Recently, i asked if Federer had a forehand drop shot and i received answers suggesting that he doesnt need it since he has every other shot in the book! I beg to disagree.I am a huge fan of Federer's and for two years i have painfully watched him lose to Rafa at the French open.I have carefully examined his performances on clay against Nadal and i think he needs every shot he can execute to beat him this year.Nadal just told the press at d Indian Wells that his fore hand has improved and he is a much better player now than he was in 2005 when he beat Federer on his way to winning the French.Yes,Federer has a def forehand squash shot but i believe he needs an offensive forehand drop shot too.This is a deadly shot on clay any day.His powerful forehand topspins on slow clay have not hurt d mobile Nadal much.I believe he will need to develop his forehand drop shot to be able to stand a chance against Nadal at the French op this yr.This might just give him the edge which we all so desire.

How do you know when you should just ignore family or people bad mouthing you as a couple. He hasn't cheated on you or anyone in the past, and treats you well. So should you in the end give him up because your family doesn't agree with the union?

How much would you fight for someone you love and how would you show people that as long as that person makes you happy, thats all that matters?

*Who teaches your child(ren)?
*What are those person's qualifications to teach?
*Does your child(ren) learn phys ed., art, and music? By what means?
Do you believe that by homeschooling you are giving your child an overall better learning experience?
Do you think your child is ready to face the real world?

I'm most interested in the first three questions.
I don't have children nor do I plan on homeschooling my children. I am simply trying to learn more about it.

Naturally, I'm pale-ish [kinda light honey coloured], but through the years, I've become much darker from sitting out in the sun, sports, etc. It seems weird, but I really hate it. Not only do I stand out completely from all my friends [I just noticed this today after looking at some pictures from a party, I actually started crying], but I also think the darker skin tone looks unattractive on me. It makes me feel, I dunno, uncomfortable. [Actually, I've always known that I was darker than my friends, but today it really hit me. I've never liked having a tan though.]

I figure this has to be somehow possible. I know, I know, many people would kill for a tan [probably all of my friends], but I don't want one.

Any help, comments, or advice you could give would be greatly appreciated. [Even if it's telling me that I'm an idiot for thinking this is possible.]

I cleaned it off last August, just before it went in for a full service. It was quite a mountain of bluey thin particle dust which covered one terminal entirely. I cleaned it off with hot water and a little metal brush, and then applied some battery terminal grease.

I looked again today and the dusty build up has built up again around one terminal... although its greasier this time cause of the grease.

Is this dusty stuff something to be concerned about ? Is it a sign that my battery is on the way out in near future ?

What does that mean? I am always being chased by either a man, men, or a monster. All of them want to hurt me and the chase never stops. The scenery and the scenario always changes but the chasing is always there.

Okay, so I started a fitness and diet program. I know that 3,500 = 1lb of fat. This is where I am confused.

I know exercise burns calories. But when they say you have to drop 3500 calroies for 1 lbs of fat, is that based off the calroies you were eating BEFORE starting a diet or is it based off the calories you are now consuming? Because right now I am at 1200 calories a day. And exercising doing cardio 6 days a week.
So does this mean I need to burn 3500 calories during the week at my work outs in order to drop 1 lb a week?

Can someone help clear this up for me?
Thanks

If you refer the undersigned to "wiki" pedia, or a dictionary, please prove that these sources are correct. Respectfully I respect a consensus among all atheists reg$arding the answer to this question (after all, all atheists presumably adhere - for the same reasons - to the alleged logical fallacy regarding "proof" of a "negative".)

Corollary question: Can words ever be ambiguous? i.e. "proof", "negative"... In law: proof in civil case is different than proof criminal case... And in law, scientists are quite often challenged (read the DAUBERT line of cases.)

The situation is weird. I am currently in Chile as a foriegn exchange student. I have been talking to this girl for months now, and i really really like her, but she got real cold, real fast just about a month ago, and i did nothing to her that she'll let me know. She also told me that she likes a guy from my class, and that he is "nicer than me", and like i said i dont know what the heck i did wrong. So i told her itd be best if we didnt talk as much anymore. I knew it was what i had to for me and for her. But the problem is i cant get over this girl, even though by the sound of it she is over me, cause she asked me if id still help her with spanish, i asked her why with me, cause spanish 1 is just alot of memorization that u can do with anyone, and she answeres cause im fun and a good friend. Idk, how do i get over this girl?

A Believer (B) is trying to save Someone (S):

S-how do I know there's a God, heaven, Jesus, etc.
B-the Bible tells us so.
S-the Bible says a lot of things. Why should I believe the Bible?
B-the Bible says that the Bible was inspired by God, IS the word of God, and that every word is true. (quotes scripture to prove point.)
S-so the Bible says that the Bible is true?
B-correct, and it also says that belief in...is the only way to get to heaven. (quotes more scripture)
S-so, I can't get to heaven unless I believe in what the Bible says, and the Bible is 'fact' because it says it was basically written by God, and it also says that God is never wrong...and that proves that it is true?
B-yes, the Bible is very clear about this.
S-and if I don't believe?
B-you go to hell. The Bible is very clear about that too.

Doesn't anyone see the problem with this? This double-think works on 4 year olds, but I'd like to hear from grown-up believers. Why do you take this at face value?
