Please provide me with the full address of the Hudson Bay Company of Canada?

Hudson's Bay Company \n401 Bay St., Ste. 500\nToronto, Ontario M5H 2Y4, Canada\nPhone: 416-861-6112\nFax: 416-861-4720\n\nhttp://www.hbc.com  \n\nHudson's Bay Company (HBC) is Canada's largest department store chain. Founded in 1670 as a fur trading enterprise, HBC is also Canada's oldest corporation. The company's Zellers chain is Canada's #2 discount department store (behind Wal-Mart Canada), with nearly 300 stores. HBC also runs nearly 100 The Bay department stores, more than 100 smaller Fields general merchandise and apparel stores in western Canada, 45 Home Outfitters superstores, and Hbc.com, an e-commerce site. HBC was acquired in 2006 by Maple Leaf Heritage Investments of the US for about $957 million.\n\nLed by the South Carolina billionaire investor Jerry Zucker, Maple Leaf has acquired 63% of the department store chain's shares, adding to the 19% stake of HBC's shares it already held. (Zucker has extended his offer for the retailer's remaining shares, at which time the stock will be delisted.) HBC's board rejected Zucker's original offer, tendered in October 2005, as inadequate but did not rule out the possibility of a takeover at a loftier price. In January 2006 Zucker sweetened his bid for HBC to $13.25 per share from $12.85.\n\nFollowing the acquisition, George Heller retired as president and CEO of the company and was succeeded as CEO by Zucker and Michael Rousseau (formerly the CFO of the company) as president. Zucker also became chairman of the new board of directors.\n\nHBC, along with other Canadian retailers, has been hurt by competition from US newcomers, including Wal-Mart Canada and Costco Wholesale Canada.\n\nMass merchandiser Zellers, which accounts for about 60% of company sales, is facing increasing pressure from discounters and specialty stores, such as Best Buy. Wal-Mart Canada operates nearly 250 discount stores throughout Canada, as well as six SAM'S CLUB outlets in Ontario. As a countermeasure, HBC has been renovating and enlarging its Zellers stores and enlisting hot designers, including Mossimo, to promote the image of an upscale discounter (à la Target), along with introducing smaller Zellers Select stores in smaller markets and emphasizing private labels in all of its stores. The company has signed a deal with Salton, whereby Westinghouse-branded products and a new line of home appliances are available across HBC's retail banners. Hilary Duff's line of merchandise ("Stuff by Duff"), which features fashion apparel and accessories as well as home accessories and cosmetics, made its debut in Zellers stores in spring 2004.\n\nThe company is considering selling its credit card portfolio with C$1.2 billion in receivables, representing 3.1 million active accounts. Earlier this year rival Sears Canada sold its credit card business for a hefty premium. Also, to cut costs, HBC has announced that it is laying off about 825 management and administrative staff.\n\nHBC's the Bay traditional department stores focus on more-upscale fashion merchandise and home furnishings, and its Home Outfitters superstores (launched in 1999) emphasize bedding and linens. Fast-growing Home Outfitters opened eight locations in 2003 and four more stores in 2004.\n\nHBC's retail reach stretches from Newfoundland to British Columbia.

Why isn't the government rounding up the illegal aliens that are protesting?

I'd love to see that; armored police piling into the protestors with nets and tasers, riots, violence, burning cities, the dead strewn everywhere.  Give the rest of the world another chance to sneer at us.

Can you sentence a person who lives in a mobile home to house arrest?

Usually a "house arrest" sentence is a stable place with a ankle tracking device that alerts authorities to a person's location. A person would be required to stay in a specific location during their sentence. Most likely, they would allowed to only go to work, doctors appointments or grocery shopping on a very fixed schedule. \n\nBy your definition, no, they could not move their house around so long as they were nearby.

Why do pitchers often bat with the opposite hand that they pitch?

If you are batting right-handed, and you see a pitch coming inside at you, your natural tendency is to avoid getting hit by bending and turning away toward your left.  This exposes your right shoulder and arm toward the pitch.  Also right handed batters have their right hand closer to the part of the bat that does the hitting so it's more likely to be struck by a jam pitch.


I am not sure.\nAre you itching in one area of your body or all over?\nDid you eat something , then the itching started. \nDid you walk by a certain plant , then you started to itch?\nDid you use a certain perfume or cologne,then you started to itch?\nDid you put some lotion on your skin , then you started to itch?\nDo you have dry skin? \nAll except for dry skin, would be allergic reaction to something that that you put on, inhale, or eat. \ntry and remember.\nIf this is the case some Benadryl would help.\nCall your Doctor and let him know and also let him know if you have taken anything for it. Might need to do Allergy test to see which of these you are allergic to , if it is indeed allergic reaction.\nHope I was able to help.


What qualifications do I need to become a university lecturer?

The normal faculty rankings in the US are:\nprofessor (tenured)\nassociate professor (tenured)\nassistant professor (tenure-track)\ninstructor\nlecturer\n\nMost lecturers are nearly finished with their Ph.D.s, or are what is called "ABD" (all but dissertation).  Sometimes, however, lecturers already have their Ph.D.s, and have just not found a tenure-track job yet.   Others are Ph.D.s who are working as adjuncts, and choose, often for personal or geographical reasons, not to look for a tenure-track job. \nStill others just have Master's degrees. \n\n(It depends on the field, but some disciplines hire folks with just a Master's degree to fill short-term, underpaid lecturer positions.  The market is glutted with ABDs and new Ph.D.s right now, however, so most lecturer positions go to folks who are at least ABD.)\n\nThere is some variation, however, according to field of specialization.  For example, faculty members in the visual and performing arts often do not have Ph.D.s, but have M.F.A.s (Master of Fine Arts).  This is because in the arts, Master's degrees are often considered the terminal degree.  (Ph.D.s involve research, and the in many instances, the arts focus on performance.)\n\nSo, how do you become a lecturer?  When you are close to finishing your Ph.D., apply for a lecturer position.\n\nI hope this helped.

would you consider an Uncle and a Niece to be called a domestic relationship or a social relationship...?

