My best friend, a wonderful girl, but a flake, says she is having a clandestine affair with a Marine. She lives in the South, where we are from. She wants to use my family's vacation home down there for a "tryst". I think from what she is saying that he is going to "sneak away" from his service a weekend. She says he is married but in the process of divorce and doesn't want to give his wife any more ammunition or embarrass her. I don't believe that a Marine is having an affair but she is given to problematic/complicated relationships (she dated a Black guy in high school kept a secret from her parents; married a man who used someone else's identity; went to Saudi Arabia and got stuck there and guy was turned down to live in the US) and she has never lied to me before. So what I am asking is, is this possible, and should I let her use my family's vacation home? Should I alert the Marines if he comes there? I wouldn't even consider doing this but she has done so much for me.

Although I was an economics major in college, I can't figure out how the Czechs seem to artificially keep prices high here in Prague. A typical salary here is often only $800 - $1,000 a month, but a normal size bottle of coke, it is $1.50, higher than in the U.S. Clothes cost a fortune, way more than in U.S. Average casual shoes are $100 or more.

Even small, depressing apartments are grossly over priced. A tiny, two bedroom apartment (75 sq. meters) that is a 15 -20 minute tram ride from the center can cost $1,000 - $1,400 per month. It doesn't make any sense.

People tell me they are just catering to tourists, but I am looking at the same apartments a Czech citizen would. The prices are ridiculous. If someone has a rental property, they won't sell it because they can make so much.

How are they keeping the prices artificially elevated? There is not a shortage of housing here. Some apartments stay vacant many months, but the owners won't discount them.

Okay, I keep seeing posts where the Atheists bash the Christians, yet the Atheists claim the Christians are far worse at this. Personally, I think it's because we notice the posts that we feel are more offensive to us rather than those people on "our" side of an issue.

So, let's just take a survey. On Tuesday at 6pm EDT on 4/10/2007, do you feel that the bashing goes on way too much. If so, who do you feel is doing most of the bashing?

Short of having "police" watching every post, how do we get this to stop?

Can we ever get along???

I am totally lost on this problem. Could somebody please assist me? Thank you very much!

The planets move around the sun in elliptical orbits with the sun at one focus. The point in the orbit at which the planet is closest to the sun is called perihelion, and the point at which it is farthest is called aphelion. These points are the vertices of the orbit. The earth's distance from the sun is 147,000,000 km at perihelion and 153,000,000 km at aphelion. Find an equation for the earth's orbit. (Place the origin at the center of the orbit with the sun on the x-axis.)

Here's all I have so far:

(x^2 / a^2) + (y^2 / b^2) = 1

so...

(x^2 / 2.25 x 10^16) + y^2 / ???) = 1

Basically, I need help on the ??? part. Thanks again!

I guess I could take the rad cap off and add two fittings, one for a vacuum tester (it also works as a pressurizer), and one for a bicycle pump inner tube stem, then just pump her up to 15 lbs. and wait. Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Vince

Christianity claims that Isaiah chapter 53 refers to Jesus, as the "suffering servant."

In actuality, Isaiah 53 directly follows the theme of chapter 52, describing the exile and redemption of the Jewish people. The prophecies are written in the singular form because the Jews ("Israel") are regarded as one unit. The Torah is filled with examples of the Jewish nation referred to with a singular pronoun.

Ironically, Isaiah's prophecies of persecution refer in part to the 11th century when Jews were tortured and killed by Crusaders who acted in the name of Jesus.

From where did these mistranslations stem? St. Gregory, 4th century Bishop of Nanianzus, wrote: "A little jargon is all that is necessary to impose on the people. The less they comprehend, the more they admire."

I just received the latest issue of Pan Gai and there is an article in there about "Indo-Pagans"...people who are Pagan that are influenced by Hindu spirituality. I used to be a Celtic Pagan (because my ancestry is in UK) but worshipping the Celtic deities never really felt right to me...until one day I was just struck by Ganesha and I felt the right path had been placed in front of me.
NOW...my question.....what do you think of blending Paganism with Hinduism, which in my mind is the Grandmother/father of Paganism to begin with! I understand with other Pagan traditions there is no current recognized religion, but as Hinduism is alive and well and thriving, why would you want to lessen it by including only a portion of it into your already existing Pagan beliefs and making up a name for it? It would be like someone wanting to have a St Francis statue on their Pagan altar so they call themselves a Cath-Pagan...do you see what I mean? I'd really appreciate your thoughts on this!

I am only 18 years old, and so is my boyfriend. I know through a lot of experience that I will never find anyone that will treat me as well as he does or find someone that I will love more than I love him. We've talked about marriage before, but my friends think I'm crazy to even think about it with college ahead of me and my whole future to keep in concideration. I don't know what I should do.

Surely it's worth trying, if there really was a God there should be some evidence of his existence, shouldn't we be looking for it?
