Italy, officially the Italian Republic (Italian: Italia, IPA: /i'talja/ or Repubblica Italiana, IPA: /re'pubblika ita'ljana/), is a Southern European country, situated on the western side of the European continent. It comprises the Italian peninsula, the Po River valley, and two large islands in the Mediterranean Sea, Sicily and Sardinia, and shares its northern alpine boundary with France, Switzerland, Austria and Slovenia. The country also shares a sea border with Croatia. The independent countries of San Marino and the Vatican City are enclaves within Italian territory.\n\nFor more than 3,000 years Italy witnessed many migrations and invasions from Germanic, Celtic, Frankish, Byzantine Greek, Saracen, Norman, and the French Angevin, and Lombard peoples. Italy was also home to many well-known and influential civilisations, including the Etruscans, Greeks and the Romans.\n\nItaly is called Belpaese (Italian for beautiful country) by its inhabitants, due to the beauty and variety of its landscapes and for having the world's largest artistic patrimony; the country is home to the greatest number of UNESCO World Heritage Sites (40 as of January 1, 2006).\n\nPresently, Italy is a highly developed country with the 6th highest GDP in 2004, a member of the G8 and a founding member of what is now the European Union, having signed the Treaty of Rome in 1957.\n\nInhabitants of Italy are referred to as Italians (Italian: Italiani). There exist several theories concerning the origin of the name "Italia", but the most widely accepted etymology is that it is derived from the ancient Greek word italos (bull).


Where, online, can I find legal cases that have been settled?

You can't find legal cases that have been settled published online or anywhere.  Settled cases are just dismissed and no opinion is ever issued.\n\nCases that go all the way through trial to a judicial decision are usually published in court reporters.  Most are available through legal services like Lexis or Westlaw.  But you shouldn't be researching case law without knowing what you are doing... too easy to be misled if you don't know how to interpret the precedent and jurisdiction.  Don't be pennywise and pound foolish... hire a good lawyer.


A gold rush is a period of feverish migration of workers into the area of a dramatic discovery of commercial quantities of gold. In the history of the United States and Canada, several gold rushes took place throughout the 19th century, first in the Appalachians, and later in the Sierra Nevada, the Fraser Canyon, the Cariboo district and other parts of British Columbia, and the Rocky Mountains. Gold rushes helped spur permanent population of new regions and define a significant part of the culture of the North American frontier. Similar gold rushes took place during the 19th century in Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa\n\nGold rushes were typically marked by a general buoyant feeling of a "free for all" in income mobility, in which any single individual might become abundantly wealthy almost instantly. The significance of gold rushes in history have given a longer life to the term, and it is now applied generally to capitalism to denote any economic activity in the participants aspire to race each other in common pursuit of a new and apparently highly lucrative market, often precipitated by an advance in technology.

What are you doing for Easter? How will your Church celebrate Palm Sunday?

Nothing.  I celebrate the holiday Ostara, the one the Christians ripped off from the Wiccans to make into Easter.


i know this is not an easy question but - the beatles or elvis? most influential?

I think they are both very influential in their own way. But I would say Elvis. Elvis shaped in a big part and brought back Rock and Roll. His lyrics, actions, and image were very revolutionary for the moment, he drove women mad. The Beatles, while most likely the most known band in history were not so revolutionary. They were very new and hip to US when they came over because the states didn't have the mod vs biker type scene that Britain had in that period. But all of their big accomplishments in the industry were a direct result of influences. They were influenced by the London scene, its very similar to what the Yardbirds sang, they just had more of a following. They then evolved into a more psychedelic sound, then into more introspective lyrics courtesy of Bob Dylan who was without a doubt the most revolutionary icon of the era. I think since they didn't necessarily come up with the concepts, but followed them they cannot be as influential. Elvis's concepts were all his own. Its just a matter of most people knowing the facts.

iTunes; can you change the "Last Played" data so that it appears you've receantly played all your songs?

you can select the top one and hit play and fastforward through it then select the song below that and fastforward through it and then the naxt song and so forth untill you have done all 4259 songs.  or an easier way you could burn them all to cds and then dlete all your files off the comp and reload them all back on then they will have no last played date

what would be in the centre of earth? Which substance gives gravitational pull?

We live on a very interesting planet. This planet actually hasn't completely cooled down yet and there is a lot of activity hundreds of miles below the Earth's crust (ther crust is where we are). The center of the Earth is very very very hot and a lot of substances (a lot of it being Iron (Fe) )are in molten form down there......Have you ever seen a volcano errupt (on a documentary or in a film?)? Well that stuff coming out is Molten Lava and is a mixture of substances (mostly rock) in liquid form. You cant get too close or you'll burn from the heat. I would go on telling you about this but then we'll be talking about another subject.\n\nThe gravitational pull of the Earth is because of its mass AND because of its rotation around the sun and itself. All bodies in the universe have a gravitational force and this force effects every other "body" in the universe (a bit like a draw in a tug-o-war) (This also explains why matter never can be completely annihilated and other aspects like the existence of dark matter and so forth....but that's advanced Astro-physics) \nThis gravitational pull is measured in NEWTONS (Newton is the guy that laid down the laws of gravity after an apple fell on his head.....) You'd weigh differently on each planet due to its MASS. For example if you where to lift a matchbox on Jupiter you would need a lot of help because it would weigh a lot more then it does here.....and so would you. So much so that your skeleton would not be able to support you and you would probably crumple into a meat heap......(i'm not going into detail because this will just go on and on to knew subjects.....you can find this info on the internet.....it's more fun to find out for yourself)\n\nI hope I've been helpful.......

Does the Bible say that Jesus was the last prophet?