What are you asking...something for wedding invitations?!\n\nOn the face of it: \n\n(1) I wouldn't call an uncle and niece to be called a domestic relationship;\n\n(2) I wouldn't call an uncle and niece to be called a social relationship;\n\n(3) none of the above.\n\nI would call a situation, in which--say--2 spinsters have been living together for years, a civil union\n\nI'm inferring "domestic" in your sense means they are living together, having no children together


Syracuse, definitely.  (and I went to U Mass for grad school, in Chemistry.)


how do i make a short formula that shows this kind of growth... 1+(1+1)+(2+1)+(3+1) and so on.?

The first term can be thought of as (0 + 1).  Then you get that ith term (assuming you're starting from i = 1) is:\n\n((i - 1) + 1) = i\n\nso you're really looking at the sum of the numbers from 1 to n.  For a general formula of this, it helps to note an observation made by the legendary mathematician Carl Friedrich Gauss in elementary school (or so the story goes) when a teacher of his wanted to keep the students busy.  The teacher told the students to find the sum of the first 100 numbers.  Gauss noted the following:\n\n1 + 2 + 3 + .... + 98 + 99 + 100\n\nIf we sum the first number with the last (1 + 100), we get 101, the second with the second last (2 + 99), we get 101, the third with the third last (3 + 98), we get 101.  More generally, we can use this trick to find the sum of the first n positive integers and get 1 + n = (1 + 1) + (n - 1) = 2 + (n - 1) = (2 + 1) + (n - 1 - 1) = 3 + (n-2).  In general, we see that when n is even, we have n/2 pairs of (n+1) so that: \n\nSum of first n positive integers when n is even = n(n+1)/2\n\nWhen n is odd, we have (n-1)/2 pairs of n+1 + the "middle number" (n+1)/2 so that we have \n\nSum of first n positive integers when n is odd = \n\n(n-1)(n+1)/2 + (n+1)/2 = (n-1 + 1)(n+1)/2 = n(n+1)/2\n\nTherefore either way, we have that the sum of the first n positive integers is n(n+1)/2.\n\nInterestingly enough, the teacher, not knowing the answer, bailed out Gauss because he came up with this answer so quickly so that it was assumed he was making it up.


"Gringo" is a mexican made up word to refer to Americans. It is derived from the spanish word that is "guerro" Guerro meaning "blonde" or "light skinned". In the united states Gringo is used by mexicans, or mexican americans to call out anglo americans. Yet in mexico "gringo" is called to everyone who is from america. Even mexicans that are born in the united states that go to mexico are refered to gringos. It can be seen as a racist word.

Does  a Florida Real estate sales agreement expire?  Mine is over a year old and still not resolved.?

Usually they do. In Arizona a listing contract is required to have a start and end date, you need to read yours.  There should also be a clause to cancel the contract as well.\n\nThe main thing that you should do is talk to your agent and express your concerns.

what is different between present prefect and present perfect continues tense ?

for starters, a few corrections...\n"i have worked there for four years" is poor grammar.\ninstead, it should be "i worked there for four years."\nand that's past tense... not present tense, and certainly not present perfect.\n\npresent perfect - action happened at an unspecified time before now... the exact time is not important.\nexamples:\n\ni have been to the mall.\nhe has never been on an airplane.\nmy math scores have improved since i started studying.\nman has walked on the moon.\nit hasn't stopped raining yet.\nshe has discussed her problem with many people.\n\npresent perfect continuous - something started in the past and continues up to now.\nexamples:\n\ni have been waiting for twenty minutes.\nshe has been working there since july.\nhe has been feeling depressed lately.\ni have had my car for two years.\nlately, i have been doing all of the work.

Partition Magic isn't free if that is what you are asking however there is an excellent free partitioning tool called Partition Logic, http://partitionlogic.org.uk/ which is a disk partitioning tool that boots from a CD and contains its own operating system so you can make a number of changes to your hard drive without affecting Windows.  I'd recommend Partition Logic over Partition Magic.


Would the study of zoos be called zoology?

Yes and they should make a show about that. I can see it now, scientists shooting visitors with tranquilizer guns and tagging them for later research. Awesome...


Is anyone familiar with modeling with NURBS in Maya.  I could use some help.?

All surfaces in maya are useful, thats why they're there. The best way to get started with nurbs is to prepare your shelf with the most usefull tools. Focus on loft buttons with different settings and add a few stitch tools. Search the web for 'Patch modelling' that will be the most useful type of tutorial. that should get you pointed in the right direction. Hope this helps.

What do Itatian boys like in girls any clue?

If you want to get an Italian man, here's the three things you need: \n1. you need to be GLAMOROUS. Plain "hot" can be found anywhere, any hoe out there can be "hot", we mean classy and feminine appearance.\n2. you need to be WILD, as opposed to s-lutty.. if you get my drift. We have hot girls all over the place here and a nice *ss is not enough for us to quit watching the soccer game. We need to see the kink before the pink to get turned on. Not the contrary.\n3. you need to be JEALOUS. Anything less is seen as a lack of love and our girls here are touchy and loving to the max. If you give anything less we think you're a dyke, no more no less.\n\nNo matter what, you're in for the wildest ride of your life. We do it like nobody else.


Paul of the Bible said, "The LOVE of money is the root of all evil".\n\nThe suicide bombers do not believe that they are doing an evil work. They believe they're doing Allah's work by striking at the infidels.\nAnd, for their sacrifice, in the Muslim heaven, they will be attended by 70 vrigins.  \nTalk about giving followers an incentive; actually a bribe to commit these acts.


Is there any scientific evidence that ghosts exist?

There is no scientific evidence that ghosts exist. \n\nThe idea behind ghosts comes from a religious view that people are built from two separate entities - a "body" that is mortal, and a "soul" or "mind" that is immortal. Scientific study, particularly in the function of the brain has pretty much shown that our mind is very much a product of the functioning of the brain - if certain parts of our brain are damaged, then we lose certain abilities such as talking, cognitive thinking, memory etc. So if the "soul" exists it's different to the mind and therefore it is not something that can be tested or understood scientifically. Scientists have not discovered any evidence for a soul.\n\nGhosts are meant to represent the souls of people whose bodies are dead, so, years ago, when people believed in such a distinction, stories about ghosts were very common and people often mistook natural things for ghosts.


