how can I find out about the federal rules and regulations regarding medicaid and or behavioral health?

You can request a copy of the federal rules from your local social services department, the behavioral health issue can be addressed through a social worker at a clinic or perhaps you can try an insurance company that offers their plan instead of Mediciad.

Prophecies about Islam in the Bible ,what do you think?

If you believe that Islam is spoken of in the Holy Bible, then it only points to one truth, that the Holy Bible is true. I just am not sure that it is about Islam that is being spoken of.\n\nIf the Bible is true and the Qur'an is true as you claim, then there are already two truths. All believe that there is one God so then why are there two truths?\n\nJust asking?


How far in advance of graduation should I apply for a job in Mechanical Engineering?

It would be best if you could find a summer job or internship that is related to mechanical engineering, as that could already give you an "in" with that company. Hence, your search starts right now. But your potential employers would also prefer to see some related work experience outside of your design classes, so even if your summer employer can't offer you a job, you'll be ahead of the game. But for work starting in January, you should definitely get serious about applying for jobs starting in September. Be sure to make use of all the services your college has to offer. Have your resume ready, and start going to the career fairs on your campus. You could even start researching companies you're interested in right now.

Who has scored the most goals in international competition in soccer?

All the previous answers citing Fernec Puskas are incorrect.\n\nWhile Fernec did score 84 international goals between 1945 and 1956, his record was beaten in 2003 by Ali Daei from Iran.\n\nIn a November 28, 2003 Asian Cup qualifier in Tehran against Lebanon, Ali Daei scored his 85th international goal, elevating him past Hungarian legend Ferenc Puskas to topthe all-time list of scorers in international matches (among men; he trails women's leader Mia Hamm by over 50 goals).

what and where are mountain ranges in Illinois?

Illinois was almost completely wiped of any high elevating hills or mountains during the Ice Age.  However, there is a small section of the state located in the northwest that was missed by the glacier activity.  These hills are high in elevation for a plains state like Illinois, but aren't tall enough to be classified as mountains.  As far as I know, there isn't even a name for that chain of mounds.\n\nSorry, I know this probably isn't of much help...

It all depends on what condition it's in. If it is worn (when you compare it to other coins) there is less value \nthan if it's in perfect shape.  It also depends on where \nit was made.  You really have to take it to someone that can\nlook at and put a value on it.  Just to be safe, take it to\n2 or 3 different places. Do not clean it. If it is valuable,\ncleaning will take away some of the value.

i have been remarried for 5 yrs now. is it common not to be happy? 1st wife died!?

You have to look back why you married her, try to find out what makes you happy, feel peaceful, or anything that makes you so in love with her and decided to marry her. It is not really wrong If you start not happy, because you just get bored with all...but if you want to try just do something new, new activity or try some fun activities with her, maybe it works for you. Please do not compare her with your 1st wife it's really unfair...a woman really sensitive with that, it makes her feeling hurt because she never exist for you.

I was dumped by my ex-BF after 11 years - how can I get over him?

I am sorry.  I think many men set up a female on the side so they can do these dramatic walk-outs and start a brand new life without a regret.  Meanwhile, the woman is left with her guts blown out, all this self-doubt and second guessing about herself.  Look, he's a jerk.  He's way more than a jerk.  He planned his escape months before you were aware.  He's a worm and a coward.  He's not the man you give him credit for being.  He's a self-absorbed selfish bastard.\n\nTell yourself every day he's a selfish bastard.  Because he is one and you know it.  Join a gym, start exercising so you feel good about your body and the skin you are in right now.  Don't even think about meeting someone else right now, you aren't ready.  Join a support group or get therapy.  There isn't any shame in that.  This guy robbed you of your feeling of security by his cowardly actions.  You need to reclaim that for yourself.\n\nDon't let one selfish bastard make you a fat recluse!  Get mad, get healed, get on with it!\n\nYou can do it!

Simple Question. Its all with Modesty.\nPeople hide it, others protray it. Its human nature to be embrassed when they know what they are doing is wrong and they are still doing it.\n\nOk,If someones come and see you naked.how do you feel? embarrassed rite? excatly!!! Men do not like woman to see them watching porn. Why? Firstly what they are watching is illegal,2ndly its protraying the opposite sex and woman and woman would see it as a outrage of modesty to themselves. Men would feel embarrassed to let a woman know that. Watching Porn is like watching someone making you horny. your wife will feel inferior to feel that you need to go to other ways to endulge in sexual pleasure. That she will realise she cannot do for you as you already misstreat her trust.\n\nMen Watch Porn is normal. But its all in by human nature.we hide our modesty for a reason.Thats why people have to hide it. Its only human instincts.

If a roommate moves out before a lease expires, should he pay all/partial/no utilities on top of rent?

This is difficult with friends involved. I was in a situation similar, except I was the roommate that moved out. I continued to pay rent as well as the ultilities since it was a <i>contracted</i> agreement. The moved-out roommate should still have to pay for the utilities only if he was there when you first signed up for the utilities, therefore making him responsible for the utilities just the same with the rest of the roommates. If you wanna be soft with him, just ask him to pay for the non-usage based utilities since it's still somewhat of his responsibility.


