am happily married and he makes good money. This may sound very strange but tell him to watch for a hanging orange or red cloth...maybe many cloths hung in a row outside (like flags in size but not flags), gently moving in the breeze. If he sees this tell him to enter the place within and his luck might turn. Worth a shot anyways! Many blessings to you! :D

What do you think of the girl that scored 113 points?

Impressive, but considering she only got 1 point from the line, it tells you what kind of defense the other team was playing (none, basically).  From what I've heard the other team was pretty intimidated and didn't even attempt to foul her.\n\nNot as impressive as Lisa Leslie scoring 101 in a single HALF in high school.


How will the engineering job market be in 6-10 years?

Chemical engineers will see average growth in their job market over the next few years. You can find lots more specific information at the website below...it is an invaluable tool for anyone researching different occupations. Good luck!


What would happen if you dropped a small black hole on a planet?

A 100 kg black hole would be incredibly small. A black hole is an object that has a density so great its escape velocity is greater than the speed of light. For a 100 kg weight to be that dense it would have to have a radius smaller than 1.48*10^-25 meter. That´s smaller than a quark. If such an absurd object could form it would still be just a 100 kilo weight. It wouldn´t suck the earth in. Immediately... Earth still weighs more. It would simply fall towards earth but when it reaches the surface it would just keep on falling as it would be too small to hit anything. It would fall straight through the core and start falling upwards until gravity would make it settle there. Eventually though some matter in the core would come so close it would be captured by it. Remember that an object would have to move faster than the speed of light to escape a black hole. So the mass of the black hole would increase with time, feeding on earth. And as its mass grows it would capture matter in an increasingly greater rate. Eventually you would have a black hole with the mass of earth (+100 kg) orbiting the sun instead of the lush, blue planet we all know and love.

Is it right for people to protest in a way that they destroy thier own country like protest in Pakistan ?

Well for a bunch of Pakis... it is right, because all they learn from birth till suicide bomb death is how to become a suicide bomber.. So yes, for a bunch of morons, it is oaky...well, it  reduces America's burdern if pakis are destroying their own property...good.

Which Operating system is very popular in all over the world?

Windows is #1\nMac OS and Linux are also powerful players with a small but dedicated user base.\n\nWindows with Windows 2000, XP and 98 dominating. Followed by Mac OS X and Classic, and various Linux Distrbutions.  There is always some argument about Linux versus Mac market share numbers. Apple has sold a decent number of machines that all run Mac OS, and while Linux is an open source free OS that has lots of uses, it is still mostly limited to servers, techno geeks and the like. Some stats show then both around 3% to 5% worldwide OS use. With MS about 88% to 92%.  Some other niche players include Sun's Solaris, UNIX variants, which have been specialized for certain applications.


move to america.. you can find a nice place in Lawrence Massachusetts.. it is a cheap place to live and is near colleges


To Hindus:  Is it true that a person cannot convert to Hinduism, one must be born to it?

I am a convert to Hinduism.  So obviously, I believe one can convert.  I have never met a Hindu here in the USA who did not accept me as a Hindu.  However, I do know that some do believe you cannot convert.  So it just depends on who you ask.  There is no official "Church" in Hinduism which decides such matters.  There are many variations of thinking among Hindus.  So it is natural that you will find some differences of opinion on this.\n\nMost modern-day Hindus I have found accept me as a convert, as I have said, but many Hindus think it is odd that someone would convert to their religion, because they do not actively seek converts, and they teach that theirs is one among many valid paths to God.
