What are symptoms of vicodin withdrawal?  Addiction?

Vicodin is one of the most commonly abused prescription pain medications today. One of the most widely prescribed medications, Vicodin and its related medications, loricet, loritab percodan, and oxycontin are opioid-based pain medications. Vicodin is a derivative of opium, which is also used to manufacture heroin. Individuals with a Vicodin addiction become deeply depressed, and their thinking, attention, and judgement become impaired. Their thoughts dwell on the next high, although they tell themselves they are still taking Vicodin for pain or to avoid the withdrawal symptoms. Individuals with a Vicodin addiction often truly feel physical pain, but it is psychologically produced. \nThe symptoms of Vicodin withdrawal include but are not limited to:\n\nrestlessness \n\nmuscle pain \n\nbone pain \n\ninsomnia \n\ndiarrhea \n\nvomiting \n\ncold flashes \n\ngoose bumps \n\ninvoluntary leg movements \n\nwatery eyes \n\nrunny nose \n\nloss of appetite \n\nirritability \n\npanic \n\nnausea \n\nchills \n\nsweating


What will replace petroleum and plastic in the future?

Plastics may not be replaced.  They recycle well, and there is a lot of oil that cannot be converted into petroleum that can be converted into plastic.  We might find a biological substitute, though.  \n\nWe might even figure out a way to make oil.  Oil is organic material, after all.  We just need to figure out how to speed up the process.  \n\nI believe petroleum will either be replaced by a fuel made from plants (there are cars that run on fuel made from corn), or that they will convert to Hydrogen cells.  The problem with Hydrogen cells is the energy required to produce the Hydrogen.  I believe nuclear fussion reactors will probably be used both for producing electricity and for producing hydrogen fuel.  We may still have to use the fission reactors for a while, but I believe that because of concern about radioactive waste fussion reactors will become fairly common.

Is it better in a relationship to speak your mind, no matter what, or to "bite your tongue"?

You would have to balance it all the time. When there are some truths that have to be told, you would have to be honest. But if there are instances where you would have to bite your tongue, do it. Managing relationships are what we all have been doing ever since we were children - we learn to tell the good lies and the bad truths. \n\nOr was it the other way round? =p

should the government provide education for all of its citizens?

NO!!!!  Ever been in line to get a drivers license?  Actually, quite the opposite.  I believe we need to privatize schools.  Capitalism will only make the product better. Instead of government controlling everything if we allow the private sector to compete for our children and their education they will have no choice but to be better schools.

Yes\n\nFica is comprised of two compenents:\n1.45 % for Medicare and 6.20% for Social Security\n\nThe 1.45% amount has no capped amount. The 6.20% amount is capped. For 2005, the capped amount I believe was 90,000. This means you would stop paying after your gross income hit 90,000. The 1.45% amount you would keep on paying.

Why do communities (in the US) treat our tap water with chlorine?

It's cost effective is likely the main reason, besides the significant public health concern. \n\nWhen chlorine treatment was introduced in the early 1900's diseases like typhoid, cholera, and dysentery were commonly carried in drinking water and chlorination effectively eliminated them. BUT:\nI quote:\n"... the July [1992]  issue of the American Journal of Public Health, researchers found that people who regularly drink tap water containing high levels of chlorinated hydrocarbons have a greater risk of developing bladder and rectal cancers than people who drink unchlorinated water.  The study estimates that about 9% of all bladder and 18% of all rectal cancer cases are associated with long-term consumption of these hydrocarbons.  This amounts to over 20,000 new cases each year!"\n\nEuropean water treatment has largely shifted to ozone and filtration, and they have found it works. Plus the chlorine residuals are about 10 times less than in US water. \n\nYour question is timely for me because my public water company just sent me a letter announcing that the drinking water was above regulatory limits for trihalomethanes-and this is caused by chlorination. Dibromochloromethane is associated with cancer risk of one per million at 0.6 micrograms per liter. That's about the same as 6 parts per billion. Not terrible odds at 1 per million, but I don't like that ppb since the smallest I can measure in the lab is probably about 3 parts per billion. In other words, it’s barely measurable.\n\nAnything like water that one consumes in large quantities daily for year after year deserves some attention. I am often the first to dismiss the latest crazy report about something else that will kill me, but with water it is statistically different. I see no choice but to filter drinking water. What else can you do?  \n\nFluoride? Well, you probably get a fair amount in your toothpaste. It’s normally kept around 1 ppm in drinking water so I doubt it is really that much of a problem. I suspect that using fluoride cuts down on the amount of chlorine needed so it may not always add to costs of treatment.

Where can I learn more about bipolar disorder?

Layperson's Definition of Manic Depression\nOne textbook definition describes bipolar disorder as: "a major affective disorder in which an individual alternates between states of deep depression and extreme elation." This is misleading in that bipolar disorder - also known as manic depression or manic-depressive illness - is much more complicated than just alternating between depression and elation.\nThe American Psychiatric Association's Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (commonly known as DSM-IV because it is in its fourth major edition) says, "Bipolar Disorder is characterized by the occurrence of one or more Major Depressive Episodes accompanied by at least one Manic Episode." So even if you're depressed 99 percent of the time, going through just one manic episode qualifies you for a diagnosis of bipolar disorder according to this definition - but that still leaves out a lot of what manic depression really is.

hOW CAN I GET MY CAR TO GET MORE POWER  BEING HEAVY? ITS A ALTIMA WITH 20" RIMS. HIGH PERFORMANCE BRAKES WORK?