The science olympics began in 1912 in Oslo, Norway.  The Norwegians were the hometown favorites, but it was the Germans who took most of the gold medals.  Four of those medals were later revoked and awarded to the Norwegian team after it was learned that the German team was competing under the influence of the infamous "mystery liquid".  Interestingly enough, these same mystery liquids were removed from the banned substances list until the 1956 games.


whats the difference between wheel alignment & wheel balancing in a car? how does one go about it?

Wheel alignment is how aligned wheels are with respect to each other. For example, you wouldnt want your front wheels to point away from each other.... they would rub themselves off as they rolled.  \n\nWheel balancing is balancing the weight of the wheel on its center. If one side of a tire was to weigh a few ounces heavier then the other side, it would vibrate when you drive at higher speeds.\n\nJust take your car to a repair shop.


What is Clostridium Difficile, or C.diff and its symptoms?

I had it for over 6 months and I'm 25 years old.  I got it from Ampicillin and Gentamycin during labor.  I USED to post on www.cdiffsupport.com - there is a lot of info there that you may find helpful.  Just dont post questions that have been answered - the mods are psycho.  So search first so they dont jump all over you "CHECK THE FAQ" bla bla bla type answers.\n\nAnyway, I had profuse watery yellow diarrhea, rapid pulse, didnt feel quite right, and I lost weight.  The front line treatment is Flagyl that has horrible side effects that just add to the symptoms of C.diff.  If Flagyl fails, then Vancocin is prescribed - highly expensive stuff.  \n\nI finally got 'cured' by seeing an Infectious disease doctor.. My GI was clueless.\n\nI have kids and they never picked it up from me - sanitation, hand washing, and keeping things clean will help with infection control.

The genetic material contained in genes is known as...?

I guess if you reasoned it out, the answer would be plain and simple:\n\nA cell couldn't be due to the fact that a gene is found inside a cell.\n\nA chromosome neither, due tot he fact that a gene is part of a chromosome.\n\nA trait first of all is not a genetic material, but the expression of the gene.\n\nAn obviously the only answer which remains is DNA.\n\nnucleotide + sugar + phosphate group ->  Nucleic acid -> make a DNA strand -> which make up a gene -> which is found in a chromosome -> which are found in the nucleus.

What is the diffrences between classic olimypic game anfd modern olympic game?

The Olympics games were not originally an international competition, they were held with in Greece.  They used to be male only competitions, and the men had to compete naked to prove they were male after a woman competed and beat some men somewhere back in history before they had to do it nude.\nThere are many more sports in the modern olympics than there were in the classic games, tho there are some that remain, mainly athletic events such as javelin, discus, jumps and running events.\nDuring the classical period the olympic movement did not have the same ideals as the modern one, and there were no winter olympics.\nThe 5 interlocking rings is a new symbol, though there was a torch in the classical period.\nThe games from classical greece were held to honour the gods, now they are used to spread a message about good sportsmanship and international co-operation.\nRules have become rationalised in the modern olympics, no doubt in the classic games the final decision was made by an important official, probably with a few favourites....


What is your opinion of what 420 means or represents?

What Does '420' Mean?\nFrom Denise Witmer,\nA discussion on our Parenting Advice and Support Forum, had this Guide in puzzlement. I had reported years ago that the term 420(pronounced four twenty, not four hundred and twenty), was police code for smoking marijuana in a feature on pager codes that teenagers use to "talk" to each other. I began researching the number again and it seems I was wrong. Read on to learn the myths, the truth about the origin and what this term means for parents.\n\nKnown Myths\n\n    * Police dispatch code for smoking pot is 420. The number 420 is not police radio code for anything, anywhere. Checks of criminal codes suggest that the origin is neither Californian nor federal. For instance, California Penal Code 420 defines as a misdemeanor the hindrance of use of public lands.\n \n* There are approximately 420 active chemicals in marijuana. Actually, there are approximately 315 active chemicals in marijuana. This number goes up and down depending on which plant is used.\n    * April 20th is National Pot Smokers Day. Well, it is now; but that wasn't the origin.\n    * April 20th is Hitler's birthday. Yes, it is his birthday. But, as 420 started out as a time, not a date, his birthday had nothing to do with it.\n    * April 20th is the date of the Columbine school shootings. This happened after the term was already in use.\n    * 4:20 is tea time for pot-smokers in Holland. Tea time in Holland is at 5:30 pm, or is it 2:30 pm? Seems no one is quite sure when the wonderful people of Holland drink their tea. \n\nThe Origin Revealed\n\nAccording to Steven Hager, editor of High Times, the term 420 originated at San Rafael High School, in 1971, among a group of about a dozen pot-smoking wiseacres who called themselves the Waldos, who are now pushing 50. The term was shorthand for the time of day the group would meet, at the campus statue of Louis Pasteur, to smoke pot. Intent on developing their own discreet language, they made 420 code for a time to get high, and its use spread among members of an entire generation. While our teens feel that they know something we don't, you can let them in on the fact that it was your generation that came up with the numbers.\n\nA quote from one of the Waldos in the High Times article states, "We did discover we could talk about getting high in front of our parents without them knowing by using the phrase 420." Fortunately, your teenagers will not have that same option.\n\nWhatever!\n\nSimply put, 420 is a symbol of cannabis and its culture. Today, April 20th events are international, and 4:20 pm has become sort of a world wide "burn time". It certainly doesn't matter too much where the term came from because for us parents, it's a flag, a warning sign that our teenagers may be into something that could harm their future. When you see the symbol 420, be aware of what it represents.\n\n________________________________________________________\nor another one:\n\n \n \n\nWhat Does 420 Mean To You?\n\nYou've seen it on T-shirts, you've heard it in songs, and you've probably seen it in the movies. The number 420 is everywhere, but do you know what it represents? What does 420 mean to you?\n\n420 has become an iconic symbol in the marijuana culture. For many years, it was an underground term that eventually leaked out into the mainstream and has since become commercialized. You may have noticed people around school sporting 420 on clothing or other merchandise. Even though it is becoming more prominent in the teen culture, most adults and even some teens don't know about the meaning behind 420.\n\nThere are varying theories on the origin of the 420 marijuana culture trend. Some say that 420 originated from a police code that announces marijuana use is taking place. Others believe there are 420 chemical components in marijuana (there are, in fact, more than 400 chemical components – making marijuana smoke

