I'd have to agree with the person that said George W. Bush and Osama Bin Laden, although with me it's clearly George W. Bush.  What Bush has done over the last 5 years is no better that what Bin Laden has done.  In a land of democracy, he has decided to invade other countries for his own benefit and not the benefit of the American people.  Basically, the phrase "for the people, by the people" does not exist in W's world, more like "for W (and Cheney, Rice, etc.), by W (and Cheney, etc.).

What's the best workout routine for a male beginner?

Yes, when doing weight training, starts with the major groups of muscles. Do pull-up, bench press, row, squat. You are right man. For aerobics like running and swimming, do at least 15 min of warm-up, you are right again man.\n\nHowever, there are many variations, and it is pretty hard to do a standard routine here by answering to thousands of this kind of questions (perhaps they should buy a book and do some reading first) As a fitness trainer myself, I will say without a good assessment, any suggestion here including mine is for reference only.\n\nOne thing for sure, it takes 20 years for me to learn and improve what I am doing now in weight training and aerobics.


How do I get my toolbar back in YahooMail compose for e-mail with color and graphics. Mine just disappeared.?

The toolbar will only work with certain browswers. If it isn't working, you can switch back to plain text as explained in the link below. The same method will work to switch back to html (with toolbar) if it is on text now.

WOW! What a situation...The advise given above is very good...You sound like a Christian, ( you chose my answer about "if today was your last day. etc". So, first of all, as you already know, prayers are a neccessary part of the answer. Pray very hard to keep your distance from the wife. That would really complicate matters, and you have a chance here, to show strength, in spite of "obstacles". As some of the others have said, move ASAP! When the arguing starts, either pray, read the Bible, try to talk to them and tell them how they are affecting everyone else, especially their kids. Remove yourself from the situation, call some other friends and go out, etc. or even take their kids somewhere fun. \nThis couple needs some real help, (Why does she stay wtih him, if he's messing around? ) Suggest that they get help, or temporarily split up, as the kids must be seeing some horrible behavior. Why do they fault you for their problems? If you feel like a time bomb, ready to go off, you gotta get outta there!!!\nGod must have allowed you to be in this situation, so you could do some good here....think of it as a "test or trial"... but do the right thing, stay out of their problems, and find somewhere else to live, as soon as you can.  Best of Luck, and God bless you...

What does it men wen some1 tells u," U look like a girl! " and u r a girl?

Maybe your step aunt said that because you were dressed more feminine than she's used to seeing you. I've had that same problem for years now. Some people around me think that since I'm 22 I should be wearing makeup, skirts, and more tight fitting clothes. I don't like wearing makeup, skirts and dresses~ it's just not my style. But when I have to dress up for something or if I wear my hair different from my usual style then people will tell me I look like a girl or I look girly. It gets annoying hearing it because I am a girl so I'm supposed to look like a girl. But I think it's just because once you put on your makeup and some clothes that probably fit you a bit closer than your previous outfit or what she was used to seeing you wear, that's why she said that. At least that's why people have said it to me

What supports the growth of microorganisms?

depends on what classes of microbe you are reffering to: aerobic (needs oxygen) or anaerobic (oxygen is poison to them). Most all microbes love molasses and high starch items like rice. These substrates offers a wide spectrum of minerals and sugars. The minerals provide "enzyme bridges" for different kinds of microbes to exist "happily" together (even aerobes and anaerobes).

Is franklin Lpoez my true love and soul mate?

To let go is to cherish the past you've been together and realize that its never gonna be the same anymore.. coz its gonna be better!\nLet go and give others that's around and available to you a chance. Give yourself a chance. you owe it to yourself.. \n\nLove is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.

Is there anything that moves faster than the speed of light?

Tachyons are hypothetical particles which travel faster than light locally.  They must have imaginary valued mass to be able to do so, but they have real valued energy and momentum.  Sometimes people imagine that such FTL particles would be impossible to detect but there is no reason to think so.  The shadows and spotlights suffice to show that there is no logic in the suggestion because they can go FTL and still be seen.\n\nNo tachyons have been definitely found and most physicists would doubt their existence.  There was a claim that experiments to measure neutrino mass in Tritium beta decay indicated that they were tachyonic.  It is very doubtful but not entirely ruled out.  Tachyon theories have problems because, apart from the possibility of causality violations, they destabilise the vacuum.  It may be possible to get round such difficulties but then we would not be able to use tachyons for the kind of FTL communication that we would like.\n\nThe truth is that most physicists consider tachyons to be a sign of pathological behaviour in field theories, and the interest in them among the wider public stems mostly from the fact that they are used so often in science fiction.

Once a judgement is won in small claims court, and the person still does not pay the money owed?

Depends on what state you are in, a judgment acts as a lien on their property once recorded in the public record.  Also depending on what state you are in, the Judgment lien can last up to 7 years & after the time is lapsed you can get it recorded again.  You can also do wage garnishments which you should see an attorney for, also you can execute on their property through the Sheriff.  The Court office should have given you info on how to collect on a Judgment after you got the copy from the Court.

Where can I find an inexpensive way to advertise my start-up business locally, in Orange County CA?

