Slow and steady DOES win this race!!!  I lost 10-15kg about 6yrs ago and went from a 16 to a 8/10 (Aussie sizes)  I'm now a 12 and am still very happy!\n\nYou sound like you are more than ready to begin this change - you certainly have the desire to do it!  Starting is by far the hardest part of the weight loss process.  Once you get healthy habits going, it's surprisingly easy to maintain them.  You need to find a way to give yourself that inital push or get someone to help you do it.\n\nI suggest you set a date to start your new healthy lifestyle - say to yourself "I am going to change my life and I am going to begin today.  I will not look back because this is something I am doing to better myself."  \n\n\nConsider consulting a nutritionist - they'll be able to help you understand why you binge eat and create healthy eating habits as well as eating plans.  I suggest you also consult your regular GP and find out the state of your health - blood pressure etc.  You don't want to push yourself too far too fast because that will most likely make you lose your motivation.\n\nYou have to accept that you are going to have to be selfish to a degree, because you will not be able to achieve your goal unless you take time out for yourself.  Ask your family and friends to support you by encouraging you and being conscious of their own habits when they're around you.  The more supportive, and healthy influences you surround yourself with, the more chance you have of succeeding.\n\nIf you're not used to exercising, you'd be best to start with gentle exercises, because the going from 0 to 100 will make you hurt and the more you hurt, the less you want to exercise and as a result, you lose your motivation.\n\nDon't expect things to happen overnight, and don't bother with fad diets that promise a quick fix - your body registers dieting as "starvation" and hangs onto your body fat.  \n\nKeep things interesting for yourself.  If you find yourself growing bored with your chosen exercise regime, try taking it up a notch, or else try something new.  If you join a gym, try to find one that gives free consultations with trainers every so often.  If not, make sure you join one that has plenty of staff around who can help you use the machinery and advise you on how things work, and what weights and speeds you should be using etc.  If you're nervous about embarrassing yourself, don't be!  Look around at different gyms, there are a heap of ones that aren't filled with people pumping iron and are quieter and less imposing for beginners.  If your finances can run to it, try to organise a session with one of the gym's personal trainers once a month or so -  that way you can get a proper, personalised evaluation and find out if you should be changing your exercise routine.\n\nIf you can't run to a gym membership, the try walking - set yourself a goal to reach, I used to go to video store at the top of the main road.  It only took me ten minutes to walk there, but I slowly increased that to include the streets surrounding it.\n\nWhen you go out, try to get a particular friend to keep an eye on you and help keep you from straying.  However, don't forget to treat yourself every so often.  I find that if I deny myself a treat for too long, I end up binging, which destroys all the good work I've done!  \n\nAlso, try not to eat before you go to sleep - I believe 2hrs is the minimum recommended gap.  And don't forget the mental component to losing weight - the mind plays a big part. Don't eat in front of the TV or computer - it distracts your mind from the process of eating.  Eat slowly - it helps your body feel fuller - 15-20min is the recommended minimum.  And try to prepare your own meals, your sense of smell plays a big part in your enjoyment of food - it's a preliminary stage to eating, so it prepares your mind and unconsciously begins to help you feel mentally fu

why do they call soccer football in england and not in the U.S?

in Europe/south America/Africa and a part of Asia its called football.....in the USA its called soccer cuz they have another sport thats called football....of course the americans have no logic calling the american football football cuz it looks like a kind of rugby and u dont play it just with the foot....americans r idiots...


OK, I'm a Progressive, not a publican, but here's my 2 cents:  \nWith the circus that is Iraq, and Afghanistan (remember Afghanistan?) the amount of resources that the US has to spare for the project is a lot less.\n\nAlso international good will is getting thin.\n\nPakistani government doesn't have a lot of control over the area that Osama is said to be in, but we owe them something for helping us, or at least not standing in our way in Afghanistan.  If we just went into that area, the citizens would probably overturn the Pakistani government and put one in that's more sympathetic to Osama.\n\nOr maybe it's that Pakistan doesn't have a lot of oil.  The invasion of Iraq didn't make a lot of sense once we found out that the WMD's were a paranoid fantasy of the administration, but oil might explain it all.  Or at least the opportunity to claim some, which didn't work out yet for Haliburton, but might happen in the future.\n\nOh, yeah, I hear that Pakistan DOES have a nuke or two...

MY MOM CARRYS A GUN.knowing this would you try to rob,carjack,or rape her?

I have told there is a town in Texas (?) where it is mandatory for all allowable residents to carry a gun at all times, they are given instruction on it's use etc. The street gun crime rate is almost non-existent. Gun toting criminals have found out the hard way, to go somewhere else.\nSensible use of guns should be applauded.\nTake this scenario\nGuy pulls gun on couple walking back from theatre, he hears from all around him, "hold it one moment sucker" and finds that maybe 20 people have pulled their guns and pointing them at him, at the same time due to their training the couple have dropped to the ground and have their own guns out.... not a very auspicious moment for the mugger.\n\nI am not advocating the carrying of guns without due training, that is like giving a 10 year old the keys to a Porche... crazy.....

If you think Hannity is honest, I have a piece of land in Timbucktoo to sell ya. \n\nWhat Hannity is good at is dismissing facts, attacking the messenger, cutting off and redirecting his guests if they disagree with him, and he has total disregard for honesty. \n\nExamples...See what he said about the Abner Louima Case, you know, the guy that was sodomized by NYPD officers. Hannity said he fabricated the story and his claims of being sodomized by the officers was really from gay sex. Guess who confessed to what Mr. Louima claimed they did. Yup, the officers who committed this heinous crime. Did Hannity apologize? Uh, nope. \n\nHannity was spouting on his talk radio show that "liberal anti-war protestors" were heckling families of fallen veterans at funeral processions. He cherry picked local news reports to support the charge. Guess who was/is responsible for heckling the families?? Anti-gay protestors from Westboro Baptist Church. Did Hannity fess up and apologize?? Uh, nope. \n\nHannity's quotes about the Kosovo intervention when Clinton was president...\n\n"There's no exit strategy."\n"We've hurt the people we're trying to help."\n\nHe threw criticisms left and right at Clinton.\n\nWhat war does that sound like?? \n\nWhat does he say about Iraq? He frequently criticizes opponents of the Iraq war for undermining the war effort and giving strength to our enemies. \n\nThat's just a tidbit of what Hannity is really like. Honest?? Hannity is the farthest thing from being honest. Vote for him for president? That would be insane.


if some sues u do u pay their legal cost wat it cost them to sue u?

Usually not in the United States, usually so in England.  (in the United States, we call the rule that the loser pays attorneys' fees "The English Rule.")\n\nHowever, there are lots of exceptions. The most common is if something is suing you for breaking a contract whcih has a clause saying if someone breaks this contract, they have to pay the other side's legal fees.  Some laws also provide that someone suing under that law can collect attorneys' fees -- violation of copyright, in some circumstances, for example.\n\n(Note that I am talking about attorneys' fees. This is the big element of the cost of suing someone. A small element is what lawyers call "costs" or court costs, and a person sued often has to pay those, even if they don;t have to pay attorneys' fees.)


How do you wind-up your racquet when serving?