Is it a good option to invest in a Kolkata flat by a single 26F who might be moving to dif city post marriage?

depends if the place where u will buy the flat has increasing rate of appreciation and also if u can fulfill your loan and can accomodate the monthly EMI in ur salary..maybe u myt be able to sell the flat later on on a good profit... i think u shud buy a flat becoz most of the places have prices appreciating now and if u decide to buy a flat then buy it now because the prices increase fast.


Do you have any tips on how to maintain professionalism and integrity in the workplace?

(1) Find at least one positive thing in each of the people that work with. And concentrate on that one thing to exclude the 99 other things that they do that activate your negative feelings. The 'one thing' could be as trivial as the pleasing colour of their shoes. (2) Choose to work well with a colleague who is the least incompetent/disorganised of the group you work with; as you build trust and success with this colleague, word might spread and your colleagues may learn that they have to adapt their behaviour in order to obtain your (valued) assistance. (3) Create an anchor to obtain a state of calmness to maintain your composure when the office situation deteriorates - see the link below


the mechanism of U enrichment by lasers?

A two-color three-photon ionization technique, using two pulsed dye lasers, was employed to explore the high-lying energy levels of U I. A number of new U I levels in the 34 290--35 120-cm/sup -1/ region was observed.^Uncertainty in the assignment of J values to some levels known from earlier studies was also reduced or removed.\n\nHUH? Is that what you want?\n\nEDIT\nAbstract. Two-colour resonance ionization spectroscopy was used for identification of 240 new levels of 238U in the energy range of 38 500 to 41 200 cm-1. A precision of +or-0.03 cm-1 (1 SD) for the energies was obtained by using laser-induced fluorescence signals of I2 for spectral calibration. The angular momentum quantum number, J, was uniquely assigned for 134 of these levels by using angular momentum selection rules. \n\nThats a little more specific\nAnd some more\n\nAbstract. Visible and infrared absorption measurements on the  ion in tetragonal zircon-type matrix  are reported and analysed in terms of the standard parametrization scheme. The observed 17 main peaks and a number of less intense lines have been assigned and fitted to most of the 32 allowed electric dipole transitions with the root mean square error equal to . The free-ion parameters obtained for the model Hamiltonian, , ,  and , as well as the corresponding crystal-field parameters, , , ,  and , agree fairly well with the initial theoretical estimations. The results are discussed in relation to the previous spectroscopic study on the scheelite-type matrix .

No, I don't think so.

should we return to the use of corporal punishment for selected crimes?

Yes, I believe that the United States should employ such methods of corporeal punishment for particularly heinous crimes like the caining they do in Japan, only for serious crimes, not for spray painting graffiti or jaywalking because that would make us barbarians. Crimes like rape and very serious drug trafficing charges (not for smoking a single joint but rather transporting over one metric ton of cocaine in), and things of a grave and serious nature.

Best way to prevent putting a wall up around your heart?

The best thing to do is try and set your own boundaries and really keep in tune with your feelings.  First figure out what your limits are and don't let anyone pass them.  This may mean you might have to walk away from some situations and you might have regrets.  \n\nRemember it's one thing to protect your heart, and another to put up a boundary.  Protecting your heart means still being open, but setting those limits you won't let others pass, taking things really slow and really looking at the situation as a whole.\n\nOne thing I found especially helpful after ending a relationship was to make a list of what I wanted in someone else, a list of 10 most important to least important things, and I made sure that they at least had the top five before I would consider getting involved.\n\nFOr general situations, like with friends, family, etc.  I found that stepping outside the situation helps a lot.  Sorta pulling yourself aside and look in at it like it's your friend experiencing it.  What would you say or do to your friend, how would you expect your friend to react, etc.  This helps give perspective because your personal feelings aren't right there, it's more like looking in on a movie (even though you are the star)\n\nHope that helps.


what should someone do about a rape that happened a long time ago?