Let's start with your target audience.  What products or services do you offer?  Who are you trying to attract?   What is the best way for your audience to become aware about what you sell?  What media do they use?  Yellow pages have become a bad investment due to increased use of the internet.   You may want to start a geo-targeted campaign in Google or a local campaign on Yahoo!.   Make sure you have clear objectives, an advertising or marketing campaign that is easy to understand and offers clear value to your target audience and ensure that you track the results and impacts from any media that you decide to buy or use.

Why do people accept the '6 million jews killed' story when facts contradict the veracity such false claims?

One person claims that " you certainly have to avoid a huge amount of evidence to make such a claim." The same is true in reverse! \n\nMany people are ignorant and believe anything the government tells them. Truth is the holocaust industry is a billion dollar industry that also provides much revenue for the government. If the truth were known it would kill this huge industry of propaganda.\n\nMany people choose to be ignorant and don't know that there education is picked for them and they are trained to learn only what the government wants you to learn. Then comes the internet wereas we can no longer fool our children and they are learning the truth about hoaxes and other lies our government told us. Yet some people refuse to learn or even gather enough intestinal fortitude to even desire to know what is and what is not.\n\nThe links below will show that some people are so ignorant that even while they claim that one would have to avoid a hugh amount of evidence  to make such a claim would also support that they also would have  to avoid a huge amount of evidence to the contrary in order to substantiate such a ridiculous claim.\n\nSome countries are prosecuting people for holocaust denile. during their trial they are not alowed to provide any evidence agaisnt the so-called holocaust or they will be charged again. Once found guilty and denied any real defence they will serve 3 or more years for holocaust denile. Their attornies are not alowed to use anything that debunks the holocaust or they also will be charged with holocaust denile. See how morbidly insane this is! There is literally no defense , once you are charged there is no manner in which you can defend yourself because it is illegal to deny the holocaust. They have a win-win situation and you have the lose-lose situation. \n\n This is morbidly insane and only insane minds would support such a trial. Any government that supports this kind of trial  ceases to be the governemnt of the people and has selected one event over all events in history to protect. It has become a religion of the sick minded and surely will evolve in such a manner in the future that those who perpetrated this insane witch hunt will become the victims of their own insane hoax upon their people they swore to government with honesty.\n\nIf the holocaust is such a true event then it needs no laws to protect it because it will stand on its own merit. TRUTH NEEDS NO LAWS TO PROTECT IT ,ONLY LIARS AND DECIEVERS NEED LAWS TO PROTECT THEM AND THEIR LIES. That is why this needs laws to protect it, because it is flawed and most certainly a hoax.\n\nIf the holocaust were a true event it would defeat any denier in court on its own merit. It can't, therefore it is a lie that needs laws to keep certain people from questioning and investigating it for truth. It is insane, and any who do not thrive for the truth and search the other side of the story insanely follow the insane.\n\nTell me how insane it is that Hitler only wanted an aryan race of people whom are blue eyed and blonde hair when he alone had dark brown eyes and black hair and was half Jew himself. Look it up, don't trust Google but look it up under "HITLERS JEWISH ARMY." If this is true and history shows it to be true then the Jews are responsible for it alone and the burden should be lifted off everyones sholders.\n\nOh here it is (added at a later date) Hitlers Jewish Army :\nhttp://www.kansaspress.ku.edu/righit.html\n\nAlso: http://www.hfienberg.com/kesher/2002/09/were-there-jews-in-hitlers-army-if.html\n\nProof Hitler was a Jew NOT A GERMAN :http://worldwarll.www4.50megs.com/ahlife.htm\n\nThis is documented fact so now we can put it to rest and say that Jews are responsible for the so-called holocaust upon their own people. Shame on them! They did it to themselves , end of story, they owe us all reparations for hoaxing us and taking our much earned money to support their fraud upon America and the rest of the world

In my state  you have the legal right to hire someone to do the repairs or buy the parts and do the repairs yourself and present your landlord with the receipts instead of the rent. But before you do this you must present the problem to your landlord in writing and give him 30 days to respond. After that time you can do the above. You can not just simply refuse to pay the rent.

