how did the Great Society resemble the New Deal in its origins,goals, and social and political legacy?

Here's a little info: The Great Society was founded by LB Johnson and based loosely on Roosevelt's New Deal-- The New Deal goals were the three R's:Reform, recovery, and relief, while the goal of the Great Society was to end poverty and racial injustice (this was a form of reforming, recovering and relieving society of the poverty and discrimination)... The social and political legacy of the Great Society is that it started the end of discrimination (Voting Rights Act, etc) and less poverty; the New Deal's legacy was that it helped to end the depression (poverty). As for origins, both were implanted at times of depression(New Deal) and poverty(Great Society).... ok done! that was a good review for my US quiz!

Most multimedia software will only work with digital video.  At least editing video is done digitally.  Even the big expensive video editing labs will transfer their beta/video to digital format, such as Sony EditStation or Final Cut Pro, and then export the digitized format back onto an analog tape.  For home multimedia production, you should get a hold of an analog/digital converter.  I found a nice here:\n\nhttp://dv411.com/advc110.html\n\nIf you need to edit your video, you can go high end and purchase a program like Adobe Premier.  Otherwise, I've found that you can easily do simple editing procedures in QuickTime pro, export your video to mpeg, avi, or mov formats, and retransfer to analog.  Hope this helps!

Why is it only americans who think that all people on yahoo answers are americans?!!!!!!?

Not all of us Americans do.\nHowever, Yahoo is an American company and this is an English-speaking site. I think it's only natural for a lot of people to assume, because of that, that this is being viewed only in America.\nLikewise, if Yahoo were a German or Russian company, we would assume that we were logging in to a site in Germany or Russia. Not America.


well, when they make the soda, they inject carbon dioxide (the gas you exhale as a waste-product of respiration) at a pressure of several atmospheres (atmospheres are just a way of measuring pressure, the earth exerts a pressure of 1 atmosphere at sea-level, less pressure above sea-level, and more below it).  So the CO2 (carbon-dioxide) is injected at a pressure several times greater than normal.  CO2 easily dissolves into most liquids at normal atmospheric pressure, but even more so at greater pressures, therefor allowing larger volumes of gas to be dissolved into said liquid (it also dissolves more easily into colder liquids, which is why cold soda has more "fizz" than warmer ones).  Now that the CO2 is in solution, the container is sealed, so the atmospheric pressure is higher than that outside of the container.  When the container is opened, the pressure is equalized, and these large volumes of CO2 come out of solution, forming small bubbles, releasing the CO2 into the air, as the increased atmospheric pressure is no longer present to keep the CO2 in solution.  Now when you drink it, these small bubbles of CO2 hit your tongue, and the actual "taste" of the fizz, is actually a mild burning sensation caused by carbonic acid.  And that is why soda pop fizzes.  On a related side-note, this is in essence what happens to scuba divers who experience decompression sickness, or "the bends".  Gases which are constantly present in our bodies (in this case we are concerned with the nitrogen that is present), exhibit similar properties to CO2.  As the diver descends, he is increased to increasing pressure, much more so than elevation changes on land, since water is many times heavier and denser than air.  As the pressure increases, more and more nitrogen is absorbed and put into solution in the diver's body tissues.  When it comes time for the diver to ascend to the surface, he must do so slowly, if he does not, the effect is similar to what happens when you open a soda.  If he ascends at a normal pace, the nitrogen is easily released, but if he ascends to quickly, the sudden change in pressure causes the nitrogen to be released very rapidly, therefor forming small nitrogen bubbles in the various body tissues.  In effect, he has been opened like a can of soda.  These bubbles can form in any tissue, leading to extreme pain, deformity (if enough bubbles are formed in the bones), paralysis (if enough bubbles are formed in the spinal column or other major nerve clusters), or even death (if enough bubbles form in the brain).  I hope this answers your questions!

Do I REALLY have a chance to win 2 tickets to the World Cup in Germany for doing this Yahoo thing?

Yes you really have a chance to win 2 tickets to the World Cup in Germany for doing this Yahoo thing.  The odds are of someone actually getting tickets are those candidates who have Zip Codes on their addresses somehow or the other the Caribbean and smaller countries without Zip Codes are left out.  Normally those kind of offers just ring with some type of scam but Yahoo will choose an appropriate winner for the promotional enhancement of their organisational and continued patronage of the network.  Anyone can win, seriously but as I said you must have a Zip Code...


WHO WILL WIN BETWEEN the 8th ranked Edmonton Oilers and the 1st ranked Detroit Red Wings?

I believe Edmonton is going to upset those overrated fat-cat red wings and I for one will rejoice! The Oilers are one of my unsung hero Canadian teams (hey, like, the game was invented there, eh?) and I hope they advance well into the playoffs. I will forever be in their debt if they can knock off the loathsome dead things from detroit and I believe they will do so. Go Edmonton!


Does anyone here like the author Dean Koontz and if so, why?

Dean Koontz is my favorite author.  First of all because he is absolutely spellbinding, I can't put his books down until I've finished them.  Also, a lot of times he writes about things that could happen.  And lastly because once I wrote to him and he responded with a very nice handwritten letter and an autographed picture which I have hanging on my wall, framed.  That tells me he is as great a man as he is a writer.

How to password protect a CD without encryption for all window platforms.?

There is no secure "password scheme" that doesn't involve some sort of encryption. If you don't have encryption, your data is on the disk "in the clear." Anyone with a binary disk reader can easily get it.\n\nTake Windows, for example. Windows doesn't use encryption to protect your files, but it can be configured to password-protect your account. There are hundreds of programs available that can easily reset a Windows password and give anyone access to your files.\n\nEncryption software is no more complex than your word processor, and some encryption software is user-friendly (PGP, WinZip). If you want to keep your data secure, you need encryption.


Do the Atlanta Hawks have a chance of winning the NBA Championship in 2007?

Absolutely not. No inside-outside game that it takes. Joe Johnson is great but everyone who is there eventually ends up leaving...ie Harrington in this upcoming off season. Marvin Williams could develop, but until they have an all around good big guy they will struggle. Besides they are still young and you have to have some playoff experience. Joe Johnson barely played last year in the playoffs due to injury too so that doesn't help them experience wise.

What do u mean by Hashcode ? Please give me the answer in detail.?

A hash is a process of computing one set of data from another set of data.  That sounds pretty basic but there are two things that make it important.  First, it is highly unlikely for two different input values to produce identical output.  Second, it is impossible to determine the input value even if you know the output.\n\nLet's say you have an email that you want to ensure that an email cannot be modified in transit without your knowledge.  First you write your email.  Next your computer computes a hash value based on the contents of the email and attaches that value to the email.  The receiver computes the hash value just as you did.  If his answer matches yours, then the email cannot have been modified.