Jesus peace be upon him did not say that he was the last prophet.\n\nCheck John chapter 16 verse 5 to 14\n\n5 "But now I go away to Him who sent Me, and none of you asks Me, "Where are you going?'\n\n6 " because I have said these things to you, sorrow has filled your heart.\n\n7 "Nevertheless I tell you the truth. It is to your advantage that I go away; for it I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you; but if I depart, I will send Him to you.\n\n8 And when He has come, He will convict the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment:\n\n9 "Of sin, because they do not believe in Me;\n\n10 "Of righteousness because I go to My Father and you see Me no more;\n\n11 "Of judgment, because the ruler of this world is judged.\n\n12 "I still have many things to say to you, but you cannot bear them now.\n\n13 "However, when he the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth; for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will tell you things to come.\n\n14 He will glorify Me, for He will take of what is Mine and declare it to you.\n\n\n\n\nThe Old Testament also mentions about coming of the last prophet.\nCheck the song of Solomon\nthe last prophet is mentioned by name\n"Mohammedim"\nIn Hebrew IM is used as plural of respect.\n"Mohammed IM"\nthe translators of Bible have also translated the Name\nMohammedIM = all together lovely.

How many were  murdered in the War between the I.R. A. and and the British?

I don't even know where to start. Ok the good news things are a lot better now. There's a cease fire and the IRA have been giving up their weapons, trouble is the Loyalists don't believe that so there's still no power sharing going on in Northern Ireland. Add to that the last power sharing executive was broken up by an alleged Sinn Fein spy ring which actually turned out to be a British spy ring and you'll see why we're a long way from resolving this. The British Government know a lot less about what's going on than their own Army do. Oh, they would never admit to it being a war either, they call it terrorism, but that's what they all do, right George W?


Can people say anything nice about black women?

I actually just read an article written by a black woman about how she was tired of men assuming she was just some big-lipped, big-butt sex object.  Whenever guys payed her compliments (especially white males) it usually had something to do with how they were "into her chocolate love" or "wanted a black girl to boss them around in bed" or something else racist and degrading.  She wished people could just tell her something nice without pointing out that she was black.  How about we just compliment people for who they are and forget their skin-color-stereostypes?  There are millions of nice things that can be said of all women, and each woman is different -- they are all beatifully and wonderfully made; they are individuals.

Do not make any moves in his direction.  If he really wants to see his son, he will come to you and ask.  Make him ask you, not through a friend.  That way you will be able to see him face to face and judge his sincerity and truth for yourself.\n\nDo not let him fancy talk you...remember, your number one concern is the welfare of your child.  It may not be in his best interest to see his father if his father will be doing nothing but causing trouble between the two of you.  No child needs be surrounded by troubled parents that can't get along.  Make sure you are both in the right place before sharing your child.  I have already been through all of this.

Sorry this is a brief response: figure out the moles of gas in the reactants side of the equation. 5 moles of oxygen means there are 5 moles of gas. Then use Ideal gas law:\n\nPV = nRT\n\nSo, you know Volume (1500 mL), n (5 moles x molecules of O2 per mole), and T (25C + 273C = 298 K). Calculate P.\n\nFor n:\n5 moles (6.022x10^23atoms/moles) (2 atoms/molecule)\n\nHope that helps....

The subtleties of morality and being 'right' or 'wrong'?

Ok, this is the thing. As far as morality is concerned there is no real right and wrong. That is totally determined by the person who is in the situation. Society has a grander scale on which they see things as right or wrong but then again society doesn't enter into this question.


What are the positives/benefits to women and families, of polygamy - a man having more than one wife/woman?

For the man the positive is more sex and the negative is more PMS to deal with. For the women the positive is they won't have to see and deal with the man every single day, but the negative is they can't form an intimate relationship because she has to share him with other women. If there are children involved they have no positives, but a huge negative because they can't form a close relationship with their Dad because they have to share him with other famlies.

How does global warming cause COLDER weather?

Hi! Global warming causes COLD weather because it makes the ice to melt. Then, the oceanic current slows down, since it's a difference of salt and "sweet" water that makes it run. So, if "sweet" water from the melted ice comes into the current, it's less salty, so it will stop to function. If the current stops, then the continents get colder, because the current is that kept them warm. I hope this helps! Daniel from Romania (sorry for my bad writing skills, but I hope you understand)

ACTS 2: 38 \n \nAn elderly woman had just returned to her home from an evening of Church \nservices when an intruder startled her. She caught the man in the act of \nrobbing her home of its valuables and yelled, "Stop! Acts 2: 38!" (Repent and be baptized, in the name of Jesus Christ so that your sins may be forgiven.) \n  \n  The burglar stopped in his tracks. \n   \n  The woman calmly called the police and explained what she had done. \n   \n  As the officer cuffed the man to take him in, he asked the burglar, \n"Why did you just stand there? All the old lady did was yell a scripture to \n you." "Scripture?" replied the burglar. "She said she had an Ax and Two 38s!" \n   \nPASS THIS ON TO SOMEONE WHO NEEDS A LAUGH TODAY. \n Remember, knowing scripture can save your life in more ways than one. \n\nBIBLICAL GIGGLES\n\n\n\nQ.

your opinion about  the Da vinci code........?

it's a good entertainment but it is filled with falacies, lies and evil.  \n\nthe book is a fiction but the author continued to claim that it is based on historical fact.  what's so funny is that the book can't produce solid evidence of its claims.  on the contrary, there are even more evidence that would show that the book and its basis is bogus.  \n\nCatholics should be concerned about the book because it not only misrepresents their Church as a murderous institution but also implies that the Christian faith itself is utterly false.\n\nOther Christians should also be concerned.  Only some of the offensive claims of The Da Vinci Code pertain directly to the Catholic Church. The remainder strike at the Christian faith itself. If the book's claims were true, then all forms of Christianity would be false (except perhaps for Gnostic/feminist versions focusing on Mary Magdalene instead of Jesus).\n\nIt isn't a defense to say that The Da Vinci Code is a work of fiction. Fiction can't change the basic facts about major historical figures without being subject to criticism. People would be outraged if Doubleday printed a novel portraying Adolph Hitler in a positive light. Christians have a right to be outraged when the basic historical facts about Christ are falsified. The criticism will be even more intense when a publisher releases a book parodying the most sacred beliefs of others in this fashion.\n\nThe author and the publisher  have gone to great lengths to mislead people into thinking that the novel has a historical basis. They deserve especially sharp criticism for this, and when criticism is made they cannot hypocritically hide behind the "It's just fiction" allegation after having made such extensive efforts to convince the reader that it is not "just fiction."