Occam's razor is a logical principle attributed to the mediaeval philosopher William of Occam (or Ockham).\n\nThe principle states that one should not make more assumptions than the minimum needed. This principle is often called the principle of parsimony. It underlies all scientific modelling and theory building. It admonishes us to choose from a set of otherwise equivalent models of a given phenomenon the simplest one. In any given model, Occam's razor helps us to "shave off" those concepts, variables or constructs that are not really needed to explain the phenomenon. By doing that, developing the model will become much easier, and there is less chance of introducing inconsistencies, ambiguities and redundancies.\nThough the principle may seem rather trivial, it is essential for model building because of what is known as the "underdetermination of theories by data". For a given set of observations or data, there is always an infinite number of possible models explaining those same data. This is because a model normally represents an infinite number of possible cases, of which the observed cases are only a finite subset. The non-observed cases are inferred by postulating general rules covering both actual and potential observations. \n\nFor example, through two data points in a diagram you can always draw a straight line, and induce that all further observations will lie on that line. However, you could also draw an infinite variety of the most complicated curves passing through those same two points, and these curves would fit the empirical data just as well. Only Occam's razor would in this case guide you in choosing the "straight" (i.e. linear) relation as best candidate model. A similar reasoning can be made for n data points lying in any kind of distribution. \n\nOccam's razor is especially important for universal models such as the ones developed in General Systems Theory, mathematics or philosophy, because there the subject domain is of an unlimited complexity. If one starts with too complicated foundations for a theory that potentially encompasses the universe, the chances of getting any manageable model are very slim indeed. Moreover, the principle is sometimes the only remaining guideline when entering domains of such a high level of abstraction that no concrete tests or observations can decide between rival models. In mathematical modelling of systems, the principle can be made more concrete in the form of the principle of uncertainty maximization: from your data, induce that model which minimizes the number of additional assumptions. \n\nThis principle is part of epistemology, and can be motivated by the requirement of maximal simplicity of cognitive models. However, its significance might be extended to metaphysics if it is interpreted as saying that simpler models are more likely to be correct than complex ones, in other words, that "nature" prefers simplicity.


i want to get married to a mexican so how can i bring him back from mexico?

Are you talking about legally? I am going through the same thing with my Sweetheart in South America.

A class action lawsuit is one that is filed by one or more people on behalf of themselves and a larger group of people "who are similarly situated." \n\nExamples might include: all women who have suffered from defective contraceptive devices or breast implants, all those overcharged by a public utility during a particular period, or all those who were underpaid by an employer in violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act. \n\nIf a class action is successful, a period of time is given for those who can prove they fit the class to file claims to participate in the judgment amount. Class actions are difficult and expensive to file and follow through, but the results can be helpful to people who could not afford to carry a suit alone, force businesses that have caused broad damage or have a "public be damned" attitude to change their practices and/or pay for damages, and possibly result in high fees for the winning attorneys. \n\nOften attorneys do not collect a fee at the beginning of a class action suit but might charge a contingent fee (such as 1/3 of the final judgment) which, occasionally, can be millions of dollars.


Is George Bush the right president for America?

George Bush is not right for America, never has been, never will be. He is the worst President we've ever had, bar none.  He should have been impeached long ago for lying to the American People about Iraq. The blood of every dead soldier is on his hands.

How many microscopic organisms (or microscopic things) can fit on the tip of a needle?

To answer this question, you must supply two quantities:\n1) The area of the tip of the needle: let's call this value N.\n2) The area that one of your microscopic entities occupies: let's call this value M.\n\nOnce you have these two numbers, simply divide N by M to get your answer.

Sounds a lot like my parents. I have shown in every way that I am a good girl, I get good grades, I fulfill my family responsibility, I stay out of trouble, and etc. And yet, they still are strict. Of course, this is unfair b/c I believe with my record, trust should be easily given. I talked to them about what I wanted (a boyfriend) and why I deserve it WHILE presenting the reasons why they should, how good of a person I am, and how happy it will make me if they let me, and how sad and upset I will be if they didn't. If they still say no to whatever they are strict with, ask them why. Ask for an explanation, why they do not trsut you, or why they shouldn't let you experience something that may be valuable to your life. \nWe're in America, we need a little more freedom.\n\nGood luck


why the study of sociolinguistics has increased in recent several decades?

Sociolinguistics is a relatively new field which studies the context of the language, not just the dialect.  Because of the importance of communicating directly and through translation, each language is now being studied in more detail.\nFifty years ago there was not much contact between peoples of different part of the world.  Today, with modern communication techniques, including the Internet, the study of sociolinguistics take on a more important role to make sure what we think is being said, is indeed, what was meant by the speaker or writer.\nFor example if someone in America expects to get telephone support for a person hired in India who learned English as a second language, one needs to know much more about the context of the language(s) being spoken.\nCheck out the sites below:

Ha·ma or Ha·mah (hä'mä) \n\nA city of western Syria south-southwest of Aleppo. Settled probably in the Bronze Age, it was a Hittite center in the second millennium B.C. and is frequently mentioned in the Bible as Hamath. Population: 348,000.\n\n\nAfter World War I Hama was made part of the French Levant States League of Nations mandate, and in 1941 it became part of independent Syria. Political insurgency by Islamic groups, particularly the Muslim Brotherhood beginning in the early 1980s culminated in an uprising in February, 1982. Government forces led by the then-president's brother, Rifaat al-Assad, quelled the revolt, but destroyed much of the old part of the city in the process. The town was shelled by the Syrian military, and the estimated deaths numbered more than 20,000 and may have been as high as 30,000 or 40,000. The story is repressed in Syria.


What is the best way to approach a woman?