How does globalisation impact supermarkets?

Globalization effect or impact on supermarket is the same as the effect and impact on supply chain. As the world economy boundary disolve, a supermarket [i.e. Walmart] can have a corporate product planner and finance, but its sourcing, procurement and purchasing may be located elsewhere where manufacturing and supply is located.\n\nBy having local procurement, the supermarket can provide a daily updates on its requirement and future requirements [forecast] to the vendors and supplier, at the same time adjust its weekly purchase order to fit the need.\n\nOn the supplier side, with the crosss continent/cross time zone operation, can provide an efficient supply chain on the goods that supermarket require, based on lowest possible shipping cost and maximum volume.\n\nWhan this process is complete and the cargo arrive US dock or destination, the marekt where the goods is suppose to go will result in a continous supply, at a stable cost and possibly reduce in cost due to volume, at a weekly basis.\n\nOther materials you can read is about how container cargo enjoy the growth due to globalization.

the alkaline earth metals are supposed to be reactive.what does this mean.?

Alkaline earths are in the second column on the periodic table (Be, Mg, Ca, etc.)  They have two electrons in their outer (valence) shell, which they readily give away to form ions with a 2+ charge.  They are not as reactive as the alkali metals (in column 1), but are more reactive than most other elements.  (Reactive refers to how readily they will form compounds with other elements.)\n\nThe noble gases are He, Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe, and Rn.  They are stable because they have full valence shells.  For example, He has 2 electrons, so the first shell is filled, as it can only hold 2. He has 10 electrons, so with 2 in the first shell and 8 in the second, the valence shell is again full, since the second shell can hold up to 8 electrons.  And so on.  The third shell can also hold 8, so Argon's 18 electrons fill its three shells completely.  The fourth shell can hold up to 18 electrons, which is why Krypton has a full four shells with 36 electrons (2+8+8+18).

Can cancer tumors be shrunk in size by certain viruses?

Yes, viral therapy has been used with limited results.  For example, p53 has been put into a viral vector and injected directly into head and neck tumors (if i recall correctly).  Virii are basically used as shuttles to introduce proteins into cells.  However we can't yet specifically and easily target cancer cells.  So usually this is only for solid tumors that are accessable.  So far this isn't a practicle form of therapy.  See the last ref for this therapy type\n\n\nAlso cancer vaccines are being utilized to prompt an immune response against cancer cells.  Despite decades of work I don't think this is a useful mode of therapy yet.  See the first ref for this therapy type.


I have an absyss by my back molar, lower jaw and the molar rotted from inside out...?

Yes for these teeth you have prob. learned to late.  You can't floss every couple of days, it has to be everyday.  If you don't want more decay and rotten teeth, then floss everyday. You need to have these teeth extracted, abscessed teeth are nothing to play with, you can get seriously ill, or even die if you don't have them taken care of.  You need to learn to brush consistently and the right way.  You are not brushing as well on the lower because you are afraid of hitting the decayed teeth. You have to use a soft toothbrush and use small circular strokes with very little pressure.  You have used too much pressure on the lower, which has caused the recession.  I would suggest an electric toothbrush.  Flossing:  go in between each tooth wrap one side of the tooth like a "C" shape and wiggle up and down a few times and then do this to the other tooth in front, going all of the way around the mouth.  Again you don't have to use a lot of pressure, you don't want to injure or cut the gum tissue.  Decay is caused by bacteria and food debris which turns into acid, this causes decay.  Gingivitis and periodontitis are gum conditions.  The problem is you, you have to do the work in order to have a healthy mouth.  I know this is blunt, but you have to wake up and brush as much as possible, floss everyday, and see a dentist about your problem teeth.  Educate yourself on home care and about tooth decay and gum disease.  Use your search engine for help.


What do you think of accents from the Midwestern United States?

Do homosexual penguins go to hell, in your opinion?

Ah, that's adorable! \n\nYou know, no Christian has ever told me what happens to animals after they die. If they do go to heaven, why? How were they judged? Are there especially pious gorillas or tarantulas?\n\nUntil there is unanimous agreement among Christians on what exactly Hell is (because every Christian I've talked has said something different) I'm inclined to believe only in its, let's say, "improbability". It follows that it's highly improbable that those penguins would go to Hell.

How can I get hairspray off my glasses. I've tried everything??

Simple Green! Walmart or any grocery store carries it. Clear bottle dark green liquid. Spray it on half strength and let them sit for a few minutes...then spray them again. Gently rinse off and use the pads of your fingers (Index and middle finger on the outside while your thumb is rubbing on the inside) of the lens. Cloths leave microscopic scratches that ruin your glasses. Hope this helps!

Can I record a sound clip and post it as a comment on someone's myspace?

legally, the simple answer is you cant. To protect other users from malware (malicous software designed to glean information from other people, the designers from Myspace has restricted uploading files to only include formats for pictures and hyperlink-objects (the stuff you get form other websites to put on your page). That being said you could bypass it by placing html code within the comment that would luanch another website with an activex control. HOwever that requires extensive html porgramming experience, and as said earlier, not exactly legal


How can I make a checker board using HTML?

Use a table.  The best way to start is probably to draw it on paper so that you can see it while you're typing it in.  Remember that it starts with a row, then you add cell by cell going left to right.  Each time you add a cell, alternate the bgcolor of the cell \nEx:\n
\n
\n 	\n 	\n 	\n
\n
\n 	\n 	\n 	\n
\n
\n\nThis is just an example, but you should be able to see how to follow...\nP.S. - It's not showing up here, but you need to add ampersand nbsp ; (the escape sequence for a non-breaking whitespace) inside each of your table cells

How often should criminal background checks be done?

Tricky question!  Ideally, we would be running criminal background checks daily, especially with the sensitivity of people today around such issues.  \n\nThe reality is that background checks usually cost money, and that this isn't a viable option.  Minimally, I would strongly recommend an annual background check for all employees and volunteers.  Make sure to get them to sign a release each year, allowing you to complete this.  \n\nIN ADDITION, I would recommend (again, strongly) that you put a written policy in to place, signed by each employee and volunteer requiring them to notify you within 24-hours of ALL CONVICTIONS (not arrests or allegations).  Failure to do so will result in immediate termination, blah, blah, blah.  \n\nIf you have a local paper that prints the Police Beat, make sure you have someone reviewing this regularly, as you never know what you might find in there! This would be probably cause to have a release signed, and an additional background check done.  \n\nOh, and another loophole to throw out at you . . . are you doing your state background checks, or following the path of previous living places?  It has been my experience that smart criminals move to another state in hopes of flying under the radar.  \n\nIf there's anything I can provide to you (an example of our policy or release), please feel free to e-mail me and I'll fax or mail something to you.  \n\nBest of luck! -Scot


how can i unistall a program from my computer that it does not unistall?