Make sure your feet are pointing in the right direction first of all... keep your shoulders pointing towards where you want to serve it.  Then you have to make sure your serving grip is right, otherwise you will just push the ball over.  Once you figure that out, count off two slow counts (1....2....)and at 2 you should be at the top of your swing going on your way down behind your head.  On 3 you should have already started to swing up from behind your head.  Pronate your wrist at the top of your swing, and follow through over the front of your body.  Also a lot of practice on the ball toss is always usefull.  You can figure out different types of spins and change the speed depending a lot on the toss, and how you follow through.


i would like to know immediately on the mahaweli irrigation scheme in sri lanka.please answer me now!?

usually i look for these things on wikipedia but all i could find was "the geography of sri lanka". heres a paragraph from that article:\n\nThe nature of agricultural pursuits in Sri Lanka has changed over the centuries and has usually depended upon the availability of arable land and water resources. In earlier times, when villagers had access to plentiful forests that separated settlements from each other, slash-and-burn agriculture was a standard technique. As expanding population and commercial pressures reduced the amount of available forestland, however, slash-and-burn cultivation steadily declined in favor of permanent cultivation by private owners. Until the 13th century, the village farming communities were mainly on the northern plains around Anuradhapura and then Polonnaruwa, but they later shifted to the southwest. In the 1980s, wide expanses of the northern and eastern plains were sparsely populated, with scattered villages each huddled around an artificial lake. The Jaffna Peninsula, although a dry area, is densely populated and intensively cultivated. The southwest contains most of the people, and villages are densely clustered with little unused land. In the Central Highlands around Kandy, villagers faced with limited flat land have developed intricately terraced hillsides where they grow rice. In the 1970s and 1980s, the wet cultivation area was expanding rapidly, as the government implemented large-scale irrigation projects to restore the dry zone to agricultural productivity. In the 1980s, the area drained by the Mahaweli Ganga changed from a sparsely inhabited region to a wet rice area similar to the southwest. Through such projects, the government of Sri Lanka has planned to recreate in the dry zone the lush, irrigated landscape associated with the ancient Sinhalese civilization.

Each step in evolution, even cultural evolution, has to be an improvement over the one before, or it won't last.\n\nI think that the evolution of culture shows that when people cooperate, they all do better.\n\nI think it was Desmond Morris who wrote that the huge amount of learning that human children have to do to live in a culture was made possible by their extremely slow rate of growth before sexual maturity (about 12-18 years), compared to other primates.  And often our culture stretches this out even further, causing a lot of tension between the generations.\n\nIn highly complex cultures like ours, children are often 20 years old or older before they have finished their education and are ready to be fully responsible adults.  In less complex societies, you might see that a child of 12 or 13 has learned enough to become a member of adult society.

How does potassium reverse the effects of periodic paralysis?

Well usually the periodic paralysis is caused by a deficiency in potassium, generally because of some kind of metabolic problem. Muscles need potassium to be able to work, and if your body is potassium depleted, you end up paralysed. Thus, replacement of potassium restores the normal electrolyte balance of the body and reverses the paralysis.


Anxiety can be caused by lots of different things.It may be that you are suffering from depression and it is manifesting as anxiety. You may have something on your mind which you are not accepting (ie in denial about.) You may be suffering from a nervous condition, which may have some physical cause. The best thing to do is to visit your doctor and get some professional advice. Also, take time to relax. Give yourself periods in the day for you to just be. Try a bit of focussed breathing (be aware of each breath, and breath naturally.) You may be suffering from a stress related condition, if so it could be useful to take stock of your lifestyle and see if there are any positive changes that you could make. The important thing is not to become anxious about the anxiety, which is common problem with such a situation. Anxiety is a physical reaction, and when you feel like this give yourself 20mins to half an hour to allow the chemicals in your body to balance out again. Hope this is some use.X

How can calling people an idiot prove there is a God?

First, tabbymomma is not making a statement or asking a question about whether or not god exists, or the veracity of atheism versus agnosticism versus Christianity.  What she is asking, is why do people call other people idiots when they are trying to convince them that their view is right?\n\nI agree with her.\n\nIt seems the "debate" in here consists of believers and non-believers calling each other idiots.  This is not a debate.  Neither is telling a non-believer he/she is going to hell, or telling a believer they are in the thrall of ignorant superstition.  Debate involves respecting your opponent, and his or her ideas, while you are pointing out what you believe are the fallacies.  In the very least, it involves a little civility.\n\n___________________________________________________________\n\nOh, and an agnostic is not a "pansy" atheist.  Agnostics hold that, ultimately, the existence or non-existence of divinity can not be proven one way or the other (and, the absence of evidence is not the evidence of absence), so this is a question which is ultimately unanswerable and unknowable.  This is different from atheists, who believe there is no god at all.

Hmm, actually, I'd place Rainman at the moderate-severe end of the Autism Spectrum.  Mild Autism would present itself with a language delay, lack of full eye contact, possibly sensory integration issues, social and/or behavioral issues.  Autism is so different in every individual, so it is really hard to tell.  Look at a list of signs and symptoms, and become familiar with them.  Best of luck!


If we all knew for certainty we had eternal life....?

If we knew that we would be here eternally, all people  over the world would be totally different. The idea that we are finite beings, seems to work out well for most of us. I personally would love to know that, through all of my efforts, that I will be in that final number. I want to be infinite and meet with the Lord because I followed his rules and treated my fellow persons with respect. I am a happy person because I am justified in the Lord. God Bless.


What do you think about everything that is going on in the news about immigration?

Round 'em up and ship 'em out... back to their own countries!\nThey are draining, (no, bankrupting!), our country through our school system; our emergency care facilities, (and hospitals), our already over-crowded highways, (and most driving without insurance, thereby causing our rates to go up with all the payouts!); depressing home values in some areas where they have congregated; not paying into our tax base for wages earned in cash under the table; sending a large portion of what they do earn back to their families in whatever country they're from, (thereby draining our economy and growing theirs!); They're swelling our welfare roles - signing up for and receiving money they haven't paid into or aren't even eligible for; destroying public and private property where they're coming into our country through; demanding rights which they don't have and waving their country's flag in our faces; swelling an already bulging population with more children being born to them, (per family), than the average American family is!\nGEEEEEZ! What else do you need to know? How is it that this is even an issue being debated in this country when it should be a no-brainer? Are their really that many "STUPID" Americans here, or is it possible that the press and the rest of the media are falsly reporting the issues? And this argument about them doing jobs that Americans won't do... BULLSHIT!! There are so many options here that I'm not even going to dignify this propaganda with a response!\nHey... just because these "poor" people want a better life for themselves and their families is NO excuse for running the fenceline into our country illegally! Their poor life is NOT our problem! It's theirs and their country of origin! If they don't like the way their country is being run, "THEY" need to change it!!! Why should "THEY" be rewarded for crossing our borders illegally, instead of following our country's immigration laws and processes that all others must comply with for gaining entry into the U.S. legally? I have heard no one make a valid argument for these illegals... NOT ONE!!!\n\nThere now... I got that off my chest!\n(I feel much better now, thank you!)

Where abouts is the best   UK university to go to if i want to be a nursery teacher?

