My wife had a friend that she would meet after work to have a beer and make-out.  Is this considered cheating?

First of all, I's like to thank you for responding to my question of last week.  \n\nGeorge, (if I may), all of those kisses belong to you.  Consider her attention as you would, let's say, money. Your emotional bond is an asset. She is spending it on someone other than you. \n\nI admire and understand your benevolence, and your faith in your marriage, but she is definitely sharing what belongs solely to you as her husband with another.  It would be as similar if you went and blew money on sending flowers to the most georgous woman you would like to go to bed with.  Would she be happy that you spent your money and attention on another woman.  I donno, maybe you should give it a shot.  If you do make it a real nice bouquet of expensive flowers and say something real romantic on the card and remind her of her own words "it was wrong, but since ....(there was no), sex, its not cheating".  You could also consider purchasing very very sexy lingerie for someone you consider much more sexy than your wife.  It may make you feel better too.\n\nAsk her if this is what marriage means to her?  And she if these are the standards she intends for your marriage together?\n\nJust a feeling, maybe she is looking for a way out of the marriage.  Ask her.\n\nYou deserve to have a partner that respects the boundries of your togetherness, marriage.\n\nPlease clean this mess up now.  I understand it's a real confrontation, but before you become older and it gets worse clean it up. \n\nShe told you it was wrong.  My question to you is, why did she betray you in the first place?  She was not behaving as if she is married to you.  Is that OK with you?  Is this someting you can live with?  Do you think this would be the last time this will ever happen?  I wish you a live full of love and happiness, with or without her.  PS Happy Easter-Happy Pesah, and everything else under the Son.  May your union, this or another be Blessed and may you receive the love you deserve in turn.

I hate to admit it. But Brazil is going to take home the cup again. \nWhen I look at there team I just laugh at how good they are.\n\nRonaldinho him self is just sick.

Why hasn't California produced more presidential candidates?

I'm confident that California will produce more.  The population of California has only really been growing since the 1950's.  It didn't become the most populous state until 1970, when it finally "beat out" New York.  So, it's time is still coming, I believe.

How important if you are applying to college is your sophomore year high school grades? read below?

That 2.8 will bring you down, unfortunately. However there is a personal statement where you can state that you moved and it was harder fitting in. You should continue to get better grades from now on. 3.5 might not do it, and it might depending on the schools. UC Berkeley, UC LA, UC San Diego may be reaches, however UC Irvine, Davis and Santa Barbara are good matches. You could probably fall back on Santa Cruz, Riverside, Merced. :) KEEP YOUR HOPES UP!


Must  A  Person Go to Heaven to Have a Truly Happy Future?

To be happy you will have to go to heaven for a while, until the unbelievers get done destroying the earth, and Jesus comes back to restore all things.  You will not find a lot of happiness here during the great tribulation..  Go to heaven for the marriage supper of  the Lamb, it will be nicer.


How do I teach my child to tie their shoe?

Patiently!\n\nGreat ideas so far. Kids love imitating but shoe tying can be difficult to pick up when Mom (or dad) does it from the front. When I started to sit behind my little girl to do her shoes and then guided her hands she soon picked it up (and has been doing it more or less successfully for sixteen years now!) :-)


Why do woman have babies from men that will eventually leave the country to avoid child support.?

Is Peter Jackson making a movie of 'The Hobbit'? I'm having Middle Earth withdrawals and need a fix...

Tell him that you only see him as a friend.  End of story.\n\nAbout him dating someone else, if you see him doing that and he likes you, tell him it's not your cup of tea.  If he wants a fling, he could search elsewhere... there's none of that bs about he'll break up with her soon or whatever.

What order do stars die in?(red dwarf, white dwarf....etc.)?

It depends on how massive the star is:\n\nFor stars of less than 8 times the mass of the sun:\nMain Sequence -> Red Giant -> (planetary nebula)-> White Dwarf\n\nFor stars with 8 to about 18 times the mass of the sun:\nMain Sequence -> Red Giant -> (supernova) -> Neutron Star\n\nFor stars with more than about 18 times the mass of the sun:\nMain Sequence -> Red Giant -> (supernova) -> Black Hole\n\nNote that for the massive stars I've simplified things into the "red giant" term, high mass star evolution is pretty complex, and many high mass stars can transition between red and blue supergiants several times during ther brief lives.


How do I get over it, and do I have the right to be mad?

Simply.. change your group of friends, or break up.. If you say you can't stand it anymore these are the only options.

are state colleges publicly owned? more specifically, the employee discpline records? (reasons for firing)?

Employee discipline records are never available no matter who you work for.  Personnel files are always confidential and generally can not be removed from the human resource department.  You may not like that answer now but you will when you start in the business world.


If things still like now, in the near future, we will not have oil, so the primary source of energy will be the sun, or water or helium, now if all burned hydrocarbons are not enough to kill all living things on the planet, there will be some culture learned, and humans have learn that the old way (think as owners and masters of our world) is not taking us anywhere, we may find a way to keep us balanced in our own world, so if we still using the earth as out own living home, we should be traveling in sail boats, walking and horse carriages, also the need to travel will be reduced by the virtual reality booths at your local 7-eleven that are going to be free stuff by that time.\n\nWeird ??? may be, but at this point can happen.


have you ever met an Iranian/how do you find them?

There are many in my country.  I am a clairvoyant reader and actually had a few come to me for a reading.. Much against their religion.  But we found many agreeing values.  And they understood their challenges.  I just feel a little intimidated by the women who bow down to their men, and let them have other wives.   Women have come so far to be looked at equally in society, and now we are bombarded with all these women in cloaks.  It makes me feel somewhat demised.

want to buy a rental property. Which bank offers best investment property loans w/ least down payment?

Our bank even offers 100% loans on Investment Properties.\n\nThey are a little more difficult to qualify for, but they are there.\n\nAlso, the interest rates start going up after the 80% mark, so if you are looking for a "cash flow" property, the 100% loans may not work well for you.  It depends on what area you are in and how much you are buying the house for.\n\nIf you are looking to flip the property in a short time, then who cares about the rate.  Just get in, get out and take your profit.\n\nThanks,\nGreg


I'm assuming your accessing it from another class? \n\nPrivate declaration stops this from occuring.

