I got this guy i recently started dating. he has everything i like in a guy, yet he is 8 years older than me. we have a lot in common but i just keep worrying about his age. i feel like a hyppocrite cuz i always warn my friends and cousins not to get involved with older men and now im in this situation. im not attracted to him but i like who he is inside. i don't know what i should do. the guys that i meet that are around my age are losers. older men always hit on me all the time. should i just leave him alone or give him a chance?

Two days ago whilst driving with my brother on the Costa del Sol in southern Spain, we both saw a bright, fast-moving, star (shaped and sized) of light travelling extraordinarally fast, vertically down to earth and disappear behind a hill. The hill was approximately 1 mile from us and not very high. We were driving towards the hill and when we rounded it, saw no signs of anything such as physical damage, reflecting light etc.

We argued that it may have been a shooting star, but in broad daylight at 9am? Despite researching possibilities on the internet, we have drawn a blank. Can you help please?

I say yes because the last time these teams played vick was a problem to contain. But this is late in the season and thats when the falcons play bad football. Do u hate the coaching because atlanta should have blew past carolina.
Vick needs a win but that defense isn't stopping anyone. I mean this season is a failure to the falcons because they should have beaten detroit and cleveland.
If they would have beaten cleveland they would have had the playoff spot locked up.
I say that the falcons have alot more to play for and the last time these teams played the falcons won 14-10 and the eagles had McNabb and owens was calm.
Can the falcons beat the eagles this sunday?

I'm using a 3-year-old eMac. Very rarely, and only in Microsoft Word (several versions), the cursor would take on a life of its own, go crazy and race backwards, erasing text as it went. I thought it was a glitch in Word but didn't mind so much because I could always replace what I lost and it happened so seldom.
But today it happened while I was viewing a list of my bookmarks in Safari. At least a dozen bookmarks were erased. I don't even know yet what's gone, but luckily nothing is irretrievable. Still, it shook me up.
Is it time to buy a new Mac?

I've sold a few items on Ebay, but for the most part, I found it a waste of time and money. By the time I pay for the listing fees, the packaging and shipping, it has costed me more than I ended up getting for the item I sold. And I've always kept my shipping charges down due to complaints from people(and as a result, took a loss on the sale). What do you all think? I don't understand how some can make a living off of selling on Ebay?

I use lubrication almost everytime I have sex because I enjoy it. But, I was wondering if it had some affect on fertility. I know that it isn't birthcontrol, but I thought maybe it could water down the sperm or something.

I have a friend who works for a very large international company that will not be named. She has been with them for several years, and is on a special contract. The employees on this contact receive 401K benefits. At some point in 2005, she volunteered to go work a natural disaster for several months. Apparently since she was not working his original job during this time she was not eligible for the 401K but the company paid it to her anyway.

Now-- when she returned to his original post several months later (after working for the same company the whole while)-- they had an accounting error and neglected to pay the 401K the first couple of months. After complaining for months about this $500 she filed a grievance.

Now-- the company has realized she wasn't supposed to get the initial $2500 he got while she was away, and they are taking THAT money back, along with everyone else's who was in the same situation. Can they do this? This money was from between 8-12 months ago.

When i was sleeping last night i pinched my nose with my fingers (so that air passage was closed) and blew (and i dont mean i blew my nose in my hand). I usually do that when my nose is stuffy and it clears it temporarily. Also, when im flying to stop my ears from popping. This time however after the inside of my left ear started to hurt. After some sleep the pain has stopped but my ear feels odd kinda blocked. I also have a very small amount of pain now if their is pressure on my ear.

I am 26 years old and trying to find cute, trendy clothes for work and play. It is weird because I have grown-up shopping at American Eagle, Abercrombie and Pacific Sunwear but now those clothes look a little too young for me... Express is about the only store I shop where the clothing seems to fit my age and style... Any other suggestions?!?

I am agnostic, and I don't believe in any of the traditional religions. I came to my own conclusions about life through my own observations.

I don't believe in a traditional god or gods-style religion. I believe that it would be silly to think we can ever know (in our lifetime) how everything was created, what life is, etc.... To me it would be like trying to teach algebra to an insect. Impossible.

Instead, I believe in kind of a "living universe" kind of theory that doesn't really attempt to explain the existance of a god or gods or any higher power really. I only believe that the universe is kind of like a living entity in which each person, animal, and thing would compare to the cells in the human body, each existing and doing a job that may or may not be contributing to the life of the universe.

I don't believe or disbelieve in anything that isn't provable, I only believe that it can't be known if it can't be proved.

So what do I call this besides my "religion"?

Emerging markets are booming these days, tons of money has been exported by institutional investor to pocket handsome return.
A investment company runs 1000 of different funds some of which are exposed completely to emerging markets & other are 10% to 20%. World's know that these market are highly volatile and extremely risky but had performed well than other caps fund and indexes funds.
As an investment company, they had to manage the risk associated with these markets, so they invest millions of money in hedge funds and derivative markets. The significant question arise here is,how the fund manager of the company can optimize their portfolio under a large universe of hedge funds.