hey sweety, I just wanted to drop by and tell you what I did rather than to tell you what to do. Three years and a half ago me and my boyfriend broke up. He had always been an ass to me. Well not always but it seems he didn't love me. I left him loving him, tring to tell myself I didn't. I was sad for a couple of months. I was really sad, and alone. There was this guy that seemed to always be there for me. He seemed different. He easily convinced me with lies. When I was in the sitiution and was about to go for it. I backed off, and don't him to stop. I was having second thought on it. He didn't listen. I pushed him off... I got raped that day. It was only a couple of seconds of seconds that he did it but I have lived with it for the ret of my life. After that I realized who I really loved. I went back with my ex, and everything was great. I kept having that scare in me. I eventiually told him what happened. He cried like I had never seen him cry. He told me it was a lie. Then he told me to do something about it if it wasn't a lie. I was scared. What would everyone say. Especially my family. They didn't even know I was with my boyfriend. Eventiually I thought that with time it would heal never did though. Eventiually my boyfreind went on and saw the guy who raped me in a local bar. I guess my boyfriend had a little to much to drink, or maybe had to much built inside that he slammed the beer on the table then slid that guys throat. I couldn't believe what he had done. Yet I now know he did it for what I didn't do. He told me not to worry about him. That he was happy. He did what I never had the guts to do. I still love him, and wish he was with me instead of in prison. It's been two years since this happens, and i'm still so sad. The love of my life might now be put on dead row and I feel so guilty. I'm sure that things like these never happened to you, and never will hopefully the rape you talk about wasn't like mine.


can i work out even though my goal is to gain weight and not lose?

For starters increase your dietary intake of good carbs and protein. I like the nytrowhey for hard gainers. Great stuff. Also creatine definately works great\nThe quickest way to put on weight(good weight) is a combination of weight training, supplementation, rest and diet. Everyday make sure you get ample rest 9 hours at least. Join a gym and get start training hard, this will increase your appetite for food. Get down 6 or more meals a day filled with red meat, chicken, vegetables and some carbs. Whether it be potatoes, rice, pasta, don't be scared of the carbs. Use a weight gainer such as Universal Nutrition Muscle Juice, along with creatine and Universal Animal Pak. Consistency as in anything else in life will bring results. You will look and feel great using this method. Remember muscle is heavier than fat, and more visibly appealing, so rather than just eating alone weight train, supplement, diet, and rest

Stars are big fiery balls of gas. Essentially the gases cluster together and become stars through gravity and fusion. It's a rather complicated process; check the link below for a more detailed explanation.\n\nStars appear to be in our sky because they are in space. Most stars appear to be small points of light, although many of these stars are smaller than our sun. The sun simply appears larger because it is much nearer to the Earth.

reflections on the main finction of education on curriculum development?

This question makes absolutely no sense.\n\nCurriculum development is a component of education. It is the materials and activities packages that are used to support instruction toward student learning of standards and benchmarks. New curriculum is constantly being developed, formally (by companies) and informally (by teachers) to address new student learning needs, and to address long-term student learning needs in new ways.

A douche bag is used to clean a person’s anus or vagina with water or some other sort of sanitary liquid. It is not recommended that women douche their vaginas, as this upsets the natural, healthy pH balance of the vagina.\n\nBecause of the douche bag’s association with people’s privates, it is often used as a derogatory name for someone.

I need help!!!! I have a boyfriend but does it make me gay if i like looking at naked gurlss!!!!?

If you like looking at girls, but know that you have feelings for boys, then don't worry about it. I've always heard that the woman body is more beautiful to look at than a man's. I prefer to look at my guy's body, but that doesn't mean I would like looking at a bunch of naked guy pictures. It doesn't make you gay just by looking.If guys were pretty to look at, then guys would look at naked guys too. Guys are hot, but women are just prettier to look at.

Blockbuster Incorporated is a publicly traded company--it is owned by many people and even other companies. \n\nPerhaps the confusion is over a Blockbuster Video store location that is managed by people who align themselves with the Mormon religion? That is entirely possible--but I can assure you that the Mormon religion as a church has no ties to Blockbuster Video. \n\nBut what does this mean? I know a Catholic man that owns a restaurant, should I not eat there because of his religious beliefs? This could go on and on and on...where ever you go, you're going to encounter businesses owned by people with beliefs that differ from your own. \n\nWhich brings me to my last point--who are YOU calling intolerant and mean-spirited?! You just got done saying how you wouldn't go to a store that had connections to the Mormon religion. Is THIS not being intolerant? \n\nYes, I'm a Mormon. My best friend is a Muslim. Part of my family are Atheist. I love them all. My religion teaches me to love them all. My religion teaches me to love all people for who they are. My religion helps millions and millions of people around the world every day. And you are saying that they are mean-spirited? \n\nThe Mormon religion donates millions and millions of dollars to humanitarian aid every year. In 2005 for instance, they personally responded to every major natural disaster in the world. Earthquakes in Pakistan? They were there. Flooding and mudslides in S. America? They were there. Hurricane Katrina? They were there. They also have many ongoing programs in most every country in the world. They grow food on Church operated farms and raise meat on Church operated ranches ALL for the purpose to feeding the needy--Mormons and non-Mormons alike. They have an extensive free wheelchair program covering the globe. They have one of the most comprehensive job training and placement programs in all of South America--at no cost, it is for anyone who needs help. They don't have to be a Mormon, they don't have to be a Christian. They have an extensive medical training program for childbirth doctors in South America in an effort to improve infant mortality rates. This is for ALL doctors who wish to participate. \n\nIntolerant? Mean-spirited? Take a look around man!

Did the catholic church burn down the library of Alexandria in Egypt?

For the same reason that they ordered the destruction of dozens of other gospels and make numerous attempts to destroy the "heretical" Christian sects.\n\nThey were terrified of any knowledge that ran counter to "orthodoxy" and had any ties to paganism.  With Rome backing them, they had the power to crush anyone different.  This attitude persisted for almost a thousand years until Aquinas showed there was something to be found in classical knowledge.\n\nEven the Pantheon was converted to a Christian monument and most Pagan references removed as late as the 17th Century.\n\nTHAT'S the reason why they are called the dark ages, as so much knowledge and enlightenment was lost.\n\nPity.