Easy way is to install that program again, then uninstall it, so the corrupted uninstaller is replaced with the good one.\nIf still not, I would wonder if you saw any uninstall progress bar run after you initiate the uninstall, if yes, then done, even if you find a couple of files or an entry somewhere.\nIf your worry is the entry on the add/remove program page, run regedit, back up whole registry, search and destroy the entry, then done. \nin case you delete more than you should restore registry and try the search and delete again.


There is more than one stigma attached to mental health conditions. Yes it is uncomfortable, and the stigma most attached that troubles me the worst, is that because the person can't see what is wrong with you, it's as if you are just making it up. If you walk in on crutches, people are much more empathetic, than if they see someone having a panic attack. Terms like "unbalanced, mentally ill" are tossed around pretty freely, without really understanding what is going on. I have a friend who suffers from severe depression and a very severe case of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, and her own family thinks that she could change this, if she would just fight it, get a job, get up in the morning, take a shower, etc... and everything will fall back into place.  I know that mental conditions can do a lot of damage to the person with the illness, but it hurts to have other people trying to diagnose you, and tell you how to get over it, when they really do not have a clue as to what the person with the illness is facing. If you would like to know more info. about a particular illness, or talk about it in greater detail, or if you have more questions, please feel free to e-mail me at brew40fw@msn.com, I hope this helps, and I wish you the best


Help solve America's immigration problem.?

Mexicans are desperate to live in the U.S – they always have and always will. The rich and magnificent neighbor to the North is like a drug that they can’t do without. Husbands and fathers leave their wives and children for years to come to the Promise Land. The choice is clear: live in a country that is corrupt, impoverished, with no future and teaming with disease; or come to a country that is paradise. This is a problem that will never go away. The ONLY solution is to take them over and make the country livable for them.


Buchholz isn't a bad replacement at all.  He's better than the guys suggested in the previous answers.  He should be in the Astros rotation for the forseeable future.  He was also a highly regardeed prospect in the Phillies system coming to Houston in the Billy Wagner trade.  Check if Justin Verlander or Daniel Cabrera is available in your league but if not I'd recommend Buchholz.  Don't pick up Bannister as he's on the DL too.

do you know anyhting interesting about cell walls?

Yes sure:\n\nAll plant cells have a cell wall. Young growing cells, some storage cells and the photosynthesizing cells of leaves, all parenchyma cells have only a primary cell wall. The primary cell wall is thin and formed while the cell is undergoing growth. The cell wall surrounds the protoplast [cell membrane and all its contents]. Continuous pressure by the fluids inside the cell forces the cell membrane against the cell wall. Between the primary walls of adjacent cells is the middle lamella which cements the two cells together by means of an adhesive substance called pectin. Mature cells which stop growing lay a secondary wall. \n\nThe primary cell wall\n\nThe primary wall begins to form between cells that are completing cell division. A cell plate forms where a new cell wall will divide the two daughter cells. The cell plate forms from the microtubules. Microtubules may guide materials towards the cell plate which grows to the outside by addition of materials such as pectin. Much of the materials that form the cell plate become the pectin-rich middle lamella between the two cell walls of the daughter cells. As soon as this middle lamella is formed cells release structural material to build the primary cell wall.\n\nThe primary cell wall is thin relative to the secondary cell wall and the entire cell. It is generally 1 to 3μm thick. It consists of 9 to 25% cellulose. Cellulose molecules are unbranched and are bound together by means of hydrogen bonding into long cylindrical fibres called microfibrils [4.5-8.5nm thick]. The microfibril is a polymer of glucose made up of 30-40 pairs of cellulose molecules.\n\nCellulose molecules are arranged in a parallel form and thus microfibrils have an incredible high tensile strength relative to their weight. This orientation allows cells to elongate, the microfibrils slip past each other and are pulled along the axis of the cell. Recent and older microfibrils are laid over each other perpendicularly as threads in cloth.\n\nThe cellulose microfibrils are embedded in a matrix composed of celluloses, pectin and protein. The matrix is composed mainly of hemicelluloses which from a branching network filled with water. The primary cell wall contains 25 to 50% hemicelluloses. Pectic substances make up 10 to 35 % of the cell primary cell wall. Primary cell walls also have 10% protein involved in cell growth and recognition of antigens.  \n\nThe primary cell wall is also adapted for growth. During growth, growth regulating hormones are produced. These soften the primary cell wall and the microfibrils layers [perpendicular] move apart and slide past each other in the wall filled matrix. This takes place with the aid of water which is absorbed by the protoplast thus forcing a pressure against the cell wall. Thus the wall is stretching plastically [irreversible] as the cell grows.\n\nWhen the cell stops growing and cell division is complete, synthesis of growth regulating hormones is stopped and the microfibrils become entangled losing the organized parallel orientation. Therefore the microfibrils can no longer slide past each other and thus the primary cell wall resists further growing by means of the entangled microfibrils which have a high tensile strength. This makes cell walls resistant to swelling if placed in water.\n\nThe primary wall is porous allowing passage of water and materials dissolved in water. The pores are about 3.5 to 5.2nm in diameter compared to the 0.3nm of the diameter of water molecules. The water and other materials can thus pass through the cell wall medium which is called the apoplast.\n\nLeaves and young stems are made up of cells that have mainly primary cell walls. They are rigid when water forces a pressure against the cell wall, but wilt when water is lost and internal pressure decreases. Thus water together with primary cell walls provides a hydrostatic skeleton. \n\nThe secondary wall\n\nIn many plant cells, a primary wall is not enough to withstand the extreme

Kokopelli... could anyone please offer some good study material on this funkalicious musician?

Kokopelli is known as a fertility god, healer and story teller.Kokopelli dates back over 3,000 years. His true origin is unknown. Carvings of this hunch-backed flute-playing figure are found throughout the Southwest.\nIt is said that the hunch on his back depicted the sacks of seeds and songs he carried. The flute playing also symbolized the change of winter to spring.  Folklore has it that everyone in villages would sing and dance all night when they heard Kokopelli play his flute. The next morning, every female would be pregnant.\nKokopelli is the source of music making and dancing, and spreading joy .


How do you get him to understand a divorce?