Inflation is actually created by growth. The key to keeping the economy in balance is growing at a steady rate. That's why we experienced widespread inflation in the 90s with such unreasonable growth. As fantastic as growth is, it has its own problems.\n\nHowever, there can also be inflation at the same time as an economy slowdown. (For instance, in any major historical depression, infation becomes high. In the German depression after WW1, people would actually run out and buy things immediately after getting paid because their money depreciated by the minute.)\n\nMostly, increased demand increases inflation. Decreased supply (such as with oil) also increases inflation. There are several other factors, but these are the major issues.\n\nRaising prices, though an indicator of inflation, also work to curb inflation sometimes by curbing demand. Of course, this only really works with goods that have relatively elastic demands.


What was the song that the French players were singing during the World Cup 1998?

I will survive by Gloria but it was sang by a tall skinny black french woman. I can't think of her name, but she was brought to every single french televesion channel (TF1, F2, M6, canal+..) for months after france won. Great reproduction, perfect accent.\nI loved it.

How will I know if a guy likes me even if he doesn't tell it so?

Watch his body language. If he touches you slightly, but not rudely, if he looks in your eyes when you are talking to him, does he lean into you when you are sitting together, do you catch him looking at you when you are at places together but are not right by each other.  Subtle things like that will let you know. Or you could just ask him.

Why are Lawyers so hated when they're the ones who stand up for people's rights?

I don't think people realize what it is that they really hate about lawyers. I know their great in a lot of ways, but I think that I hate the way they can really turn the truth into a lie.Just depends on who they have to defend.\nIts their job. Poor guys, and gals. You gotta do  what you gotta do.


Has anyone ever applied for a government grant and was succesful? If so, how did you go about recieving info?

It is hard to find grants to start a business or for personal purposes such as fixing basements. Unlike the myths that some perpetuate, federal government and even private foundations hardly give grant money for a for-profit business. And yes, grants mean PAPERWORK - lots and lots of it, that is why a cottage industry of grant writers was born.\n\nNonetheless, you can go to the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) http://www.cfda.gov and Grants.gov http://www.grants.gov - these are two sites created by the federal government to provide transparency and information on grants. Browse through the listings and see if you can find any grant that would support a for-profit venture.\n\nEven if you buy books on "how to get grants" or list that supposedly has information on grants -- all of them are mere rehash of what CFDA has, albeit packaged differently. But still the info is the same - hardly any grants for starting a for profit business.\n\nEven SBA does NOT give out grants. From the SBA website http://www.sba.gov/expanding/grants.html... \n\n"The U.S. Small Business Administration does not offer grants to start or expand small businesses, although it does offer a wide variety of loan programs. (See http://www.sba.gov/financing for more information) While SBA does offer some grant programs, these are generally designed to expand and enhance organizations that provide small business management, technical, or financial assistance. These grants generally support non-profit organizations, intermediary lending institutions, and state and local governments."\n\nMost of the federal grants are given to specific target groups with specific requirements (e.g. minority business owners involved in transportation related contracts emanating from DOT - Grant#20.905 Disadvantaged Business Enterprises Short Term Lending Program \n\nGrants are also often given to non profit groups or organizations involved in training or other similar activities (grant 59.043 Women's Business Ownership Assistance that are given to those who will create women's business center that will train women entrepreneurs \n\nFor private grants, you may want to check the Foundation Center's Foundation Grants for Individuals Online. It's a subscription based website ($9.95 per month) but their opening blurb only says that the database is ideal for "students, artists, academic researchers, libraries and financial aid offices." Entrepreneurs are apparently not one of them, so I take it they also don't have listings of private foundations who give grants to would-be entrepreneurs.


Do you have to be charged with the intended felony to be convicted by felony murder?

In most states you have to be convicted of the underlying crime to be convicted of felony murder.\n\nIt sounds to me like you got charged with conspiracy which is a whole different ballgame.  If you are involved in a conspiracy to commit burglary, and someone dies in the process, you can be held liable for that death, even if you didn't end up having anything to do with the burglary itself unless you clearly renounce your involvement in the conspiracy prior to the death.  Sitting at home watching tv isn't an excuse if you were part of the conspiracy before.\n\nGood luck!


Depends on the girl. If their anything like me you can put your hands a whole lot more places!


Who occupied the area of Israel First?  Serious replies only?

Historically or Biblically? This area has been occupied more the a Greyhound bus terminal toilet. If you mean during the last 100 years, Isreal was created by land taken from Arab farmers. When Palestine was still a British protectorate, Jewish terrorists organized groups to blow up train tracks, power stations and government installations(sound familiar) When the state of Isreal was declared, paniced Arab farmers fled the region and Jewish settlers took over their lands. These farmers settled in Syrian, Lebanese and Jordanian refugee camps which became known as the Palistinian problem. More land was taken over after a series of almost comical wars(where the US military supplied and backed the state of Isreal defeated all Arab states) occupied those lands run over during the wars and did not attempt to give them back until recently. What caused this? Collective world guilt over the Holocaust, the common belief at the time that the general Arab population of that area were just ignorant and itinerant farmers that had no real right to the land, a Zionistic , and sometimes hysterical approach of Jewish settlers in the 60's and 70's along with the generally unsupportable stance of many successive US governemnts has led to the intolerable situation that we see today. The Gov. of Isreal, the US Gov. The UN, the British as well as the intransigient position of the Arab world where Isreal is concerned has led to this mess. The world should back off and let those in the area determine their future.


The Accumulate amount, A, = Pe^(in) where P is the investment, i is the interest rate and n is the time.  e is a mathmatical number and is on your calculator.\n\nTo find the present value of an investment n years ago you would use this formula PV = P(1+i)^n  with P the initial investment, i your interest, and n your time.\n\nyou will have to look at when your interest is compounded, if it is monthly or semi-annual make sure to adjust your interest and time accordingly

why has my computer has suddenly just started inserficent system ressouress messseges evertime i cllck a icon?

The most likely answer to your question, is that you are running out of RAM or hard drive space. Every time you try to open a program (ie. click on an icon) you get that message if you do not have enough RAM to load the program into memory or you don't have enough space on your hard drive for your paging file.\n\nI would recommend that you first, uninstall any unneeded programs that run at start up. Second run disk clean up on your hard drive to conserve space, you might want to think about compressing the drive. Third I would check how much RAM you have whether or not you want to upgrade.\n\nTo find out how much RAM you have right click on your "my computer" icon and left click on properties. It will display your total RAM on bottom of the dialog box.\nTo find out how much free space you have on your hard drive, double click on your my computer icon, right click on your hard drive and left click on properties, it will show you a graphical representation of how much hard drive space you have. Also you will be able to find tools to clean up the hard drive in that dialog box.