Yeah, sure those "high performance brakes" will give you an excellent boost in horsepower. Wtf? Add a few stickers, and a really large exhaust pipe, and you'll be drag racing before you know it!\n\nAttempt to reduce the weight of the car, and add performance add-on's to the engine and the exhaust system, so the exhaust can flow faster and more efficiently. The "add-ons" will help you produce more power, but weight is an issue.

I agree with that for the most part.  There may be some exceptions to the rule, but I don't know of any.\nI remember a couple of years ago Barbara Streisand having something on her website about how we all should be doing what we can to save the environment and gave examples of things we should be doing.  Things like not using dryers, but hanging our clothes on then line, riding bikes instead of using cars, cutting back on electricity, and heating oil, yada, yada, yada.  Now come on, do you think ol' Babs was out riding her bike to the grocery store, or actually had her clothes out on a clothes line?  Yeah right.

why people are not happy in marrige, and are looking for love ...?

Some times because they weren't in 'love' when they married. \n  But 'most' of the time I think, they both let the closeness slip away, and though they still love the person they married, there's no excitement there. So they meet someone else that's exciting and fun, and ruin what they could've saved, if they'd BOTH tried.


With all the interest in Black History,why hasn't anyone mentioned the Black Cofederate Soldiers?

And while we are at it, German American Month and Korean American Month for my bestfriend.  And I have friends from India so they need their own month too.  Who should I contact?

A gas refrigerator uses ammonia as the coolant, and it uses water, ammonia and hydrogen gas to create a continuous cycle for the ammonia. The refrigerator has five main parts: \n\nGenerator - generates ammonia gas \nSeparator - separates ammonia gas from water \nCondenser - where hot ammonia gas is cooled and condensed to create liquid ammonia \nEvaporator - where liquid ammonia evaporates to create cold temperatures inside the refrigerator \nAbsorber - absorbs the ammonia gas in water \n\nThe cycle works like this: \n1. Heat is applied to the generator. The heat comes from burning something like gas, propane or kerosene. \n2.  In the generator is a solution of ammonia and water. The heat raises the temperature of the solution to the boiling point of the ammonia. \n3.  The boiling solution flows to the separator. In the separator, the water separates from the ammonia gas. \n4.  The ammonia gas flows upward to the condenser. The condenser is composed of metal coils and fins that allow the ammonia gas to dissipate its heat and condense into a liquid. \n5.  The liquid ammonia makes its way to the evaporator, where it mixes with hydrogen gas and evaporates, producing cold temperatures inside the refrigerator. \n6.  The ammonia and hydrogen gases flow to the absorber. Here, the water that has collected in the separator is mixed with the ammonia and hydrogen gases. \n7.  The ammonia forms a solution with the water and releases the hydrogen gas, which flows back to the evaporator. The ammonia-and-water solution flows toward the generator to repeat the cycle.

Is it more beneficial for weight loss to work out with weights or to run @ a moderate pace?

If you can, try to fit both into your routine. Running burns calories while you exercise, and is good for your heart. Weight lifting will burn more calories in the long run, though. While you do not burn as much as running does while your exercising, it does add more muscle, which increases your metabolism, which burns more calories at rest.


What is the most efficient method of extracting gold from gold plated objects?

Most efficient? If you don't have a lab, then I would assume just doing your best at grinding off the top layer, and trying to melt the shreddings down into a >70% gold alloy. Since gold's melting point is OVER 1000 degrees Celsius, I suppose your best bet is to heat the grindings as much as possible, and then pounding them together into a single mass (like a black-smith...or 'gold-smith'). But you have to realize HOW LITTLE gold is actually on there. The layer is so thin...sometimes merely 2-3 micrometers. You're gonna get a lot of impurities, such as nickel and copper. Gold-plating is usually done on copper or silver; and in the case of copper, a thin layer of nickel is placed below the gold. And since the melting point of nickel isn't that far from that of gold, and copper's is almost EXACTLY that of gold's, you're gonna get a random mixture of crap. I imagine the process is more trouble than it's worth. I'd just go buy gold from alfa aesar or somewhere like that for cheap-as-free.

