Ok here is my situation. I have been working at my current job for about a year. I have a colleague that calls in sick on average about 5 times a month. In addition to calling in sick he also has jury duty, dr appts, dentist appointment, his kids are sick, his dog is sick, his sitter is sick. Come on! I tried to be sensitive at first. Maybe he has some fatal disease etc. But his excuses vary. I reached my breaking point when he schedules a dr appointment 58 miles away from our office for 11 am ( we live in a large metropolitan area with lots of drs) Comes in at 1:30 pm and then takes a lunch at 2:30 p.m. AND then leaves around 6 and tells me he is coming in late the next day because he had to work late. HELLO you came in at 1:30 p.m. (and yes this is a 9 to 5 job). He is just the utter slacker and noone seems to care. Any advice thoughts? Why is he employed? Who tolerates the BS?

I just took the test and I'd put on the form that I was testing for the AF... now I keep hearing about how it's gonna be harder to get into the AF because of the current situations... could I just spontaneously switch over to say, the Army or whatever? Because I want what's best for me and I want what will help me succedd in life and get further.

I have a 2002 VW Jetta (turbo).. and today it started to lose power and vibrating in second gear going up a steep hill. The check engine light also flashed a few times. After the steep hill it was ok (I didn't accelerate hard anymore to make sure I don't damage anything). Any idea what this could be?

Also, I noticed after going into 1st or 2nd gear it felt a bit jerky.

Thanks

I sometimes fantasise about killing my Boss. In fact I've gone further and I am now chasing him through the Afterlife with a Sword and a Meat Hook.

Diesel? SUV? An older car with no catalytic converter? I was just wondering. I think that an old car with a V8 engine that is out of tune and doesn't have a catalytic converter would be the worst. Does anyone know where I can buy a car like that? I want more global warming! It's freezing here! Temps are going to be way below freezing this weekend!

I met this georgeous girl in a bar last weekend, we got chattin, hit it off and exchanged phone numbers. 2 days later we went out on a date and it was great, we really got on, i rang her that night to make sure she got home safely and i mentioned i would call her later in the week to see how she was and if she wanted to go out again sometime. I txted her 3 days after the date to see how she was, there was no response, i then rang her the following night to see how things were, still no respnse, then again twice over a 3 hour period and still just ringing away. She was 5 years younger than me and she did mention she had'nt been in a relationship for a year and a half,and that her previous relationship was a bit messy. I get the impression she had second thoughts and is probaly not interested in me. Ive decided not to get in contact with her again, i'll let her decide if she wants to get in touch with me. I really liked her though so im a bit gutted.
what went wrong? Help pleaze guys???

It seems that most women are more careful, and less likely to speed or drive like jack-a-s-s-e-s-s, like doing stunts. You can't put put on any makeup or talk on the phone while riding, but is that a good thing (safetywise) or a bad thing (inconvenient for you).?????

The USA
The UK
China
Germany
Russia


Which one do you think. I think the UK. Why you ask? Well because Britain is involved in -

The United Nations ( Major Player )
The European Union ( Major Player, Most powerful nation in it )
NATO ( Major Player )
British Commonwealth ( The leader )

Now im not asking who is more powerful but who has the most say. The USA has no say what so ever on the EU, infact the EU has alot of power over the USA in terms of business and US exports. The commonwealth may not have any political power but many nations join because they want to have a system similar to Britain and would like the help we can provide. The EU, although all votes are equal, Britain, France and Germany have a little more power in the fact they are the big 3. Britain is the biggest of the 3 aswell. NATO, only the USA from the west can claim more power than Britain and in the UN the same applys.

Most will say the US and no body will think its any of the other 3 no doubt

1.
The photons travel with the speed of c=1.
At the speed of c=1 a photon does not has age.
It's time is virtually a dead stop.
2.
According to quantum theory, the particle's mass increases
at approaching to the speed of light quantum.
And at achievement of this speed,
the particle's mass becomes infinite.
But the quantum of light is real particle and
its mass is particular and not infinite.
How to understand this contradiction?
And why the quantum of light has such magic
constant speed of motion с = 1 ?
The scientists invented an artful way to explain it :
the quantum of light does not possess the mass of rest
because it always in motion.
All other material particles have the mass of rest and
only quantum of light has m = 0.
Is it possible?
????
The Soviet/Russian academic S. Vavilov suggested an
interesting idea. In his book 'Isaac Newton' he wrote.
The force, according to the Newton,s Second Law,
is equal to : F= ma.
This force is possible to consider as absolute independent
quantity - impulse. When in case with light quanta
the impulse is equal to: mc.
He continued.
Let us now imagine that light quanta falls on a black body,
and it absolutely absorbs this light quanta
( it means light quanta stops).
Then, according to the Lebedev,s law, light quanta
renders pressure on the black body: E/c.
Therefore it is possible to write: mc=E/c.
It means that according to Classic physics the stopping
light quanta has rest (potential)mass (potential energy):
M=E/c^2 , (E=Mc^2).

What is your opinion?