Can a person learn how to roll their r's?

It is not something passed on from parents. I learned how at summer camp. I met this Puerto Rican who couldn't roll her R's and her mother (Both parents are Puerto Rican) taught her by having her repeat the word butter over and over again. So, I did that for a week and I am now able to roll my R's.


What impact did scandals in the executive branch offices have on foreign relations?

Actually, White House scandals are not all that important for foreign relations - Clinton is still a huge and prominent statesman figure around the globe and the Bush-CIA leak is seen as a rather odd american thing. Important for foreign relations is that which touches foreigners; witness the current row over CIA's extraordinary renditions and Guantanamo, or the Iran-Contras scandal, or indeed the justifications for the Iraq war - clearly the Administration lied about WMD and that is seriously harming American interests overseas.

Why is homosexuality seen as a greater sin?

it's a sin, allright.\nbut in no aspect whatsoever that it is a greater sin.\nYou are right, judging people, liars, adulterers, thieves, gossippers, murderes, and so on are equal sinners as homosexuals (who practice the lifestyles).\n\nChurch who treates homosexuals badly are the misguided one.\nThey are basically the same like the pharisees during the  bible times.\n\nI believe if Jesus to walk the earth today, he would hang out in the midst of homosexuals (delivering them from bondage) -just like he walked in the past (among tax collectors, prostitutes, and so on).\n\nPerhaps, the reason why YOU are put in that kind of church is to testify Jesus' love by reminding them (the congregation and the pastors) the bible truth. That they should treated the homosexuals like human being.\nRemind them that they should hate the sins, not the sinners.


Did God Make A Mistake, or Put that Darn Fruit in the Garden for His own Pleasure?

God maks no mistakes! It is man who makes mistakes!\n\n  I can;t believe that Christians are answering in such a childish manner concerning this question. First of all the apple bit is a myth incerted into our bibles by those we allow to translate and print it .for the past three hundred years Jews have been translating and printing the Christians Bible and perverting it I believe in order to make us ignorant of GODs true word\n\n The BIBLE says to STUDY TO SHOW YOURSELF THE APPROVED WORD OF GOD.  To do that you must not believe that simply because someone hands you a Bible it is the "approved word " of GOD. To do this you must put some effort in it in order to prove your love for GOD. You must research history and go back and research the anciant writings of the bible . The greek Septuagint is one such anciant manuscript of Gods true word, untouched by Jewish translator. It was left in the hands of the Greeks because God knew they would not misstanslate it  and would present it as it was given to them. You can purchase an English version of the GReek Septuagitn today in order to put all these childhood , judao myths to rest.\n\n   First there was no fruit such as an apple in the bible. i have several old versions and in my 1703 verson it says that EVE WAS BEGUILED BY the SERPENT which is to mean that Eve was sexually tempted and did partake of the serpant in sex. \n\n God calls all things fruit because they are the fruit of GODS labor Adam and Eve were the fruit of GOdS labor and so was Satan.He says be fruitful and multiply meaning this toward humans and the multiplying of the people. He warned Adam and Eve that they could partake of any fruit in the garden which consisted only of Adam and Eve and the other fruit that God forbade them to partake of was the Fruit ( creation of satan whoc had more knwledge than they) of knowledge which was satan himself.\nDictionary\n par·take    ( P )  Pronunciation Key  (pär-tk)\nv. par·took, (-tk) par·tak·en, (-tkn) par·tak·ing, pa·takes \nv. intr.\nTo take or have a part or share; participate.  \nTo have part of the quality, nature, or character of something. \n\nv. tr.\nTo take or have a part in; share in.\n \n Eve was "Beguiled " (seduced ) by satan and that resulted in the son CAIN and later the Cannites.\n\nDictionary:Beguiled\n\nadj : filled with wonder and delight [syn: captivated, charmed, delighted, enthralled, entranced]\n\n     It was Cain who is the son of Satan and thusly the earthly seed of satan was born. \n\n  God warned them and Eve partook with satan once he beguiled and suduced her and then she shared with Adam whom when God asked why is it that they know they are naked, Adam responded " lord it is that woman you gave me." God was not madd at Adam because of the lust between Adam and Eve , He was angry because Eve disobeyed GOD and did partake of the fruit of knowledge ( the only one who had knowledge besides GOd at that time) and was impregnated with satans seed. God refers to all human creation as Fruit!\n\nGen 30:2 And Jacob's anger was kindled against Rachel: and he said, [Am] I in God's stead, who hath withheld from thee the fruit of the womb? \n\nExd 21:22 If men strive, and hurt a woman with child, so that her fruit depart [from her], and yet no mischief follow: he shall be surely punished, according as the woman's husband will lay upon him; and he shall pay as the judges [determine]. \n\nDeu 7:13 And he will love thee, and bless thee, and multiply thee: he will also bless the fruit of thy womb, and the fruit of thy land, thy corn, and thy wine, and thine oil, the increase of thy kine, and the flocks of thy sheep, in the land which he sware unto thy fathers to give thee. \n\n  In all transcripts of the Bible from 1611 back to the time of Christ there is no mention of an apple or the fruit of a tree . It read that Adam and Eve was not to partake of the fruit of knowledge whcih is the serpent satan. Jewish translation

How long is fair to wait before you start dating a friends ex?

I have to agree with springo 88, it is an unwritten rule in life that if you want to date a friends ex, you don't!! and if you are serious about it, you must tell your friend everything and ask if it is okay to seek a relationship with their ex, and If they say they would be uncomfortable with that situation..then you better respect their wishes and find someone else or you have no right to call yourself anybody's friend!!! boyfriends and girlfriends will come and go but you should be loyal to your real friends and find someone who will not cause any tension between you and your friend..best of luck to you !!