PCI has been a local interconnect technology of choice in communications and embedded applications over the last decade. Today's applications demand higher bandwidths that push the limits of parallel bus architecture. PCI Express is a high-bandwidth, low pin count, serial, interconnect technology that also maintains software compatibility with existing PCI infrastructure, and is uniquely positioned as the logical interconnect technology for products being developed today. \n\nPCI Express in communications and embedded applications offers the following benefits that utilize the trends of convergence and modularity.  \n \n Advanced switching. Advanced Switching* based on PCI Express Architecture addresses the switch fabric needs of modular communications and embedded hardware platforms as a standard, open fabric technology that includes congestion management, protocol agnostic switching, broadcast/multicast support while reusing the physical and link layers of PCI Express. \n \n Reuse of common interconnects. The broad adoption of PCI Express in desktop and enterprise market segments enables convergence through the re-use of a common interconnect technology. \n \n Economies of scale. As this common interconnect, PCI Express in communications and embedded will benefit from lower costs, a stronger ecosystem and the widespread interoperability associated with the large volumes from the compute and enterprise market segments. \n \n \nIntel, as the number one silicon provider for both the communications/embedded, computing and enterprise industries, is committed to aligning all of our compute and communications silicon, platforms, solutions and ecosystem enabling with PCI Express.

How do I get browser tabs across the top of my home page tab 1 = one web site, etc?

The short answer is: they don't.  Many people go through life lying to others and some of these lies end up not being caught.  But when it comes down to it lies won't hold up to intensive investigation and the light of truth.\n\nIf someone has reason to suspect a fact or is curious enough they will eventually be able to find out any mistake, omission or outright lie as evidenced by these proverbs from around the world:\n\nlies walk on short legs.  (german)\none can't stop the spreading of lies with more of them.\na liar is not to be believed, even when he speaks the truth.\n\nhope this helps.


In your ideal government, what restrictions (if any) would you place on freedom of speech?

I would support the restrictions on screaming fire, etc. in a crowded theater. Such language does not really communicate any idea, but is only meant to hurt. It is basically an assault with words. It has no place in my ideal government.\nAs far as offending religions i think we should have the right to do that. It may be hurtful, but not all speech is flattering. We should have the right to make offensive cartoons. How people react to such speech is what should be dealt with, but the speech itself is not the problem.\nAlthough questioning tragedies like the holocaust seems insane, its not something we should regulate. Who knows how far it could be taken. It could evolve into not questioning the politics of a particular president. We should always have the right to evaluate history even if we're not very good at it.\nPornographic images are not pleasing to all people, but it mostly boils down to a moral question that is highly subjective. People who enjoy pornography should have every right to enjoy it. We can't make judgment on what type of media is "good" and what is "bad." pornography would be welcome in my ideal government.\nFinally, hate speech. That's a tough one because like shouting out "fire", hate speech only strives to hurt and offend. Does it also mean to communicate? to spread ideas? i'm not sure. I don't really completely understand the intentions of those who make hate speech. I know i disagree with them, but that's not where i stop my analysis. This issue is more ambiguous to me than the others, but still my gut tells me that i would allow it in my own government. I think most of society doesn't really have an open ear to hate speech anyways. If people must make hateful comments they can go ahead and do it. Society will probably ostracize them anyways.


do u think it's scary when someone loves u to much?

Yeah, cause you never know what going on in their mind. Next thing you know, they get really possessive...then they go psyco on you. So you have to be really careful. But then there's the kind of love that scares you cause you're afraid to love them back for the fear of getting hurt. So, good luck...

Two of the hotest prospects that most people outside of boxing have not heard about is Samuel Peter in the heavy weight division.  He has a great work ethic and has exceptional feet for a big man.  Which means he can give you different looks while still landing some heavy shots.  I think by the end of next year alot of people will know about him.  There is also a real young guy named Raymond Biggs Jr. that is showing a lot of promise and is starting to turn some heads in the boxing world.  I would keep an eye on both of them because they both look like they have the making of future champions.

what is short term strategic decision and what is long term strategic decision?

Short term -- something involving up to the next 12 months.\n\nLong term -- something involving beyond the next 12 months.\n\nAs far as strategy goes, its difficult to say that there are really any truly strategic decisions that are focused on the short-term.  Strategy typically is for a longer period of time.  A short term strategic decision would be one that is focused on getting you/your business over a hump in the short term, but will probably not be followed thru with unless the long term implications are beneficial.

Does anti-spyware have to be run while offline or can it be done while online?

It usually CAN be run while online, but that's a little like cutting yourself and bandaging the cut up at the same time - you leave yourself open for more infection that way. The BEST you can do is disconnect first, though it's not IMPOSSIBLE to run anti-spyware online.


how long do you think manchester utd will need to be back on top again and who would make this happen?

I think they will need a couple of years to be back on top again, they might become better and better in the next few years, but Chelsea are looking very good right now and i think their form will continue like this for a few years.\nManchester United have to get some experienced players in midfield that have a very good playmaking ability, someone like Gerrard, Lampard, Totti, and Ronaldinho. They should also find a solid defensive midfielder with a leader's character to replace Roy Keane, it seems that the main problem for Man Utd after Roy Keane's departure is their lack of confidence, their defense isn't looking confident anymore even though they are all world class, the young midfielders like Christiano Ronaldo have lost their confidence, even Rudd Van. N  have lost some of his touch. Sir Alex Ferguson should be stricter with his players like he was before and give them the motivation he used to give to his players back in the old days, he must keep the media away from his players. They should do some successful transfers this summer in order to reinforce their team next year so they would compete with Chelsea’s consistency and in the Champions league

Which provides more cooling for a Styrofoam cooler,  1 with 10 lb of ice at 00C or one with 10 lb of ice water

The ice water will cool quicker.  The reason being, that the water will cover the entire surface area that you are trying to cool.  \n\nThat being said, it also won't last as long because it also has more surface area for the cooling to escape.

