The numbers 2, 3, 5, 7, and 13 are placed on a number line. For any integer x, its "remoteness" is the sum of the squares of its distance to each of the five numbers. For example, the remoteness of 10 is 8² + 7² + 5² + 3² + 3² = 156. What integer has the smallest remoteness?

Other than massage, cannot afford that. I get such bad muscle tension that it will wake me up at night and my chest will hurt. I do have a lot of stress but I need to find a way to make my shoulders relax, it is very painful sometimes.

I've known my friend for about 5 years now. We started getting closer when I really liked her, which was about 2 years ago. She turned me down at the time because we were too good friends. So I stopped at the beginning of this year, yes it was that long. However recently my feelings for her have started up again. She knows this and a few weeks ago told me that she actually likes me a bit too. I was pleasently surprised but she also says she doesn't know whether she can see us like that. We're very close as friends, we both like each other, but she can't see us like that, I can kind of understand what she means but I'd still like to give it a try. She's not the type to lie or mess with my head, so do you think I have a chance with her? Would she ever see us like that do you think?

Are there any fortune tellers out there that can tell me what decision to make? i've been offered a job that will give me more money every month, which i need, but i'll be driving all day, every day. or should i stay at the job i have now as receptionist which is boring, but it's a job. i need someone to tell me what to do and how i can resign from my current job if i do decide to take it. they want me to start 8 January 2007. the reason why i say fortune teller, is because i need a true and honest answer.

Please.... i need to give them an answer soon and dont want to make a mistake.

what are your feelings about this and me?

My boyfriend and I have been together for almost 3 months now. In this time we have only spent maybe at most 4 weekends together and barely speak to each other. I am suppose to be going to his house for Christmas Break (which lasts 3 weeks) but I really just don't even feel the need too. I don't want to hurt him but I feel that for the past 2 monthes he has been to busy to involve me in his life so now I don't see a reason to involve him in mine. And to be honest the only reason why we're even in contact is I have a cell phone which he bought/pays for. Am I being too harsh or are my reasons rational for not wanting to see him?

A 70 year old man went to his doctor's office to get a sperm count. The doctor gave the man a jar and said, "Take this jar home and bring me back a sample tomorrow." The next day the 70 year old man reappears at the doctor's office and gives him the jar, which is as clean and empty as on - the previous day.

The doctor asked what happened and the man explains: "Well, doc, it's like this: First I tried with my right hand, but, nothing. Then I tried with-my left hand, but still nothing. Then I asked my wife for help. She - tried with her right hand, with nothing. Then her left, but nothing. She - even tried with her mouth, first with the teeth in, then with the teeth-out, and still nothing. We even called up the lady next door and-she tried with both hands and her mouth too, but nothing."

The doctor was shocked! "You asked your neighbor?" the old man replied, "yep, but no matter what we tried we couldn't get the DARN jar open!"

My parents were married for 31 years. They separated when I was 16, and 4 years later, the divorce is final. In the beginning my mom cried alot, and I felt like I had to stay with her all the time to take care of her, while my father went out partying. 4 long years later, My mom and dad are able to talk and have dinner, and my relationship with my dad is great. My mom invited him to spend Thanksgiving with us (and my mom's family) this year. When my aunt found out she threw a fit, part of the reason was because she never got along with him, and the other part is she hates him for leaving his family. So even though my mom and I forgave him and moved on, my aunt has not. Is it fair to invite my dad if it pisses off the rest of the family? I really don't want to choose!

Then why does he use angels to do his bidding or delivering messages to morals instead of doing it himself.