Is Hillary Clinton going to be the next President?

Since these questions usually get answered with explanations of how much people love/hate someone, I thought I'd try to answer this objectively...\n\nI do not think that Hillary will get elected president in 2008 simply because there is such intense dislike of her among conservatives.  I know a lot of people who do not like Bush (or Bush-like Republicans) but DISLIKE Hillary even more. The only way I think she COULD win is if there were a STRONG, serious, third-party contender that had an obvious conservative lean.  I think that Hillary has enough Democratic support to hold that party together while the Republicans would be more easily split.

how can a middle class american citizen , stop this illegal immigration drama?

There is a way to stop it but Americans are too lazy to do it.  Look at how effective the united protests by the Mexicans were?  Americans have a propensity to just sit on their butts and complain without taking any action.  If millions gathered throughout the U.S. to protest illegal immigration, our politicians would take notice and do something fast.  Remember, there is an election coming, and politicians care more about votes than anything else.

i think the tippmanns are the best for three reasons.  the first one is that it is a great beginner gun.  it has 150 feet of accuracy right out of the box. it is also tournament grade right out of the box. second is it is a very reliable gun.  i have banged mine against so many trees and bunkers and it hardly has a scratch on it.  third and best of all its the only one you ll ever need.  as you get better you can upgrade the gun so much you can own those $1000+ guns and still have it cost half as much.

Does the President of the United States have any control over oil prices?

Total Cost of Tax Break: $76.5 billion from 2005-2014\n\nIn this provision, America’s largest energy companies—among the most profitable in the U.S. economy—would succeed in reclassifying energy production as a manufactured good in order to qualify for potentially tens of billions of dollars in new tax deductions. The manufacturing tax deduction has previously only been available to traditional manufacturing industries. The amount of the tax deduction is 3% of a company’s production income in 2005 and 2006; rising to 6% in 2007-2009, and 9% after 2009.\n\nThe total cost of this tax deduction, $76.5 billion from 2005-2014, includes the value of the tax deduction for energy companies and other industries, including movie studios, real estate developers and engineering and architectural services associated with real estate development. It is a safe assumption that energy companies—due to their size within the U.S. economy—will be the largest recipient.\n\nSince 2001, electric power, natural gas and oil corporations have contributed $73 million to federal candidates, with three-quarters of that total going to Republicans. Halliburton is the largest oil field services provider and provides services to Chevron. Bush Sr. was a director of Halliburton. Dick Cheney was Halliburton's CEO. Chevron is the #1 importer of Iraqi oil. Members of the Bush administration planned to oust Saddam and establish control in Iraq since long before the Iraq war. Bush started a war in Iraq. War brings profit to defense contractors. Bush Sr is a director of one of the world's largest defense contractors.    See the circle of greed and profit? These facts show there is a serious conflict of interest with the relationships between the Bush family, the Bush Administration, ChevronTexaco, Halliburton, the Carlyle Group and members of PNAC. The Bush family and friends have been profiting from war and will continue to profit greatly through continued services contracts in Iraq and the controlled flow of Iraqi oil.


OK, first of all, race is all in your head. The differences among members of a so-called "race" are greater than the differences between one so-called race and another. \n\nOn the other hand, racism is very real behavior, even if the differences between races that inspire racism have no scientific basis. In an effort to track the success of government efforts to combat racism, the US federal government has established five official races: \n\n1) American Indian or Alaskan Native\n2) Asian\n3) Black or African American\n4) Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander, \n5) White \n\nThe US federal government also recognizes two official ethnicities: \n\nA) Hispanic or Latino\nB) Not Hispanic or Latino\n\nThe definititions for these groups are found in the first link listed below in the "Sources" section. \n\nNow, if you ask people who they are, they either have a tough time putting themselves in these categories, or they don't. Folks in Hawaii often have such complex backgrounds (Portuguese-Hawaiian-Chinese, for instance), that they just shrug and check a box. If you ask them about it, they might say, "It's just a form. It doesn't have anything to do with who I am." On the other hand, children with one Black parent and one White parent find this kind of form much more difficult. \n\nVery often though, even the folks who are pretty sure they belong to just one of these groups are wrong. Recent DNA research suggests that about one-third of White Americans have some fairly recent African ancestry. The Black population in the US seems to have an even greater degree of European and African ancestry. One study looked for known genes with an African origin in the DNA of Black individuals in the US and found none of them in about 5.5% of their sample of that population. \n\nEach of the categories you list has people whose ancestors came from many different countries. The best way to tell who is what is to ask each individual. The US government used to give pictures of eye and nose shape to its census workers to help them tell the difference among races, which is a ridiculous approach. It is much simpler and accurate to merely ask the person.  That's the best truth you will ever get.

What would cause my computer to turn it self off shortly after logging into World of Warcraft.?

I'm assuming it's because the thing is over heating and automatically shuts itself down.  Try installing a water cooling system, that should reduce the core temp quite a bit.   You could also try putting it in a well ventilated area.  One more option, occasionally dust will build up around a heat sink and generate heat causing the computer to THINK it's overheating leading it to shut down.  A 480 watt power supply should be enough to keep it powered.  Your CPU could be over heating, a liquid cooling system or a CPU fan that you put on the mother board over the CPU would take care of that.  \n\nI have an Alienware laptop, which is considerably different than a desktop, but occasionally while playing games if it's not on a hard surface heat will build up under the computer and it'll shut itself off (but only during games and other laborious tasks).  I've also had the dust issue happen and had to clean out the vents and one of the heat sinks.  After that everything worked fine. \n\nIf the hard drives going out you should get the blue screen of death not a shut down, and usually hardware errors will get you a blue screen if it's an issue with a piece of hardware.  \n\nMake sure you have to correct drivers if you put in a new graphics card, you can download them from the maker's website, just to be on the safe side.\n\nGood luck!  That game rocks!

What is the difference of a DICOT and MONOCOT at a CELLULAR LEVEL? please..please..thank you!?