It depends on who & where she is and what you want. Really there is no best way. What works sometimes may not work all the time. I believe sincerity is a good thing. If you see her in a meeting place and would like to get to know her better, you can simply approach and introduce yourself, tell her you find her attractive and would like to speak with her a little. The ads by the online matching services seem quite compelling. Worth a try.  And .... \nI thank you for your answer and correction of my spelling of 'rhabdomyolysis'. I searched and found a lot of good info. Funny thing is when I searched using 'Labdomyolysis', the three hits I got came from Japanese journals. Funny huh! It reminds me of a funny allegory(?) told by a WWII vet. He said instructions for discerning Chinese (allied) soldiers from Japanese (enemy)soldiers was to holdup a sign showing the words "FAULTLESS FORTRESS" and ask subjects to read it.  Chinese soldiers would say "FAULTLESS FAULTLESS" - while Japanese soldiers would say "FORTRESS FORTRESS". Wait.. wait if they pronounce 'rabdo' as 'labdo', they must be Chinese.  Hmm-m-m.


can a cheating spouse ever be trusted again?

I am sorry to say this as the simple fact that you are asking  means you want to forgive your spouse. In my personal past experience as well as the experiences of my friends (both male and female) evrytime a cheater was taken back, they did it again. Some immediately, some years later, one with the same person (which hurts like you have no idea) and only ONE that has seemingly never done it again, BUT the trust has never been the same so the relationship has never gotten back to what it once was. Good Luck with your decision.

what is the difference between an IRA cd and a conventional cd?

The IRA CD grows tax-deferred or tax-free (if a ROTH) until the IRA is closed out (usually at retirement age 59 1/2 yrs+). The conventional CD is in a taxable account, so earnings/interest are taxable each year.  Both CD's are investments, however they are sitting in different kinds of accounts which dictate when taxes will be paid.

How do you file a motion to schedule a trial in a civil court?

I do not. But if I wanted to handle something like that on my own, the 1st thing I would do, is to call the court involved and ask them how I should proceed.\n\nOtherwise I would just call an attorney and have him/her take care of it.


The rules regarding appeals will vary from state to state and there are different types of appeals too.  In the most basic form, you will need to file a notice of appeal.  In many states, it is up to the appellant to create the record for the court of appeal by designating what documents the trial court clerk should copy and send to the court to the court fo appeal.  The appellant may also need to pay for and arrange for copies of the trial transcript to be availble for the court of appeal.  AFter the record is complete, you must file an opening brief.  The respondent files an opposition brief and you file a reply.  Sometimes the court will hear oral argument.  This is just the BARE basics, so get an attorney right away.

Floaters are caused by the break-down of the gel (vitreous) in the back of the eye.  They are usually very normal and occur more with age.  However, if you have experienced a sudden increase in them (or just started seeing them) or see associated flashes of light, you should see an eye doctor ASAP (optometrist or ophthalmologist - either is fine) to rule out a retinal or vitreous detachment.

I eat a lot of potatoes in a day. Whether is has any bad effects in our health?

too much of any one food can be bad.Potatoes are high in high glycemic carbohydrates.If you are eating mostly potatoes during the day and not getting enough protein,you are risking getting a blood sugar disorder.Try to restrict your intake to one meal a day 3 days a week.You need to rotate your foods to avoid getting imbalances in your body.Make sure you eat enough vegetables,fruit and protein.Too much carbohydrates such as potatoes in the diet is as bad as eating lots of sweets...it can cause diabetes,so you need to scale back.When you do eat potatoes,leave the skins on them,because that is where all the potassium and b-vitamins are...potatoes are also excellent sources of fiber,in case of any kind of muscular-skeletal problems such as arthritis,they are not reccomened.

Best freeware/shareware, to save/convert a DOWNLOADED PDF, so that it can be copied or imported into Excel?

If the document if not locked or protected, I believe you can copy the table or the data from the PDF and paste it into a spreadsheet document.  If it isn't working, you can paste it into Word and then convert to table and then export to Excel.  I don't think it will copy the underlying formulae though.

how do ground wires enhance a car's performance?

Essentially the metal parts of your car form an electrical circuit.  Electricity flows from the negative terminal of your battery, through the frame of your car, and back into the positive terminal of the battery.  In theory cars are not well designed from an electrical standpoint so the ground wires make the flow of electrons through the body of the car easier, which should improve ignition and audio system performance.

What steps can I take to becoming an astronaut?

Continue on a college track curriculum at your high school.  Take a lot of math, science, physics and computer/engineering classes if offered. Do as well as you can. Godo grades matter. Stay active and physically fit.\n\nI think that having a miltary background helps. Look for colleges and universities that offer ROTC programs. Consider Airforce or Navy. If you focus on the needs of space exploration in terms of course of study, and work hard then you can have a chance. Most astrobauts di come from the miltary. Those that do not are scientists thatare top of their field. Combining both will help. Major in physics, enginnering, biochemistry, work hard with an ROTC program, apply to flight school and try to get the skills you will need to apply.\n\nCheck out:\nhttp://spaceflight.nasa.gov/outreach/jobsinfo/astronaut.html\nhttp://spaceflight.nasa.gov/outreach/jobsinfo/astronaut101.html\nhttp://liftoff.msfc.nasa.gov/academy/astronauts/wannabe.html\nhttp://liftoff.msfc.nasa.gov/academy/astronauts/training.html\n\n\nWithout the miltary option, then go the hardcore science route. Look for graduate schools that focus on programs that will lead to future space exploration. MIT, CalTech, and the like. to date, ex Navy/Airforce, teachers, and scientists have made up the vast majority of space faring folks. You want to be a part of one of those groups, knowing that teachers are few and far between to be picked.\nBest of luck to ya.