Check out Chester University. That's where I went. It's very pretty and middle class.\nRemember in UK you do not need a university education to teach at nursery level you only need a vocational course. Unless you want to study education for pre-school children in which case I could suggest a degree in developmental psychology instead.\nIf you have a vocational qualification in pre-school education from another country it should count in your favour to get work in this field in Britain.


Why is the Catholic Religion so full of double standard practices and corruption,why do so many support it?

If you look at how religions are designed you will see the many similarities to a cult. How does a Cult work? They use influence and persuasion. If you research these things you will see that they have been designed to reach every type of person in the world. Just as advertising uses the same tools.  Through authority, scarcity, guilt, need of fulfillment and so on. I didn't really think about it until I read your question, but I think what Catholicism has done is used the most powerful cult designed by the most wise, God. They have added things such as praying to idols and creating dependency on the church with confession to bring more people in. By doing these things more people have been deceived. You cant blame them, only pray for them. Look at how many people have come together for man made religions and cults. Perhaps through Catholicism Satan will unify religion. This is why they are the richest religious establishment in the world. It is written that Satan will tell 100 truths and 1 lie. He has taken Gods word which cannot be contested even by him and used it against us. This shows even more so how Satan will and has been able to complete everything he has. If the church is behind it everyone that follows the church will be too. For everyone else who doesn't follow anything, they are already his. Wow!! If by the way I wrote this you think Im anti religion your wrong. Im Christian and pray that more people will see through this deceit.

will I get the job I am going for on thursday?

I can't make any predictions as I'm not psychic! However I'd suggest you do as much research about the company as possible as it shows interest and you can drop little facts about the company into conversation as you talk and if you haven't been there before then do a 'reccy' and travel there (by bus, train, car) before the day so that you know exactly how long it will take you to travel there.\n\nTurn up 20 minutes early and enter the building/reception area exactly 10 minutes early. Smile and be friendly but don't crack jokes or be over-familiar.\n\nFor all you know, the woman interviewing you may be a single mother too. Try to put yourself in their position. What will they want from a candidate?\n\n1 - Someone who will not have frequent absences when childcare plans? Be prepared to reassure them that you have VERY reliable childcare\n\n2 - Someone who is not likely to quit after just 5 months? Make it clear to them that you are looking to settle down in a job and develop with the role\n\nTry to think what they will want from you, anticipate the most likely questions and concerns and have answers already prepared.\n\nGOOD LUCK! :)


Can you be held in contempt of court for refusing to swear or "affirm" on the bible?

I've been an attorney since 1993 and most of my practice is litigation.  The only time I have ever seen a witness swear on a Bible is on TV.


how does the districts attorney decide to prosecute?

Many things go into the decision, the first is making sure that a specific statute or law applies to the offence. Second, unless they can be reasonably sure of a conviction, they will not proceed because they all rely on the arrest vs. conviction record when it's time to be elected again.


Would windows in a castle around 40 A.C.E. have glass?

100 A.D.\nThe Roman connection\nThe Romans also did much to spread glassmaking technology. With its conquests, trade relations, road building, and effective political and economical administration, the Roman Empire created the conditions for the flourishing of glassworks across western Europe and the Mediterranean. During the reign of the emperor Augustus, glass objects began to appear throughout Italy, in France, Germany and Switzerland. Roman glass has even been found as far afield as China, shipped there along the silk routes.\n\nIt was the Romans who began to use glass for architectural purposes, with the discovery of clear glass (through the introduction of manganese oxide) in Alexandria around AD 100. Cast glass windows, albeit with poor optical qualities, thus began to appear in the most important buildings in Rome and the most luxurious villas of Herculaneum and Pompeii.\n\nWith the geographical division of the empires, glass craftsmen began to migrate less, and eastern and western glassware gradually acquired more distinct characteristics. Alexandria remained the most important glassmaking area in the East, producing luxury glass items mainly for export. The world famous Portland Vase is perhaps the finest known example of Alexandrian skills. In Rome's Western empire, the city of Köln in the Rhineland developed as the hub of the glassmaking industry, adopting, however, mainly eastern techniques. Then, the decline of the Roman Empire and culture slowed progress in the field of glassmaking techniques, particularly through the 5th century. Germanic glassware became less ornate, with craftsmen abandoning or not developing the decorating skills they had acquired.\n\n11th century\nSheet glass skills\nThe 11th century also saw the development by German glass craftsmen of a technique - then further developed by Venetian craftsmen in the 13th century - for the production of glass sheets. By blowing a hollow glass sphere and swinging it vertically, gravity would pull the glass into a cylindrical "pod" measuring as much as 3 metres long, with a width of up to 45 cm. While still hot, the ends of the pod were cut off and the resulting cylinder cut lengthways and laid flat. Other types of sheet glass included crown glass (also known as "bullions"), relatively common across western Europe. With this technique, a glass ball was blown and then opened outwards on the opposite side to the pipe. Spinning the semi-molten ball then caused it to flatten and increase in size, but only up to a limited diameter. The panes thus created would then be joined with lead strips and pieced together to create windows. Glazing remained, however, a great luxury up to the late Middle Ages, with royal palaces and churches the most likely buildings to have glass windows. Stained glass windows reached their peak as the Middle Ages drew to a close, with an increasing number of public buildings, inns and the homes of the wealthy fitted with clear or coloured glass decorated with historical scenes and coats of arms.\n\n\nPossibly, but high quality didn't emerge until 1,000 years later.

What is the most useful tools for making profit from trading stock options?

There are people that do make money trading options, but it is not for the faint hearted. You are paying a premium for the right to buy or sell the stock at a particular price within a certain amount of time. \n\nLuck is your most useful tool. If you get lucky and hit a stock during a major move, you will make a lot of money. If you hit a stock at the end of its move, you will loose the amount paid for the options. The more volatile the stock the higher the premium for the option. \n\nMany professionals use the Black-Scholes Pricing Formula for Call Options. Look it up on Yahoo to determine how it works. It is too complicated to go into here.\n\nPersonally I think the best way to make money on options is to write covered calls. That way you get the premium. Of course, if the stock makes a big move on you, some one else gets the benefit of that.


can i rename a folder as con in windows operating system. if not why?

No, because in programming terms, 'con', is short for console, which means your screen. It is used to send output to 'con' or the console. It's an internal command in DOS and the word 'con' cannot be used by anything else... if you absolutely insist that you have a folder named con, name it C-o-n, C_o_N or c0n, <--C zero n  that's the only way i know of to do it


They usually shoot big loads because . . . they reserved it for the scene.\n\nOh they play around but it is usually the first blast that have the biggest load . . . and each subsequent blast is smaller depending on the time since they last exploded.\n\nIt is usually the first load . . . I believe they use in the film making and they clean up and continue to increase the length of the performance.\n\nNo proof . . . just an idea.


What exactly is Area 51 and why is it such a secret?