Dicotyledons or "dicots" is a name for a group of flowering plants whose seed typically contains two embryonic leaves or cotyledons. Flowering plants that are not dicotyledons are monocotyledons, often having one embryonic leaf only.\n\nIt is now accepted, thanks to the Angiosperm Phylogeny Group, that monocotyledons evolved from within the dicotyledons, and as such the latter form a paraphyletic group. This means that dicotyledons no longer are regarded as a "good" group, and the names "dicotyledons" and "dicots" are no longer to be used, at least in a taxonomic sense. The vast majority of the former dicots, however, form a monophyletic group called the eudicots or tricolpates. These may be distinguished from all other flowering plants by the structure of their pollen. Other dicotyledons and monocotyledons have monosulcate pollen, or forms derived from it, whereas eudicots have tricolpate pollen, or derived forms, the pollen having three or more pores set in furrows called colpi.

How many miles per hour does the earth move around the sun?

The average distance from the Earth to the Sun is 149,597,890 km. Therefore in one year the Earth travels a distance of 2*Pi*(149,597,890)km. This means that the velocity is about: \n\nvelocity=2*Pi*(149,597,890)km/ year\n\nand if we convert that to more meaningful units (knowing there is 365 days in a year, and 24 hours per day) we get: \n\nvelocity=107,300 km/h (or if you prefer 67,062 miles per hour) \n\nSo the Earth moves at about 100,000 km/h around the Sun (which is 1000 times faster than the speeds we go at on a highway!)


what are good exercises for love handles?

First of all, love handles are where the body stores excess bodyfat and are not muscle.  The best thing to do to reduce the size of love handles is diet and cardiovascular exercise.  There is no such thing as spot reduction of a body part.  Exercises that work the obliques (the muscle found under the love handles) will only cause the muscle to get larger, while not reducing the amount of fat in that area, making your love handles look larger.  The best thing you can do is just try to do more aerobic exercise combined with an overall strength building program which will effectively increase your resting metabolism and burn more fat (including your love handles).

What is the best way to get a specific girl interested in you?

Women are tricky especially if she know u like her. So play it safe ask her little questions. Let her see that u want to know about her and u hear everything she's saying. And we love it when u remember stuff we've told u a long time ago. That's the way to let her know your listing and she's gonna start asking u questions. Another thing is not to show her to much attention until u know she's wanting to know more about u.

What evidence???  He believes that Tony Blair, the British royal family and various other world leaders are alien lizards.  Because they haven't bothered to deny this and they haven't sued him, he sees this as evidence that what he says is true.\n\nCan you imagine what the reaction of the media would be if Tony Blair sued David Icke for saying that he was a lizard?  How would Tony Blair prove that he wasn't a lizard?  \n\nDavid Icke is an entertaining lunatic.  99% of the time he is a harmless lunatic but the overtones of anti-semitism (the tired old cliches about a worldwide Jewish conspiracy) are disturbing.

The sun's rays hit the Earth's atmosphere, where the light is scattered by nitrogen and oxygen molecules in the air. The blue wavelength of this light is affected more than the red and green wavelengths, causing the surrounding air to appear blue. At sunset, the sun's light passes farther through the atmosphere, deflecting and decreasing the blue in the air. Scattering by dust particles and pollution in the air causes the sunset to appear red.


An average American family, on a camping vacation, is driving across the Southwest toward California. They accidentally pass through an abandoned Air Force test site, and are preyed upon by a family of depraved, primitive creeps who live in the hills.\n\nEarly Wes Craven picture was his second directorial effort after "The Last House On The Left". It's an unpretentious, simple, straightforward rural horror thriller (in the vein of "The Texas Chain Saw Massacre") that provides surprisingly good entertainment. It's not for the squeamish but that disclaimer could apply to any number of horror movies. It's well-paced, twisted fun with a good cast and a group of heroes I could actually root for (although the character of Brenda, played by Susan Lanier, is such hysterical crybaby she'll probably turn some viewers off). It is hurt, however, by an abrupt ending that doesn't tie up all the loose ends.\n\nFor the most part, though, I liked it. At least, you have to admit that it's a better picture than "The Last House On The Left." I also liked it as a chance to see an early performance from Dee Wallace (Stone), who went on to bigger roles in "The Howling", "E.T." and "Cujo."\n\nIt gets an eight out of ten.


Has anyone used Human Growth Hormones (HGH)? Is it legal? How do I get it?

Beware that using HGH tells EVERY cell in the body to grow, not just your muscles.

Beware that HGH is extremely expensive as mentioned before, and most of it (especially the discounted kind) is fake.\n\nJohn

how do i forward an e-mail i've recieved?

When the email is open (you can read what it says), there should be a button called "Forward" for you to click. When you click that button, the entire body of the email will be put into another window and you can put the email address of the person you want to receive it in the "To:" line. If it has already been forwarded several times and you want to get rid of the old addresses that it has already gone through, you can open a new message (the button usually says "Write" or "Compose"), highlight the part of the message that you want to send, right click, left click on "Copy", move to the new message, right click in the new window, and click "Paste".


Who will the Chiefs draft this year??   Do they have a chance to go to the playoffs??

Yes they have a chance to make the playoffs, I would look for the Cheifs to draft a defensive player in the first round, but this depends on who is available when its their turn to draft.  I know they like Johnathon Joseph the cornerback, they are also high on Manny Lawson the linebacker.


When you dream you are flying, do you have to flap your arms like wings to stay aloft, or can you soar at will

I usually soar without flapping my arms. However, I have found that I have very little control over where I fly. Often, I'm trying to get to a specific place that I cannot reach. I can usually see it, but don't know how to get there. It's usually windy and there is often a lot of resistance to the route I'm trying to take. Only once have I had an uninhibited flight in my dream. It was very exhilarating.

What does Chicken-Pox look like in Adults? How long will it last?