What are preliminary arrangements I have to do before starting an export business in India?

...If you are not the manufacturer of the products that you intend to export, the first thing you will have to do is to arrange for a Quality Control cell of experienced Specialists - who will test every batch of these products, and certify that they are all of the specified quality, listed in the Buyers' Purchase Order !\nAnd next, you must organise a 2nd/3rd 'back-up' supplier of these goods - who can help complete and despatch each order in good time, in case your original supplier cannot, or does not.\nThese are the 2 areas where most Indian exporters are frequently failing : shipping substandard products, plus not meeting the customers' deadlines !


How do I remove start up programs like alg.exe from windows XP?

ALG.exe is the Application Layer Gateway service of Microsoft Windows.  It is a core process for Microsoft Windows Internet Connection sharing and Internet connection firewall. This program is important for the stable and secure running of your computer and should not be terminated\n\n--x--\n\nif you still wish to terminate it, then do this\nclick on Start -> Run -> msconfig\nThe Microsoft System Configuration Utility should come up. ON that window, click on the tab named "Services". \nThen click on the column heading "Services" to arrange it in alphabetical order (this is to ease your search.)\nALG (Application Layer Gateway Service) should be the first or second service listed if arranged in ascending alphabetic order.\nUncheck that service, Click Apply. Click OK. \nRestart. \nWhen you restart the computer will ask if you want to run the configuration utility again, just click NO.\n\n--hope that helps.


Is it true that the world is becoming immoral?

Morality is a value judgement.  I can't possibly answer your question accurately unless I understand just how you define the term "immoral."\n\nThat said, I think that our race has been pretty consistantly cruel to our fellow men (and especially our women).  Slavery, public burnings, political massacres, etc.  History is full of acts that most would consider immoral, even the Old Testement of the Bible is a virtual textbook of cruel and "immoral" behaviors, justified because the writers were "chosen by God".\n\nMy final answer?  "The world" wasn't moral in the first place, so it isn't really possible for it to become immoral.  Besides, planets don't behave immorally, people do.

I don't really think it's necessary, but I don't think it would hurt you to use it like they say to use it.  \n\nHere's a link to Quackwatch's page on colloidal silver.


The reason the US consumes a disproportionate share of the world's resources is not because we're wasteful, but simply because we have the biggest economy in the world.  Consider the fact that economies of scale also make the US economy one of the most EFFICIENT in the world, in terms of resource input per unit of economic output.\nThe fact that the American economy is so large and so efficient also has beneficial effects on other countries; in other words, we tend to spread the wealth.  Chances are that whatever is manufactured, grown, mined, or designed in the country where you live is exported to the US.\nFeel free to disparage the US and Americans all you please - we don't issue fatwas against everyone who hurts our feelings - but you cannot ignore the facts.\nIf you were to postulate that Americans are living beyond their means by running up incredible, unsustainable amounts of personal, corporate, and government debt, then I would completely agree with you.

Is there ANY WAY to find forclosure/property auctions without paying fees for the info?

Most investors don't have a problem spending, at most, $30 to $50 a month (until cancelled) to get a list of properties where every single one of those properties can be purchased for tens of thousands of dollars less than other houses on the market. By the way, what do you consider 'useless'? If you are unable to purchase the property that you want, it's not the fault of the person who sold you the list. But, if they flat out scam you by providing you with a bogus list, you can always take it up with your credit card company or law enforcement. I suggest that if that amount of money is a problem for you, avoid auctions. Good luck!\n\nSomeone mentioned sites that list foreclosed properties. We are one of them, although we typically charge for those lists because we verify everything ourselves.


How do I check to see if a company name is already registered?

You want to check with the Division of Corporations within your state, however another big concern is to also check existing trademarks with the Unites States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).  Why you may ask?  Even though a company and its name, which are created by the laws of the respective state, may not be in direct conflict with any other company of that state, you may run into problems later with trademark issues of other companies from other states with similar names.  Trademarks are usually registered with the USPTO and they provide a search engine online at uspto.gov .  It is worth checking, to avert future lawsuits of trademark dilution or unsavory business practices with regard to trademark infringement of a company that you did not know had a similar name or logo, albeit you should have known in terms of the law when such trademarks are federally registered.  Remember, companies are created by each state, and your state will only check to see if that company name is registered in the state; so be prudent and check the trademarks of other companies!!!

you can find it in most college organic chemistry textbooks.

