My boyfriend and I will have been together for a year at the end of this month. We're really close and have been living together for quite some time. He's always been really great at getting me gifts. Last Christmas he gave me a promise ring and for my birthday he got me a puppy! I want to get him something that he'll treasure like I treasure my promise ring and my puppy. I know he's got something up his sleeve for our one year but I want to be able to blow him out of the water on the 23rd with a perfect gift. The only problem is I have no clue what to get him....please help!

Riverside in California is the most boring place in the world. There is nowhere for the single people to hang/have a good time/see live bands or dance...What is going on? what is wrong with this place? are they from another planet? dont they have these NORMAL needs like everyone else around the world?

I find it sad that so many women risk their lives for non-life threatening surgery and spend a fortune in the process.. I can understand why they do it - in order to feel they say more normal/feminine/sexy or whatever but here is the point, if we had grown up on a desert island then none of these women would feel inadequate as they were..

Therefore is it not the cultural definition of what is normal that is at fault and not nature and natural/healthy but small breasts!? Larger breasts have not universally been desirable so it cannot be an innate phenomenon - for example, aristocracts in the 19th century often binded their breasts to appear as flat chested as possible because larger breasts were associated with lower classes/wet nurses etc and also Asian women who are naturally smaller chested do not have to conform to the arian page 3 type narrowly defined form.

I am trying to do the problem below but I don't understand how to do it. Can you please show me how to do it? DON'T give me the answer, explain to me how to get the answer.

Figure: http://img134.imageshack.us/img134/9168/untitled1au7.jpg

Point C moves at a constant rate along semicircle centered at ) from A to B. The radius of the semicircle is 10 cm, and it takes 30 sec for C to move from A to C. Angle COB has measure y radians, angle OCA has measure z radians, and AC = x cm as indicated in the figure.

a) What is the rate of change, in radians per sec, of x with respect to time?

b) What is the rate of change, in radians per sec, of y with respect to time?

c) x and y are related by the Law of Cosines; that is, y^2 = 10^2 + 10^2 - 2(10)(10)cos y. What is the rate of change of x with respect to time when y = π/2 radians?

d) Let D be the area of ΔOAC. Show that D is largest when x = π/2 radians.

i find it baffling that woman continue to desire to get pregnant and have babies when they know what it does to their bodies. most men dont respect women after they've had babies because they say they don, don't look desirable anymore with the weight gain, change in breast shape, lose virgina muscles etc, etc, etc! and yet women keep sacrificing to produce the next generation of humans. i think women around the world should go on strike!

I live in Los Angeles and have been attracted to Hispanic women for a very long time. I don't know if it is just me, but I get the feeling that many are not attracted to Asian men. I have tried for over a decade and am about to call it quits in my pursuit of them. Unbelievable isn't it? I let my parents down and have turned away many young Asian women in the past because I could never truly abandon this preference for a Latina woman. I have what you can call a stable or comfortable living. I got everything going in my life except that I could never find a young Mexican/Latina to be my queen. I don't know what went wrong. On the otherhand, I have seen some Latinas date young black men who have no job or future going for them. I really question society's fairness in the dating game? I know that some other Asian men have also complained about white women not giving them the time of day. Well, my dilemma is the same. I want to ask the Latina ladies why? Por que?