Area 51, also known as Groom Lake, is a secret military facility about 90 miles north of Las Vegas. The number refers to a 6-by-10-mile block of land, at the center of which is a large air base the government will not discuss. The site was selected in the mid-1950s for testing of the U-2 spyplane, due to its remoteness, proximity to existing facilities and presence of a dry lake bed for landings. Groom Lake is America's traditional testing ground for "black budget" aircraft before they are publicly acknowledged. The facility and surrounding areas are also associated -- with varying levels of credibility -- with UFO and conspiracy stories. In 1989, Bob Lazar claimed on a Las Vegas television station that he had worked with alien spacecraft at Papoose Lake, south of Area 51. Since then, "Area 51" has become a popular symbol for the alleged U.S. Government UFO cover-up. \n\nHope that was helpful.

Is Freddie Mercury still alive? I guess I saw him in Reno last spring...?


∫ [f(x) / (1 + x)^2]dx, where f(x) is a polynomial of degree two in x, such that f(0)=1,f(1)=3,f(-1)=5.?

Since f(x) is a polynomial of degree two in x,\nLet f(x) = ax^2 + bx + c, where a,b,c are constants.\n\nLet's find f(x) first.\n\nf(0) = 1 implies, c = 1.\n\nf(1) = 3 implies, a + b + c = 3\nor  a + b = 2 , or b = 2 - a  ...(1)\n\nf(-1) = 5 implies, a - b + c = 5\nor a - b = 4 ...(2)\n\nSubstituiting (1) into (2), we get,\n\na - [ 2 - a  ] = 4\n2a = 6 or a = 3.\nThus, b = 2 - a = 2 - 3 = -1.\n\nHence, f(x) = 3x^2 - x + 1\n\nNote that by long division or by the identity below,\n\n3x^2 - x + 1 = 3(x + 1)^2 - 7x - 2\n             \nWe get,\n\n[ 3x^2 - x + 1 ] /[1 + x]^2 = 3 - [7x + 2]/ [1 + x]^2   \n\nAnd that together with below,\n\n[7x + 2]/ [1 + x]^2  = 7 /(x + 1) - 5 /(x+1)^2\n\nGives,\n\n[ 3x^2 - x + 1 ] /[1 + x]^2 = 3 - 7 /(x + 1) + 5 /(x+1)^2\n  \nNow, we have an "integratable form".\n\n∫ [f(x) / (1 + x)^2] dx\n\n= ∫ [3x^2 - x + 1] / (1 + x)^2] dx\n\n= ∫ [ 3 - 7 /(x + 1) + 5 /(x+1)^2 ] dx\n \n= 3x - 7 log(x + 1) - (5/[x + 1]) + C\n\nwhere C is any arbitary constant.\n\nNote: Sometimes log(x + 1) can also be written as ln (x + 1)\n\nRemark. It is generally accepted that log and ln are both in base "e", the Euler number. If its in a different base, then usually its said or stated. For example logarithm of x in base 2 can be written as log_2(x).\nJust symbols :)\n\nRegards

"Of one Essence is the human race,\n    thus has Creation put the Base;\n    One Limb impacted is sufficient,\n    For all Others to feel the Mace." \nSaadi, the Persian poet.\nBut Aryans, as we find out from DNA tests from newly found ancient bones, are greed-eyed tall dark hair people who were originally from Siberia. Persians (or Iranians), Germans, Medians(Kurds) are Aryan but climate causes lots of changes... as you see.But for example I'm a pure Aryan and I'm Iranian ...


Can Social Security survive the Baby Boomer retirement?

The one thing you are not factoring into your formula are the billions upon billions of investment dollars that the Boomers will soon be drawing out of retirement accounts. Most of that money will be taxable.\n\nBesides that fact, social security is not something guaranteed under the Constitution and should be done away with. The 10th Amendment states:\n\n"The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people."\n\nSocial security was an ill-thought out program rushed through Congress with FDR's New Deal. Many of the problems we face as a nation have their roots in the New Deal. Any governmental program that is based on open or enforced enrollment is doomed to fail at some point - the rolls just grow too large for the base to handle.\n\nWhat this country needs to do is teach people fiscal responsibility and how to prepare for their own retirement. PRIVATIZING social security is the first step. The program that was suggested was a mirror image of the Thrift Savings Plan (TSP) available to every Federal government employee. I have two such accounts (one for my civilian job and one for my National Guard job), and BOTH accounts have grown by an average of 60% over the last two years. They do not allow people to invest in whatever they want - contrary to what the Democrats and liberals would have you believe. They consist of five very structured mutual funds based on market indexes. If it is good enough for the President and for Congress, it is good enough for me.\n\nPhasing it in - as was proposed - is the right answer, too. It allows people to keep receiving social security benefits but eventually weans people off of the government rolls.\n\nThe irony of liberals and Democrats not supporting privatized social security is this: They are the first ones that claim you cannot trust the government, yet they want the entire nation to trust the government with their retirement.


is it okay for girls to masturbate or is it only okay for guys to do it?

it is a beautiful thing for a girl to masturbate.


what sort of question is it going to take for me to win tickets to this world cup. Answers on a postcard .?

you just need to have a ton of best answers and hope you get picked.


Yeah, first you'll know by looking on your computer ROM cover, It'll say "DVD-RW" if you see this there then you can burn but if it say CD-RW then you can only burn cd and not dvd. Knowing what entension your video can play, first look at your video player manua if you still have it, you'll see all kind of format your video support, then you'll know which format to use and yeah you can freeware to convert them, Nero software can also burn movie that you can play on most DVD player so if you have Nero software you can use it and choose the DVD option and let it do the rest.\ngood luck.


I have had a problem with wetting my panties and wetting the bed. I am a 17 year-old girl.?

I know this is an embarassing condition, and talking to a Dr would help but it is hard to bring up.  Maybe it would be easier to bring it up to another female.  The school nurse would also be able to help.  She will not judge you or make fun of you, but will handle the matter professionally.  Some questions that he or she will want to know and for you to consider:\n\n1.  Has this been a problem since childhood, or is it a recent occurence?\n\n2.  Do you have any other muscle control problems or any other type of nerve disorders?\n\n3. Are you having any certain emotions that may be causing it, (not just and effect of it) and how many times a day does this happen?\n\n4.  are there any other symptoms that accompany it such as tingling, burning?  Do you have a fever or other pains?  This may indicate a bladder, kidney, or complete urinary tract infection.  Have you had unprotected sex? It could be caused by an STD.\n\n5.  Is your urine unusually smelly, have floaty things in it, pink or bloody?\n\n6. Are you able to feel the NEED to urinate (us people who think we know everything call it "urgency")? OR, do you feel the need to urinate and then you try to go but just a trickle comes out? How many times a day do you pee?  How much do you drink?\n\nthere are probably more things that you need to consider but this is just a small list.  I hope you find out what is going on.  Just be ready to answer some of these questions.  I hope this helps.


What are the basics for using a down payment assistance program to buy a home?

I am a mortgage specialist.  Many communities use these grant monies to induce people to move into certain areas of a city or state.  General restrictions are that the home owner must live in the property for 10-15 years.  If you sell or refinance within that period, generally the grant amount must be repaid back to the municipality that granted it.  If you need more information, please contact me at wwi_2@yahoo.com

What info can you give me on the police baton?