WOMEN AND VICTORIAN VALUES, 1837-1910\nAdvice Books, Manuals and Journals for Women \n\n\nPart 5: Sources from the Bodleian Library, Oxford \n\nWomen and Victorian Values, 1837-1910 offers a wide selection of materials concerning the many roles played by women in the Victorian period.  \n\nDuring the Victorian and Edwardian periods society was underpinned by rigid moral and social values; with ideal forms of masculine and feminine behaviour.  Moral respectability and domesticity were important ideologies of feminine behaviour.  The womans mission was that of supportive wife, dutiful daughter, and caring mother, and the womans domestic role was seen as an important and pivotal part of society.  It was especially important that mothers should teach their children the values of Christian morality, which formed the foundation of society.  For men society dictated they take the authoritative role as head of the household.  The public sphere of society was controlled by male authority, with very little room for women. \n\nPart 5 concentrates on the writings of sixteen Victorian authors, from Sarah Adams to Charlotte Yonge.  The texts, in the form of manuals, advice books, essays, pamphlets and novels, are written by authors from differing social classes, and reveal insights into many areas of Victorian social behaviour. \n\nWe begin the collection with The complete servant (1825) by Sarah and Samuel Adams, who combined their fifty years of practical experience as servants to write this guide.  Written from the viewpoint of the working classes the manual contains information relating to the duties of all servants, from the housekeeper to the servant of all-work, and from the land steward to the foot boy. \n\nIsabella Mary Beeton and Samuel Orchart Beeton produced a series of extremely popular household manuals which were widely read from the mid-nineteenth century onwards.  These books were influential to the way Victorian women ran their households, and we have included ten titles in our collection.  Isabella Beeton combines practical advice with an eye to thrift and economy in titles such as, Beetons Penny Cookery Book being useful recipes for good breakfasts, dinners and suppers at a cost varying from Tenpence to Two Shillings per day for Six Persons (c.1870).  Beeton also wrote on the care of children, as in The management of children in health and sickness (1873).  While in Beetons domestic service guide (c.1875) Samuel Beeton writes about the laws between servants and masters, monthly wages, peculiar grounds for dismissal and other related matters.  Other titles by Samuel Beeton include Beetons Englishwoman Annual (1875), and Beetons complete etiquette for ladies (1876), with a companion volume of etiquette for men. \n\nElizabeth Blackwell was a leading figure in opening up the medical profession to women.  She was the first woman to earn a medical degree in the United States in 1849, and the first woman listed in the Medical Registry of the United Kingdom in 1859.  We include a selection of her writings on health and social issues relevant to the period.  For example, the essay The laws of life (1859) gives advice on the importance of physical education for both mental and physical wellbeing in all areas of life.  Also included is the classic text entitled Counsel to parents on the moral education of their children in relation to sex (1879).  A pamphlet on the Purchase of Women: the great economic blunder (1877) concerns the evils and morals of prostitution found in all walks of society.  Blackwell documents her medical career through her correspondence with relatives and friends, and through her journal in Pioneer work in opening the medical profession to women autobiographical sketches (1895).  She was a source of inspiration for many Victorian women. \n\nThe popular works of Lydia Maria Child were written from an American view of society and culture.  We have selected five of these texts which were also popular with women i

How were the American, French, and Russian revolution about the economy?

Well, the American Revolution was related to the economy because the British government was taxing the colonies on anything they did, not giving the colonists any say in the taxes.  The French revolution was related because the King was essentially hoarding all of the wealth, taxing the snot out of the population, so they revolted.  Marie Antionette's "let them eat cake" comment didn't help either.\nThe Russian revolution was largely the same thing, the nation was poor as dirt, and still living pre-industrial technologies.

Why does sunlight make some colors fade and still make other colors like white yellow and certain people tan?

the UV waves cause heterolytic fission of chemical bonds creating "radicals" which are very reactive species.  They will react with pretty much anything.  The UV radiation is therefore breaking down the skin and the colour molecules in paint and clothes, making them look like they are losing their colour.  The purpose of sun-tan lotion is not only to stop the UV radiation getting to your skin, but also to mop up all the free-radicals formed before they do any damage.  Skin cancer is caused by this process.  You are essentially changing the structure of the skin.

Can you  have a friends with benefits relationship without emotions getting envolved and feelings getting hurt

Feelings always get involved.  That's why these type of relationships never last.  How will you feel when you find out he sleeping with another girl or more than one while he's sleeping with you.  And if that doesn't bother you how are you going to feel when he gets scary jelous over normal guy friends of yours.  Or when he ends the relationship for no reason or won't acknowledge to his friends that he's seeing you.  There's too many ways for it to end badly.  And it always ends badly one way or another.

Would Windows Vista be available on the Next MacBook Pro's?

I wouldn't be too sure that Apple would bundle a Windows OS with a new machine. True, it would be an attractive option for Apple to increase sales; true, Microsoft never met an OEM it didn't want to swindle.\n\nThat said, Microsoft pretty much screwed over Mac three times: First, by pirating much of the mouse-GUI work Apple stole from Xerox and improved; second, engaging in some pretty anti-competitive practices with PC manufacturers to increase its market share back in the late 1980s / early 1990s; third, pulling the rug out from under Apple by discontining Internet Explorer and Outlook Express for Mac OS 9 and refusing to make OS 10 versions (actually, MS pretty much pulled the plug on all its Mac software except Office).\n\nTrue, most of that happened during Steve Jobs' hiatus; true, Jobs is no dummy, and knows Microsoft is better as an ally than an adversary. So maybe there will be a package deal.\n\nAnd certainly, Mac users are used to paying more than market for equipment and software, so charing them an extra $100 or so for the OEM version of Vista probably wouldn't matter.\n\nBut most Mac users remember the bad old days; many intentionally don't want Windows; Apple has pretty much staked its future on the success of OS 10; and it serves marketing purposes to keep at least an arms-length from Microsoft (remember the old "1984" commercial and how it launched Mac).\n\nSo, if I was to gamble, I'd guess that Vista won't be packaged with Apple, but Boot Camp will; or, you'll be able to order a dual-boot system for a premium.

What ever happened to Craig Kilborn??  Why did that stupid freakin guy from Drew Carey take his job?