An officer formerly attached to a king's household, whose business it was to amuse the court by ludicrous actions and utterances, the absurdity being attested by his motley costume. The king himself being attired with dignity, it took the world some centuries to discover that his own conduct and decrees were sufficiently ridiculous for the amusement not only of his court but of all mankind. The jester was commonly called a fool, but the poets and romancers have ever delighted to represent him as a singularly wise and witty person. In the circus of to-day the melancholy ghost of the court fool effects the dejection of humbler audiences with the same jests wherewith in life he gloomed the marble hall, panged the patrician sense of humor and tapped the tank of royal tears.\n\nThe widow-queen of Portugal\nHad an audacious jester\nWho entered the confessional\nDisguised, and there confessed her.\n\n"Father," she said, "thine ear bend down —\nMy sins are more than scarlet:\nI love my fool — blaspheming clown,\nAnd common, base-born varlet."\n\n"Daughter," the mimic priest replied,\n"That sin, indeed, is awful:\nThe church's pardon is denied\nTo love that is unlawful.\n\n"But since thy stubborn heart will be\nFor him forever pleading,\nThou'dst better make him, by decree,\nA man of birth and breeding."\n\nShe made the fool a duke, in hope\nWith Heaven's taboo to palter;\nThen told a priest, who told the Pope,\nWho damned her from the altar!\n—Barel Dort


NO it doesnt make you gay , but in all honesty I would try it ! WHats the worst that can happen ? And in all honesty do you want to wonder what you are missing out on ? I personally used to feel the same way . I have kissed girls and fooled around a little bit with them and I know I am not gay , I have a wonderful boyfriend who I love sometimes its just fine to be with a girl !


Why do people always want to get in touch with gossip?

Because its such cheesy fun and sooooo satisfying.\n\nWhere were they?  Who were they with?  What were they wearing? ...


I wouldn't answer that type of question if it's asked by someone I don't know that well!  There are somethings I prefer to keep to myself!!!!  If that's the way you feel, don't answer...let them know you don't share that kind of information!  It IS okay to tell them it's none of their business but, there's no need to be rude about it to them.  : )


What is the best way to lower one's resting heart rate if it is too high?

you need to get healthy buy eating healthier foods and cutting out fats and salt intake etc. Make sure you excercise regularly, about 3 times a week, and try to be generally more active like walking to the corner shop instead of driving. Try this for a few weeks and you should notice an improvement.


who can give me used or unsed computer/ laptot  to use  them  and establish  computer  training  for Africans?

I am attempting to give my computer to an organization for missionaries. If I cannot find one, I will let you know. 211 has rarely helped me. However, if they are smart, they will list you with their organization.  Call as many social service organizations that you can to let them know what you want to do. Even Tv stations may be able to give you some help. Keep up the good work.

IS it okay to put websites like rotten.com on web?Does it not come under  violence ?

I don't agree with censoring certain things.  Personally, I don't like rotten.com, so I don't go there.  It's not my thing, but I don't see any reason to take it away from people who enjoy it.  I supervise my child online, so she doesn't see things like this.  But, I do think that there should be some age verification in place for sites like this one.  Most of them rely too much on the honor system for my liking.  \n\nI don't mind adults having access to adult themes and abult subjects online, but I think that parents do need a little help with keeping kids away from it.  The majority of the responsibility falls on me, as a parent; but I'd like some safeguards from the company as well.


does anyone have the new computer windows called windows vista?

< "Mainstream deployment of Vista won't even really begin until 2008, but Microsoft is trying to address issues related to enterprise and consumer issues now," said Gartner analyst Michael Silver. "They'll be careful to craft their announcements to reflect what's definitely going to appear." \n\nOne of Microsoft's Web sites revealed new information about different versions of the company's upcoming operating system, Windows Vista, but was posted prematurely and yanked off the network quickly. \nA page in the company's online help section noted that Microsoft will release eight different editions of the new operating system, although no formal announcements have been made about that plan. \n\nAfter removing the page, Microsoft noted that it would not confirm or deny the information, and will instead continue with its rollout of Vista details, which began months ago and is due to continue until the operating system ships in late 2006. \n\nIndustry Gossip \n\nMedia organizations that perused the Web site before it was removed noted that Microsoft would be offering six different editions of Vista for a U.S. and non-European audience. \n\nOne of the editions, reportedly called Windows Starter 2007, will be a stripped-down version of the system that is likely to be targeted at emerging markets that are trying to fight software piracy. \n\nOther editions supposedly include basic and premium versions for home users, and tailored editions for small businesses and large enterprises. \n\nThe Web site also noted that a higher-end product, named Windows Vista Ultimate, will be geared toward gamers and those who use multimedia extensively. \n\nTwo other variations do not include Windows Media Player, and would be targeted for Europe. The creation of these editions would comply with the European Union's antitrust rulings. \n\nFor more information check the site below.

what does this phrase mean. The doctor said,"It's hard to invent a wheel." What is a wheel in this context?

Im not totally sure about that one but I know that when people say 'you dont have to re-invent the wheel,' it means that you don't have to have a completely new approach or idea every single time. You can adapt ideas and past experiences to aid you in whatever you are doing. The wheel concept is just used because the invention of the wheel seems like and incredibly simple concept, but sometimes those are the hardest to develop. yet it completely changed human lives. I need justa  little more information as to what the situation was.

Is that the worst officiating you have ever seen in a NFL game?