The good is having a needed root canal performed on a tooth can save the tooth and the person could have the tooth for the rest of their life (considering the person takes good care of it and the rest of their teeth and gums).  The bad is that people will get the root canal done and then never return for a crown and the tooth will break over time or the person will not have good oral hygiene and will lose the tooth.

I live in New Iberia ,LA. I am trying to find out how to put my 14 year old in Jr.ROTC who do I contact?


It is a controversial point of divorce law, but can be proven if intent and basis is established fact.\n\nIt is willful financial manipulation to avoid sharing in the estimate of joint assets and liabilities.  Generally, it is where one spouse tries to hide their assets and increase their liabilities in order to avoid disposition of either to their greater benefit.\n\nExample:  Couple A & B have car loan that is in both their names.  Spouse A stops paying the monthly payment on the car and it is repossessed.  In this scenario, Spouse A attempts to show that their financial situation is so dire, that they need additional alimony or asymmetrical division of assets or liabilities to improve their finances.\n\nIf Spouse A is found to have done so willfully, they may be accused of marital waste and their claims for the above will be dismissed.\n\nAgain, this can be hard to establish as fact.

a car moves towards east with velocity of 5m/s and then towards north with velocity of 5m/s,time taken is 5min

We have to find the resultant acceleration of acceleration in East direction and acceleration in the North direction, since there is change in direction.\n\nSince it moves with same speed in both directions it is enough if we find in any one direction.\n\nFor the first 2.5 s there is no acceleration, similarly there is no acceleration in the second 2.5 s. \n\nAt the end of first 2.5 s it has to come to stop and then turn to north all with zero time. \n\n In the Eastern direction the change in speed is 5- 0 = 5m/s. To find acceleration divide this by zero.  It is not defined. \n\nIf we assume that it takes a very small time, then the acceleration in this direction is nearly   minus infinity toward west (as the speed is reduced).\n\nSimilarly in the north direction it is plus infinity toward west.\n\nThe resultant of these two is inclined toward North West with a magnitude of infinity.

What are the best methods to study for my final exams in high school?

The exam is a long term memory test.There is a clear triangular relationship among the memory, ability of analyzing and the ability of writing. To face your final exam well, you have to concentrate several important factors are behind this process. They are as follows;\n\n(1) Knowing subject matters well.\n(2) Memorizing them regularly as points.\n(3) Practicing to write the answers to the questions guessed.\n(4) Giving up ill thoughts which you have.\n(5) Meditating to gain a calm mind better at the time you are getting and at the time you are going to the bed.\n(6) Living in a calm and quiet environment.\n\nThe above mentioned matters are very helpful to pass an exam.Look at my profile  and they helped me to obtain 3 degrees.These techniques are very useful to the student who wishes to study well.


I believe in the evolution theory,but when did the split bee tween plants and animals occur?

That happened way back when eukaryotes split from prokaryotes. Eukaryotes have a nucleus.  Then eukaryotes split into animals, plants, fungus, etc... but they were still very tiny organisms at first.\n\nOpisthokonts separated from Archaeplastida\nThis was around 1.6-2.1 billion years ago.  "Modern" groups came about 80 million years ago.\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eukaryotes#Origin_and_evolution

My Aunt has been extremly dizzy and off balance for about 2 weeks she staggers and now my cousin has it?

Sounds like an inner ear virus. I had it once. stood up, felt a bit dizzy but though it'd right itself in a few minutes. Got in the car to go pick up my son, turned a corner and fell over into the passenger seat! Luckily I didn't crash but had to pull over and have someone come and get me. I refused to go out in public (happened over my birthday too) because everyone who saw me thought I was drunk. I was sick to my stomach but I suffer from motion sickness too. A doctor can check for it real easy just by waving their finger back and forth in front of their eyes and watching the reaction. \n  My 9 month old son ended up with it too, he was just starting to walk but all of a sudden kept falling down. \n  I have constant vertigo because of it (always a little dizzy) but I've learned to live with it. Hopefully your aunt and cousin will come out of it ok. There's nothing the doctors can do to get rid of it, just treat the symptoms. My doc gave me something to help with the dizziness but I can't recall the name. If you need me to find out, I can try. Good luck to your family.

if aether as a substance didnt make sense,does space time make better sense as a aubstance??

The reason aether doesn't make sense now is because of  experiments that have proven it to be non-existent. Aether was used to explain what light waves went through, but when we realized that light could travel through a vacuum, the idea became usless. Space-time is a theory, so it can't be proven right. However, at the time being, it seems to work. Of course, the concept of Aether seemed to work too.

i am curious why people have such a big hang up on satan&hell?