Do you think our liberty comes from Jesus Christ?

Our country was founded by men or different beliefs mostly Christian, who kept slaves and allowed no one to vote except for white male landowners.  Their ideas of freedom came mostly from Scottish and English philosophers some of whom were explicitly athiestic and none of whom based their philosophy on Biblical precepts.\n\nSo no.\n\nJust wondering why you had to ask this twice.

Why do men feel they can not live without sex?

The reason why men cannot live without sex is probably because we have a high sex drive. And maybe there are some guys out there who have a higher sex drives than others.

You can go with a free web host, then later upgrade to a paying account if you need more features. This is a good option, because free web hosts often offer very easy to use programs and interfaces that make it a snap to build your own web site, even if you don't know much about programming [HTML, javascript, etc]. Some will even give you cool graphics and templates to start you off with. You can also go with a fee-based host as well. Just make sure-- if you're totally new to web page building-- that whichever one you eventually choose has an easy program you can use to build your site with.\n\nI have to warn you, though, that based on your content [nudity], you might run into a little trouble setting up an account. This is because many web hosts are very strict about the type of content they will host. So before you sign up with any host, make sure you read its Terms of Service to make sure your photos are acceptable, or you might find yourself in violation and have your site revoked one day down the line.


Need ideas What to give my son for his 21st birthday, within reason?

I don't know what you consider in reason, but here are some top young men favorites-\n(if he likes book) a gift cert. to barnes&nobles\nIpod\nlaptop computer\npay for bartending college tuition (usually around $50, he can drink now, and its fun for him to know how to make drinks and the courses teach you drinking responsibility and the law. He'll just enjoy it)\nplayboy subscription (dont know what kind of person he is)\nGet a photo album together of his life and his family. kinda cheesy, but he may appreciate it and see in this difficult age of his life that his parent still loves him. use it as a coming of age where he can see his transition from child to friend of parent. oddly enough, most men need something like this to officially feel like an "adult" and they tend to make better decisions when they are shown things like this.

i have been experiencing pressure in my right ear and pressure on the front part of my neck. ?tmj?

No, this would not be TMJ.  The right ear pressure may be congestion and the neck pressure could be swollen glands.  Or not, but TMJ won't cause either of these.\n\nTMJ is a problem with the joint that connects the jaw bone to your skull at the temple.  You are most likely going to notice TMJ as headaches in the temples (in front and just above your ears), popping or even feeling like the jaw is catching on something when you try to open your mouth wide.

thre words in the english dictionary that end in ...gry?

Perhaps the answer to the original version of the puzzle was meagry or aggry (as in "aggry bead"). \nThere are over 100 obsolete words that end in "-gry" (see below), and these two were in use until fairly recently.\nThis is the (presumed) original version of the puzzle from 1975. The possible answers (if obsolete words, names, and hyphenated compounds of "angry" and "hungry" are allowed) are plentiful. Most of the 124 listed below were in the 1933 edition of the Oxford English Dictionary, and all have appeared in some major dictionary of English:\n\n\naffect-hungry fire-angry MacLoingry Seagry \naggry Gagry mad-angry self-angry \nAgry girl-hungry mad-hungry selfe-angry \nahungry gonagry magry sensation-hungry \nair-hungry gry malgry sex-angry \nanhungry haegry man-hungry sex-hungry \nBadagry half-angry managry Shchigry \nBallingry hangry mannagry shiggry \nbegry heart-angry Margry Shtchigry \nbewgry heart-hungry maugry sight-hungry \nboroughmongry higry pigry mawgry skugry \nbowgry hogry meagry Sygry \nbraggry hogrymogry meat-hungry Tangry \nBugry hongry menagry Tchangry \nChockpugry hound-hungry messagry Tchigry \nCogry houngry music-hungry tear-angry \ncony-gry huggrymuggry nangry th'angry \nconyngry hund-hungry overangry tike-hungry \ncottagry Hungry Bungry Pelegry Tingry \nCroftangry hwngry Pingry toggry \ndiamond-hungry iggry Podagry ulgry \ndog-hungry Jagry Pongry unangry \ndogge-hungry job-hungry pottingry vergry \nDshagry kaingry power-hungry Vigry \nDzagry land-hungry profit-hungry vngry \neard-hungry Langry puggry war-hungry \nEchanuggry leather-hungry pugry Wigry \nEgry ledderhungry red-angry wind-hungry \neuer-angry life-hungry rungry yeard-hungry \never-angry Lisnagry scavengry yird-hungry \nfenegry losengry Schtschigry Ymagry \n\nSince there is no longer a real answer to this, modern versions of the puzzle have turned from being puzzles to being riddles.

what are the ecological problem in rainforests?