So, he doesn't agree...big surprise, right?  No way to get your message across, then you'll have to send the message by actions, not words.  While you've been talking and he's not listening, that's all it is...lip service.  What have you done to show him that this marriage was a mistake?  Nothing.  If you are going to end it, then end it.  Move out and leave a note.  Explain that you made a mistake by rushing into this marriage and upon this realization, you need to go.  File the papers and in 3 months or so, you'll be free to live as an independant woman again.  Until then, just lay low and don't listen to his crying and persuations.  Just cut the cord and make it short and sweet.  It'll be easier and less painless in over the long run.

I need to know the law in Illinois regarding preforming marriages?

The state marriage law\nhttp://www.ilga.gov/legislation/ilcs/ilcs4.asp?DocName=075000050HPt%2E+II&ActID=2086&ChapAct=750%26nbsp%3BILCS%26nbsp%3B5%2F&ChapterID=59&ChapterName=FAMILIES&SectionID=63066&SeqStart=2700&SeqEnd=5600&ActName=Illinois+Marriage+and+Dissolution+of+Marriage+Act%2E\n\n    (750 ILCS 5/209) (from Ch. 40, par. 209) \n    Sec. 209. Solemnization and Registration.) \n    (a) A marriage may be solemnized by a judge of a court of record, by a retired judge of a court of record, unless the retired judge was removed from office by the Judicial Inquiry Board, except that a retired judge shall not receive any compensation from the State, a county or any unit of local government in return for the solemnization of a marriage and there shall be no effect upon any pension benefits conferred by the Judges Retirement System of Illinois, by a judge of the Court of Claims, by a county clerk in counties having 2,000,000 or more inhabitants, by a public official whose powers include solemnization of marriages, or in accordance with the prescriptions of any religious denomination, Indian Nation or Tribe or Native Group, provided that when such prescriptions require an officiant, the officiant be in good standing with his religious denomination, Indian Nation or Tribe or Native Group. Either the person solemnizing the marriage, or, if no individual acting alone solemnized the marriage, both parties to the marriage, shall complete the marriage certificate form and forward it to the county clerk within 10 days after such marriage is solemnized. \n    (b) The solemnization of the marriage is not invalidated by the fact that the person solemnizing the marriage was not legally qualified to solemnize it, if either party to the marriage believed him to be so qualified. \n(Source: P.A. 87‑1261.)


iam not able save my money.  let me know ...read please?

Saving money is hard to do, but it can be done. Make you a budget with all your monthly expenses on it and than add a small amount for something extra that might come up that week or month which ever budget you are going to go by. After you have made it stick to it. It really is something you have to make up your mind to. Say you make a 500.00 weekly and your bills that week come to 398.00, what you would want to do after all the total is paid out is put at least 50.00 of that into saving or some other savings and don't touch it. Good luck...K

Can a person snorkel and not be a good swimmer, maybe wear a life jacket?

Sure.  A vest works just fine.  All you have to do, minimum, is float face down on the water and kick with fins on.  It's an odd sensation to breathe through the snorkel, though, and if you're uncomfortable in the water it can be a little scary.  \n\nLots of folk like to dive down to look more closely, but not necessary to enjoy it.  But yes, if you're not a good swimmer, definitely wear a vest.

what happend in Nebraska about the schools..?

in Omaha there is a movement to seperate the schools back along racial/ethnic lines under the theory that students will learn better amongst people more like them i guess. I dont really think this is a good idea because as history has shown us, seperate but equal really does not hold much water as a idea. It is ulitmately up to you if you feel the segregation is a healthy practice, however the action is very controversial constitutionally because it is in seemingly fairly obvious violation of the brown v board of education of topeka case.

In order to become a licensed professional land surveyor in Montana, you need to file an application with the Montana Board of Professional Engineers and Professional Land Surveyors. You can get further information from their website. In the application you will need to describe your experience in land surveying. The Board will review your application and inform you of whether or not you are qualified to take the examinations that you will be required to pass in order to be licensed. If you have no experience in land surveying, you will need to spend a number of years working for a licensed professional land surveyor in order to become qualified.


How should i train over th esummer. If i want to run a 16;30 5k race?

You might be better off varying your distances. One well known book on distance running suggests that you break down your workout week like this:\nday 1 15%\nday 2 10%\nday 3 20%\nday 4 5%\nday 5 15%\nday 6 30%\nday 7 5%\n\nBased on roughly 60 miles a week that you plan to run, that would give you runs of 9, 6, 12, 3, 9, 18, and 3. \n\nI would make one of the 9 mile days a track workout with a couple of miles of warm-up, a couple of miles of warm-down and hard interval work in between -- repeat, 400s, 800s, 1000s or miles.\n\nI think that 1 good workout per day is better than 2 half-effort ones. If you want to run a second workout, I would only do an extended warm-up and stretch to get the kinks out from the night before.\n\nTo run 16:30, you have to average 5:18. You probably need to get your mile time down under 5:00, in order to able to run 5:18s for 3+ miles.

what are some of the best ways to keep a relationship from breaking up.?

First of all, you must learn to compromise.\nWhen you argue, and you will argue, try to see things from your partner's point of view. Try not to be completely stubborn and unbending. Sometimes you both have to give up a little for the sake of your relationship. \n\nHonesty is also very important. With honesty, comes another crucial ingredient for a healthy relationship: communication. You have to learn to communicate. Talk through your problems and always be honest. If something she does upsets you, tell her. And if she has things she needs to discuss with you, listen to her. But, at the same time, don't forget to talk about the good things too. \nWhich brings me to my last point.\n\nNever take her for granted. Appreciate her. Always remind her that you love her. I don't think anyone ever gets tired of hearing that. Show her that she means everything to you and that you would do anything for her. Always respect her and stay loyal to her.\n\nUnfortunately, sometimes even when you follow all of these guidelines, things just don't work out. You have to remember that there really is no surefire way of holding on to a relationship. If there was, then no one would ever break up. Sometimes, things just aren't meant to be and we just have to learn to accept it. Believe me when i say that i know it can be very difficult. but we have all experienced heartache and we survive. Life goes on and we eventually meet new people.\nyou just have to hang in there and keep trying!


if you had a chance to sit with the president of your country  what would you tell him?

Mr. President, since we as Americans have spent so much time in Iraq already, do you think that a small portion of all the money that is used to finance this war could be used to house the homeless and feed the hungry children and families that are in exceptionally dire need of sustenance due to either job loss or just falling on very hard times here in the United States? I'm no expert sir, but I would probably assume that just about a month's diversion of war funds would be a real good start sir. What do you think?

this is NOT one of the subsidies the ferdal government gives to business...?