Craig Kilborn, Saying Farewell To CBS's 'Late Late Show'\n\nBy Lisa de Moraes\nSaturday, August 14, 2004; Page C07 \n\nCraig Kilborn is bowing out as host of CBS's post-"David Letterman" late-night show. \n\nKilborn failed to reach a deal for a new contract after weeks of talks, sources say, and he and the network were far apart on salary.   \n        \n \nA CBS rep would not discuss the particulars. "We'd been talking to him about a new deal since as early as May, but throughout the summer," the spokesman told The TV Column. \n\nOn Thursday, "Craig just came to us and said that he didn't want to do it anymore, he wanted to do something different," the rep said. \n\nKilborn then got out ahead of the story by telling trade paper Variety late Thursday that he had decided to call it a day so he could have time to "focus on writing and producing different television projects I haven't had time for." \n\nKilborn's last day as host of "The Late Late Show" could come as early as the end of this month. The show was already scheduled to be on hiatus the first two weeks in September. The CBS rep said the search for a replacement began immediately. \n\nThe rep stressed that CBS was happy with Kilborn's performance in the time slot that had been occupied by Tom Snyder from January '95 until shortly before Kilborn debuted in March '99: \n\n"Craig did a really good job for us in that time period. . . . Ratings and revenues did increase pretty substantially, both total viewers and demographics. He did what we asked in the time period, brought us younger viewers and helped us make more money in the time period." \n\nHmm. Let's take a look: \n\nDuring his run, Snyder averaged 1.6 million viewers and a 0.7 rating among 18-to-49-year-olds; the median age of his audience was 42 1/2 years. \n\nIn his tenure, Kilborn's show has averaged 1.5 million viewers and a 0.7 among 18-to-49-year-olds; the median age of his audience is 41 1/2 years, according to Nielsen. This season Kilborn's show has averaged 1.7 million viewers and a 0.7 rating in the demographic group. \n\nMeanwhile, his time-slot competitor, NBC's Conan O'Brien, is averaging nearly 2.6 million viewers -- granted, with a larger lead-in audience provided by Jay Leno than Letterman serves up to Kilborn. \n\nKilborn retains about 39 percent of his Letterman lead-in; O'Brien about 43 percent of Leno's lead-in. In the 18-49 demographic, which is the target audience for these late-night shows, O'Brien hangs on to about 55 percent of Leno's audience and Kilborn about 46 percent of Letterman's. \n\nKilborn was all the rage back when he was a co-anchor of ESPN's "SportsCenter." Then he went to Comedy Central's "The Daily Show," where he was considered so hot Esquire did a feature on him. Kilborn said in the course of that interview that if he ever wanted his female executive producer to do to him what Dick Cheney this summer suggested Sen. Patrick Leahy should do to himself, she would. \n\nKilborn thought to add, "There are a lot of bitches on the staff and hey, they're emotional people." \n\nIs it any wonder that when CBS was looking for someone to replace Snyder and, hopefully, attract more young male viewers, they went with Kilborn instead of Jon Stewart, on whom they had an option? \n\nBut these days, Kilborn is yesterday's news, while his rival O'Brien is the rage. Reportedly Fox and ABC are eyeing O'Brien, who has been itching to get an earlier time slot and very publicly expressed his displeasure that NBC recently signed Leno to "The Tonight Show" through the end of the decade. O'Brien will be available in December. Sources in Hollywood say it would be incredible for CBS to get O'Brien to even entertain the idea of taking Kilborn's slot without a guarantee that Letterman will

I want to build my own pretty website!!!?

Even though it's next to impossible to get a site that's ad-free and totally free to you, there are lots of great tools out there that are helpful, including sites that offer templates and help you get started. I have been impressed with the tools and service of GoDaddy (www.godaddy.com). If you'd like to learn more about the process, consider buying this book, which outlines the process, step-by-step: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0764507206/103-8389304-7234204?v=glance&n=283155\n\nHere's some tips from http://website-design.mcdar.net/:\n\nSo you want to build a website here I will explain some simple but also key aspects that are commonly taken in to consideration when a website developer creates a website.\n\n1) Website Design - The website design must be neat meaning that everything looks like where it is meant to be (nothing out of place or out of proportion). Also your sites design is related to the topic of your website e.g. your site is about flowers then your design must have flowers.\n\n2) Site Navigation - Visitors must be able to get where they want to go without going through a maze a good way of putting it if you can get there in 3 clicks it should be fine. Also it helps when search engine spiders go through your site since it makes it easy for the spiders to index the site.\n\n3) Domain Name - Domain name is important since it is one of the first thing that your visitors will see. Your domain should relate to your site topic or business name. Length of the domain usually 6-8 characters is a good length and easy for visitors to type.\n\n4) Scroll Bars - don't make your website pages too long so your visitors have to scroll for hours it is also a good option to just create another page and don't make people scroll side to side.\n5) Returning Visitors - make your visitors return to your site by adding one or all to your site:\n\n- Email Newsletter (Ezine)\n- Community Forums\n- Online Tools\n- Online Games\n- Useful Content\n- Competitions and Prizes\n- and so on\n\n5) Website Logo - Make your logo unique and brandable so that people will remember your logo and then will remember your site and products.\n\nThese are some simple points that you may take into consideration when you build your website if you need some further assistance have a look at your competitors website and see what they have done. Remember what you put in is what you get out of your website and on that note GOOD LUCK and enjoy the whole process of building your very own virtual property.\n\n\nAll that said, if you'd like something simple and quick, here's the company that made my website, and they charged me less than $300. I knew nothing about doing it, but it came out great and they guided me every step of the way: www.wordtechs.com.\n\n\nGood luck with your new venture!\n~Tia~


why do magazines say that bush is the worst president in history?  what do you think about bush?

I would place him among the worst leaders in the world, not just this country.  Active/Negative presidencies tend to end badly and I have similar expectations for this on.  Bush should never have been elected and in fact the first election was stolen.\n\nHe is a hand puppet for Neocon, religious right wing evangelicals  and Corporate organizations seeking to acquire power. \n\nThe man has no intellectual curriosity, no integrity, and no aptitude and no honor.  This is just the kind of person who fronts for criminals. \nI think those magazines are symptoms of a serious rot that permeated his administration.

Is the light from the sun the same as the radiance (heat)?

Although they are part of the same phenomenon, heat and light are at different wavelengths; Imagine a Rainbow going from Red to Blue, the radiation wavelengths behave in a similar way, thus, the heat from the Sun is derived from the "red" end of the spectrum, the Light from the Blue end all travelling together at the same velocity.


my husband does snore and it seems to have gotten worse over the last year. I had him go to the Dr. for a physical and  the Dr. referred him to a sleep lab where they do whats called a sleep study. Turns out my husband has sleep apnea( this is where he actually stops breathing many times a night) scarey huh? He is going back to the sleep lab in May for another study this time they will be using a special type of breathing mask to see if it helps keep the airway from collapsing while he sleeps.