Shingles is a painful blistering rash caused by reactivation of varicella, the chickenpox virus. It is correctly known as herpes zoster. \n\nChicken Pox is the primary infection with the virus, Herpes zoster, also called ‘varicella-zoster’. During this widespread infection, which usually occurs in childhood, virus is seeded to nerve cells in the spinal cord, usually of nerves that supply sensation to the skin. \n\nThe virus remains in a resting phase in these nerve cells for years before it is reactivated and grows down the nerves to the skin to produce shingles (zoster). This can occur in childhood but is much more common in adults, especially the elderly. \n\nThe first sign of shingles is usually pain, which may be severe, in the areas of one or more sensory nerves, often where they emerge from the spine. The pain may be just in one spot or it may spread out. The patient usually feels quite unwell with fever and headache. The lymph nodes draining the affected area are often enlarged and tender. \n\nWithin one to three days of the onset of pain, a blistering rash appears in the painful area of skin. Sometimes, especially in children, shingles is painless. \n\nIt starts as a crop of closely-grouped red bumps in a continuous band on the area of skin supplied by one, occasionally two, and rarely more neighbouring spinal nerves. New lesions continue to appear for several days, each blistering or becoming pustular then crusting over. Shingles occasionally causes blisters inside the mouth or ears, and can also affect the genital area. \n\nThe pain and general symptoms subside gradually as the eruption disappears. In uncomplicated cases recovery is complete in 2-3 weeks in children and young adults, and 3 to 4 weeks in older patients. \n\nOccasionally pain is not followed by the eruption - shingles "sine eruptione". \n\nThe chest (thoracic), neck (cervical), forehead (ophthalmic) and lumbar/sacral sensory nerve supply regions are most commonly affected at all ages but the frequency of ophthalmic shingles increases with age. Rarely the eruption may affect both sides of the body. \n\nIn elderly and undernourished patients the blisters are deeper. Healing may take many weeks and be followed by scarring. Muscle weakness arises in about one in twenty patients because the muscle nerves are affected as well as the sensory nerves. Facial nerve palsy is the most common result. There is a 50% chance of complete recovery and in time some improvement can be expected in nearly all cases.


telling people frankly, THE CATHOLIC CHURCH IS WRONG? but what do you think makes it wrong?

What doesn't!?\n\nTo begin with, it teaches something they cannot prove (I'm a teacher, and my students would kill me if I did). Besides, they make you live according to those unproven beliefs. And some of its members don't bother to live according to their own teachings, and the hierarchy of the Church protects them (I'm talking about child abusers, thieves, priests who supported dictatorships, and torture, in Latin America, and so on).\n\nAnd finally, they have power, and they use it to gain influence on governments, and through governments, on people. Not just the Catholic, but everybody else, too.\n\nAnyway, the Catholic Church is not the only one that acts like this.

Is the USA going to go to a war agaings IRAN?

To me, the fact that Bush is investigating Iran because of possible nuclear weapons facilities has nothing to do with terrorism.\n\nEver wonder why the 9/11 hijackers were allegedly from Afghanistan, but somehow we ended up shortly at war against terrorism in Iraq (hm, more oil there....)? It seems pretty clearly to be about the oil. \n\nFirst, we also said we invaded Iraq not only to combat terrorism (with no prove of terrorists from Iraq), and to "free the Iraqi people", which really only destroyed their public facilities and started a civil war. And now suddenly we decide to inspect a neighboring, oil-soaked country for weapons, who are too poor to be making any anyway. Meanwhile, North Korea has confirmed to us that they possess nuclear weapons and would use them, but suspiciously we have no desire to touch them....nothing to gain there!\n\nI feel sorry for people that believe blindly what Bush says to the media and the people, lies that create hatred in our country against the unknown and different. It is quite possible that we will start a war in Iran, but more likely we will just disable them by destroying all they have to get at their oil and not send in what's necessary to take care of the people!

The answer is both yes and no.\n\nNo in the sense that the basic function of a cell phone is to trasmit data (voice in the form of electronic signals inside the cell phone, and as electromagnetic waves thereout), and not to convert raw data into meaningful information, which is the function of a computer.  Thus, you should rather compare a cell phone to a walkie talkie, or a two-way radio, because it works on the principle of receiving incoming voice at a frequency, and sending outgoing voice at another frequency.\n\nHowever, as technology developed, cell phones have become more versatile with new features, and nowadays, most of the cell phones also do conversion of raw data into meaningful information, e.g. in mathematical calculations, inbuilt dictionary (T-9 in Nokia phones), composer, etc.  As such, cell phones can be considered as computers in certain ways, even though computing is not their essential feature. The costlier cellphones have even more features like surfing the internet, etc.  Cell phones also have operating system like computers (Nokia phones use Symbian OS mostly).\n\nA cell phone is not essentially a computer, but a transmitter and receiver built into one.  However, due to its accessory functions which convert raw data into meaningful information, it can be considered a computer.