What does the term " Cayman Island " means?

apart from being an actual chain of 3 islands in the western Carribbean which I'm guessing you don't mean the islands associated with tax fruad and money laundering. As a tax haven it was possible to avoid paying tax on incomes or paying less if they were chanelled through banks in the Caymans. This lead to a lot of criminal activity, drug trafficking etc going on which the government partly turned a blind eye to. That was in the 60s-90s think its cleaned up a lot since though but don't really know. hope thats a help

When i shine my optical mouse on the pad of my finger, the other side is red. Why don't I see my finger bones?

I stand corrected, as usual.  The people below are correct in that the wavelength of the light is not correct for you to see your finger bones.  It takes a certain wavelength (e.g. X-rays), not the light that's coming from your mouse.  You probably also need the proper "background" to see it correctly.

I have good cred. but a very short (<6mos)credit history, can I get a private student loan without a co-signer

depends on your credit score and how many revolving credit accounts you have... my credit just shot through the roof thanks to the new house I just bought. I had no credit and got approved for a brand new house, so if you do have good credit then i'd assume you could get the loan


CS Lewis... Out of the Silent planet question... Was Ransom a zombie???

No, he was just boring as a person. But he probably drank quite a few zombies, as well as, pure unadulterated ethanol... how else, (sans spaceship) do you get into your own private world w/ talking walruses unless you indulge in large quanities of alcohol or recreational pharmaceuticals?


A drainage area is in essence a watershed.\n\nIt is where all the running surface water of an area drains into a common river system.\n\nIf you want something local, other than what you have listed, try Google searching the name of your state with the term 'watershed'. Many times you will find a nice set of maps & lists of the different river basins in your area.\n\nThe Amazon of South America is one of the largest river basins in the world. The Nile river basin is another large one. Both cover a large area & drain most of the worlds fresh running surface water into the oceans. The Mississippi river basin also covers most of the United States & drains into the Gulf of Mexico dumping lots of sediment as it does so.

So, i'm a christian and I need to know, is masturbation a sin?

no it is not. it is never forbidden in the scriptures. it is never even dealt with for that matter. Using the principle that 'whatever is not forbidden in permissible', would lead one to conclude it is not sin in and of itself.\n\nso what is it?\n\nIt can be selfish - if it keeps you from your spouse\nIt can be addictive - if guilt and fantasy get the better of you.\nIt can be a wonderful - way to relive tension and anxiety as a creature made to enjoy pleasure.\n\nthe way of wisdom is 'All good things in moderation'

What do you do when a man's penis size and thrust during sex causes you to lightly bleed vaginally?

Gentle, slow, and a lot more lube next time.\n\nAnd next time, a lot more foreplay and he should lick you for like 20-30 minutes before he does any lubing and penetrating.


wow. ^^^you are a moron. not you bunny...this cherry sk*nk...\n\nmaybe she goes on and on about you because you are a psycho stalker...\n\nand uhm...how would you know she's a skanky whore?...did she tell you that?...i doubt it. grow up.\n\nin response to your question: I believe some christians are like this because they don't know any better. they preach what has been preached to them. they don't understand it...or don't care...or maybe even think their lives are an exception to the rule and they can do as they please and then "repent" because they are already "saved"...\n\nthis just seems to be the common explanation in the christian girls that have tried to brainwash me anyhow.


May I get some good advice from women with men about buying her lingerie..help????

i am a 39 yr old lady & i'm here 2 tell u going n the dressing room w/ her is a great idea!!!!! she's right, dont tell her u like the first thing she tries on even if u do. let her try on several things & tell her how sexy she looks n each 1! since u r n love, u will probably really like everything but let her try them on anyway. when she's done pick out 1 u love & have her put it on again (just 2 b sure!) she will love u 4 it & you will both have a very,very,very good rest of the day. good luck!!!


My girlfriend says she loves me so much, but she needs to figure somethings out. please help!!!?

#1 Rule.  Women always want a challenge and things they can't have. It's just a fact of life..there brains work different than mens.     So you can either be  her new challenge or you can be that sappy wus that calls her 10 times a day that makes u not even remotely close to being a challenge.  If you really want her back...respect her decision, give her space.....and work on yourself..Create a life for yourself that will amaze her, and a life that will make her want to be part of.  Giving her space is tough to do, and seems like the exact opposite of what you feel like doing..that's why it's so tough.  But hanging on for dear life just gets you further away from her heart.   A women will fall for a guy that shows her utmost respect of her wish of needing space and time. But during that time...again work on yourself, find out  how you want to be treated by a girlfriend, and what kind of changes you need to make to make a women treat you that way.  Read some books on women and relationships....treat it like a test you need to study for.

What are the signs of renal failure in diabetics?