HELL IN KJV\nOne Hebrew word “sheol” is rendered hell. Definition; hades or the world of the dead (as if a subterranian retreat), grave, hell, pit. Three Greek words are rendered hell; geenna, hades, and tartaroo. Definition of geenna; a valley of Jerusalem, used (figuratively) as a name for the place (or state) of everlasting punishment: - hell. Definition of hades; properly unseen, that is, “Hades” or the place (state) of departed souls: - grave, hell. Definition of tartaroo; (the deepest abyss of Hades); to incarcerate in eternal torment: - cast down to hell. Tartaroo is used only one place II Pet.2:4.\nChrist teaching the Pharisees in Luke 16:19-31 shows us a separation from God is truly what hell is. The “water” is symbolic for God’s Spirit and love. The word “tormented” means distressed in the Greek, not torture. The “fire” is symbolic for the shame and desire not to be separated from God. \nSo all who die the first death of the flesh return to God Ecc.12:6-7, but on which side of the gulf do they end up?\nHell is not eternal but is done away with in Gen.20:14-15, called both the second death and lake of fire. This second death is non-existence, for death and hell and those not written in the book of life. This second death or lake of fire is like fat drippings that fall into the fire. Just a poof of smoke into non-existence.\nPsa.37:20  But the wicked shall perish, and the enemies of the LORD shall be as the fat of lambs: they shall consume; into smoke shall they consume away.\nIn my mind what’s worse yet is no memory of you, no tears will be shed for you like you never existed.\nRev.21:4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. \nSo hell is a separation from God and is not eternal torture or burning. Eventually hell will be done away with or passed away and also some souls. Like fat drippings in the fire, a poof of smoke into non-existence, the second death.


Does your president really run your country?

Actually we hold job as president too important in my opinion. The president works for us, not the other way around. Bush has been telling the American people what to do and how to think about certain situations and i find this to be completly wrong. Like I mentioned above, the President works for us and he should do what we want. My loyalties belong to this country, not its president.

Anyone have a good idea on how to do homeschooling?

Actually, homeschoolers are enrolled as part-time students when they take classes at public schools. First check your state standards as to what you are required to do to set up your homeschool. Homeschool Legal Defense Association could point you in the right direction. Then contact your school district and find out what classes your child could take. Some districts will only allow hs'ers to take extracurricular classes.\n\nThen figure out what kind of homeschool you want to set up. Do you want your child to direct her own learning, do you want her to fill out worksheets and take tests, do you want her to do unit studies, do you want to unschool her (probably not from what you've said)? Do you like history based studies, literature based studies, or something more math and science driven? Are you looking for Christian curriculum or secular?\n\nOnce you have a little direction, jump on the internet and start searching. Find out if there will be a curriculum fair or convention before you buy anything. And always try to find used curriculum and talk to the person who used it. See what they thought of it and if they'd recommend it.\n\nOh, and see if you can find a homeschool support group near you. Those moms will have a wealth of information. Hope this helps.

As for looks every woman has her idealistic look but usually ends up  with something completely different.  Personality will always win over looks but women do appreciate a man who grooms, makes an effort and has good personal hygiene.  If in doubt be urseld cos we love confidence, never be fake. and u know what if she doesnt appreciate what uv got or tries to change u - go find someone who'll love u for what u are. good luck in love.

A mild virus might only be a slight nuisance, or even amusing. However, most viruses do damage, whether to your files, your registry, or even your hardware.

How come you see so many Asian females and Caucasian males couples around but not the other way around?

Actually I see white girls with Asian guys.  But I live in a big city where folks tend to be more progressive.  I think it mostly has something to do with American white girls being very provincial.\nAnd overall I think Asians tend to be more attractive, so I'd have to disagree with the comments left above.

There is no exact definition, its essentially when an employee receives the benefit of their company paying something on their behalf.

Has the noise stopped? Which is the transitive,intransitive or linking verb?

Verb - a 'doing' word.\n\nIn this sentence, the verb is 'stop'.\n\nA transitive verb is one that can take an object.  For example:  'I hit John'.  ('hit' is 'transitional' between 'I' and 'John').\n\nAn intransitive verb is one that does not take an object.  For example: 'laugh'.  (I can laugh but I cannot laugh something/someone).\n\nSome verbs (like 'stop') can be transitive OR intransitive.  Example:  The noise stopped.  (Intransitive) as opposed to 'I stopped the noise'.  (Transitive).\n\nIn your sentence, 'stop' is used intransitively.\n\nI am not sure what you mean by a 'linking verb'.  If you mean an auxiliary verb, then 'has' is an auxiliary verb in your sentence.  (The sentence uses the present perfect simple tense of 'stop'.  This tense uses the verb 'have' as an auxiliary.  It's a question, so the auxiliary verb and subject are inverted.  'Has the noise stopped.')

The legal system is annoyingly complex, and simple procedural (paperwork) errors can cause your entire case to be thrown out. Not getting a lawyer for a major lawsuit is like trying to repair cavities in your own teeth rather than going to a dentist. And about as painful.\n\nBut, if you are determined to do it yourself, that makes you "pro se" (meaning "for self"), also known as "in pro personam" or "pro per" ("in the name of the person"). Also, remember that the person who files a complaint is called the "plaintiff".\n\nThe first thing a plaintiff needs to consider is: what legal theory are they basing their claim on? What did the company do that violates any existing statute or tort? This needs to be researched in a local law library (available at most courts and lawschools) or equivalent. \n\nNext, the plaintiff need to figure out how they have been harmed, and to be able to articulate that in the complaint. The plaintiff also needs to be able to either attach a dollar figure, or determine if they are asking to court to order the other party to stop doing something (called: injunctive relief). \n\nOnce this is determined, that will determine whether the complaint can be made in small claims court (where neither side will have a lawyer). Most small claims courts (also sometimes called municipal courts) have public legal aid departments to help figure out if that route is available.\n\nIf small claims court will not work, then the next step is to find the appropriate superior (general jurisdiction) court to file the suit.\n\nAfter figure out which court to use, the plaintiff needs to draft a complaint, setting forth all the facts and claims articulated regarding the case, plus the requested relief. The plaintiff should also check state court rules for what else needs to be in the complaint.\n\nOnce the complaint is drafted, it needs to be filed with the court using the proper procedure. Most courts will help with the filing procedural questions. After being filed, copies of the complaint would need to served on the opposing parties. \n\nFailure to properly serve notice on the other parties will cause the complaint to be dismissed. Technical defects in how the complaint is prepared or formatted will cause the complaint to be dismissed. Even if the complaint is not dismissed for procedural problems, the other party can argue that the complaint does not contain the proper substantive arguments, and get it dismissed that way. Even if the complaint doesn't get dismissed, that just gets the plaintiff into the door -- then the complex stuff begins.


