If you are looking for a fraction to fall between two other fractions, you can add the denominators and numerators, and the new fraction consistently falls between those. For example, 8/15 and 2/3, then 8+2=10, and 15+3=18, so you get 10/18, or 5/9 which is between those. How does it work? We need a counter-example, if there is one.

I was in an accident on 2/13/07 and I can't walk. I have a broken leg and have to use a wheelchair. My car was totalled and I'm out of work for atleast six months (I might need another surgery). I keep crying all the time, it upsets my fiance and he doesn't understand why I even cry about it. I have a lawyer for my case because the accident was not my fault at all. I don't think he is doing anything for me. I just don't know where to turn, I keep seeing the accident replay in my head and I can't sleep. I don't know what to do anymore and I don't think this is normal. What is your opinion?

ok. i have a 95% GPA in my 9th grade. then i was admitted to this new school, which is a very prestigious public high school and is much more competitive than my previous school. I had a 88% GPA in 10th grade. Now, i am a junior. I had a 84% GPA in the first semester. but I am expecting a 95%GPA in the second semester. Also, i signed up for many AP courses in my senior year. I have a 2100 on the SAT.
If you were a college admission officer, what do you think about my resume?
I transfered to this competitve school because i want to elevate myself and make myself better. I could have chose to stay in my old school and maintaina a perfect average but i felt it was a waste of time in there.

I have acrobat 7.0 and I know how to do it manually. What I want is an automated way to convert a doc to a pdf. Preferrablly I would want some command line way to do this so I can script the input and output. If there is no command line way perhaps some way to link into a acrobat DLL and convert it via VB6? I tried something called PDF converter but it did not convert the PDF correctly with the format being off. I have to convert over 22,000 docs so I can't check each one so I want to be assured that what I get on the output is exactly what is seen as the word document. Why in the world is there no automated functionality with acrobat, at least that I have been able to search for lol. Please Help! Thanks in advance.

I can't get it myself because I can't hold it and drive at the same time. And no one else is here to hold it, either.

Thanks in advance.

Does it depend on the state they were married in? What if the new marriage involves children? If the new marriage is not legal, does anyone know if the military recognizes it still?
Any info appreciated...............

So, since about 3 months 4 months ago I've been experiences frequent urination. At the beginning, it was a little more severe, as I had to go sometimes every 20 minutes, unless I stopped drinking water...even then, I had to urinate eventually.

I went to the dr. and they did a urinalysis, which showed no glucose in it. A few days later I went again, and they did a glucose test (non-fasting), and it came out at 133, which I've read is normal for non-fasting, random tests.

The strange thing is that it goes away at times, there are days when I can drink and eat anything (caffeine, sugar), and I will be okay. Other days, however, if I drink a cup of water I have to go to the bathroom 3 times after it.

I can't really seem to find what makes it better or worse...although during rainy/cold days it seems to appear more.

I havent been back to the dr. because it's expensive and I have no insurance.

I'm afraid I have Diabetes Type 2...but can it appear at intervals?

I am in college on a Local Area Connection, and whenever I restart my computer or do a cold boot I see a black exclamation point inside of a yellow triangle next to the Local Area Connection icon and it says "limited or no connectivity," and the internet does not work. The only way to fix this is for me to disable the Local Area Connection and reboot, then enable the connection again, or just disable it whenever I know I am going to reboot or turn the computer off, then reenable it when I turn it back on. Does anyone know what is causing this to happen? How do I fix it?

There is overwhelming evidence that Bush and his klan have committed numerous crimes against humanity and is undoubtedly guilty of numerous impeachable acts. Why doesn't the House of Reps, the only government entity capable of impeachment, do something about this rogue administation?

I asked before if I could use a Dell Windows XP installation disc on a Compaq. One answer was no because it has a product key code. The thing is that this installation disc has never even been opened, let alone installed. Can I install it in my Compaq now. Thanks again.

Can you debunk these facts about Global Warming?

We've all heard the stories, reported as indisputable fact: The last century or decade is just about the hottest the world has ever been. Carbon dioxide from burning gasoline and coal is blamed. Unless their solution is enacted right now, temperatures will rise terribly in the next century. Icecaps will start to melt, coasts will flood, storms will get worse, diseases will spread, animals will die, and more. And it's all because of us Americans.

The best lies contain a measure of truth. Yes, carbon dioxide in the air has increased in the last century due to the use of fossil fuels. Yes, global average temperature has increased 0.8 degrees F in the same century. Unfortunately, the temperature increase came first: most of the temperature increase was before 1940, and most of the new carbon dioxide was added after 1960. Would you trust a "scientist" who said the result came before the cause?

There are other problems, as well. Solar activity may be the cause of the world temperature changes. The global warmers can't explain why satellites show no temperature change in the past 20 years. The computer models that predict disaster in a century have been completely wrong for the past 20 years. And no one can agree on the side effects.

Scientific facts actually helped unravel the treaty last year. Carbon dioxide is removed from the air by various natural and manmade processes, and world leaders couldn't agree on how to credit for this. No one wanted the U.S. to get credit for removals of carbon dioxide, so negotiations faltered.

Most scientists use facts and logic to reach conclusions. It's no surprise that over 17,000 scientists and engineers have signed a petition calling for rejection of the Kyoto treaty. This overshadows any collection of scientists that have endorsed the treaty.

The global warmers have failed to prove that man has caused a problem. This hasn't stopped them from demanding we act, and act now.

mean that i can't afford to take care of a pet. the only reason i can't pay up front for a fee is because i have my money planned out ahead of time for the month. i have cut out certian things i used to do that cost money to be able to care 100% for the animal. so for any of you to judge that is wrong. college makes ya have to spend money wise. thats why i want to adopt. monthly costs is not an issue.