Diabetic Kidney Disease\n\n    Diabetes is the most common cause of kidney failure. However, it's also true that most people with diabetes don't go on to have end-stage kidney disease (ESRD). There are many things you can do to control your diabetes and minimize your risk of kidney failure including stopping smoking and keeping blood pressure under control. A federal study called the Diabetes Control and Complications Trial proved in 1993 that intensive management of diabetes can reduce the risk of kidney disease by 50 percent.\n    Intensive management (called tight control) means frequent testing of blood sugar, calculating insulin intake on the basis of diet and exercise, following a diet and exercise plan, and talking often with a health care team whose members are skilled at treating diabetes.\n\nWhat happens?\n    Early in diabetes, the blood-filtering units of the kidneys are damaged. This means important proteins are lost in the urine. A urine test that measures protein can show beginning diseases. Later in the disease, the kidneys can't remove waste products from the blood.\n\nWhat are the stages?\n    There are five stages of diabetic kidney disease with the last stage being kidney failure. On average it takes a person with diabetes over 20 years to progress to the end stage. Both types of diabetes, Type 1 and Type 2, can lead to kidney disease. Type 1 is more likely to lead to end-stage kidney failure.\n\n    About 40 percent of people with Type 1 diabetes develop severe kidney disease and end-stage kidney failure by the age of 50. Type 2 causes 80 percent of the end-stage kidney failure in African Americans and Native Americans. The key to preventing kidney disease in people with both types of diabetes is not smoking, getting regular blood pressure and urine protein tests, and preventing high blood sugar. \n\n    Often there are no symptoms of the disease until it progresses to the late stages. When symptoms do appear they include:\n\n\nFatigue \nInsomnia \nWeakness \nVomiting \nSwelling\n\nStage I - The flow of blood through the kidneys increases and the kidneys get bigger. People can stay in this stage indefinitely or advance to Stage II after many years. \n\nStage II - Small amounts of blood protein known as albumin leak into the urine. This is called microalbuminuria. \n\nStage III - The loss of albumin and other proteins speeds up. Some patients develop high blood pressure. The kidneys continue to lose the ability to filter waste. Many people are first diagnosed with kidney disease at this stage. \n\nStage IV - In this stage large amounts of urine are passed through the kidneys and high blood pressure almost always occurs. \n\nStage V - The ability of the kidneys to filter waste almost stops. Kidney dialysis or transplants are treatment options. \n\nWays to prevent diabetes kidney problems\nYou can prevent diabetes kidney problems through the following means: \n\nKeep your blood glucose levels under control. Talk to your doctor about your HbA1c test and what your goal should be. \nKeep your blood pressure under control (130/85 mmHg or lower). \nHave your kidneys checked at least once a year by having your urine tested for small amounts of protein. \nTalk to your doctor about being placed on an ACE inhibitor to protect your kidneys. \nHave any other kidney tests that your doctor recommends. \nSee your doctor right away if you think you have a bladder or kidney infection.\n\nRelated articles\n\n\nTreatment with ACE inhibitors can delay kidney damage \nSelf-monitored BP predicts progression of diabetic kidney damage better than clinic BP \nNew Blood Pressure Drug Reduces Kidney Disease \nAngiotensin-II Receptor Antagonist Slows Progress of Diabetic Kidney Disease \nWatch Out for Kidney Disease \nEating To Help Your Kidneys \nNew Thinking about Eating Protein \nADA Issues New Guidelines on Diabetic Nephropathy

If it's only 699.13, it should be fine.  It's under the limit, and most CD's will let you overburn by a couple of megs anyways.  To be honest though, the only cd-burning programs I know where you can split up a file are Nero and Roxio.

where do u go when the love of ur life has money....an his money means more but he meets u every so often?

his money means more to him than you?  You may love him more than anything but he obviouslyb doesn't feel the same way about you if he's putting his money first.  you should be with someone who wants to be with you as much as you want to be with him.  Get out before you really get hurt, you deserve so much more.


Is their any way to show my boyfriend I still love him  when  we cant ever stop fighting. Is it worth it?

First, you need to understand why you're fighting. Is it over another person, money, time spent together? What?\nAfter you figure that out, plan a romantic evening. We're talking candles, music, pretty lacey things if you're at that stage, that kinda thing. And then apologize. Tell him how much you love him and that you're sorry that things have been so hard and that you wanna start over. And then do. If he feels the same way, he'll accept your apology and he might even apologize himself. \nGood luck sweetie


Can a hospital urine test show a positive pregnancy result earlier than a blood test?

No, a blood test shows a trace amount of the hormone early on and a urine test takes more time for the hormone to build up.

Why do schools have this whole GPA and this points business????

The grading business has been going on for a long time. The only way to tell who is good and who needs help. \n\n>You can be an average student who isn't all that smart and just get extra credit to get a really high average\n\nTrue, but to do it, you have to make an effort, work at it and that in itself proves you are better than those who don't.\n\nThe object is to get you to learn so you will be ready for what the world throws at you when you get older. It also gives incentive to do better. There is competition in life, so there is competition in schools, in the form of grading.


What is your opinion of Capital Punishment (death penalty)?

I believe each human should be thoroughly evaluated and determined as to what kind of reform methods are possible.\n\nTake into consideration from what kind of environment they were raised in.\n\nYou never really know why someone has killed someone else. It could have been out of their own fear of retaliation, or mental distress.  "Threat elimination" is a thing that drives alot of people to murder.  Also, the person may have been under the influence of hard drugs or alcohol, and did something they wouldn't have done, normally (sober).\n\nFrom my own point-of-view, I believe most male aggression is caused from sexuality (hormones), so I'd vote for castration of murderers, rapists, child molesters, etc., instead of death penalty.  BTK is a perfect example of a guy who should have been castrated straightaway.\n\nIf we did "Eye for an eye and tooth for a tooth", then the whole world would be blind and toothless...

Your marriage license or certificate should show your married name, and that's the legal "proof" you'll need to get a new Social Security card. You'll need a new driver's license anyway, so just put the new name on the form; same thing with the new bank account. Congratulations!


I need help on my Book review on "Jarhead" can anyone sum the book up for me?