For a truly accurate answer (as I know thou must be seeking here) you must contact your local Police/Law Enforcement agency. The reason being that there are so many different types being used by different Departments, and different batons serve different purposes. There are wood, metal, high impact plastic, long (for riots), short (for Rodney King... sorry - I couldn't help it... nyuk, nyuk, nyuk!) for street and everyday use, and new collapsible metal ones that fit in a little pouch on the belt and look like a mini mag light. One snap and it goes from mini mag light to a 24 inch head crackin' force to be reckoned with (ooh, ooh!)! Hope this helps!


Which of the following aqueous solutions contains the greatest number of ions?

Well, look at each species. NaCl dissociates into two ions, giving a strength of 0.20M. In 400 mL, that'd be 0.08 moles.\n\nFeCl3 dissociates into four ions, giving a strength of 0.40M. In 200 mL, that'd also be 0.08 moles.\n\nCaCl2 dissociates into three ions, giving a strength of 0.30M. In 300 mL, that'd be 0.09 moles.\n\nKBr dissociates into two ions, giving a strength of 0.20M. In 200 mL, that'd be 0.04 moles.\n\nSo, the calcium chloride (CaCl2) solution contains the greatest number of ions.\n\n\nHope this helped.

I find it difficult to study at home or in any place with my parents coz i get bored and unhappy. why?

Because no one else is studying. Get a drom or go to the library where everyone is miserably studying. You'll see you're not the only one not having fun. \nGet away from ppl who aren't in your situation, you just get subconsciosly jeolous and it will lead you astray from your studies. Next thing you know you'll be dropping out or "putting school on hold"\nLife isn't a/b fun, untill you get too old to have it. Or unless you become really rich....but then you still wont be satisfied with what you have.\nSo....just stop bitching and study. Its easier to be young, bored, and rich than to be old and not rich.

I'm so confused about college, medical school, and whatever is next!?

The above person has given you good advice.  I'll just add a bit to it by giving you a rough timetable, and some pointers.\n\nFirst, you will have to apply to colleges.  Most college applications will be due in December or January.  Make sure you apply to more than one college (perhaps five or so), since most students do not get into every school to which they apply.  Do your research before you select these colleges.  Visit websites like collegeconfidential.com, princetonreview.com, and look at annual rankings of colleges in  publications like "US News and World Report."  Look for information that is important to you, like location, available majors, cost, and the percentage of graduates who are successful in getting into medical school.  Also, make an appointment with your high school's guidance counselor, who should be a great help to you as you choose schools, and put your applications together.\n\nYou will also want to apply for federal financial aid using the FAFSA form.  It is due in January or February as well.  Your guidance counselor should be able to help with this as well.  \n\nMost colleges will inform applicants of their admissions decisions in April.  You will then have a few weeks to decide where you'd most like to go.  Compare their financial aid offers, and weigh their pros and cons before you make your final decision.\n\nSince you are not really familiar with what college is about, and you probably don't know what classes you should take, you should definitely begin college in August or  September, whenever the college you choose begins its regular school year.  That way, you can attend the formal orientation (these usually begin a week before classes start in the fall) where you can meet with an advisor who will help you choose your courses, meet other students, and familiarize yourself with the environment.\n\nMost good colleges and universities will have advising offices, where you can go for advice about how best to make yourself a good candidate for medical school.  \n\nThis is just general advice, but I hope you find it helpful.  I was the first in my family to attend college too, and it was a confusing process.  Things ended up great for me, and I'm sure things will turn out well for you, too.


Everyone who is born again by the Holy Spirit of God is a "real" Christian. Any other definition comes from men and not God. However, there are different levels of Christian maturity and commitment and Christ likeness. Also there are people who claim to be Christians because they go to church and have heard the gospel message but are not true Christians.\n\n1 Corinthians 12:13  For in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body--Jews or Greeks, slaves or free--and all were made to drink of one Spirit.\n\n1 Corinthians 3:1 But I, brothers, could not address you as spiritual people, but as people of the flesh, as infants in Christ.  (2)  I fed you with milk, not solid food, for you were not ready for it. And even now you are not yet ready,  (3)  for you are still of the flesh. For while there is jealousy and strife among you, are you not of the flesh and behaving only in a human way?\n\nMatthew 13:19  When anyone hears the word of the kingdom and does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what has been sown in his heart. This is what was sown along the path.  (20)  As for what was sown on rocky ground, this is the one who hears the word and immediately receives it with joy,  (21)  yet he has no root in himself, but endures for a while, and when tribulation or persecution arises on account of the word, immediately he falls away.  (22)  As for what was sown among thorns, this is the one who hears the word, but the cares of the world and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and it proves unfruitful.  (23)  As for what was sown on good soil, this is the one who hears the word and understands it. He indeed bears fruit and yields, in one case a hundredfold, in another sixty, and in another thirty."

Under current MLB rules, can a pitcher switch to another position, and pitch again after that?

As long as the player does not leave the lineup, he can play anywhere the manager puts him.  He can go play first base for one batter, for example, and then come back and pitch to the next batter.  He just can't be taken completely out of the game and then re-enter it.

what is the connection of language to reading?

I am not sure what kind of reply you are expecting... but here is a very general one. \nIf you are talking about mother tongue, then I would say the connection is that the wider your spoken vocabulary is, the more you can undersatand in reading. Which means you don't have to stop every time you read an unknown word. On the other hand, reading is known to improve spoken language. For instance, I have learned in pedagogy classes that if a child reads only 20 minutes a day, he will most probably learn around new 6 words just by grasping meaning from the context, and even more words if he searches for the unknown words in the dictionary.  \nIf you are talking about a foreign language, it is quite obvious that the better proficiency you have in that foreign languge, the faster you can read. And all the above things I said go the same here too. Reading improves spoken language, by increasing the active vocabulary of a person.

Should i tell him that i like him even if there's a bigger chance that he doesn't like me back?

Of course you should.  Because if you don't then you will always be thinking what if...  I used to be like you and thought about doing things and never actually doing them.  Now I look back and think what if.. but I actually changed and now I do things that I would have not done back then.  Also guys are sometimes shy especially if they like someone and sometimes they don't have the courage to ask a girl out especially if it a friend that they like.

If 2 is the square root of 4, what is the square root of minus 1 and why would you care?

Maybe in mathematics sqrt of -1 = i, but in electrical engineering it is j.\nIn electrical engineering and related fields, the imaginary unit is often written as j to avoid confusion with a changing current, traditionally denoted by i.\n\nThis represents the imaginary component of electronics which cannot be ignored. Phasor diagrams may help to explain this phenomenon. A phasor is a constant complex number representing the complex amplitude (magnitude and phase) of a sinusoidal function of time. It is usually expressed in exponential form. Phasors are used in engineering to simplify computations involving sinusoids, where they can often reduce a differential equation problem to an algebraic one.

how do i lose my love handles and my fat around my belly button???

You cannot "spot" reduce.To lose the fat around your middle you need to incorporate cardio activities such as walking,running or swimming.You also have to cut your intake of calories.Our country is so caught up in low carb this and that but if you eat too much and don't move you will get fat!!It takes 30-45 minutes of cardio 4-5 days a week for effective weight loss.Try to lift weights 2-3 days a week also.This is the simplest way,eat 250 calories less a day AND burn 250 calories more a day to lose 1 pound a week.3500 calorie deficit=1 pound.You will burn about 100 calories a mile whether you walk or run it!!The only reason running burns more,is that we cover more miles in a shorter period of time!You may want to go to ediets.com and get on their diet program,one of the best on the web!