I really have no rooting interest in the winner of this game (big JET fan), But I have to say that Seatle has completely got ripped off at this superbowl. Start wit hte Bogus holding call that takes away 1st and goal at the 2, when if anything it should have been offsides on the steelers, then add in the blocking below the waist call on Hasselback on the same play. Move to rothleisburger's phantom TD, and throw in for goof measure the extremely questionable Offensive interference call that took away another Seahawk TD. The officating wasn't just bad, it was biased.

I am a married Christian women, i suspect/know  that my husband has committed adultery.(see Details)?

If he has shown no repentance you can seperate yourself from him for a while. But if you have no proof you need to be very careful. If you suspect he has done this there are probably other deceitful things going on as well that feed the suspicion. If he has not admitted it you need to focus more on the things that you do know and search yourself for you wrongdoings as well. Ask him if you have wronged him in a way that has made him pull away from you. I highly suggest the book "love and respect" by Dr. Emerson Eggerich. This book has been a marriage saver for many. \n\nIf in fact your husband has been outside of the marriage you have the right to divorce. But Jesus wants us to try to make it work anyway. If we can show forgiveness in that sort of situation then we can begin to understand the forgiveness he has for us.\n\nAre there children involved? You kids are learning how to treat people and handle situations based on how you and your husband do these things. Pretend for a moment that your daughter was in the situation you are in now. What would you advise her to do? Or maybe even pretend that your daughter in law came to you with the suspicion that your son was cheating on her. What would you advice your daughter inlaw do do about your son? Looking at it like this helps put things in perspective. \n\nAlso the most important thing to do is PRAY. Ask God for guidance. Try to pray with your husband. I will pray for you now.\n\nDear Heavenly Father,\n\nLord I bring this situation to you in humble prayer and inquisition. May you shine a light here in the darkness. May you guide this woman on what to do. Let her hear your words and obey. I pray that you convict her husband and bring him to repentance. May this couple see the significance their marriage has. And how marriage is a holy union to represent the Christ/Church relationship. May you wipe away the tears and give strength here. Lord let us remember the forgiveness you have as well as the wrath. Bless this womans search and may her efforts be pleasing in your sight. In Jesus's name. Amen


Why people are more crazy about cricket?

In Pakistan,India,Sri Lanka & Bangladesh there are no sporting alternatives that ordinary people can relate to.These countries have not excelled in the more exciting ball games such as soccer & tennis thanks to lack of infrastructure & governmental support.Yet cricketers continue to emerge from complete obscurity to superstardom.Almost every boy grows up playing cricket.The extreme behaviour pattern of people in these countries also contributes to the craze.

If you are going to rely on eating the cleansing agents, then you'd better be prepared for  two to six months of consistent dietary changes before you'll feel any effect.  \n\nYou can access a number of liver detoxification products through online health stores.  This is probably the best and easiest route, since you live so far from town. \n\nI tell you from experience, it's best to use high quality, guaranteed potency herbal extracts (which are a liquid form to be added to warm water - not pills), rather than solid food for liver cleanse.  It's much more convenient, and quicker.  \n\nI suggest you do a bit of research first.  Brand names of herbal extracts that I've used and recommend are, Gaia Herbs, Herbs Etc, and NOW products.\n\nYou can purchase these brands from many online sites. \n \nAlso, there are some online health assessment questionnaires that you can complete to help you get a better idea of what cleansing agents you should use. \n\n ***Online assessment is in no way a reliable substitution for a health evaluation from a certifed Naturopath or Dietician.  But it is a good research tool to help point you in the right direction.\n\n\nOne permanent, simple life change you can make to help keep your liver healthier is to always add dandelion greens to your salad.  And, make sure to eat raw, fresh leafy green every day.\n\nWishing you bountiful health!\n\nEdited}\nI understand your frustration about wanting a direct answer to your direct question.  The answer is: You can only perform liver cleansing by the 'JUST EATING REGULAR GROCERIES METHOD' with a significant time commitment, and sustained dietary changes.  Hence, the reason why the answers you've received reference some product or another.  \n\nThe quickest way to liver cleansing with only groceries is to buy loads of fresh, organic veggies - including:  garlic, onions, kale, broccoli, brussels sprouts, beets (root and leaves), black radish, red peppers, cabbage, asparagus, wheat grass, leafy greens including dandelion, various sprouts and several small, fresh lemons.  Commit to a weekend juice fast.  Use a juicer (not a blender ... a juicer gets much more of the nutrition close to the skin) to juice down all but the lemon.  Spend Sat & Sun alternating between the fresh vegetable juice, and lemon water using fresh lemon.  \n\nDepending on the state of your liver and its toxicity, you may need to repeat the juice cleansing several times.  It's alot of work to do it this way, that's to say nothing of the expense.  You really might find purchasing high potency liquid herbals from the internet far more convenient, and ulitmately less expensive.  Good luck.


how can you tell if your spouse is cheating?