Jarhead is a Gulf War memoir by author Anthony Swofford.\n\nThis book recounts Swofford's enlistment and service in the U.S. Marine Corps during the First Gulf War, in which he served as a scout/sniper. After leaving military service, the author went on to college and earned a Masters Degree in Writing at the University of Iowa.\n\nHaving seen very little actual combat during the war (like most of the half million troops stationed there), Swofford's narrative tends to focus on the emotional and psychological struggles of the young troops, especially sexual frustration and violence among themselves. Swofford also recounts the profound disappointment of having trained so long and so hard, only to never have the chance to engage the enemy, due to the brevity of the war. The book thus runs counter to most autobiographical military chronicles, sidestepping the stereotypes of slaughtering civilians or a soldier's best friend dying in his arms. Critical reaction was generally positive; Marines who actually served in the Gulf War are sharply divided on the book's merits and accuracy.\n\nIt has been recently adapted into a screenplay by William Broyles Jr., and subsequently directed by Sam Mendes. The 2005 film, Jarhead, stars Jake Gyllenhaal, Jamie Foxx and Peter Sarsgaard. Reviews were generally positive.\n-----------------------------------------------------------\nJarhead: A Marine's Chronicle of the Gulf War and Other Battles \nby Anthony Swofford \n\nA Review by Laura Miller \n\nThe dirty secret about combat memoirs isn't that war is senseless or that heroes are often terrified or that the battlefield can turn even good men into dehumanized monsters or that everyone is bored except for the moments when they're scared shitless or even that there is a beast inside every last one of us. The secret is that these stories are all more or less the same, once you decide which of two categories they belong to: tales of valor and tales of squalor. \n\nThe tales of valor have enjoyed a resurgence of late, particularly those about World War II, but despite Band of Brothers and other enterprises of the late Stephen Ambrose, the second, bleaker type of war story is still ascendant. Its touchstones are Joseph Heller's Catch-22 (a novel, but still) and Tim O'Brien's The Things They Carried, books that strive to explain that, stupid as it is to fight wars, it is even stupider to glorify the fighting of them. And, more recently, war memoirs verge on disparaging themselves, so dark and roiling is the contempt to be found in them. Anthony Swofford's Jarhead is one of those books; you imagine him half-wishing, as he gets to the end of the book, that he could reach back and start erasing it from the beginning. \n\nSwofford was a lance corporal in a United States Marine Corps scout/sniper platoon who saw combat in Saudi Arabia and Kuwait during the Gulf War. Specifically, he was fired upon by both the enemy and his own side, but didn't actually kill anyone himself. His war was short, and it only takes up the last third or so of this slender book. Of necessity, Swofford devotes more pages to his childhood and youth, his training in the U.S. and overseas, and the several months he spent stationed with his platoon in the Arabian desert waiting for the war to begin. \n\nInitially, Jarhead delivers some jolts. Marine barracks are not known for their decorum, but Swofford describes his mates and himself as brutal, petulant, thoughtless, wretched, sadistic, wrathful and sometimes borderline sociopathic. He remembers being beaten mercilessly by a sergeant, holding a gun to the head of a fellow Marine until the other man wept uncontrollably, fantasizing for hours about the "pink mist" resulting from a properly-aimed shot to an enemy's head, contemplating suicide, auctioning off seminude photos of his unfaithful girlfriend, looting the corpses of Iraqi soldiers for trophies and consuming impressive am

In baseball you hit in a 'V', but in cricket you can hit the ball 360 degrees; the field is larger in cricket and there are 11 players who all have to bat, but a few bowl; the ball is harder and more subject to deviation in flight; the ball must hit the ground before it gets to the batsman in cricket, thereby giving the bowler more lines of flight/deviation/movement/trickery; cricket games can be played over 5 days!; several countries play cricket, but baseball is North American plus a few others; baseball is a simpler game appealing to simpler folk!

Why dont they raise the price of bullets up so they cant be afforded by criminals...?

What good is that going to do.  The criminals will just steal them.  \n\nIt's like gun regulation.  It makes it harder for law abiding citizens to get guns, but the criminals have no problem at all.  They just acquire the guns illegally.\n\nThis is the problem with the entire anti-gun lobby.  I person who is willing to use a gun in a crime is more then willing to acquire a gun in some illicit manner.  Meanwhile, i law abiding citizen who might need a gun for defense has to jump through hoops.\n\nAnd no I am not an NRA member and I don't own a gun.\n\n"Guns don't kill people, criminals with guns kill people."

Has anyone read Dianetics? Is it worth my time to read it?Can anyone give me a summary of its 'teachings'?

When I wanted to make some changes in my life I searched out this Dianetics program too. It is not something I recommend. Firstly it is costly, then they talked about "locking me" in a room with some other people for several days so I could "reprogram" my mind. Scarey!!! Don't do it! The best program out there to help people make the changes the Dianetics people promise...is to just study the Bible itself. They claim they use the scriptures, but don't you notice they are selling their information? Jesus said: "You received free, give free". A person who wants to draw close to God and come into a better relationship with him is given that opportunity for FREE. It is not proper for TV evangelists, priests, rabbi's, or any religious leader to ask for money, charge money for services, tell you to send in money for them to say prayers for you or your family...that is all a scam. If you want to know how to recieve the best help available to you for free, I am happy to assist you. Email me and ask any questions you have about life, why we are here and where we are headed, how to be happy, is this life all there is, how to find the true God, who Jesus is and what he has done for mankind's future, what happens at death, etc. There is not a topic around that the Bible does not address directly or in principle. You should be able to find what you are looking for from the Scriptures, not a book written for profit.


Why do people on ebay always bid in the last 5 seconds and win what i've been bidding on for 4 days?

People bid last minute because bidding the entire way through the auction just keeps jacking the bid up higher and higher.  Also, it is allowed by ebay...and sellers love it.  It isn't the last bid that wins, it is the highest bid.  If you don't want to be outbid, place a high proxy...but never more than you are willing to spend.  Then, if you get outbid at the end, at least you know that you wouldn't have wanted to pay that much for it.


Does anyone have any tips on birdwatching?

Hey kiddo! I love to watch birds too! I put up a couple of hanging feeders from my tree. The squirrel proof one. It has springs on it so when a squirrel jumping on it, then feeders trays close. I've got squirrel food for them anyway, they can munch on their peanuts and sunflower seed chips.\nHave a great set of Binoculars. I've got a small set and keep them right on the window sill ready to use at a flying "What's was that?" moment. It's very relaxing to bird watch and a fun thing to do. Wish more kids did it, they probably be in a lot less trouble!\nIf your going to put up a feeder, figure out what birds are in your area, and buy the right feed that attracts them.\nSince your favorite is a Indigo Bunting and if there in your area my book says they like peanuts, millet and seeds. Fruits too. So throw some of that around and see what happens!\nHappy Bird Watching LOL\nSmileyCat : )\nThanks for the lesson on your favorite bird.\nI'll be talking to yha!