Where can I find out how to build a homemade roller coaster?

Personally I would use 2 metal rods and a ball bearing or marble.  bend rods so they are spaced the same with loops first and then hills.  then find a way to project marble or ? with enough force to stay on track without falling off. try different speeds and re bending rods until satisfactory results are obtained.\n\nThat would be much easier than trying to do all the math required, then obtaining the speeds and angles required to build an actual roller coaster.\nThis should be acceptable for classroom project.

does any one have any sucess stories for the treatment; conventional or alternative of tachycardia.?

Also known as SVTs, it describes a very rapid heart rate. It would be helpful to know the underlying rhythm (ie: atrial flutter, atrial tachycardia, etc...) If you find out, post this question again. It would be helpful to know a few other things about you, so I'll have to give a broad answer. The heart is unique tissue that beats when it receives electrical impulses (you may have seen actors who pose as "dead patients" on t.v. get "shocked" in the ER with electricity to help their hearts beat again). With SVTs, a part of your heart gets "excited" and starts to shoot off it's own electrical impulses, which can cause the heart to beat out of rhythm, and very fast. You should see a cardiologist and have a few tests such as a 12-Lead EKG, 2d echo, holter monitor, blood & thyroid tests, and possibly a stress test. Many young females get SVTs, which is usually harmless and do not cause any longterm problems. These cases can be treated with simple lifestyle modifications that can minimize attacks (such as sleeping better, reducing stress and eliminating caffeine products). Patients can do Valsalva manuevers to stop SVTs. As far as alternative, homeopathic, etc... there are no products that have shown evidence in successfully treating SVTs. If you ever find that your SVTs won't stop, you may get dizzy, get chest pain and your cardiac output will fall and you can pass out. Have someone dip your face/head in a bucket of ice-cold water (the mammalian diving reflex) and call 911. Medications, ablation, cardioversion, etc... are reserved for advanced cases. These patients may be older or have other cardiac issues going on. Or they can get SVTs before or after a heart attack due to changes that occurs in a part of the heart called the "Atrium". I hope I was able to answer some of your questions...


Is it possible to make a 5 word sentence with words that start with the same letter and all rhyme?

Skills still spill shrill swills.\n\nIt doesn't make all that much sense, but it's a correct sentence.  You can rearrange it a bit and add in sill and shill, as in: 'sills still spill shrill swills' or 'still, shills swill shrill spills' etc., but I like the first one best.


Well, they can take inspiration from Trinidad and Tobago which managed to make this year's World Cup as firm underdogs. However, I think it is very unlikely to happen. The USA and Mexico remain the dominant teams.


what are ten qualitys for being in medical fields?

There are many qualites, there are just the ones, I think are important. They're not in any particular order of importance.\n1. You have to be smart to make it through a good college and medical school.\n2. You have to have patience and understand that things won't always happen when you want them to.\n3. You have to sympathize with others. When you're operating and the patient has passed away, you need to tell the family face to face.\n4. You have to be passionate about your job. It's usually long hours.\n5. You have to love the people you treat, each and every one of them. It's hard at times, but even if people don't show, they care about your opinino so much.\n6. You have to have responsibility for your actions. If you have someone the wrong prescription or operated and made a mistake, you have to step up and say, "It was my fault."\n7. You have to be honest, because people appreciate that.\n8. You have to have a reasonably good sense of "people skills" so you can make your patients comfortable in the enviroment.\n9. You have to realize that sometimes your patients needs come before your own and you have to make sacrifices from time to time.\n10. You have to be mature. People trust you, and it's your job to keep their trust and confidence.\nI hope I've helped  you a little.\nJ'adore,\nConnie


What Should I tell this girl?I want her to be apart of my life ever since we was in Junior high School?

You should say "Hello, would you like to go out for pizza and a movie this Friday?"


what is the irony in the wife of bath's tale? what is the irony in the miller's tale?

The Wife's story is set in the time of King Arthur, when fairies abounded in England; she ironically praises holy men, such as the friar, for driving them out. The "hero" of the story is a young knight, condemned to death for rape, but reprieved, at the insistence of Arthur's queen. His life will be spared if he can find out, within a year, what thing women most desire. The knight is troubled, but has no choice. \n\nChaucer, through the Miller (whom he ironically disapproves in his narrator's voice) challenges the conventions of rhetoric, subject and values, which he has first carefully exhibited in The Knight's Tale.

my friend needs a sponser to become a us resident what does it mean to bea sponser?

The first step is for the US citizen to file a Petition for Alien Relative, Form I-130, to establish immediate relative qualification on behalf of the alien spouse. The Form I-130 is needed for sponsor relatives to qualify to enter the US as LPRs. The Form I-130 may also be used for other types of immediate relative and family-sponsored preference categories. It is not limited to use for US citizens filing for their alien spouses. On this form, the US citizen is the petitioner, and the alien spouse is the beneficiary. It should be filed at the nearest US Consulate or at the INS District Office where petitioner will be residing, if the couple will be going to the US on PCS orders. The documents to be filed with the I-130 include a birth certificate of the US citizen-petitioner, the marriage certificate (with certified translation, if necessary), and Form G-325A (Biographic Information) and the filing fee.\n\nIf INS denies the Form I-130, appeal is possible.\n\nIf INS approves the Form I-130, then it is forwarded to the State Department. Translations of foreign documents must be submitted with a certification from the translator that he or she is competent to translate and that the translation is accurate. Foreign language documents must be translated in their entirety.


Is fingering a good idea when it comes to women?

All protesters FOR illegal immigrants, will you RIOT if counter protested on May 1st.?

I hear the Mexican government is going to have people at the larger ones. Our secret service will be there to baby sit them. Not a good place to riot.\n\nThe hypocrisy of all this sickens me. It is a federal offense in Mexico to cross into it. Yet their Politicians complain we are talking about doing that up here. \n\nThey work on the problem of illegals in Mexico, only at our request. By handing out maps on how to cross quicker?\n\nIf Illegals wanted to do the world a favor, they would go back and get those slimes out of office.

When you have the sad moments that make you cry, WHY the heck does your nose get stopped up?

Our sinuses, ears nose and eyes are all connected. So when you cry you will experience symptoms in one or sometimes all of these areas. As for the hiccups it is because we forget to breathe properly while upset. We either hold our breath or hyperventilate.

The origin of chess remains a matter of controversy. There is no credible evidence that chess existed in a form approaching the modern game before the 6th century AD. Game pieces found in Russia, China, India, Central Asia, Pakistan, and elsewhere that have been determined to be older than that are now regarded as coming from earlier, distantly related board games, often involving dice and sometimes using playing boards of 100 or more squares.\n\nThe standard for modern sets was established about 1835 with a simple design by an Englishman, Nathaniel Cook. After it was patented in 1849, the design was endorsed by Howard Staunton, then the world's best player; owing to Staunton's extensive promotion, it subsequently became known as the Staunton pattern. Only sets based on the Staunton design are allowed in international competition today.


My Samsung DVD ROM SD-612 does not play DVDs it only recognises it as a normal CD ROM! What do I do?