Tropical and temperate rain forests have been subjected to heavy logging and agricultural clearance throughout the 20th century and the area covered by rainforests around the world is rapidly shrinking. It is estimated that the rainforest was reduced by about 58,000 km² annually in the 1990s. Rainforests used to cover 14% of the Earth's surface. This percentage is now down to 6% and it is estimated by some that the remaining natural rainforests could disappear within 40 years (mid-21st century). Biologists have estimated that large numbers of species are being driven to extinction, possibly more than 50,000 a year, due to the removal of habitat with destruction of the rain forests. Protection and regeneration of the rainforests is a key goal of many environmental charities and organisations, including EcologyFund and the Nature Conservancy.

You can try eating 7 times a day in very small portions. Say every 3 hours or so and it shouldn't matter what you eat. This way your body uses everything it needs from what you've eaten. There will be nothing left to turn into body fat as with eating 3 larger meals a day. Drink plenty of water in between. Good luck.

In Superman IV, if Lex Luthor could make Nuclear Man, why didn't he just clone dogs?

The short answer to this question is that pathologically Lex Luthor desires to be the most powerful man in the world.  He can not accomplish this feat while Superman lives, thus he needs to kill the competition.  Much like many serial killers, politicians, or corporate big wigs (a fine line), their need for power can not be satiated and always left hungry for more.  Besides, I really don't feel like watching a movie about Superman rescuing cats from trees, even though that may have been a better 2 hours spent then Superman IV to begin with.

Who is the worst president in the last 50 years?  I want 5 reasons why--?

Our current president King george the arrogant.\n\n1) He had his brother in the state of florida fix the election for him. turning away black voters and denying absentee ballots.\n\n2) He created intelligence to suit his needs and took us from a war on terrorists in afganistan to a war for oil in Iraq.\n\n3) He took over as president with a surplus in the billions and pissed it ways and then spent our children into a record high deficit, all of which could have funded the social security program for countless years (if they would all keep their grubby little paws off of it)\n\n4) He wipes his A S S with the constitution daily. making up his own rules and laws to suit his purposes. There are laws in place that give warrentless wire taps fore any emergency for up to 72m hours before they have to go before the courts for approval....that means that the only reason they would have a problem with that is that they know the reasons they have for these wire taps would never be approved by any courts.\n\n5) and last but not least...he is a drunk driving, cocaine addicted, bible beating, draft dodging, awol skipping, pot smoking, lying cheat their own mother out of a buck, steal candy from a baby loser wanna be conservative who is fist fuc*ing our country into the gutter.

Adding wireless to my non-wireless DSL modem - what do I need?

You can connect a wireless router to a DSL modem in order to accomplish this.  I've used a Netgear router successfully for this that I purchased for a steal on ebay.  If you go this route, decide between 802.11b and 802.11g by weighing cost against desired speed.  802.11b routers are cheaper and offer the same distance, but a limited speed output.  802.11g routers are a new technology and are more expensive but offer a faster connection speed to your modem, and consequently to the internet.\n\nAnother alternative if you've been a loyal customer of a service like Verizon DSL for a year or more is to ask them for one of their upgraded combo modem/routers that they've been handing out to new customers for the past year.  My father successfully accomplished this by calling and mentioning that he was growing more interested in switching to a cable internet service because of speed limitations.  They seem pretty prone to throwing technology at a potential lost customer in attempts to appease them.

if  God is omnipresent and Omnipotent then why there is the existence of Devil?

The devil is only present in ourselves, our intentions and the choices that we make. Since we were created with freedom of choice, it is too easy to become wrapped up in our own lives and surroundings. We often tend to hold our own intentions more relevent than gods intentions. We dont always make the right choices. I think god allows this because he wants us to learn for ourselves what is right.

I don't like to be in crowded places, how do i meet new people?

Online. If you want to meet people just for the sake of friendships - meeting people online is perhaps the best bet. For instance, on Yahoo! Answers or in any of the Yahoo! Chatrooms that Dr. Checko suggested. You can always meet new people in online forums, and since Answers works the same way like a forum - you can also meet new people here! Isn't that great!?\n\nGet a 360° account and start connecting with people you like. Eventually, you'll have a bunch of friends you can communicate with. I did that and now I'm building a friend list on my 360° account.

Remember the DVD Left Behind?  What would you do in that situation knowing that it will happen for real?

I'm a Christian, so hopefully if it happenned for real I'd be one of the ones raptured up.  If not, I'd go directly to my church, figuring I'd lost my salvation, and I would pray to accept Jesus again!

You haven't pointed out which version of Visual Studio you use but here are the choises:\n\nVB6 - Stop\nVB7 and above - System.Diagnostics.Debugger.Launch()\n\nThis method is only needed in specific cases when you cannot start the application by the studio (it need to be closed). When these commands are executed, a debugger will be launched even your studio is closed. They are equivalent to asm { int 3; } Otherwise you can just insert a breakpoint in your source and start the application :)


what are some describing words that decribe how many of something?