Our sun is about 93 million miles away. To put that into perspective if you hopped into a magic race car, like the ones that race in NASCAR, but you never needed gas and it drove itself and you could go 200 miles an hour non-stop for the whole trip, it would take a little over 50 years to get to the sun. Fortunately spacecraft can go much faster than race cars. The sun is very close to us compared to the other stars. They are so far away it takes light, which travels very fast(186 thousand miles per second), years (or hundreds of years) to reach us from them.


Most headaches happen outside your skull, in the nerves, blood vessels, and muscles that cover your head and neck. Sometimes the muscles or blood vessels swell, which means they get larger. \n\nThey also can tighten or go through other changes that stimulate or put pressure on the surrounding nerves. The nerves send a rush of pain messages to your brain, and you end up with a headache.\n\nDifferent Kinds of Headaches\nThe most common type of headache is a tension, or muscle-contraction, headache. This happens when stressed-out head or neck muscles keep squeezing too hard. When you get this kind of headache, the pain is usually dull and constant. It might feel as though something is pressing or squeezing on the front, back, or both sides of your head.\n\nPain that's especially sharp and throbbing can be a sign of a different kind of headache called a migraine. Migraine headaches aren't as common as tension headaches, especially in kids, but they can still happen. Sometimes, just before a migraine happens, the person sees wavy lines or bright spots of light. This is called an aura. Also, people who get migraines often feel sick to their stomachs and sometimes throw up. \n\nWhat Causes Tension and Migraine Headaches?\nSometimes a headache is just a part of another illness, such as a cold or flu or strep throat. When you get better, the headache gets better, too. If you're not sick, other triggers may cause a headache. For example, staying up too late, skipping a meal, or playing in the hot sun too long can set off a headache. \n\nExcitement about a special event or worry about something (a school exam, for instance) can also cause headaches. Some people get headaches from riding in a car or bus or from straining their eyes by spending too much time watching TV or using a computer. \n\nStrong odors, such as perfume, smoke, fumes, or the smell of a new car or carpet, can start a headache. \n\nSome foods can cause headaches in some kids, such as bacon, bologna, and hot dogs. The caffeine in sodas, chocolate, coffee, and tea may cause headaches, too. Kids don't need caffeine, so it's a good idea to limit it in your diet. \n\nSometimes no one knows why a kid gets headaches, but if you get them, chances are someone in your family gets them, too. The tendency to get headaches is often inherited. In other words, it runs in the family.

What is the "Dont ask. Dont tell." policy with the Army?

In theory, the military can't ask someone if they're gay. They can, however, if someone admits to being gay, kick them out. (Doesn't necessarily happen if the person has to go to Iraq, but that's another matter.)\n\nSupposedly, through this theory, the army has no trouble with people who are gay, just people who commit sexual acts with someone of the same sex. (ie, they can't punish status, just action). So, they can't ask if you're gay. However, if they find that you're involved with someone of the same sex -- even without proof of what exactly you're doing -- they can kick you out. So, in effect, they punish the status of being gay rather than just the action.\n\nIt's a pretty screwed up policy -- probably the worst legacy of Clinton; certainly in terms of gay rights.

Do we really need a gods and goddesses to survive, or do they really need us simply to exist?

No, we do not need a God or Goddess, but our minds have evolved to the point where we can't stop asking why, and when we have no logical answer we seek an ilogical answer just to stop the whirling maelstrom of thoughts raging in our minds.  However, we are steadily beginning to find the answers to the questions that previously had no answers but that of which revolved around a God or Goddess doing something that we can not do.  However, religion is fighting back where it no longer is needed, and those in power don't like the thought of being swept under the rug very much.  When science answers all of the questions people have, they may stop turning to the churchs for answers, and so the churchs will lose both power over the people as well as funding, and those in charge do not like this idea.

B - because of the advances in mainland China, it forced the US to fight a two front war.  The Japanese caused the americans, and Russians to have to balance their military efforts.

Standing on the earth which is an sphere, why people don't perceive standing head down,horizontally,only up

Because the Earth is so large, our only reference frames are on Earth, and to us our reference frame is flat.  If we were large enough so that our size could be comparable to Earth, then we would see planets and stars sideways or upside down, if they even had an orientation.\n\nOur sense of "down" is due to gravity, and on every place on Earth "down" is really toward the center of the Earth.  Since our natural position is to be standing on our feet, our weight pulls "down" toward our feet and we perceive to be standing "up."

Is it ok to date my ex-girlfriend's daughter? It's like Autumn in New York movie in my live?

First of all your life is not a movie... you may not want to base your relationships on what some writer made up... by the way I liked the movie, though not my favorite.\n\nSecondly, she is underage and you are old enough to be her dad.  Not that age is the primary issue in a relationship, but statutory rape may not look good on your resume.\n\nThirdly, are you sure it's "love?"  Many people confuse physical attraction and lust with love.  If it is true love, why are both of you hiding it from her mother?  Also a girl brought up by a single mom is probably looking for a father figure more than an boyfriend who is 20 years the elder.\n\nI suggest that you strongly consider pulling back a little and take a look at this situation from a different perspective.  You may be in too deep to really see what's going on.\n\nJust my opinion