You should take as much offense at yourself: In things like this there are many with very bad spelling, grammar, and incredibly poor communications skills. If you want to make yourself understood, then learn the proper use of English and the basics of spelling.  If you are too lazy to do that and think that it is fine to use abbreviated pidgin English then you are sadly mistaken.  If you do not like this assessment, too bad. Try getting a job or a promotion using language like that and you will get nowhere.  It makes you look ignorant and uneducated.  Your reaction is one of a spoiled brat.  Good luck, you are going to need all the help you can get.

Probably a Brompton at your price limit, but if you can stretch to it, try a Birdy. The Brompton (UK) is a great all-round commuter bike, fully developed, packs up small (and quickly) and its a good ride over short distances. For more riding fun (and performance at speed) the Birdy range (German) is better.

Go to the Bldg & Planning (and Zoning) Dept. in your jursidication and find out the produres and fees involved in subdividing a piece of property.

Do your research first.

First of all we have to define terrorism precisely and accordingly define who are the terrorists, then and only then we can know how to ban and devastate terrorists and terrorism; because I believe that those who are now considered as terrorists were and still are made by superpower countries due to the injustice policies of these countries, take an example; Saddam was considered as terrorist, tyrant, dictator, and all other similar bad things, but who let him to be what he became?, USA governments supported him for years and provided him with chemical weapons, and technical and intelligential information against his opposers, it is well known now that Donald Ramsfeild, himself was one of such links between USA administrations and Saddam regime , therefore if we have to consider Saddam as a terrorist and to punish him accordingly; then all those who supported and cooperated with him should be considered as more dangerous terrorists than him and they must be punished as well. \nFinally, I would like to say that since those who are in power keep believing that "Power is always Right" and not that the "Right should be above the Power", we have to keep expecting more and more of terrorism and terrorists.

will mexico make it to the semi-finals?? if Mex. gets 1st in Grp D and brazil gets 1st in Grp F they will meet

Mexico will get to the next round. But Mexico won't be playing Brazil. First of all, if Mexico gets 1st, they will play the 2nd placed team in the other group. 1st place doesn't play first place until later. Mexico will probably get 2nd (cuz they arent better than Portugal) and have to play Netherlands or Argentina. That will be the end of the line for them.


I just learnt that many Christians believe that animals do not have a soul. Why is this?

Is dating a guy 12 years age difference too much ?

It really depends on how old you are. If you are say, 22, and he is older than you are then, no, I don't think that the age difference is that big of a deal. If he is the younger one you should be at least 32 for the age differencet to be okay. One question, do his and your parents know the age difference? Are they okay with it? If not, find their reasons behind thinking that way. But, if the reasons are unreasonable based then don't worry about it. Overall, as long as you aren't illegal, I'd say that it is alright.


Yankee Stadium or Red Sox Stadium? which is better?

Fenway Park and it's not even close. There is nothing that distinguishes Yankee Stadium from any other park out there. It's a cookie cutter stadium with no charm and no personality. It's in the middle of a shithole section of the city and there are some truly terrible seats in that place. I've climbed Mt Washington before, but I still don't think I was ever as elevated as the day I was in the upper deck at Yankee Stadium. \n\nOn the other hand, Fenway has one of the most unique fields in the majors. Everything from the green monster to the right field pavilion seats to the foul terrortory make the place stand out. The Red Sox own most of the surrounding neighborhood so they typically keep it clean and make sure that there's plenty to do. \n\nThe fans for both teams are considered to be the best and most knowledgable in the game...but mostly they're both just really annoying. They'll be really into the game at either place, but that doesn't make them any smarter. \n\nIf you really have to just pick one, go with Fenway and you won't regrett it. But the two are only five hours apart. You could always spend part of your trip in Boston, take the drive down to New York, and spend the rest of it there.

what is the best position for a girl to be in if she wants it in the butt?

If this is her first time, you are not ready to worry about the position quite yet! First, you need to know what to do BEFORE you get her into position!\n An@l can be very rewarding for both parties involved, but do it wrong once and she will be turned off from it for life!!\n Ok, first, loosen her up mentally. She needs to be relaxed. If she drinks, then get her tipsy. \n Next, loosen her up physically. I recommend going down on her, and then sliding a finger in the backdoor. CLIP AND SMOOTH YOUR NAILS FIRST!! Continue to please her as you slowly work first one, then two fingers in and out to loosen her up and relax her.\n Now you are ready to move forward into the penetration part. Remember THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS TO MUCH LUBE!!\n If she is on her back at this time, that is an ideal position for first time an@l. get her legs on your shoulders and kneel in front of her. Position the head of your penis at her rear entry. Tell her to exhale as you SLOWLY enter her with just the head. Now you are going to want to shove it in, but if you ever want to do this again then resist that urge! Hold your penis still, with just the head in, and manually stimulate her clit or her vagina. After a minute begin to apply GENTLE pressure, working yourself in 1/2 at a time. \n If she says it hurts, don't immediately pull out. Instead, freeze, and let her adjust. \n Good luck!!


why does my 24 year old boyfriend keep wetting the bed? serious?

does he drink a lot? its a common thing with 24 year old drinkers that they go out, have a few jars and piss the bed, or worse, if the problem persists without the influence of alcohol see a doctor or a psychologist in the meantime tell him to stopp getting wasted amd make him sleep in a rubber sheet, or tell hime not to drink before bed.\n\none drastic way of stopping him is to wire a car battery to the sheets, when the urine meets the current he will wake up due to the electricity in his penis, simple effecrtive and by golly it'll stop him wetting the bed in future, dont forget to earth yourself though

Check with the Division of Motor Vehicles (DMV) in your town or city where you received a permit. Different States have different laws.

How many of you are just asking and answering questions to get tickets to the world cup?

With the amount of questions asked each day, I would say the odds are not that good to win. They are only giving away one trip a week with the grand prize trip at the end of the contest (14 total). Most likely most posters do not even realize they are automatically being entered for a trip they most likely don't even want, or cannot go to because they do not have a passport. The FIFA World Cup is coming right up, and it takes time to get a passport. I think any time a sponsor is giving away a prize, and you are entered without your knowing it by performing an every day function, they should give away a more universal prize...like cash.


HBCUs generally try to avoid rankings among themselves, so it's difficult to find such information.\n\nHowever, BlackEnterprise/DayStar just completed a study in which they ranked what they term "The Top 50 Colleges and Universities for African-Americans."

how can i remove wall paper that is more than 20 years old?