Just off the top of my head... quantity, count, number, score, units, more, many, most, least, less, fewer, fewest, greater, greatest.\n\nThere are many others.\n\nUpdate: In your update of "Three boys row on the lake", "three" would be considered an adjective, but it wouldn't be considered descriptive. Using any of the adjectives any of us have listed would make it descriptive.

Well, I can answer this without using your email.  Yahoo is known for blocking spam and it's high virus protection.  What it doesn't do is block emails from personal computers like the one you got.

i do not know that my licence was suspended  but i got arrested?

What town do you live in? Last I checked, the state will write you a letter telling you that your license is being suspended and where to go (Most times you have to go to the DMV) to appeal such a decision. There had to have been a legitimate reason for the license to be suspended.

Is there anyone who is really good at precalculus?


how can you tell if your husband is cheating with someone elses?

His behavior changes, he may act happier (more chipper!) than normal, may bring you flowers for no reason (out of guilt, I guess) He could go the other way also and seem more distant. Spending more time away from home. Taking too long to go to the store. Working later than normal. Not wanting to have sex as often.\n\nIf the phone rings and hangs up when you answer, or rings once then stops and all of the sudden then he either has to leave to the store for a pack or cigs or a can of skoal or goes into a different room to make a private call. He also may hide in the bathroom. So if you think he is in there talking to himself.. he is NOT! If he is out with his guy friends he may go into the bathroom of the restaurant to call you instead of talking to you in front of his supposed guy friends.\n\nIf he dresses up to just do errands, puts on cologne. Spending more time in the bathroom. Buying brand new underwear is another sign, men usually wait until their underwear have holes and are falling apart before they will buy new ones.lol.\n\nAnother sign is wanting to take a shower immediately after coming home. Make sure you are awake and waiting for him at the door! Or if he is out late with the guys, he may take a shower before he wakes you. So smell him the first chance you get!!! They could also have unusual stains in their underwear, different pubic hairs may be stuck to the inside so check before washing. Check his car for different cigarette butts or anything that shouldn't be there.

How much time do we really have left and should I really be worried about the future or is doom enevitable????

Live every day as if it is your last. Leave no regrets. Do what you can in your very small life to make the future a better prospect. Do not be a doom sayer as this leads to depression. Never give up and always smile no matter what.


15 yr old son who is a nice guy but is disruptive and a class clown.  How do I help solve this prob?

Ask him why he acts the way he does.  He might be acting this way because his fellow peers are encouraging him, or he likes the response he gets from others. Make a conscious effort to listen to his explanation. Allow him to express himself to you without interrupting him. This will allow him to feel as if he is really being heard out. Then respond by letting him know why he shouldn't carry out in that manner. Explain the trouble he is causing in the classroom. Explain the consequences and possible consequences of his actions. Explain that he should find a different time to joke around. A time in which his learning and the learning of others won't be impaired or disrupted. Give him some possible solutions as to when it would be better for him to joke. For example, possibly during lunch or after school.\n\nOn a side note, you might want to ask how he feels about his current living circumstances. Is he acting out for attention? Is he upset about something in the home or maybe something else going on at school or in his life that is causing him to lash out in a disruptive manner at school? \n\nWhen one is 15 there are hormonal, psychological, physical, and other changes going on. There is also all sorts of peer pressure. Not only from his peers, but from the faculty and the family. Again, so try to get to the root of his actions and work it out from there. Don't be on the offensive and don't be defensive he says he feels you are doing something wrong. Just nodd your head and listen to him. Then explain how you feel. Remember he is aware that you are his parent and that you are in charge. There's no need to beat him over the head with that point. Hopefully you will both come to a clarification as to what needs to be done. If you seem to still have problems then I suggest seeking a counselor who can possibly give you more insight. Good luck. :)


Is Technology Going to Save us From an Energy Crisis?

Technology is certainly going to help - for example, there are tests now of fusion power (this doesn't generate as much dangerous radioactive waste that current fission-based nuclear reactors do). But this won't be enough by itself - people need to learn to use less energy, because if we don't reduce the need, there will be a crisis. "Though accounting for only 5 percent of the world's population, Americans consume 26 percent of the world's energy. (American Almanac)"

But you put it so perfectly. God would never torture or codemn us for our beliefs. Why do we do it to each other?? *sigh*


If you are still employed by the plan sponsor your withdrawal options may be limited. Read the plan summary you should have received or talk to your HR person. You might be able to take a loan from your account, but it must be repaid within 5 years.\n\nIf the 401k is from a previous employer, then your options are greater. You can roll the account over into a Traditional IRA. This transaction does not trigger any taxation. \nIf you are over 59.5 years old, you can withdraw money from the account. Any amount withdrawn will be taxable to you as income.\nIf you are not over 59.5 and you withdraw money not only will you pay taxes on the amount you withdraw but you will also pay a penalty of 10% of the withdrawn amount.\n\nIf you do not need the money to cover basic living expenses right now, do yourself a favor and roll the money over into an IRA. Work with a financial planner in your area if you would like help deciding upon an appropriate investment strategy.


Is there any reaction between INTERMEDIATE metals?