What is Cramer's V and when should it be used?\n\nCramer's V is a correlation coefficient that indicates the relationship among two categorical variables. It is similar to Pearson's correlation coefficient for two quantitative variables. Like Pearson's coefficient, Cramer's V ranges from -1 to 1, with 0 indicating no relationship and -1 or 1 indicating a perfect relationship. Also like Pearson's coefficient, the square of Cramer's V indicates the proportion of the total possible association (i.e., the maximum possible value of the chi-square statistic) that is present in the data.\n\nDespite these similarities, Cramer's V is more difficult to interpret that Pearson's correlation coefficient for several reasons. First, the maximum possible association (chi-square) is related to the sample size and the number of levels of each categorical variable. Thus, just changing the definitions of the levels of a categorical variable can change Cramer's V. Also, small values of Cramer's V often correspond to quite large proportional differences between groups, so the proximity of V to 0 can be misleading. These problems suggest that it is more reasonable to compare proportions than it is to focus solely on Cramer's V. If V is used as a measure of a relationship, it should be a secondary index that is interpreted in conjunction with a discussion of proportional differences.\n\nWhat is the purpose of the chi-square test?\n\nThe chi-square test is an inferential test of a null hypothesis about any statistic that has a chi-square distribution when the null hypothesis is true. The most common use of the test is as a test of an omnibus hypothesis about two categorical variables (i.e., H0: V = 0) or an omnibus hypothesis that the proportion of responses in each response category is the same for K different groups. Although these hypotheses are used with two different sampling models (the model of independence and the model of homogeneity, respectively), the manner in which the test is conducted is identical for tests of both hypotheses. These are omnibus hypotheses, therefore the test should be employed in exploratory research studies when the intent is to search for a possible association or group differences.\n\nWhen is it useful to construct a confidence interval for a difference in proportions?\n\nConfidence intervals for differences in proportions provide specific information about group differences. Specific information is useful when (a) an omnibus test in an exploratory analysis suggests that there are differences among two or more of the groups in at least one response category or (b) specific hypotheses are of interest because of theoretical predictions. In the first instance post hoc confidence intervals can be constructed, and in the latter case, a priori intervals will most likely be more powerful (i.e., narrower). The exception to this is when there are many a priori intervals so that the post hoc intervals would actually be narrower.\n\nI think i have helped u!!


why is it now that the president wants the constitution reviewed?dont u think its for selfish interist?

When you say "the president wants the constitution reviewed" you do not explain what you mean by that.  Is there a specific news story behind this?\n\nWithout those details, I'll say this:\nIf it's just "reviewing" the Constitution to be sure of what it says about a specific issue that should not be a problem.  It's perfectly fine -- in fact I would WANT the President, Congress & the courts-- to be checking the Constitution when they are seeking to do any of the following:\n\n1) to make sure that something they want to do is not against the Constitution, or to show others how what they have done or are going to do IS supported by the Constitution\n\n2) if they think what some other branch of government has done or is thinking of doing goes against the Constitution, so they can fight for that action to be changed\n\n3) if there is a problem that it seems cannot be solved just by passing laws or by executive orders, something that needs a change in the Constitution.  Reviewing the Constitution an then deciding what sort of Constitutional AMENDMENT they want to propose for Congress and the state legislatures to act on\n\nPlease note that the way our government is set up there have always been, and will always be, struggles between the different branches of government over which powers each of them has according to the Constitution. EVERY President has fought for powers they believe they need and that the Constitution gives to them, to carry out their job.  And because Congress ALSO likes to maximize its power, there will always be people in Congress who say that the President does NOT have the powers he is claiming.   The back-and-forth between the branches to figure this all out is a GOOD thing, because it keeps one branch grom taking all the power for itself.  \n\nIn any case, except by the amendment process-- that is, the process the Constitution itself provides for!-- there is no legitimate way for ANY branch of government to change the Constitution.  But I have not heard of any case where the President is suggesting doing this.\n\nAs for the "selfiah interest" part -- again, you have not told us exactly what issue this is all about.  But if it's simply part of the back-and-forth between the branches that I mentioned above, that has gone on for more than 200 years now, I don't see how that is "selfish interest".\n\n(I'm also amazed at those who answered by attacking the President without even knowing WHAT issue you have in mind, without hearing a single fact of the case!!)

Why Are people  bashing on me for not believe in the creation?

I personally agree with much of what you are saying. The bible was written by many different men, and is missing parts that were in it many y\centuries ago. We have the English version (thanks to Henry VIII0, and that is a translated version from thee original Hebrew, Arab and Greek. It is therefore, in my opinion, ridiculous to take it literally. I also believe in God but not in the bible, per say. I believe in the golden rule and being a good person but do not allow myself to be bullied into certain behavior and beliefs by the church out of fear.\nBelieve whatever you want, in the end you have to live with yourself, and should therefore be true to yourself. Who cares what anyone else thinks? Many of the people who would "bash you" for not believing in creationism are just narrow minded people who believe what they were brought up to believe and never questioned any of it.

How does a Perpetual Motion Machine work?

i would like to know why do women go back to guy who have abused them ." mentaly, phiscly, "?

It is called co-dependency.  They have to break the cycle.  In order for this to happen, they sometimes need professional help.  \n\nYou might have to get "tough" with your friend.  I know someone that had a much younger sister.  The older daughter lived on her own.  The Mom of the girls had an abusive boyfriend.  The older daughter helped the mother get away from the boyfriend.  The Mom called the boyfriend and had him pick her up.  As a result, the older daughter went and filed for custody of her sister.  The boyfriend ended up killing the mother.  \n\nI hope this doesn't happen to your friend.  She has to want to leave him and move on.  See if you can get her into counseling.  You might contact your local Women's shelter and explain what is going on with your friend.  They should be able to give you some resources.  Good luck!

What is the level of progress so far achieved by researchers in finding cure to HIV/AIDS?

Naturopathic doctors have been treating HIV with natural compounds for years the only reason you don't hear more about them is that they are suppressed by the FDA who are in cahoots with the big drug companies only because they can't \npatent a natural substance. Look at colloidal silver, olive leaf concentrate and grapefruit seed extract online and decide for yourself.

how fast does food poisoning take effect?

Depends on what you mean by "food poisoning".   Everyone here assumes that you are talking about staph contamination of food, but there are several common bacteria that can contaminate food, and each has a different time line and course of symptoms, from almost immediately until days later.  \n\nNow if you are talking about someone adding poison to food, that again depends on which poison, from immediate to days, weeks or years later.

Can you give me some difficult, yet impressive words that would puzzle a 10-year-old's friends?

I really get a kick out of it when they just go "huh" \n\nhave fun humiliating people.


after going on the pill can i get back to my old self?

JenniferLynn is wrong. The ingredients in the pill changes your hormone levels and most likely thats why you gained some weight.Your hormone levels will return back to the way they where before you starting taking the pill, but it just takes a little time for it to get out of your system.So YES, you can get back to your old self(exercise or diet to lose the weight) and NO, your body wont store fat easier.


How are taxes withheld on someone with No social security card?