• A disappearing act around Valentine’s Day.\n\n• An evasive, preoccupied, disinterested, or withdrawn spouse.\n\n• Lack of affection or interest in you.\n\n• Meetings that did not include you on Valentine’s Day.\n\n• Protected cell phone bill or email accounts.\n\n• Frequent computer usage after you retire to bed.\n\n• Spouse who protects the wallet or purse at all costs.\n\n• Your spouse takes the extra set of car keys from you.\n\n• Locked briefcase that seems to have hidden treasures you must not see.\n\n• Suspicious emails you were never intended to see.\n\n•Any purchases of flowers, clothing, lingerie, jewelry not given to you.\n\n•Any unexplainable receipts or charges from restaurants, motels, etc.\n\n•Any blocked ID phone calls followed by short, “quiet” conversations.\n\n•Any calls taken in another room or closet.\n\nIf you observe any of the previously mentioned actions, you should look for the following this month and next:\n\n“Always track phone bills, credit cards statements, emails, pants pockets, purses, checkbooks, briefcases, laptops, and vehicles for receipts, shopping bags, matches, cards, love letters, condom wrappers, Viagra, under garments, change of clothing in the trunk, flower pedals or leaves. I advise suspicious partners to rummage their own trash containers for morsels of truth,” adds Mitchell.

Maybe she is confused about what she is feeling.  She most certainly must feel a loss from the companionship she had, and this may be a way for her to fulfill this need, even at the cost of delaying her own healing process.\n\nWe all need to love and be loved, but we also need to heal after any emotional or psychological devastating pain.  Not allowing ourselves to go through this process of healing only delays our self-improvement, but creates additional complications and possible emotional imbalance.\n\nIt is easier to attach ourselves to another person and get a sence of "quick fix", but it is a false solution.  Eventually, we are left unhappy, lacking in ourselves, still needing to heal.\n\nAfter a break-up, time alone to contemplate who we are and who we will become is the healthiest solution to peace, happiness and balance.

how many millimeters is equal to 0.2 arc seconds?

There is no answer to that question.\n\nMillimeters is a measure of length and arc seconds are a measure of angle. It's like asking how many mm in 30 degrees.\n\nYou need to know the distance to the object or thing that you are measuring to be 0.2 arc seconds across. Then you can use the pythogorean theorem to calculate the length in mm. (As long as the object is reasonably far away, if it is very close then you can't make the approximation of a right triangle.)\n\nadded:\nkirchwey is absolutey correct!\n\nach! its been too many years since I did this stuff!

It's just how it is done.  It's partly so other people might not over hear you talking while you are getting some coffee or food or whatever.

Once you have been presented with everything, then you can go into deliberation and discuss the case.

what is cognitive behavior conceptualization of social phobia?

Social phobia is a form of an anxiety disorder. The medical conceptualization is a problem with brain chemistry, preventing the appropriate messages from getting through. The cognitive behavioral conceptualization is a problem with "stinkin' thinkin'" preventing you from feeling more comfortable due to the unhelpful or irrational thoughts you have (like, "Nobody loves me, everybody hates me!").\n\nA common technique is the experiment: are other people socializing there? If so, logically, there's nothing to be afraid of.\n\nSeek an evaluation for the social phobia. You may want to try cognitive therapy and medication. Be sure to exercise - it's good for your brain as well as your body.


The USA at war against 'Terrorism' is like being at war with a tactic ... not an enemy. Agree or Disagree?

I agree that it is a tactic. I simply can not understand why we have not declared war on Al-Qaeda. The only reason I can dream up is that we are not interested in capturing bin Laden. With a declaration of war against them we could pretty much let all the countries know (including our own country) that we will get each and every member of Al-Qaeda that we can find. It is about time that we get some serious intelligence against these guys and actually "take it to them"\n\nI for one am sick and tired of us screwing around with this issue.\n\nIf I have to hear one more time "We havent been hit since 9/11" I am going to hurt someone. (We hadnt been hit for the eight years before that, but it did happen and it will happen again)

Do you think there is such a thing as being too young for marriage?

Yes, and anyone who has to ask that question is too young to be married. Marriage takes a great deal of very hard work and I'll tip you off to a secret no one tells you before you're married.... Some days the hardest thing in the world is simply not to walk away, to stay and just trust that it will get better. There will be days that you can't remember why you ever even went on a date with this person, let alone agreed to commit to a lifetime with them.\nIf you cannot imagine a day where you don't want your partner anywhere on the same planet, you are not mature enough to get married.

Should text message English be allowed to be acceptable everywhere else?

ABSOLUTELY NOT! Even though I am a teenager and live for text messaging, there are just some cirumstances that are non-negotiable. It is sad enough that we live in a "point and click" world. I believe this has created a fear of networking within people. Therefore, we MUST keep the remaining forms of communication alive and APPROPRIATE. We CANNOT afford for our language to be destroyed by slang.

what makes the "knots' that you get in your muscles? is it fibers or fluids? how does massage work it out?

"Knots", otherwise known as trigger points, are caused initially by a strain on a muscle resulting in a series of chemical reactions that results in ischemia (lack of oxygen to a tissue) which ends up causing an involuntary contraction of the muscle that is sustained for a prolonged period of time. (So in other words, it's muscle fibers)\n\nMassage, or trigger point release is done by adding direct pressure to the trigger point, causing a temporary ischemia which changes the chemical reactions at that point, followed by a flush of blood to the area when the compression is released which flushes out a lot of the cheicals that are causing the trigger point.