I just recently moved into a house that is the "elderly" wall paper universe... I feel your pain.  Providing that it is actual wall PAPER rather than vinyl (vinyl just peels off no matter how old it is), I found the easiest thing to do was to take a good quality paper towel, wet the heck out of it, and stick it to the wall for 5-10 minutes.  Come back, grab an edge of the paper, and peel away.  Alot of people are fans of using a scorer, but that just makes a ton of little pieces, instead of ripping a good size amount at a time.  There are lots of chemicals they sell to peel wall paper, but I found the cost effective road was the best for me.  Good luck, and please let me know if you find anything better.

They don't perform good works so much as shun sin as best they can, but out of respect and love for Jehovah and to cultivate and nourish their relationship with Him.  JW's foremost concern is the salvation of the human race by coming to know Jehovah.  They place great emphasis on the following verse, "This means everlasting life, their taking in knowledge of you, the only true God, and the one whom you sent forth, Jesus Christ."


how do you write a really age appropriate english to spanish children's book on growing up?

If our experiences, as humans, are pretty much universal, then I would think a direct translation from English would work for you.  Age for being age appropriate, that would be determined by your target group.\n\n(sorry for the earlier  remark.)


Why is the inlet and discharge valve of GT gas compressor closed at the point of start-up?

Gas turbines have enormous power and speed,if you start your compressor with an open valves there will be no drag to the gas turbine, therefore the possibility of a "runaway" or overspeed will occur, destroying everything inside your compressor,closing the valves create a resistance to the driver through your pistons or screw (whatever type of compressor you are using,)keeping you from having a "runaway" or overspeed.

how to stop reoccuring gout (gouty arthritis) attacks?  does diet and weather affect the severity of attacks?

I found a diet of no alcohol, sugar and carbohydrates will lower the PH of the body helping reduce gout. Eat lots of vegetables, especially green leafy ones, and protein, Tofu, meat, eggs, milk. No rice bread or grains untill you've been on the low carb diet for 30 days, and then only add 2 cups of whole grains a day. I guarantee you will feel better and see the difference. And don't forget the water, 2 quarts a day, pure and fresh. No soda or juice, too much sugar. Don't drink anything but water, no tea or coffee either. The cafien in the tea and coffee dehydrate the body and the uric acid levels rise when the body is dehydrated. feel better soon.


Why do people keep changing the rules to the bible?

Burning witches to death is definiately sinful, always was.  This was done as an extremist act, not the written word of the Bible.  Slavery is not forbidden in the Bible, however, maltreatment of slaves was condemned in the Bible.  But, Slavery is a social issue, not a spiritual issue, so the decision is up to the government.

explaine some functions of an introduction?

Since your question is not very clear. I assume you are asking this in realtion to an English course.\nIn a report an introduction has five functions they are:\n- defining important terms used in the report\n- contextualising the assignment \n- outlines how the report will proceed \n- stating the focus of the report \n- indicating the significance of the findings \nIn an introduction you lay out a plan for what will follow. Taken in that context introductions have two equally important functions -\n- to inform the audience of the subject of discourse and your thesis \n- to create interest in your subject of discourse (making the audience interested inwhat you have to say).\nI hope this is the solution you are looking for. If not, please be a bit more specific with your question.

How do you deal with a guy online that haven't met yet but on yahoo personal? What should I do?

There are strange, dangerous people everywhere..   it's not any worse online.  If you want to find someone, you have to be willing to step out of your comfort shell and give them a chance.  Certainly a public place for the first meet, talking on the phone for a while before hand is a help to see if there's any chemistry worthy of a meet.\n\nIt takes a lot of courage for a guy to show interest enough to send even an email ..  and you ought to be extremely flattered someone found something they like in you.  Whether or not you're willing to trust is up to you , but most guys are just normal, ordinary and want the same as you - to find some to love and be loved.

How do you get the computer screen to show a picture then show one of those scary pictures of...?

Normally those things are just an animated GIF (which is a type of picture).\n\nFirst, you would have to find two pictures (one scary, and one not).  Then you would need to use a GIF animation tool to take those 2 pictures and create 1 animated GIF.\n\nShould be fairly straight forward.  \n\nI would do a search at download.com for "gif animation" to find a program that can do it.  Look for one that is freeware.


If there is a true medical issue here then you might have a claim against the supermarket for medical expenses and lost time and possible minor punitive damages.  However, please don't try and bilk the market for more McDonald's "hot coffee spill" millions.  Frivolous lawsuits are a plague on society as you are the only beneficiary.  It financially impacts the market, their employees via insurance costs, customers because prices must be adjusted to accommodate their lower financial position.\n\nSo all in all, get what you need from them in order to get to a point where you feel healthy again.  Your health is not frivolous and I'm not implying this, however, please don't let past cases of "negligence" sway you to carry out a suit that will affect many more people whom were not at fault.

will humanity be eclipsed by his own technology?

Actually a man named Ray Kurzweil (something of a big name in these circles) has been writing about this very topic for the past twenty years. Kurzweil is a researcher, inventor, and developer of computer electronics as well as the recipient of a couple presidential awards. Furthermore he is a published author of numerous books and articles regarding technology and human interactions with technology. \n\nOne of the things that he points out is that computers are becoming more and more sophisticated and capable of carrying out more and more computations at faster and faster rates with the passing of each year. That’s not to say that your machine is doing this, but that we’re creating computers that are faster and able to hold more information constantly. As a result we’re rapidly approaching a time when computers are going to be as capable of processing information as the human brain. According to some of his predictions we should be first seeing these advanced machines within the next ten to fifteen years. And with market demands in the US being what they are, the price on these machines will have a tendency to steadily decrease as the technology for making these computers becomes cheaper and more readily available. As a result we as a public may end up owning one of these smarter computers within the next twenty years. \n\nThere are two additional points that he makes though: It will also be likely that research into increasing computer speeds as well as processing, memory storage and retrieval probably wont stop at the point of having a computer that’s as ‘intelligent’ as the human mind. Also, with the aforementioned decline in prices in creating these smarter computers and technology making the production of these machines easier, we may find these computers cropping up in smaller and smaller packages and in more and more things. As a result, we could possibly find ourselves surrounded with this technology quite easily. \n\nI’m not trying to paint a Matrix looking future, but it is possible that we may find ourselves outnumbered by our machines, so we had better have a good idea of what we’re doing when we create them.


How come, if Adam and Eve only had two sons, the world is so populated?