We are all children of God. Why is it that people of differnt cultures cannot get along?

Because most people would not agree that we are all the children of *one* God.  They'd say we are all children of different Gods, and that makes some of us superior to others, saying "my God is better than your God."  Don't remember who said it, but there is the quote "Ideologies separate us.  Dreams and anguish bring us together."

how many centemeter a human get taller in the age between 11-18?

depends on the Human Growth Hormone produced by the person. normally girls will start 'becoming taller' at the age of 13 untill 17 and boys usually at the age of 15 untill 18. this is why u see girls are usually taller in schools than boys !! i dont know how many CMs coz it depends on 2 things, the genetics of the person (if his/her parents were tall ..etc) and enviromental conditions (as nutrietion..etc)


street drugs that conteract with medicine?

Those are anti-HIV medications aren't they?\n\nI'm not sure about the drug interactions - but I know that Meth makes HIV replicate at a higher rate than when you're not using meth.  Essentially, you're getting more infectious and making yourself sicker everytime you use meth.\n\nMeth also affects the same neurotransmitters in the brain that HIV does.  Many meth users with AIDS progress to dementia much sooner than non-meth using AIDS patients.\n\nIf you're not concerned about your own health, that's your own perrogitive.  I really hope you're protecting your partners though by wearing a condom, or making them wear one.

Most birds who nest in trees weave their nests in order that it stay  together.  If birds just piled stuff up it would blow  away in a strong  wind.  But there are a number of species of birds who weave elaborate hanging woven nests.  The generic name for these is "weaver birds".  They live in large colonies, weaving their nests very close together  in the same tree.  There are also a  number of species of  "Bower birds", who create elaborate bowers, part of which is woven into an arch.  These bowers are not actually nests, however, but male displays aimed at attracting females.

doe anybody know how to get a new credit file?

I need more details, but taking your question at face value, I mist say IT IS IMPOSSIBLE.  Credit bureau companies use your SSN to ID you FROM BIRTH and unless you have more than 1 SSN, they will never give a new credit file.  So, get a new name, birth day & SSN, then you get a new credit file.\nThey also TRACK the SSN from birth.

First, you have to own the rights to the show. If you don't you're breaking the law and could be prosecuted. No video site that I know of will allow content that you don't own, both moving images and music. If you do and can prove it, upload it to www.muzility.com.\n\nGood luck.

perbezaan antara falsafah legalisme & confucianisme?

Confucius taught that government should rule through rites and rules in tune with the commoner's natural morality. Therefore, one will refrain from breaking a law because it goes against his conscience to do so; the "punishment" preceeds the crime. Therefore, because these laws enforce themselves without effort, the government will not have to resort to force to keep the peace.\n\nChinese legalism is based upon the assumption that personal morality changes and that one can therefore control the commoners and enforce peace only with outside measures. A law, therefore, must be well-publicized and have a concrete reward or punishment coinciding with whether it is followed or not in fact; the punishment follows the crime. Laws would be supreme in this state, even over the ruler, thereby making all human interaction predicatable and hopefully harmonious.

Once you get the judgment that will show up as negative on credit for 7-10 yrs.  You can also record a lien, filing the lien form (a form you that you can purchase from a legal document store) with the property parcel no. etc in the recorders office.  Just know that up too $100k of her portion of the equity is protected by the homestead act & will get you nothing.  More than likely down the road when she does want to buy a home on her own she will be forced to contact you & pay you off.  Another option you have is once the judgement it done, you can try selling the debt to a collection agency that will harass her for payment.

Metal fillings are toxic so you need to replace them at a very high cost to you and make the dentist rich.  The plastic fillings he will put in will look better, not last as long and probably lead to more root canals and crowns over the span of your life.  It's a win win situation for everybody. \nSeriously though, if they were toxic they would have to outlaw seafood too.  Leave your metal fillings alone they may fail someday, but why go looking for trouble.


Can you help me figure out what movie this is??


Is it normal if i started my periodthis year that it last longer than 10 days?

Yes this is perfectly normal... when i first got my period it lasted about a week and a half, then i got it again about 3 weeks later. Your period will be irregular to begin with until your body gets used to the change. Once this happens you will only get it roughly once a month and most periods only last for about 3-7 days depending on the individual.\n\nIf further down the track your periods continue to be irregular you might want to consider the pill (contraceptive). The pill will make your period regular and will stop you from bleeding for as long. The bonus out of this also is that you can tell exactly when you'll get your next period and the pill also gives you the option to skip periods which is actually good for girls (only if you skip it once in a blue moon, so like say every 3-4 months).\n\nHope this info helped, if you have any further questions consult your doctor as they are the best people to get this kind of info from. Good Luck Hun : )

I agree with you. There are too many here that do not speak any word of English but yet they want to live here and be treated like citizens.

It is good to keep speaking your home language but you need to speak English as well


Steve Westly for Governer, California. Wife Anita Yu - Biography? Pictures?

It's generally best to keep your family out of politics, considering how dirty it is. Especially in this state. Afterall, Westly may be a public figure, but his wife isn't.

Her family settled in San Diego and she graduated with a B.S. from San Diego State University.

Does anybody ever get a itchy butt crack( I do wash it) and how do you get rid of it?

This problem could be caused by an infection.\nThis could also be because your hot and sweater and the sweat dripping is causing it itch considering it's pretty much trapped or it be the total opposite that you may have really dry skin and need to apply a fragrance free and oil free body cream there sparingly. \nMake sure that your wiping everything off, but not to hard to irrate your skin.\nIf these do not work the best thing for you to do is to see a doctor (I'm sure they hear it all anyway) and they could probably cure it up instantly.

How can American school kids be taught this way?

The "intelligent design" bandwagon is rolling towards the UK too!\n\nIn direct contrast to the US, we have compulsory school prayer and compulsory religious education, which is probably why we have one of the lowest rates of church going in Christendom (much lower than the US)!\n\nGiven that we have religious education as a school subject compulsory for all students, it seems pretty obvious to me that religious creation myths should be taught in religious education and evolution should be taught in science.  To mix the two would be to confuse the nature of science and religion (the "how" and the "why").\n\nIn the US, you don't have religious education taught in schools, and I think this is why you have more of a problem.  Not teaching children about religion leaves a great many things unexplained!