/what is the difference between a global village and a traditional village?

"the global village" is not literally a village.   It refers to how the world has become so much smaller because of the growth of the internet and other forms of communication.

For all I know,  you and I are on different continents,  but it's no different than if you were across the street.

breaking down of molicules in water - what is the process?

Lets use the example of salt again. NaCl. What happens is this. Both water molecules and salt molecules are ionized molecules. When salt is added to water, the ionic bond breaks apart as the positively charged Na is attracted to the negatively charged OH in the water and the negatively charged Cl is attracted to the positively charged H in the water.

Why are there brunettes in the world, not fair?

I point out that "God made them" fails entirely to explain the situation.  Adam and Eve cannot contribute enough different versions of genes (four total, assuming no duplicates) to account for the modern diversity of hair color, much less the really complicated traits (over 100 different versions in some cases).\n\nAncestral humans were dark haired.  Mutant genes for different hair colors have occured at various times in history.  Caucasians seem to have several.  It's not clear why.  It's suspected that it may have to do with general color reduction to allow us to produce more vitamin D (I think that's the one we produce with sunlight).  Dark hair on the body would absorb light and keep it off the skin, just like melanin in the skin would absorb it and keep it from being used.\n\nThe people who lived in Japan before it's current ethnic group moved in had a red hair gene that was fairly common and still crops up on occasion in Japan to this day, though not at all often.

Lions aren't stronger than Tigers. Siberian Tigers have about 100lbs on Lions in general, depending on the individual animal. And 500lbs on a hyena. The assumption that a hyena could kill a tiger is untrue. Because while the hyenas have the strongest jaws in the animal kingdom, they are far smaller than tigers. So hyenas are not stronger than any of the Tigers, they have stronger jaws, but that is not the same thing.\nSiberian Tigers are the largest of all the big cats.  \nI would lean towards the Siberian Tiger because pound for pound, it is heavier, and actually probably more muscular. However it really depends on which tiger you would be using for comparison according the below link.

does the amount of seeds have anything to do with the quality of my weed?

yes definately you havent pulled out and destroyed the male plants.\nas soon as the plants are forming little yellow flowers on branches that spring up higher than the rest of the plant you must pull these out .and only leave the female plant if not they will polinate the females and directly effect the amount of canabis(less)that forms on the female buds ,the less seeds the better.\n\nyou never want to see little yellow flowers and you only see them in the early stages and they are usually about half of the seeds that come up.

(mechanical engineering)how can i use pressurized fluid in deep drawing processes?

With enough pressure any fluid may be used to creat domes, caps, ect in your sheet metals. By sing the same processes in deep drawing you could in theory use pressuized fluid by restraining the sides of your medal, but I would guess you might get irregular shapes by just applying this pressure randomly.\nIf you were to possibly use an iron (solid) stencil to say over the top of your sheet metal, then apply the pressurized fluid you might achieve the design in the stencil.\nThat's about all I can tell you, I'm not an engineer.

Who was the original lead singer for the techno-pop group Animotion?