One might think that after the murder of Abel, only his guilty brother Cain and their parents, Adam and Eve, were left on the earth. However, Adam and Eve had a large family. According to Genesis 5:3, 4, Adam had a son named Seth. The account adds: “The days of Adam after his fathering Seth came to be eight hundred years. Meanwhile he became father to sons and daughters.” So Cain married his sister or perhaps one of his nieces. Since mankind was then so close to human perfection, such a marriage evidently did not pose the health risks that may imperil the offspring of such a union today.\n\nAdam was cast out of Eden into an unsubdued earth that was cursed to produce thorns and thistles, there to sweat out an existence, harvesting the bitter fruits of his sin. Outside the garden, awaiting death, Adam fathered sons and daughters, the names of only three being preserved—Cain, Abel, and Seth. To all of his children Adam passed on hereditary sin and death, since he himself was sinful.—Ge 3:23; 4:1, 2, 25.\n\nConsider, for example, the often-raised problem about Cain’s wife. At Genesis 4:1, 2 we read: “In time [Eve] gave birth to Cain and said: ‘I have produced a man with the aid of Jehovah.’ Later she again gave birth, to his brother Abel.” As is well known, Cain killed Abel; but after that, we read that Cain had a wife and children. (Genesis 4:17) If Adam and Eve had only two sons, where did Cain find his wife?\n\nThe solution lies in the fact that Adam and Eve had more than two children. According to the context, they had a large family. At Genesis 5:3 we read that Adam became father to another son named Seth and then, in the following verse, we read: “He became father to sons and daughters.” (Genesis 5:4) So Cain could have married one of his sisters or even one of his nieces. At that early stage of human history, when mankind was so close to perfection, such a marriage evidently did not pose the risks for the children of the union that it would today.\n\n\nSeth may not have been the third child of Adam and Eve. According to Genesis 5:4, Adam had “sons and daughters,” some of whom may have been born before Seth. Seth is worthy of note because Noah, and through him the present-day race of mankind, descended from him, not from the murderous Cain. At the age of 105 years Seth became father to Enosh. Seth died at the age of 912 years.

Has anyone looked into the science of making sauerkraut (fermentation, biology, microbiology)?

I had to make sauerkraut in first year university microbiology, and a quick Google search reveals that this is a fairly standard exercise. You should be able to find tons of info, a couple of links are below.\n\nYou don't add anything to the cabbage, you rely on the microorganisms already on the leaves (i.e., it's a wild culture, you don't add 'starter'.) Usually there's an initial growth of a coliform, but as acid levels in the mix rise, it selects for acid-tolerant bacteria including Leucostoc and Lactobacillus (also responsible for yogurt.) The important thing is to keep air out, as oxygen will allow the growth of other aerobic microorganisms including mold.


I can't believe there is a curling category and not bowling!!! What is up with that?!?!?\n\nAnyway, help on your spares....This would be good for you too scrappy. Of course you want strikes, always. There is no secret for leaving easy spares. You leave what you leave. You work on spare shots. If you know people in high places (or work in the bowling alley ;-D) you can set up spares yourself.\n\nIf not, here's what you do. Corner pins are the hardest single pin conversion. More specifically, the ten pin for righties, the seven for lefties. Instead of throwing your ball at the pocket on your first ball, practicing shooting the ten pin. Never mind that it's a full rack...just shoot the ten. On you second ball, you can either choose to shoot the pocket for a conversion, or practice on the seven pin.\n\nRemember, just because you have a full rack standing, doesn't mean you have to knock them all down! Another good idea is forget keeping score. It only plays with your mind. Just get out there and through some good shots. \n\nIf you have problems converting the ten pin, here's my suggestion. You need to learn to be able to read oil patterns in lanes. This takes years...be patient. But you need to be comfortable in looking everywhere on the lane. When reading oil patterns on a first ball, I always start my shot on the 10 board at the arrows and adjust from there. \n\nFor spares, I do something a little different. When I shoot anything on the left side, I look about three boards to the right of the pin on the curtain on the machine. I know my ball is going to break and pick up that single.\n\nFor anything on the right side, particularly the ten, I look at about 2 inches in front of the pin and focus in on the shadow of the pin....and I throw that ball as hard and as fast and as straight as I can. \n\nI hope this helps you a little bit. If there's anything else you'd like advice on, feel free to email me. gojenni714@yahoo.com

Can someone please explain to me how to negotiate with a salesperson on a big ticket item?

Others have given you really good tips on negotiating with a salesperson, so I will just throw in some basics on negotiating in general.\n\nFirst off, know exactly what you are willing to pay, and don't quit until you get what you want for that price. A good salesman (and I should know, as I am married to one) knows the art of the sale, which involves a lot of psychology. Don't let the mind games throw you off.\n\nKnow what a reasonable price is for the item you want. There is a price that absolutely no one is going to go below, a price that is really ridiculous. Don't go there because you are just going to be disappointed. Do your homework and find out as much as you can about the item you want to buy, and find out what that reasonable basement price is. That's your goal.\n\nBe willing to walk away, and I don't mean just out to the parking lot, but away for good. If they aren't willing to negotiate with you, find someone else who is. You have cash, and someone is going to be willing to do business with you, on your terms.\n\nNever ever mention the price you are willing to pay. Offer a sum considerably lower than what you are willing to pay. That way there is plenty of wiggle room for you to go back and forth with offers and counter offers. If you start out offering 65-70% of what you are willing to pay, that leaves you room for two really good counter offers before you settle on a price. \n\nDon't get emotionally involved. I don't know the exact percentage, but I do know that more than half of sales where the buyer feels they paid to much take place because the prospective buyer let their emotions get in the way. Don't fall in love with the vision of yourself in that little red convertible, because it will undo all your work. \n\nThis last pointer is terrible, but it's a fact of life. If you are woman, consider taking a man with you. Many salespeople think that a woman can be walked on, but will tread more carefully if there's a man on hand. A strong-willed man is the best bet. Take your dad, brother, or boyfriend with you, and discuss your strategy ahead of time. Let him be the strong one, even if that feels like you are giving up control of the situation--just make sure he knows exactly what you want him to do.\n\nBest of luck :)

Dry air can cause nosebleeds. The air pulls the moisture out of the mucous membranes in your nostrils causing them to crack (It makes the walls of the veins thinner which contributes to the cracking effect.) and thus bleed.  Winter is the worse time for this...My husband has already had three this year. I use just a small amount of Carmex on a Q-Tip to moisturize his nose. I also put a small kettle of water on the stove on low to "rehydrate" the air versus expensive humidifiers. Just make sure you don't leave it on at night or that the kettle runs dry...\n\nStress can also cause nosebleeds. Elevated blood preasure can cause the vessels to burst. Also, when people are chronically stressed they don't eat well or hydrate properly which can cause chronic nosebleeds. Try taking a multivitamin, getting enough liquids, and adequate rest and relaxation. Combined with the "dry air" treatment I described above you shouldn't have a problem.\n\nIf the problem persists for more than a few months, happens more than three times a week, happens even after above treatments, is painful, or bleeds excessively and won't quite call your doctor as this may be a sign of something serious. I had an uncle who had a tumor in his sinus' that caused nosebleeds. If you are concerned you should have it checked out.