How does a person add their degree earned to their signature?

Back in the day when a 4 year degree meant something, one might sign B.S. after their name. Now it is considered pretentious to sign with an undergraduate, or even Master's degrees. With a Ph.D., it is best servd by prefixing one's name with 'Dr.', but even that is considered poor ettiquete.\n\nThe best thing to do would be just to leave that kind of thing for your business card, where your name can be followed by the degree and any other certifications you may have (such as C.P.A. for accountants.

What is the difference between a Carousel and a Merry-go-Round?

Carousels have all kinds of animals, merry-go-rounds have only horses.\n\nHere's a lengthy treatise on the subject, that is quite thorough:\n\nMerry-Go-Round and Carousel\nBy Mark Chester\n\nEliyahu Shahar wrote, in part: "What I learned years ago at Disneyland was that their carousel is a 'carousel' because all of the riders are on horses that go up and down."\n\nI have no doubt that that is what they told him, but if this is what Disneyland is telling their customers, then they are misinforming them. Few machines have only jumping horses, including the ones at Disneyland and Disney World and, in fact these were altered to eliminate the standers and chariots.  It is not authentic.\n\nMost machines have at least two chariots, and approximately one-third stationary animals.  In fact, Philadelphia Toboggan Company referred to its machines as "carrousels" even though its earliest were all stationary.  Charles Looff's first machine at Coney Island in 1876, with all stationary animals, had a sign reading "Charles Looff's\n_Carrousel_."\n\nThe terms "merry-go-round" and "carousel" are perfectly synonymous; there is, and has never been, any difference between their meanings, as far back as we are able to trace their uses.  The best research on this subject is probably Fred Fried's 1964 opus, "A Pictorial History of the Carousel."  On pages 18 and 19 the origin of both terms is\ndiscussed.\n\nCarousel (also spelled carrousel, carrouselle, and possibly a dozen other combinations) is from a French word which is derived from an Italian word.  Patty Slayton reported that "Painted Ponies" says "carosello" was a 17th century Italian word that meant "little war." I believe that the correct spelling for the Italian word would be "garosello" because the Italian word for war is guerro, and the "-ello"\nsuffix puts it in the diminutive just as "fiorello" means "little flower" (fior being Italian for flower.)  I believe that "carosello" is the Spanish version of the same word.  And "merry-go-round" is credited to a 1729 poem by George Alexander Stevens describing the St. Bartholomew Fair.\n\nI think that the biggest difference is a matter of snob appeal here in the US.  "Merry-go-round" is distinctly English (although the English refer to their machines as roundabouts) and thus sounds commonplace. "Carousel" is French-sounding and thus more exotic.  Add a few letters\n("carrouselle") and it appears even more so.  So a manufacturer (or owner) that desired to add an aura of mystique to their machine(s) would refer to it as a carousel and not a merry-go-round.  Most manufacturers used the term carousel (however they spelt it) in their written materials (and that included machines with stationary or jumping animals or even a combination).\n\nPhiladelphia Toboggan Company distinguished their output with a double "r" in the spelling, and that is where the word "carrousel" received its widest use.  (A few other manufacturers also used the double "r".) Hersheypark has PTC 47 which they refer to as the "carrousel."  I believe that Dr. Bill Black derived the spelling of the name of his company, "Carrousel Music", from the fact that it was\nfrom the Hersheypark machine that he acquired his lifelong interest.\n\nMy own experience is with the Whalom Park machine.  When I worked there in the late 1970s and early 1980s it was referred to as the "merry-go-round" both officially on all park brochures and other documents and unofficially among the workers.  The key tag read "merry-go-round."  Once I became more aware of its historical significance (not yet realizing its true significance until the fall of 2001 when I was able to date it more accurately) I started referring\nto it as the "ca

I need an alternative school for my daughter who has ADHD in the suburbs surrouding Cleveland, Ohio?

Talk to the school.  Every child is entitled to an education under the law, so if it means that school has to do some special accomodations for your child, so be it.  As a parent you have the right to insist on that for your child.  There may, however, be a resource the school can direct you to (like another more appropriate school)instead of modifying the child's current school enviroment.  good luck!

GOOD MORNING! I just answered a previous question about DOG OWNERS WHO HAVE OVER 2-BIG DOGS..to me, IT'S WRONG

Im not a dog person myself but I have no problem with people having them as pets. On the matter of how many, all cities and towns have bylaws on the number of pets allowed to a property. I'm pretty sure 6 is beyond the limit for most. If you have concerns you could always call city hall and ask them on their bylaw. As for dogs with aggressive behaviours, try first expressing your concern to the owner then to the local animal control unit. Nothing may come out of it to begin with but if something ever does happen at least they have a previous complaint to act upon.

Lavender is very soothing for your skin and also your mood, so get some lavender oil and pour a little in the bath tub with warm water (not hot) and soak in it for a little while.  as with buying any essential oils make sure they do not have a bunch of crude in them cause then they are not worth buying.


It is available on Lifetime website as a ring tone. I am sure they will put the Mp3 out before too long. Watch the site for it.


Who do you go to to report a rape that happen when you were 13 and now your 40?

She needs to report it to the law enforcement agency who has jurisdiction over where the rape occurred.\n\nThe ability to prosecute the crime will vary widely between states, and in California I seriously doubt it would be prosecutable.

I keep hearing about Scientology and all its evils and dangers...is it really so bad?

Scientology - The word Scientology literally means "the study of truth." It comes from the Latin word "scio" meaning "knowing in the fullest sense of the word" and the Greek word "logos" meaning "study of." \n\nAny religion going to war with any other religion will desperately fight the cause of the other.  I recently discussed with someone the arguments between Evolutionists and Creationists... and we came to the same conclusion.  Regardless of who is 'right' or 'wrong' (if you dare consider it in those terms), neither side will agree.  \n\nMy answer to your question?  Do some research, learn a little about it and study other religions and come to your own conclusion.  There's no other way, except to "conform."\n\nI hope this helps.


Who was the American best baseball team for this season?

Since the season is only a few weeks old, you have to go with the Boston Red Sox.  They have the best record in baseball at 11-4.  And of course, the Bears have a long way to go before they have any success outside the football field.