Do you mean "transition" metals?  I guess you could call them intermediate metals, I have just never heard anyone use that term.\n\nTransition [intermediate] metals tend to develop positive charges when ionized.  Two positively charged ions will repell eachother, there is not too good of a chance they will interact, much less bond.

She was a young girl who lived in hiding in Holland during World War 2.  Neighbors informed the Nazis on her and her family, and the other people in hiding with them, and they - togethere with the non-Jews who were hiding them - were deported to a death camp, where Anne and almost all the other people who were hiding were murdered.  After they were taken to the concentration camp, someone (I think a woman who had helped hide them) found Anne's diary, which the Nazis failed to destroy when they raided the hiding-spot. Anne's father survived, as I think did the 2 non-Jewish men who helped hide the Jews.  He decided to publish Anne's diary.  It has been translated to many languages, and I believe that it's the second most published book in the world, after the Bible.

what's the best firewall you suggest for lan environment ?

Depending upon your needs, the options range from quite simple to substantially more complex. If you just need a simple host-based software firewall, there are a number of good ones. Good free firewalls I've used include Zone Alarm, Sygate, Kerio, Outpost, and Ghostwall. If you're not opposed to getting your hands a little dirty with networking, I prefer wipfw. On my Windows boxes wipfw is the only firewall I use. Very effective, but definitely not for the timid. If you're using Linux, the iptables firewall is definitely the route to go. If your needs are a little more complex and you have an old computer lying around, you can install something like Smoothwall or IPCop and use the old PC as your firewall. I've used both and they work very well. They're both relatively easy to setup, but you'll definitely want to follow one of the step-by-step guides the first time you do it.


The fact that India is doing better than China in the field of IT, will eventually, put India at a higher...?

Not really, there are certain aspect that India must achieve. Have you read Business Week about india economic growth ? There are certain level that India must achieve before India can be higher than China, e.g the transportation and the infrastructure, also Indian people should work in India instead of going out to deliver their knowledge. But in terms of IT, India is much better. Now, China and India in compete in every aspect and world knows about it.

Isn't it ironic that the US & the UK were allied with Stalin (the world's greatest murderer) in WW2?

Short answer:  yes, it is very ironic.  Also very sad, in that it probably was necessary in order to defeat the Nazis.  But Germany paid for its sins in the Berlin Wall and the social, economic and ecological devastation of the eastern portion, and is only now recovering.  I wish Germany well: modern Germans are no more to blame for the Nazis than modern Russians are to blame for the Soviet Union.  In both cases, it was good people being forced to submit to bad leaders.

why we feel hot if we are kept at a temp. of 36 degree, as our body temp. is 37degr, we should feel cool but?

Because the metabolic processes in the body are constantly generating heat.  Your normal state requires an efflux of heat in order to stay cool, because as you generate heat, you need to perspire it away.  At 36 degrees, the driving force is too small to carry heat away from you as quickly as you generate it.  In the absence of a fan, the air directly around you becomes humid from your perspiration, so you need a fan to blow away the warm/moist air around you and replace it with dry/cool air.  The drier the air around you, the more sweat will evaporate, and the evaporation carries heat away with it.

what significant happened during the 1300's in the Muslim Empire?

During a civil war in 1348, Emperor John Cantacuzenus allowed the Turks to cross the Dardanelles into Greece. The gates to Europe, so long defended by Constantinople, were now opened to a powerful Muslim empire, and waves of Turks crossed over. By the end of the 14th century, they had conquered all of Bulgaria and most of Greece and had surrounded Constantinople. The rapid expansion of the Turks into Christian Europe changed the nature of the Eastern Crusades. No longer aimed at conquering faraway Palestine, they became desperate attempts to defend Europe itself.

Cutiangel,\n\nAfter reading your question, it is clear that neither you nor these girls are truly friends with each other.  Cut your losses now, I understand that even though these girls are not your “true friends” it will be difficult to end the “friendships.”  However, by finding people with good hearts, that have things in common with you, you will also find true friendships that can last a lifetime.\n\nI would also like to share with you a few quotes about friendship that I feel are inspiring:\n\n"True friendship multiplies the good in life and divides its evils.  Strive to have friends, for life without friends is like life on a desert island…. to find one real friend in a lifetime is good fortune; to keep him is a blessing."\n\n“There’s a miracle of friendship that dwells within the heart, and you don’t know how it happens, or where it gets its start, but the happiness it brings you always gives a special lift.  And you realize that friendship is God’s most perfect gift.”\n\n"A true friend knows your weaknesses but shows you your strengths; feels your fears but fortifies your faith; sees your anxieties but frees your spirit; recognizes your disabilities but emphasizes your possibilities."\n\nGood luck and Warmest Wishes,\nDeeDee_NY

Where did the idea of Easter Sunday come from?