Steps\n\n   1. Know what good posture is believed to be. Most people think that to "stand up straight" means tensing your back to heave your chest 'in and up', and pulling your head back in to your chest. Not so. The spine has two natural curves that you need to maintain called the 'double C' or 'S' curves, these are the curves found from the base of your head to your shoulders and the curve from the upper back to the base of the spine.\n   2. Proper alignment places your ears loosely above your shoulders, above your hips. Again, these points make a straight line, but the spine itself curves in a slight 'S'.\n   3. Using a mirror, align your ears, shoulder, and hips. You'll find that this doesn't hurt at all. If you do experience pain, look at your sideview in a mirror to see if you're forcing your back into an unnatural position. If so, stop it!\n   4. Do exercises that strengthen the muscles across your upper back and shoulders. These do not have to be strenuous! Try the following, with or without handweights:\n\n          * Align your ears over your shoulders. Raise both arms straight up, along side your ears. Remember to keep your ears aligned! Bend forearms toward shoulders to touch your shoulder blades. Do 10 repetitions with both arms, then alternate 10 reps for each arm singularly.\n          * Align ears with shoulders. Raise both arms out to sides at shoulder length. Hold for a slow count of ten. Slowly lower arms to sides, counting ten as you lower. Slowly raise arms back to shoulder height, counting to ten as you raise arms. Do ten reps, constantly checking your alignment! If ten reps are too many to start, do as many as you can. You should at least feel a slight fatigue in the shoulder muscles.\n          * Be a penguin. While you wait for a webpage to load, toast to pop, or the microwave to beep, place elbows at your side, and touch your shoulders with your hands. Keeping your hands on your shoulders, and your ears aligned, raise both elbows (count one, two) and lower back to your waist (count one, two). Do as many reps as your wait allows. You'll be surprised how much exercise fits into 30 seconds.\n   5. Do stretches. This can greatly help if you find that you have a sore back or neck after a while.\n\n          * Tilt (stretch) your head in all four directions over your shoulders (forward, back, left, right), and gently massage your neck. Avoid rolling in a circle, as it may cause further strain.\n          * On your hands and knees, curl your back upwards, like a cat, and then the opposite. Think about being able to place a bowl in the hollow of your back.\n   6. Repeat the exercises a few times each day. Doing them in the morning helps your body stretch out the muscle lethargy of sleep, and periodically throughout the day helps raise your energy level without a heavy workout. \n\n\nTips\n\n    * You can have someone tape a giant X on your back from one shoulder to the oposite hip. Then put a straight line of tape across your shoulders closing the top of the X. Wear this during the day, to help retrain your back.\n    * Don't tighten up your muscles when you are assuming a straight posture. It will only stress the joints and muscles themselves and this affects the skeleton, therefore your posture and even the way you move and breathe. Try to eventually relax into it but if you experience back pains, stop it! You are probably causing unnecessary muscle tension.\n    * If your head is hanging, you can't be properly aligned. Keep your head at the level that allows you to look directly ahead without having to turn your eyes up. If you cannot do this without feeling tension in your neck, this means you are causing unnecessary muscle tension.\n    * A great side benefit of keeping your head straight, and your ears/shoulders/hips aligned is an improvement in your self-esteem and attitude. If you walk with your head up, you appear more confident, and f


Take them all, if you are allready accepted they wont deny you because of a low AP test score.

Is Complete erectile dysfunction possible at 16? How can it be cured? Are there any home therapies?


Ladies. I am a social worker, would you be negative towards my lack of income?

Only women AFTER the money would be..... I think it's great that you do that and good for you!! BRAVO!  :)  Women in general want to feel 'provided for' even if they work too.. so in a sense I understand why you ask.  At the end of the day though, most women will be won with their hearts, not by your wallet!  Don't worry, it will be fine :)


Any ideas for a project on toxic chemicals?

Any of the heavy metals, or benzene products would be excellent topics. If you attempt to present a case on a chemical that's too obscure you'll have a difficult time finding enough research/clinical trials to support your claim. Peruse the EPA website to get some other ideas.


Does a notorized dated document over rule an earlier dated trust document or do we need a lawyers document?

The most current legal document is recognized by the court in most states. You can call the clerk of court (family court) to verify this for your county or state. There are plenty of on-line forms or forms that you can buy that you can complete and have notarized and witnessed. You can ammend a form to make null and void, any and all documents dated previous to (then add the current date of the document). Again, check with the clerk of court, as they will have the most accurate information.

How many people do you know that actually enjoy being in a quiet place?

i know quite a few... perhaps because i surround myself with like-minded people.  \n\nfor me (and for them) it usually consists of quiet outdoors places... away from four wheelers, speedboats, lawn mowers, and snowmobiles.  the very BEST is to leave the motorized world as far behind as possible.  the silence is deafening at first, almost a roar in your ears, but gradually you get used to the still small sounds... wind in pine trees, running water, chirping birds and buzzing insects.\n\ni can think of at least 6 people who would love to be out there with me... and none of us would say a word.

If I have a tax refund coming and I file for it after Apr 17, what happens???

No penalty.  The government only cares about late tax returns if you owe them money.  If they owe you money, they're very gratefull for the interest free loan.  Expect to get your refund later than everyone else who filed their returns on time (maybe an extra week).


I'm going to the eyedocter tomorrow what should I expect? This will be my fourth pair of glasses.?

Truth is it's normal to have to change glasses regularly because your eye power keeps changing - if you wear your current glasses alot - it will probably help and your power will go down - hence a new pair for your new needs... if you don't wear your glasses much then it's probably reasonable that your power will go up and a new pair is in sight. I've been wearing glasses since I was 4 - and trust me I've had more than 4 pairs of glasses - think of it as a chance to revamp yourself... don't worry, often if you take good cair of your eyes (wear ur glasses often) and don't be too vain... sometimes you get cured... and if that doesn'thappen there's always laser eye surgery when ur older.


what are some long term consequences to high sodium?

Your body will accumulate water in order to dilute the excess salts you have taken.  This added volume of liquid in the blood stream is what increase blood pressure.  High blood pressure will then bring on all sorts of health problems from headaches to heart failure including brain damage, anuerisms, kidney failure as well as damage to other organs.\n\nCheck this out..\n\nhttp://www.medterms.com/script/main/art.asp?articlekey=3846

What is the best soccer ball to use/buy?

You must get a ball that is good for you.  \nMany companies make a good ball.  First, you need to buy the correct size (the size that your league uses for your age).  Most leagues start using a size 5 at the U-12 level I think.  I can't remember!!\n\nThe second choice is your budget.  Whatever your budget, there will still be choices in your range.\n\nNext, brand preference.  Basically, a 30 dollar ball is a 30 dollar ball, so it then is up to you on brand (Adidas, Nike..), style (color, number of panels..).  Many are more loyal to Adidas than they are to Nike, simply because Adidas has been in the business so much longer.  Nike makes quality products for every sport, and there is no exception with their soccer equipment.  For the longest time, I was loyal to Adidas, and I still buy about 80% of my soccer stuff from them.  \n\nBottom line:  If you are more concerned about value than anything else, wait for sales, and then get a steal! (Soccer.com always satisfies!)\n\nLastly, if money wasn't an issue, I'd buy the World Cup ball (finals, gold) from the makers of Adidas, because it'll be the best in the world in quality, and also for it's traditional value.  (I'm not sure that Nike makes a ball in this price range / quality range, because they weren't chosen to make the ball for the Cup.  Though Adidas is a German company, and therefore an obvious choice for the official ball of the World Cup, it is worth mentioning that it has been the official ball of the World Cup for as long as I can remember.)