Once upon a time in Los Angeles there was a retro science fiction band called Red Zone featuring Astrid Plane on vocals. Charles Ottavio was producer of their first and only album "Living on Lust". It was voted as one of 1982s 10 best albums in L.A. by Music Connection magazine. Larry Ross of CBS Records became interested in signing the band but it was not meant to be. In 1983 Red Zone disbanded.\n\nAstrid and Charles together with Ross put together a new band. Astrid invented the name Animotion to convey energy and emotion. They recruited ex-Red Zone band members Frenchy O’Brien (drums) and Paul Antonelli (keyboards). Charles switched from producer/manager to bass player for the newly formed band. Ross quit CBS records to become their full time manager and he brought in Bill Wadhams to front the band with Astrid. In March 1984 they did a showcase for Russ Regan of Polygram Records and inked the deal soon after.\n\nDuring the recording of the first album Bill brought in guitarist Don Kirkpatrick and keyboard player Greg Smith.\n\nThe album was released in late 1984 and Animotion began getting their first airplay from KROQ in Los Angeles. KROQ added Obsession to their heavy rotation playlist and the band was now selling out shows all over Hollywood. KISS FM in L.A. answered by sponsoring a 5-day heavyweight "Battle of the Bands". After 5 days of some serious competition the champion was Animotion, beating out worthy opponents such as Frankie Goes to Hollywood. Animotion was on their way to their first top 10 hit!\n\nIn 1985 Animotion hit the road for their first tour of the West Coast. Later, they toured with Howard Jones playing to sold out arenas and stadiums across the US and Canada while "Obsession" was climbing the charts worldwide.\n\nBetween 1985-1986 Animotion made several TV appearances on American Bandstand, Solid Gold and Soul Train. Astrid and Bill were presenters at the 1986 American Music Awards with the original soul diva Diana Ross. Sharing the stage with Ms. Ross was truly a "supreme" moment for Astrid!\n\nVideo producer Ken Walz (Cyndi Lauper/"Girls Just Wanna Have Fun") put together a wild visual interpretation of Obsession complete with a Gladiator, a Samurai and Cleopatra romping around a decadent mansion in the Hollywood Hills. The video enjoyed very heavy airplay on MTV and made it to number 1 in Cashbox magazine’s video chart. The band also shot videos of their other singles, "Let Him Go," "I Want You" and "I Engineer" which was filmed in a abandoned WWII (haunted) hospital in Blackheath, London.\n\nIn late '86 and early '87 the band went into high gear criss-crossing the Atlantic to do videos in London, TV shows in Germany and to perform at the world famous Montreaux rock festival in Switzerland. They appeared alongside big stars such as INXS, The Eurythmics, Simply Red, Phil Collins and Genesis. They returned home to Southern California to play with Depeche Mode in front of 17,000 screaming fans for two sold-out shows at Irvine Meadows Amphitheater.\n\nSomewhere in the midst of all this excitement Jim Blair left his band, Shalimar to add his groove as Animotion’s new drummer.\n\nIn the middle of recording their third album for Polygram the band mysteriously combusted! One theory was an overdose of MSG in the Chinese food they ate that day. They were not to eat together again for 14 years…\n\nOn February 8, 2001 by special request from KNRK in Portland, Oregon and with mega-effort from Bill Wadhams, Animotion reunited.\n\nIn a display combining energy, emotion and intensity they played to a sold-out crowd at Polly Esthers, Portland. The band all agreed that it felt like magic to be onstage together again and Animotion Version 2001 was launched!\n\nAnimotion has performed several shows since then including many concerts with Berlin and Missing Persons. They also were featured on the hit NBC show, "Hit Me

Is there really a possibility of success with on-line dating???

Sure. Happens all the time. A recent article said that 12% of the people in the US who got married in 2005 met on the Internet. I am happily involved with someone I met on the 'net. No, it wasn't a dating site. Our first conversation was an argument about politics on a news discussion board.\n\nOf course there are going to be freaks and whackos here, but, if you think about it, you could also meet a freak or a whacko at a bar, at the food court, or even at school. The internet has no corner on the weird market.\n\nMy advice is just consider the 'net a way to meet people you probably wouldn't bump into in your "real" life, and take the time to learn about them just as cautiously as you would with someone you meet anywhere else.


Is it okay for a girl to make the first move?

I think it'll be ok to let him know of how you feel about him. It all depends what kind of a person he really is. You might wanna be cautious about getting out all your feelings. He is either in shock because of the break up or he's in relief. Sometimes when guys break up, they dont wanna go into another relationship too fast (it doesn mean they dont like to date!). \n\nThe fact that he wanted to stay at your house tells me he is attracted to you and wanted to get closer or simply was hoping to have sex. So, let him come closer but dont let him find out you like him too much or his EGO might rise up dramatically (just had a broke up and already a girl's asking him out.... so he might think "oh im so awesome, I'm sure I can find more offers..") \n\nSo act cool but make it apparent to him that you're open to finding out more about him. and meanwhile ask him why he doesnt go back to his girlfriend and solve their problems, see if he starts to think or he has already made his mind on that issue.\n\nGood Luck !!


She is you ex for a reason. No don't give her another chance. Tell her that you can only be her friend and if you have ever been intimate with her then just get sex from her until you find that special someone that interest you.


Well how good of a friend is he?  If you don't want to mess up with your friendship with him, be a man and let him know that you like his sister and if it is alright with him if you started seeing her.  Tell him to think about it and let you know what he thinks about it.  Sometimes they will say that it is alright and other times they will say no, but you won't know unless you ask him.


Would you fall in love with someone no matter what race they're from?

yes because there is no difference in anybody we all bleed the same. you should not look at whats on the outside it is whats on the inside that counts. god put every one on the earth to be treated equal, nothing more nothin less


Obvious answer of working more hours.\n\nPerhaps a better answer would be get a raise, perhaps increase your qualifications, or simply ask for one.\n\n(NB/ Above two options require you to be employed)\n\nGet a second job.\n\nMy prefered way would be to invest any free money you have in something to gain a return that is better than what the bank gives. Stocks, bonds or property.


Well, a pulsar is a neutron star that has a super strong magnetic field. These stars spin super fast throwing a beam of radio waves at us every second or two consistently. However, as the puslar spins as it does, it will eventually slow down and stop. As it slows down it's magnetic field degenerates and eventually you are just left with a neutron star that is sitting there with no magnetic field (well, a weak one anyway) and that doesn't spin anymore. It just...is.\n\nThere's also a pulsating star type that is basically a neutron star that is sucking matter off of it's binary buddy. If this is the case it gives off x-rays and has two possible fates:\n\n1. It's buddy lives long enough and enough matter is sucked out of it and given to the neutron star for the neutron star to undergo nova. If it continues for long enough it's ultimate fate could possibly be a blackhole.\n\n2. It's buddy dies and it just remains a neutron star.