Try using a lense cleaner. I had an HP cd-rw drive that did the same crap. It would never recognize a bured cd. Well, turns out, this particular CD Burner was made for HP by Samsung. I did a firmware and driver update, that helped alot. But I noticed that if the drive wasn't cleaned freaquently, it would not read burned cd's, or recognise blank ones. So first things, first, try just cleaning it.\n\nIf that doesn't fix it, I highly recomend replacing it!\nI've never had that great of luck with Samsung drives of any kind in a computer. \n\nI highly recomend drives made by LiteOn. They make a fantastic drives and they're very afordable.\n\nIf You want slightly better performance however, Toshiba makes a realy good drive as well. I highly recomend one of their DVD multi drives!\n\nFinaly, Pioneer! A little pricey, but not too bad. I've had a couple of their DVD rom drives. One thing I can say about the Pioneer drives is that they do much better with dirty and scratched Optical disks than most drives I've used. I don't know what their DVD burners cost now adays, but a strait up DVD-Rom shouldn't be more than 30 bucks!


Hmm,\n\nThis is a good question. For starters I'm going to assume that by Europe you mean the European Union, since some countries in Europe don't belong to it.\n\nThe European Union (EU) is an intergovernmental and supranational union of 25 democratic member states having territory on or sociopolitical connections with the European continent. (www.wikipedia.org)\n\nThe Union nowadays has a common single market, [2] consisting of a customs union, a single currency (the euro) managed by the European Central Bank (adopted by 12 of the 25 member states), a Common Agricultural Policy, a common trade policy, a Common Fisheries Policy, and a Common Foreign and Security Policy. (www.wikipedia.org)\n\nIn lamer terms, it is a group of European countries (mostly for the moment) that got together and decided to unify their economies in one single currency also unifying certain policies (like trade, immigration, etc..).\n\nIt is very interesting since the different countries continue being politically independent but have certain unified policies. As opposed to the States within the USA which depend of a Federal Government.\n\nI would say it is an "in between" or hybrid of Unified States under federal law and a Free Trade agreement, like Cafta or NAFTA.\n\nI hope this answers your question.


Is Bushes Neo-Conservative Ideas destroying this country?

You're obviously very worried about the future of the US, and I think your concern is wellfounded.  The key potential danger posed by the actions of the Bush regime has to do with its threat to the "balance of powers" within the US constitutional system.  The idea touted by the Bushies that the Executive branch can do whatever it deems necessary to defend the country from terrorism, without *any* oversight by or accountability to the Legislative or Judicial branches, is a direct assault on a fundamental underpinning of the freedoms we all hold dear.  \n\nThe key to the future of the country is the 2006 elections.  If the Republicans are able to hold on to the power they have now, they will be able to cement that hold by gaming the system beyond recovery, and ordinary working folk will be steamrolled by powerful economic interests.  If they lose some of that power, we may yet be able to salvage our democracy.\n\nMy suggestion to you is that you register to vote, and get as many of your friends to do so as possible.

is there any correlation between fad diets and teens?

Maybe if they stop putting skinny as* celebs in there then some of the weight-loss s*** will finally subside. I mean teens look at Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan and see them ridiculously skinny and they say "Wow!

Elwood Thomas Cooke (born July 5, 1913 in Ogden, Utah – died April 16, 2004 in Apopka, Florida) was an outstanding amateur tennis player in the 1930s and 1940s.\nCooke was ranked in Top 10 in the United States in 1938 (ranked No. 7), 1939 (No. 6), 1940 (No. 9), and 1945 (No. 4).\nAt Wimbledon, he reached the singles final in 1939 before falling to Bobby Riggs, but won the doubles title that year with Riggs. He was the U.S. Indoor Doubles champion with Riggs in 1940.\nAt the historic tournament at Cincinnati, he reached both the singles and the doubles final in 1945. He lost the singles final to future International Tennis Hall of Fame enshrinee Bill Talbert, and the doubles final to Talbert and Hal Surface.\nHe held the Pacific Northwest Sectional singles ranking of No. 2 in 1935, and No. 1 in 1936, and was ranked No. 1 in doubles in the Pacific Northwest (with Don Lewis) in 1935.\nIn the Oregon State Tournament, he won the singles title in 1936, and the doubles title with Wayne Sabin in 1935 and with Sam Lee in 1936. His 1935 win was over Newton and Bennett who had just won the National Intercollegiate Doubles title.\nIn the Pacific Northwest Sectional, he won the singles title in 1935 and 1936, and the doubles title with Wayne Sabin in 1935.

What a bunch of jerks people can be (except the posting just before mine...hi, Annie...good recommendation)!\n\nAnyway... someone who is "dyslexic" is someone with normal or high levels of intelligence (able to catch on to ideas, do hands-on activities, etc. well), who has trouble acquiring print skills. For various reasons, print symbols just don't make natural or instinctive sense for some people. Unfortunately, we now live in a print-reliant society. Print skills are more greatly valued than at any other time in history. So....\n\nIf you don't catch on instinctively to all the phonics rules (e.g. the three different sounds of s, the different ways to spell the long I sound, the five different sounds of "ough," etc.)... if you don't automatically recongize words when you see them, but have to go letter by letter even after years of practice... if you have trouble remembering what you just read, and have to re-read often... \n\nThen you should (as Annie recommended) see an Educational Psychologist or a certified Diagnostician to be tested for a Specific Learning Disability. Being diagnosed opens doors to specialized programs that can help you learn to be more efficient in your attack skills for print. Just because you are not an "insticutal" reader, doesn't mean you can't learn to be a fluent reader. That's why we have the special programs we do in the public schools (given an appropriately trained teacher....).


The Maya calendar is actually a system of distinct calendars and almanacs used by the Maya civilization of pre-Columbian Mesoamerica. These different calendars tracked observable phenomena such as the solar year, the lunar year, and the synodic period of the planet Venus; others had a divinatory or ritualistic purpose without any known association to natural cycles.\n\nThese calendars could be synchronised and interlocked in complex ways, their combinations giving rise to further, more extensive cycles.\n\nThe essentials of the Maya calendric system are based upon a system which had been in common use throughout the region, dating back to at least the 6th century BCE. It shares many aspects with calendars employed by other earlier Mesoamerican civilizations, such as the Zapotec and Olmec, and contemporary or later ones such as the Mixtec and Aztec. Although the Mesoamerican calendar did not originate with the Maya, their subsequent extensions and refinements to it were the most sophisticated. Along with those of the Aztecs, the Maya calendars are the best-documented and most completely understood.\n\nBy the Maya mythological tradition, as documented in Colonial Yucatec accounts and reconstructed from Late Classic and Postclassic inscriptions, the deity Itzamna is frequently credited with bringing the knowledge of the calendar system to the ancestral Maya, along with writing in general and other foundational aspects of Maya culture.


its not just that "heat rises", but that things with lower densities rise above things with higher densities. ice floats in water, helium floats in air, etc.  heat is not an object that can rises, but it is an attribute of particles that affects their density. just like hot air rises, when a flame burns, it produces hot gases that rise. these gases are hot enough to produce light, so we see the light rising with the gases. by the time they have risen above the flame, they are no longer hot enough to give off light, so the flame doesn't go up forever.


why is it that i can answer other peoples questions but not my own?