What is a GOOD temporary relief for a toothache?

First of all, NEVER hold aspirin on a tooth. It contains acid which will damage the enamel of your tooth.\n\nThere are community centers to help low-income people with dental emergencies. If you have an absess, you need to seek professional help now. The infection can spread to the rest of your system and mean serious health problems.\n\nCall your local dental society. If you are in the US, try looking up your state dental society and ask them for community outreach programs. Chances are, there is a sliding-scale clinic which can help you for a reduced fee.\n\nIf you had a broken arm, you'd find a way to fix it, right? This is just as serious.


Does long distance realy work..........im not to sure?

it can. it really depends on how dedicated and determined you are to make it work. i've seen it work out pretty well, and i've seen it crumble completely. i've seen people in long distance relationships get married, and i've seen them cheat on each other because they're lonely and frustrated and weak.\n\nbasically, if you want to make it work, and they want to make it work, you can make it work. you might as well try because all that not trying means is that you lose them for sure, and you lose them now instead of later.

In your opinion do you think there is such a thing as Global Warming?

Absolutely.  Interestingly enough, though, there is also such a thing as particle refraction.  This is the pollution particles (mostly sulfates) in the air forming droplets and mixing with clouds.  These smaller particles reflect more light than unpolluted drops, therefore refracting much light and warmth from the earth.  This is referred to as global dimming.  Global dimming actually helps to balance out the global warming.  If we were to somehow end all particle pollution, then the earth would warm at a faster rate.  Without the global warming, the particle pollution would eventually freeze us out.  Therefore, if we end either process of pollution, we must end both or the earth will suffer grave consequences.  If you want more proof of global warming, investigate the hurricane trend of the last few years.  We have had an increase in the frequency of hurricanes because the ocean waters are warmer--check National Geographic, I remember an article in August or September of last year.

If God is Love then would it follow that Love is God?

unconditional, agape love would constitute God, yes.  however, in english we only have one word for love.  we use it to describe the relationship between too many things.  "i love fruit salad" is one example.  yes, fruit salad may be good, but  would you do anything for it?  die?  "greater love does not exist than this: one lays down his life for his friend."  we need to examine what we are calling "love".  1 corinthians 13 gives a complete definition of true love.  this list also can be used to define God and His characteristics.  therefore, yes i do agree, love is God, God is love.  for without God, can anyone truly love?

Who should pay for the immigration lawyers for the undocumented workers: Each state or the federation?

The Federal Government should pay for all of it.  I never voted an okay for any illegal, I don't care where they came from to come here and get hand outs.  Government wants to okay that, let them pay for it.  Mexico can pay for half.  When I needed medical help, and could not afford it, I tried to get some state aid.  They just about laughed me out of the place (state ran agency)  My father fought in WWII, my brother in Nam I have worked and paid taxes for 40 years.  Yet I can get no help.  Maybe I should go to Mexico.  Think they would help me?


What are some different types of learning styles?

there are three main types of learning styles- audio, visual and kinaesthetic. audio learners learn through listening (music, talking, debates etc). visual learners learn through seeing (films, disgrams and demonstrations etc) and kinaesthetic learners learn through doing things. they learn from fieldtrips, activities that involve them doing a hand on approach. hope this helps x


Which do you think is funnier, the BBC version of "The Office" or the US version?

Both are funny in their own ways. David and Gareth trying to carry the wheel chair bound employee out during a fire drill and giving up half way leaving her on the landing was awesome...however, when Michael burns his foot on the George Forman grill or when Dwight sings "Ryan started the fire" to Billy Joel's We didn't start the fire...that's good TV. To close to call :)


How  do countries reconcile after a war?

In the past, this was not an issue. the loser was slaughtered wholesale. Rome was one of the first (or most successful) at assimilating conquered peoples. Successful assimilation means you must force, or entice, the conquered peoples to adopt your language, culture and customs. what naturally happens then is a blend of the two - which is also one reason that Rome fell (among many). Because if you are too successful as a conqueror, then you lose critical mass for your own culture.  \n\nYou could draw a parallel with America since they are (or have been in the past) so successful that they draw peoples from different cultures at such a rate that the 'original culture' is overwhelmed with external cultures [like cuban, mexican, other South American cultures, Canadian, and finally Asian influx (including India) via H1B visas and other legitimate immigration].\nForget about crimes and criminality - that is a temporary conflict between two cultures. Think longer term - like 100 yrs being equivalent to one year. Then you will see your own answer to your question. \n\nStudy the past or be condemned to repeat it. In particular, start with Persia, Egypt and progress through the Germanic tribes and the Normans.  You will get a fantastic view into man's inhumanity and the temporal nature of what is considered criminal and grotesque in a given culture.  You may also come to a realization that every species has its time at the top and then some other species will correct the last 'correction'.  We won't be the last.

If the correlation coefficient is positive then the slope must also be positive. Is this statement T/F and why

The statement is true.  The formula for the slope of the regression line is\n\nr(SDy)/SDx\n\nSince SDy and SDx are always positive, then the only thing that determines the sign of the slope is r, the correlation coefficient.  So if r is positive, then the slope is positive; if r is negative, then the slope is negative.