what happened in the us on my sons birthday november 12 2005?

we were having a huge birthday party for my husband...he turned 38 that very same day :)\n\nbut the world had bigger events, like your son's birth :)\n\nToday In History - November 12, 2005\nSave It  E-mail It  Print It \n(AP) Today is Saturday, Nov. 12, the 316th day of 2005. There are 49 days left in the year. \n\nToday’s Highlight in History: \n\nOn Nov. 12, 1942, the World War II naval Battle of Guadalcanal began. (The Americans ended up winning a major victory over the Japanese.) \n\nOn this date: \n\nIn 1815, American suffragist Elizabeth Cady Stanton was born in Johnstown, N.Y. \n\nIn 1920, baseball got its first “czar” as Judge Kenesaw Mountain Landis was elected commissioner of the American and National Leagues. \n\nIn 1927, Josef Stalin became the undisputed ruler of the Soviet Union as Leon Trotsky was expelled from the Communist Party. \n\nIn 1929, Grace Kelly—the future movie star and Princess of Monaco—was born in Philadelphia. \n\nIn 1948, former Japanese premier Hideki Tojo and several other World War II Japanese leaders were sentenced to death by a war crimes tribunal. \n\nIn 1977, the city of New Orleans elected its first black mayor, Ernest “Dutch” Morial. \n\nIn 1982, Yuri V. Andropov was elected to succeed the late Leonid \nI. Brezhnev as general secretary of the Soviet Communist Party’s Central Committee. \n\n\nIn 1985, Xavier Suarez was elected Miami’s first Cuban-American mayor. \n\nIn 1990, Japanese Emperor Akihito formally assumed the Chrysanthemum Throne. \n\nIn 2001, an American Airlines Airbus A300-600, en route to the Dominican Republic, crashed 103 seconds after takeoff from New York’s Kennedy International Airport, killing 265 people. \n\nTen years ago: Israel’s ruling Labor Party unanimously approved Shimon Peres as its new leader, replacing slain Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin. The space shuttle Atlantis blasted off on a mission to dock with the Russian space station Mir. \n\nFive years ago: On the eve of a federal court hearing on the Florida presidential election, advocates for George W. Bush and Al Gore previewed their legal strategies, with Democrats justifying painstaking recounts and Republicans saying the practice could result in political “mischief” and human error. Leah Rabin, an outspoken campaigner for Mideast peace following the 1995 assassination of her husband, former Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin, died at age 72. \n\nOne year ago: A jury in Redwood City, Calif., convicted Scott Peterson of murdering his pregnant wife, Laci, and dumping her body in San Francisco Bay. (Peterson, who maintains his innocence, was later sentenced to death.) Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat was buried at his headquarters in the West Bank city of Ramallah, a day after his death in a French military hospital. \n\nToday’s Birthdays: Rhythm-and-blues singer Ruby Nash Curtis (Ruby and the Romantics) is 66. Actor-playwright Wallace Shawn is 62. Singer Brian Hyland is 62. Rhythm-and-blues singer Jimmy Hayes (Persuasions) is 62. Rock musician Booker T. Jones (Booker T. & the MGs) is 61. Singer-songwriter Neil Young is 60. Rock musician Donald “Buck Dharma” Roeser (Blue Oyster Cult) is 58. Country singer Barbara Fairchild is 55. Actress Megan Mullally is 47.

Should I stay with my boyfriend or with the 30-year-old guy?

You need to follow your heart, first and foremost.  From what you are saying, it sounds to me like you and your boyfriend are already done, but you just dont have the guts to end it.  The sooner you do end it the better it will be.  Dont keep putting yourself and him through the pain, just tell him that it is not working for you anymore.  You deserve to be happy and it sounds like you will be with the 30 yr old so I say go for it!

Why Do People Swear We Are Overpopulated?

people operate by the notion that wealth is somehow limited and think that if you have more people then their share of wealth will get smaller.\n\nthis of course couldn't be further away from the truth, anybody who takes the time to think realizes that wealth is being created by people, it can be infinite... \n\nUnfortunately this thought is too complex for many people to comprehend !\n\nI'm only hoping that in a few hundred years people will finally come to this realization!


How does the local anaesthesia (at the dentist) affects me if i'm 5 month pregnant?

As long as you are in your second trimester you will be fine.  We routinely give local ansth. to pregnant women if they have a dental condition that can't wait until the babies birth.  It is worse for the baby to have decay and infection going on in the mouth if it is severe, then it is to have this fixed using local anesth.  Novocain is not used anymore due to it being in the ester class of dental anesth. and many people were/are allergic to it.  We now use mostly amides, lidocaine, and a few others.  Most people are not allergic to the amide class as they were to the esters.  All the chemical jumbo aside, again you should be fine.  Just make sure you ask you ob/gyn before you have any dental work done.


He/She did deserved that from you though in the end you regretted?

Well, if I understand what you're trying to ask...I let this guy, who I could care less about, fall for me, then I let him down...harshly.  I didn't regret it until someone did the same to me.  I'll never play with anyone's emotions like that again. It's not cool.

1. A- mosses- basic, no vascular tissue, reproduction requiires water\nB- Ferns- vascular tissue present\nC- gymnosperms- seeds\nD- angiosperms- flowers and fruits\n\n2. Monocots have one cotyledon, dicots have 2\n\n3. cotyledons are the first leaves that sprout out of the seed, they contain nutrients for hte seed\n\n4. male- stamen, female- pistil\nSeed- sporophyte, fruit- ovary\n\n5. Photosynthesis is the making sugar/energy from CO2 and light\nTakes place in the stem and leaves (wherever green).  or more specifically, in the chloroplasts, in the stroma and thylakoid membrane\n\n6. Vascular tissue are a transport system, carrying water, minerals and sugar up to all parts of the tree\nAdvantages- grow bigger, compare mosses and trees\n\n7. tropism is the plants tendency to grow\nPhototropism- grow towards light.  light slows down cell elongation in stem that it hits, opposite side grows faster\nGravitropism- roots grow downward.  heavy molecules sink, thus coordinating top cells to elongate