If someone doesn't have a Social Security number (SSN), they can apply for a Individial tax identification number (ITIN) through the IRS.  Only people who are not able to get a SSN would be eligible for the ITIN (i.e. undocumented workers, illegals).  Before my husband got his INS paperwork straightened out (he was illegal), he had an ITIN.  It has the same amount of numbers as a social, but it normally begins with a 9.  This number doesn't mean that you are legally allowed to work, but it allows you to file taxes....I hope this is what you needed.


Asset to our economy or a strain on our economy?

They are a strain on our government.  They need to go home.  If they are not satified here go home.  PLEASE.\nI am glad they are staying home on Monday,  maybe the american people can get something done without them being in the way at the grocery store and doctors offices, gas stations.  If they are here illigally our governement needs to step up and start guarding our borders.  If they can't speak our language, before they are allowed here one of the requirements  should be they speak our language, we should not have to spend any money commidating them.  They get all the hand out.  \nWe need to stop it now.

You may have one, check the CDs that came in with the computer, it has the IR software to do that.\n\nXLMan


You have to consider the time from egg to death.\n\n\nSo, that's how I arrived at the answer--from animals in captivity. The longest-lived captive animal is the Giant Tortoise (177 years) and the shortest, the gastrotich (3 days).\n\n(Answered by April Holladay, science journalist, April 4, 2001)\n\nFurther Surfing:\n\nLife span, Encyclopedia Britannica\n\nFigure Caption: [© Scott Camazine, used with permission, Pennsylvania State University] A fruit fly lives about 37 days.\n\nQ: Which mammal has longest and which the shortest life span?\n\nA: If we just look at mammals, then primates are the longest lived group and man is the longest lived of the primates: 122 years (Jeanne Louise Calment, 1875 - 1997). Tiny shrews live the shortest: maybe 1 to 1.5 years. Interesting enough, among primates the bigger your brain, the longer you live. The faster you live, though, the shorter you live. Squirrel-like rodents live two or three times longer than mouse-like rodents because their rate of metabolism is slower.\n\n(Answered by April Holladay, science journalist, April 4, 2001)

Who is that 3point sharp shooter of the Gators,Lee Humphrey?damn where did he come from!!?

He came from Maryville, Tennessee! He's a junior, and this is the first year that he's started almost every game. He's mostly a shooter, but he can also play point guard. In the last part of the season, he stayed behind the arc, but I've seen him take it to the basket plenty of times. He does have crappy foul shooting, but maybe that's because he hardly ever gets fouled.\n\nA few months ago, he injured his shoulder in a bicycle accident. He recovered quickly, but he was more hesitant with his shooting. He'd pass off to someone else. Then Donovan told him that if he didn't take a shot whenever he was open, he'd get benched. Ever since then, Humphrey has been shooting like crazy.


In basketball which goes first, stretching or warmup?

And now the real answer. In order to properly stretch in any sport you need to warm up...get your blood pumping, get your muscles filled with blood so they are ready to stretch. Warming up is crucial so you don't pull muscles. Not warming up means that you are just pulling on ligaments and tendons more than the muscle itself. After a light jog or run you can start your stretching session. Remember to at least stretch for 20seconds. Muscles start to relax and stretch after 10 seconds of stretching. Meaning the effects of stretching is only beneficial after the first 10 seconds.


To the faithful and freethinkers alike, what is your Main worry?

Not to revert to my old mental addictions I had years ago. I worked too darn hard to get back into control.

I try not to think about it, though on a basis.

whats the first thing that you would like to do after you having sex with some one?

well...for a woman, let them know how fantastic being so close to them was, Let them know you wouldn't have wanted to have it with anyone else- they made it as special and plesurable as possible.  Then suprise them in the morning with a breakfast in bed, or have them wake up to a massage.  Showering together is also cool, and hot chocolate is good for those particularly cold mornings.


why are the swedish people so cold and on the otherhand so nice?

They are just reserved, it's not in their culture to go up to strangers, slap them on the back and yell "howdy!" ;) that would probably give them heart failure (jk)\n\nBut try not to generalize - not all Swedes are reserved, neither are all French snobs or Americans rich and rude (which is what many in Sweden think btw)

Can anyone disprove the existance of God/Jesus?

it is impossible to prove a negative.  One cannot prove the non-existance of god just as they could not prove the non-existance of WMD's in Iraq.  The lack of evidence against something in both cases is not evidence of it's existance.

What is so wrong about following the principle of Lucifer?

I guess there is nothing wrong with it.  Just remember that all acts have consequences.  There is nothing wrong with playing in the street, as long as you realize that there is a good chance that you will get hit by a car, and you are OK with that.\nIf you believe that there is a Heaven and Hell, a God and a Satan, then you should believe in some sort of afterlife.  So where do you want to spend you eternity of afterlife.\nAs for you question about the bible..the same could be said of any teaching materials you've read or heard about Lucifer's plans and desires.  Who told you that Lucifer just wants you to create a better life for yourself?  Who told you that followers of Lucifer don't condone violence?  This is probably written somewhere...and it was probably written by a man (or woman).


Do STARS have points? Or are the just a big ball like other planets?

Greetings,\n\nYou will sometimes see pictures of stars with points, reference to the link below.  The gentleman who took the picture placed string in a cross-hair pattern over the objective (the opposite end from the eyepiece) to make the points of the stars.  When he was asked why he does this Mr. Russel stated that he just like the way it looked.\n\nThe points on stars in most photographs are generally derived from either slight overexposure or the telescope being out of collimation slightly.\n\n-matt

when did sign language first start and how did it change over the years?

It depends which sign language you mean!\n\n"Sign language" in general has probably been around for as long as there have been enough deaf people around to form some sort of a deaf community.  In terms of historical evidence, there are records of sign language use back to the middle ages in Britain and France (and presumably elsewhere).

A rainbow is created when white light from the sun enters droplets of water in the sky and is refracted. The light is refracted when entering spherical droplets, then it is reflected inside them and refracted again upon leaving. This bends the light, as you would see in a lens.  The red end of the spectrum bends less than the blue, which is why they separate when they come out of the drop.\nWikipedia has a page about rainbows, with some diagrams which may help you understand.\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rainbow


Yeah, but you still need a dish above ground somewhere.


work to hard play to little, what to do?