Can anyone supply a list of lactose-free cheeses?

Hard aged cheeses are generally much lower in lactose, but they aren't lactose free. They might just have a low enough amount that it won't upset your body. Aged sharp cheddar, aged swiss (gruyere, emmentaler), or dry jack might be good options. Another thing you might want to try are raw cheeses (available at many health food stores). A majority of people who are lactose intolerant are not bothered by raw dairy products. It has something to do with the pasteurization process changing the structure of the lactose. They're generally a little more expensive, but it might be worth a try if it means you'd be able to eat cheese.

I am trying to find the meaning of the word Pogeno. If anyone knows, it would be greatly appreciated!!?

It´s a Greek word,in one of the passages of  Peter 2:21-25 \n           \npogeno/menoi - is the nominative masculine first person plural aorist deponent middle participle from the verb APOGINOMAI, which means “to be away,to be off, not to be part of ..."\n\nFollowing Christ's Example: An Exposition of :1 Peter 2:21-25            41\n\n \n\ndeep shame of implied criminality. He expiated the curse of sin \n\non the cross in man's stead.\n\n \n\nTHE PURPOSE OF HIS REDEMPTIVE SUFFERINGS (v. 24b)\n\n            Christ's redemptive sufferings had a practical purpose: "that \n\nwe might die to sin and live to righteousness. " The former aspect \n\nrelates to the believer's sinful past, while the latter depicts God's \n\npurpose for his present life. An experiential realization of the \n\nrelease from sins makes possible a vital personal entry into a life \n\nof righteousness. "That we might die to sin" marks the negative \n\npurpose in Christ's redemptive sufferings. These words render \n\nan aorist participial construction in the original:  i!na tai?j \n\na[marti<aij a]pogeno<menoi ("in order that from the sins having \n\ngotten away"). The participle occurs only here in the New Testa-\n\nment and not at all in the Septuagint. Its root meaning is "to be off \n\nfrom, to have no part in" something; by classical writers it was \n\nused to mean "cease to exist" as a euphemism for death. The \n\naorist tense marks a definite break with sin and looks back to the \n\ntime of their conversion. The dative "sins" (tai?j a[marti<aij) indi-\n\ncates the relationship that has been terminated: "to have ceased \n\nin relation to the sins." The plural denotes all the sins in the \n\npast, those for which Christ died. In the believer's union with \n\nChrist, whose death effected the termination of sin's guilt and \n\ndomination, the believer has been freed from the demands of \n\nsin on him (Rom. 6:2; Col. 3:3). In Him the power of the tyrants \n\nof sin has been broken, enabling the believer, now to be done \n\nwith sins and, by the power of the indwelling Spirit, to enjoy \n\nliberation (Rom. 6:11; 8:12-13).\n\n            The redemption from sin is intended to have a practical effect \n\nin daily life, "that we might ... live to righteousness." Peter's \n\nword order, t^? dikaiosu<n^ zh<swmen ("to the righteousness \n\nwe might live") makes prominent the new relationship in this life. \n\nThe goal of the new life is "the righteousness," that righteousness \n\nwhich God's righteousness and holiness require in His saints and \n\nwhich the indwelling Holy Spirit works in and through His \n\npeople. The singular, "righteousness," in contrast to the plural, \n\n"the sins," implies the unitary nature of this new life, marked by \n\nsubmissive obedience to God and His will in daily life. "That" \n\n(i!na) with the aorist subjunctive, "should live," means that the \n\nredeemed must actually enter in on such a life of righteousness. \n\nOnly in this way is the full purpose of the Cross realized.

What (if any) is the health benefit from working out in heat vs. cold?

I can not believe no one has answered this as yet.  I read some books on loosing weight and one of them stressed keeping your system cool. I can not remember why since all I needed was to do it at the time.  You are trying to change the ratio of muscle to fat and doing exercise slowly helped, I remember this author thought.  Drink lots of cold water.


In Euclidean plane geometry, π may be defined either as the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter, or as the ratio of a circle's area to the area of a square whose side is the radius. Advanced textbooks define π analytically using trigonometric functions, for example as the smallest positive x for which sin(x) = 0, or as twice the smallest positive x for which cos(x) = 0.\n\nAll these definitions are equivalent, they amount to the following numerical value of π, truncated to 50 decimal places:\n\n3.14159265358979323846264338327950288419716939937510


This is a skin condition.\n\n(see below)\nKeratosis pilaris is a skin condition commonly seen on the upper arms, buttocks and thighs. The skin cells that normally flake off as a fine dust from the skin form plugs in the hair follicles. These appear as small pimples that have a dry ''sandpaper'' feeling. They are usually white but sometimes rather red. They usually don't itch or hurt.\n\nKeratosis pilaris is particularly common in teenagers on the upper arms. It may occur in babies where it tends to be most obvious on the cheeks. It may remain for years but generally gradually disappears usually before age 30. Keratosis pilaris is unsightly but completely harmless. It is usually worse during the winter months or other times of low humidity when skin dries out, and may worsen during pregnancy or after childbirth.\n \nTreatment of keratosis pilaris is not necessary, and unfortunately often has disappointing results. With persistence, most people can get very satisfactory improvement. Initial treatment should be intensive moisturizing. Try a cream such as Acid mantle, Vaseline or Complex 15 after bathing, and re-apply the cream again several times daily.\n\nIf this does not help, change to a medicated cream containing urea (Curel, Carmol-20) or alpha-hydroxy acids (Aqua Glycolic, Lacticare) applied twice daily - it may be too irritating to use more often. More aggressive home treatment can be done if ones skin can tolerate it. The plugged pores can be removed by taking long, hot soaking tub baths and then rubbing the areas with a coarse washcloth, stiff brush, or 'Buf-Puf'.\n\nPrescription medicines that may help include antibiotics (Erythromycin, Bactrim) if the spots are very red and Tazorac Cream. Tazorac, a relative of vitamin A, may cause irritation in some people.


Do you wear underwear underneath swim trunks?

In terms of for guys here's the etiquette:\nWith speedos - NO\nWith trunks with mesh inside - incredibly redundant to wear underwear, if you're not a brief guy don't get that kind\nWith board shorts and you're planning to just hang around - Not necessary to wear underwear unless you are planning on sagging (no one wants to see your butt)\nWith board shorts and swimming - Also not necessary unless you like having some support.  But you might want to wear a speedo underneath so you get some support and just in case your board shorts slide down a bit.  Also wearing a speedo underneath is better than wearing underwear because speedos are meant to get wet and underwear will just get soggy and uncomfortable.  \n\nSo really it is a matter of personal preference for most types of guy's swim suits.  Hope that answers it.

why do middle eastern people hate americans so much, cant we just saty here and they stay there?

I don't think all Middle Easterners hate Americans, but I think there are some who abhor Western influence in that region of the world.  There are others who hate us due to intolerant religious dogma and there are others still who hate us for our unwavering support of Israel.  Keep in mind that some of the Islamofascists also seek a global caliphate, where Islamic law is the guiding principle for each nation...no exemption.  Add all of that together and you have a sizeable chunk of the Middle East that hates us, but I hope it isn't all Middle Easterners.