Western Christianity\nIn Western Christianity, Easter marks the end of the forty days of Lent, a period of fasting and penitence in preparation for Easter which begins on Ash Wednesday and ends at Easter Sunday.\n\nThe week before Easter is very special in the Christian tradition: the Sunday before is Palm Sunday, and the last three days before Easter are Maundy Thursday or Holy Thursday, Good Friday and Holy Saturday (sometimes referred to as Silent Saturday). Palm Sunday, Maundy Thursday and Good Friday respectively commemorate Jesus' entry in Jerusalem, the Last Supper and the Crucifixion. Holy Thursday, Good Friday, and Holy Saturday are sometimes referred to as the Easter Triduum (Latin for "Three Days"). In some countries, Easter lasts two days, with the second called "Easter Monday". Many churches start celebrating Easter late in the evening of Holy Saturday at a service called the Easter Vigil.\n\nEastertide, the season of Easter, begins on Easter Sunday and lasts until the day of Pentecost, seven weeks later.\n\n\nEastern Christianity\nIn Eastern Christianity, preparations begin with Great Lent. Following the fifth Sunday of Great Lent is Palm Week, which ends with Lazarus Saturday. Lazarus Saturday officially brings Great Lent to a close, although the fast continues for the following week. After Lazarus Saturday comes Palm Sunday, Holy Week, and finally Easter itself, or Pascha (Πάσχα), and the fast is broken immediately after the Divine Liturgy. Easter is immediately followed by Bright Week, during which there is no fasting, even on Wednesday and Friday.\n\nThe Paschal Divine Liturgy generally takes place around midnight, into the early morning of Pascha. Placing the Paschal Divine Liturgy at midnight guarantees that no Divine Liturgy will come earlier in the morning, ensuring its place as the pre-eminent "Feast of Feasts" in the liturgical year.

Can some explain the P/E (price to earning) ratio? What information can you gather from this number?

P/E is the price of a stock compared to the earnings per share.  It is used as a valuation tool to figure out if a company is undervalued or overvalued.  Usually the faster a company is growing their earnings and revenues, the higher the p/e is going to be (for example GOOG).\n\nA good way to use P/E to discover value in selecting stocks is to first start with a sector.  Find a sector that is in favor.  Look up the average P/E for that sector.  Different sectors will have different P/E ratios.  You have to compare apples to apples.  Look up which companies are growing the fastest and that have the most promise in that sector and then compare their P/E ratios to the sectors P/E ratio.  All other things being equal the company that is growing faster than the sector with a P/E less than the sector would be considered undervalued and you might considering buying it.

'Terrorism is wrong', but do we notice that our victory in the American Revolution was base on it?

that wasn't terrorism, that was guellia war fare...some thing that the ameriacn military needs to "re-learn". because that is why we sucked sso bad in vietnam, & that is what is happening to our troops now in iraq. the modern idea of terrorism, is to blow $hit up, & kill as many people as possible while doing it. back then, in the 1700's, the worst thing done was just throwcrates of tea in to the harbor. a loss of product, thus a loss of wages, but no major loss of life!

how to un-nerd a  nerd and make him socialable?

Here's a saying to take into consideration... You can take boy out of the nerd, but you can't take the nerd out of the boy. Meaning, you can change the clothes and appearance and mannerisms, but deep down, you are who you are and he'll always be a bid of a nerd. To make him socialable, get around a bunch of people and encourage him to talk to people. Don't just throw him to the lions, work it slowly. Once they get confortable around people, they'll be more willing to be socialable. However, if it's his personality to be more intoverted...it's not going to happen overnight. Good Luck!!!

That is, other people, say a mile away from you, will see the rainbow shifted from where you see it, and that's because the rainbow's apparent direction is relative to the sun's rays that are near you.  But is this the answer to your question?  Are you asking why they're not thin? straight?  Give us something, Bea.


Who is Nolte Damis? and what did he predict that came true?

Some say Nostradamus predicted a king dieing in a josting match sometime during his life in the 16th century.  This gave him some fame as a profit.  Some of believers favorite alleged predictions concern 3 tyrants.  Napoleon being the first with Hitler being the second.   They say he predicted war in Germany with most armies against the, "Hister."  The third they say has yet to emerge.  Which makes it fun to speculate.  They will always wonder about the current bad guys in the news.  The third tyrant is suppose to where a blue turban.  Hmmmm, I wonder what color of turban Osama Bin Ladin has been whereing lately.  As to the, "hister," quote, it is said that the danube river use to be called the, "Ister."  Their is a lot of sceptisism involving this so called profit.  His predictions are so vague, about any event could be fit into almost any prediction.  Penn of Penn and Teller once asked, "where were Nostradomus people on 9/10?"  One reasuring prediction is that the end of the world won't happen until sometime in the 38th century.  Sorry millinium doomsdayers.


I'm going to the US this summer with no money, any chance i might survive? where should i go?

Unless you have a work permit, you may have to work illegally. But it still depends on what you can do. You can try restaurants. But the pay is really bad, I don't know if you can afford to stay in the US on the money. If you hitchike, depending on where you are, you can try labor (farming) but that's hard work, and I'm not sure about the pay. \nIf you have any skills (computer, acting, etc) you can try to get an American corporation to sponsor you, so you can work for them. Not sure how to guide you with that.\nTry the want-ads in the city/cities you want to stay in. Many cities have their newspapers online.