Look for a new job. If you don't like your lifestyle, change it. You only have one life to live. Don't you think you should be living it in the way that you want to? \n\nToo often we are led through life instead of making our own way. It can be frightening to make changes, but sometimes change is necessary to achieve the things we truly want from life.\n\nThe exception would be if you truly love what you are doing and it doesn't feel like work to you. The way to know if you are doing what you should be doing in your work is if you would do it even if you weren't being paid for it. If not, you are probably not in the right job. Look around (but don't leave your current job until you find something else.)


The iPod is not an acronym.\n\nThe web definition of iPod is as follows:\n\niPod is a combination digital audio player and portable hard drive from Apple Computer. About the size of a deck of playing cards, iPod can be purchased with either a 10GB, 15GB, or 30GB hard drive and can be connected to a computer through either a FireWire (Mac or Windows) or USB (Windows only) port. iPod has a reputation for being user-friendly. Users navigate iPOD with what Apple calls a "touch wheel," a centrally-placed circular disk designed for one-hand operation. Popular iPod features include a calendar, address book, to-do list, alarm clock with sleep timer, games, and text reader. The 15GB and 30GB models come with a docking station that can also be hooked up to a stereo system or powered speakers. \n\nThe definition of a podcast is as follows:\n\nPodcasting is the method of distributing multimedia files, such as audio programs or music videos, over the Internet for playback on mobile devices and personal computers. The distribution format of a podcast uses either the RSS or Atom syndication formats.\n\nThe term podcast, like "radio", can mean both the content and the method of delivery. The host or author of a podcast is often referred to as a "podcaster".\n\nPodcasters' web sites may also offer direct download or streaming of their files, however a podcast is distinguished by its ability to be downloaded automatically using software capable of reading RSS or Atom feeds.\n\nUsually the podcast features one type of "show", with new episodes either sporadically or at planned intervals, such as daily or weekly. In addition to this, there are podcast networks that feature multiple shows on the same feed.\n\nPodcasting's essence is about creating content (audio or video) for an audience that wants to listen or watch when they want, where they want, and how they want.


what does ' fear is in the eye of beholder ' mean?

This sounds like a "spin-off" of "beauty is in the eye of the beholder".  "Eye of the beholder" are the key words.  It simply means that each individual perceives reality based on a unique set of experiences or internal and external influences.  Any two individuals may "see" the same thing, but each will interpret or internalize what they see through their own unique process.  Maybe that is why people don't always "see eye-to-eye".


It trie to do so. But it is not close enough. The hair style may be the same but not the face.


How do you think that all this ugliness will leave relations between white and hispanic ppl?

I feel really down with all this mess. I'm mexican and my bf is from MA and I'm staying with him in the states but I work in MExico because I have a really good job here and there's no way I'm going to go to the states to work at mcdonalds. but it really hurts when i see in the news that white people is burning mexican restaurants just because they want all the mexicans to go back to mexico. I'm afraid one of these days I'm going to see a stupid racist in the street and that he/she is going to hurt me. We are human beings for god's sake!


Did you like college better than High School?

Absolutely!!!\n\nI am an adult student (30 years old).  I enjoy my classes much more at this age than I think I would have had I gone when I was younger.  Things make more sense when you have had life experience.  I'm currently taking an economics class and I'm loving it.  It's actually explaining things I've heard about on the news.  I'm actually starting to understand how the world of commerce works.\n\nHigh school for me was bogged down by parental expectations and peer pressure.  I absolutely hated high school but love the college experience.  This is about me and what I can accomplish, it's not for anyone else but me!  \n\nIf you do decide to start going to school begin slowly.  The first class should be something that really interests you.  Even if you can't decide what degree you might pursue take something that you've always wanted to learn about.  If for no other reason than it gives you more knowledge. Knowledge is power :)\n\nI highly recommend the experience, not to mention the degree will be helpful!  I'm not saying it's easy, but it is well worth it!\n\np.s. If you are a working mom, it's still doable, it just takes a little longer and a lot of patience.

can anybody see the energy surrounded by us? can we transfer our energy to somebody else?

Well, first, you have to be specific about what energy.\n\nIf you are standing in a room where your body tempature is greater than the surrounding air, then you are radiating heat, which the naked eye cannot see. However, you can transfer this energy: for example, in the cold, a herd of animals will draw in close and rub against each other to share body heat and reduce exposure to the elements.\n\nThe human body does not emit light, however it does reflect it (otherwise you couldn't see someone). Your eye, obviously, can see light reflected from objects. You cannot transfer light to someone else, in the sense you're probably thinking of.


which one is your favorite, and why?  the duodenum, ileum, or jejenum?

Well, they're all fun to say.  But duodenum was the body part I learned first, so I think I'll always be partial to it.  Tough luck ileum and jejunum!

Why is Cryrus the great not mentioned as often as Alexander the Great as being a great general?

Biased historians, Ben.\nMost historians in ancient times were Greek and, in more modern times, European. So there has been a tendency to exaggerate on the achievements of some and downplay some others. No disrespect to any historians, past or present, of course. Herodotus, for example, has done a great job.\nBut I would agree with you in wondering why Alexander (who burns down palaces, libraries and civilizations in a drunken frenzy) is so glorified in history, whereas the likes of Darius and Cyrus the Great, with all their contributions to human civilization, are not.\nIf you are interested, I'd suggest you have a look at www.cais-soas.com and also (if you have about 40 minutes!!) to watch  http://www.iraninfo.dk/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=49&Itemid=2\n \nPS. a very recent example of biased history, by the way, was the rubbish "Alexander" movie ... let me know if you'd be interested in reading an article on that movie.

How many are WESTLIFE  fans here?? why do people like their music??

One of the reasons I like Westlife is because their music is the same. If I like an artists album then I would want similar stuff from them next time. \nI like the fact that for the most part they seem to behave themselves (nobody's perfect). \nTheir concert at Wembley year was brilliant!