I find your situation quite bizarre. How can you be in the US without a permanent resident status ?\n\nWhat status do you have ? Are you illegal ?\n\nOnce a foreigner marries a US citizen, they automatically qualify for a permanent resident status but this is not automatic. The US citizen spouse must petition the USCIS for a permanent resident status for their immigrant spouse.\n\nAfter 3 years of marriage the immigrant spouse qualifies for  US citizenship. The immigrant spouse must apply with the USCIS for citizenship.\n\nNow, if you've been married for 6 years you do qualify  for citizenship but only if you were a permanent resident for at least 3 of years. \n\nIf you don't have permanent residency you must first apply for that and after 3 years you are eligible for citizenship. There is no way to bypass directly to citizenship.\n\nTime spent in the US in a status other then permanent resident does not count toward citizenship !\n\nRESPONSE:\n\nWow this truly amazing. I have never heard of anybody waiting for so long. The most I have ever heard of anybody waiting is like 15 months ( PR based on marriage).\n\nDo you have a receipt of your applicaltion indicating the date that you applied on ?\n\nI can tell you with definte certantity that they lost your application, it's simply impossible to last so long.\n\nHave you tried contacting the National Customer Service Center 1-800-375-5283 ? Do not speak with the operator the first answer the phone (they are clueless), insist that you want to speak to an immigration officer (they are available to answer calls but it's hard to get to them)\n\nI also think it would be a good ideea to contact an immigration lawyer, they usually have contacts and can find out more info.\n\nI think you should really put a lot of pressure on them, call them everyday if you can !!! This is simply unacceptable ! Don't count on them or belive it when they tell you you just have wait.\n\nLastly, I'm just curios, how were you able to work all this time ? Did they give you an Employment Authorization Card that you kept renewing ?

Hi, I have some suggestions. You can go fishing. That is always a winner for everyone. When it gets warmer out the kids, and you can swim, if it's permitted. You can go bowling. Or skating. And at home, you can cook out, and invite friends over. there's the library. there are other things, I'm sure, but there are a few suggestion. I hope you all agree on something, and have a great time, whatever it will be.


The more you suffer, the more you learn, but what about if you die?

It is expedient to learn how to be completely happy and learn wisdom to know the difference between suffering and learning. they are two different things or state of the mind.  When you suffer you only learn about the pain or hurt. \n\nTrue learning, however, is TO THINK AND GROW RICH.  A man's or woman's highest happiness is found in the bestowal of benefits on those he loves; love find its most natural and spontaneous expression in giving. The man or woman who has nothing to give cannot fill his place as a husband(wife) or father(mother), as a citizen or as a man(woman).  It is in the use of material things that a man(woman) finds full life for h(is)er body, develops h(is)er mind, and unfolds h(is)er soul.\n\nIf we die, the only thing we can bring with us is the knowledge, intelligence and character we developed into in  this lifetime. After death there is still learning.  For learning is not done in a day or a week, or a year, or even during a lifetime.  Learning is a continuous process in this world and in the world to come.

BLACK MAGIC-what is the difference between Witchcraft & Vodoo? Do you believe it can have any power over us?

Black magick is very rare.  Contrary to popular belief, VooDoo, Voodou, or Hoodoo, is not an EVIL religion that only curses people with voodoo dolls.  In fact most of the Voodoo rituals are for health and fertility.  \n\nYes those rituals do exist in almost every form of Witchcraft, but they are rare and hard to perform.  In most cases you wouldn't receive any kind of Curse on you unless you really ticked someone off.  \n\nIf you are worried that you may have been cursed or someone is casting spells against you there are some simple steps you can take.  There are various herbs that can protect you from things like this for example Tarragon and Aloe.  \n\nIf it is serious you can go to the website below to find a local coven that is willing to bless you.


Is there a site where u can enter ur comp. model # and C a listing of possible compatible upgrades?

go to www.crucial.com.  On the right hand side, there is a program that scans your whole computer.  complete the scan.  It will let you know what your system's capabilities are and what you can add.\n\nEdit - All hardware is NOT compatible.  You need to know what your motherboard configuration is.  If you have an AGP slot and get a PCI-E video card, then it's worthless. Also if you upgrade your ram, you need to get the right RAM or else your computer will go haywire on you.


LMFAO you think this pic is funny or wat?


why infinity^0 is considered as an indeterminate form?

We say that a it is indeterminate because if we have two functions, f and g such that:\n\n   lim (x->oo) f(x) = infinity\n   lim (x->oo) g(x) = 0\n\nthen we know nothing about:\n\n   lim (x->oo) f(x)^g(x)\n\nThat is, this third limit can be any value.\n\nFor example, given a real number A>=1, if we let f(x) = A^x and g(x) = 1/x, then obviously, f(x) converges to infinity, g(x) converges to 0, and f(x)^g(x) converges to A.\n\nIt's important to note that mathematicians aren't trying to be difficult, but often use terms carefully to have a precise meaning.  The phrase 'indeterminate' is different from 'undefined.'\n\nFor the person who says infinity to any power is indeterminate, you are wrong.  The form:\n\n    infinity^R\n\nis determinate if R is a non-zero real number.  If R is negative, then this 'form' is always zero.  If R is positive, this form is always infinity.  This means that if we have two functions f and g so that:\n\n   f(x) -> infinity\n   g(x) -> R\n\nthen f(x)^g(x) -> 0 if R<0, infinity if R>0, and indeterminate if R=0.

Isn't this one of life's biggest questions?  Ultimately it is through your day to day choices as to whether you have a good life or not.  For example, if you make bad or questionable choices at work and end up getting fired, well, that's your fault.  You, however, have no control over other people's ability to make choices for themselves.  Sometimes unfortunately, other peoples stupid mistakes affect us and then we have to deal with them.  If you're in a good relationship, then you chose well.  If your future looks bright, keep it that way by always looking at the bright things.  If you're "ultra-depressed" something tells me that you are not a "cup is half full" person.  Try being optimistic for a change.  When something goes bad, try to find the good things in your life.  I'm married and when things get financially tough for my husband and me we try to look at what we do have instead of the things we don't have: we are healthy, we have food on the table, we have each other, etc.  I know it sounds so lame, but let me tell you, I am a much happier person when I count my blessings instead of being the victim.\n\nI have a friend who has crap thrown her way ALL the time.  I've never seen someone have to deal with as much as she does and most of it is stuff that is completely out of her hands (she has multiple schlerosis, can't EVER have kids, husbands job is crap, etc.).  But she is the most upbeat person I have ever met.  She never complains when it would totally be in right to do so.  She always worries about other people's simpler problems.  She's pretty amazing.  I wish I could have the same outlook and understanding that she apparently has on life.  Maybe try it.\n\nWell, good luck with your life!
