A month ago I quit a job I had for 11 months because I was being treated poorly by the CEO and the vice president( my work not being noticed, having 7 years experience with this certain job and being extremely underpaid by knowing a co-worker with only 2 years experience was getting paid $4 dollars per hour more, being told I would get a raise after the first of the year and then being told I wouldn't because they didn't have the money to pay me more but 2 days later asked a part time employee if she could work more hours and 2 weeks later another part time employee started full time, I was ingnored by both the CEO and the Vice President when I came in the office or vice versa and when they left they didn't say bye but did to the others in the office) It all added up over the months and I couldn't take another day there being treated like that. I can't tell that to a person who is interviewing me. What is the best way to answer this question without being asked more?

Today I heard about a Renaissance artists that was accused of murder. He made such good sculptures that people thought he killed people and bronzed them. I also heard about an artist that would paint people and the person would die about a week later.

Do you know what the names of these two artists were?

Please help, don't know how to approach this problem, but I do know it works under the principle that chemical reactions involve a change in volume. I know that PdeltaV is work done by the system against the atmosphere... and the ideal gas law might fit in somewhere...

Ok, So I stink, and the problem is, I don't know why!
I'm 12 years old and I just don't know what to do...please help!
I take a shower every day, change my underwear every day, never wear the same clothes twice, they always smell good, but yet every time I go to school I still hear everyday "It stinks!" And I know it's me because first, everyone starts saying that and look at me and make jokes, and I feel miserable and hurt, and because this is my second school this year, and I have the same problems. It wasn't always like this, it was only when I reached puberty, from then on I always feel insecure and unconfident in everything and it is ruining my social life,because I can't make alot of friends.
It just really hurts me because I try so hard and I still fail, and I hate it. It's like I'm cursed. I even went into depression earlier this year because I didn't know how to handle it and I absolutley dread going to school. I'm extremely sensitive and want to be cured of this, plz help

Is this the right way to talk to my son about the war?
Q: Daddy, why did we have to attack Iraq?
A: Because they had weapons of mass destruction.
Q: But the inspectors didn't find any weapons of mass destruction.
A: That's because the Iraqis were hiding them.
Q: And that's why we invaded Iraq?
A: Yep. Invasions always work better than inspections.
Q: But after we invaded them, we STILL didn't find any weapons of mass destruction, did we?
A: That's because the weapons are so well hidden. Don't worry, we'll find something, probably right before the election.
Q: Why did Iraq want all those weapons of mass destruction?
A: To use them in a war, silly.
Q: I'm confused. If they had all those weapons that they planned to use in a war, then why didn't they use any of those weapons when we went to war with them?
A: Well, obviously they didn't want anyone to know they had those weapons, so they chose to die by the thousands rather than defend themselves.
Q: That doesn't make sense. Why would they choose to die if they had all those big weapons with which they could have fought back?
A: It's a different culture. It's not supposed to make sense.
Q: I don't know about you, but I don't think they had any of those weapons our government said they did.
A: Well, you know, it doesn't matter whether or not they had those weapons. We had another good reason to invade them anyway.
Q: And what was that?
A: Even if Iraq didn't have weapons of mass destruction, Saddam Hussein was a cruel dictator, which is another good reason to invade another country.
Q: Why? What does a cruel dictator do that makes it OK to invade his country?
A: Well, for one thing, he tortured his own people.
Q: Kind of like what they do in China?
A: Don't go comparing China to Iraq. China is a good economic competitor, where millions of people work for slave wages in sweatshops to make U.S. corporations richer.
Q: So if a country lets its people be exploited for American corporate gain, it's a good country, even if that country tortures people?
A: Right.
Q: Why were people in Iraq being tortured?
A: For political crimes, mostly, like criticizing the government. People who criticized the government in Iraq were sent to prison and tortured.
Q: Isn't that exactly what happens in China?
A: I told you, China is different.
Q: What's the difference between China and Iraq?
A: Well, for one thing, Iraq was ruled by the Ba'ath party, while China is Communist.
Q: Didn't you once tell me Communists were bad?
A: No, just Cuban Communists are bad.
Q: How are the Cuban Communists bad?
A: Well, for one thing, people who criticize the government in Cuba are sent to prison and tortured.
Q: Like in Iraq?
A: Exactly.
Q: And like in China, too?
A: I told you, China's a good economic competitor. Cuba, on the other hand, is not.
Q: How come Cuba isn't a good economic competitor?
A: Well, you see, back in the early 1960s, our government passed some laws that made it illegal for Americans to trade or do any business with Cuba until they stopped being Communists and started being capitalists like us.
Q: But if we got rid of those laws, opened up trade with Cuba, and started doing business with them, wouldn't that help the Cubans become capitalists?
A: Don't be a smart-***.
Q: I didn't think I was being one.
A: Well, anyway, they also don't have freedom of religion in Cuba.
Q: Kind of like China and the Falun Gong movement?
A: I told you, stop saying bad things about China. Anyway, Saddam Hussein came to power through a military coup, so he's not really a legitimate leader anyway.

I think we all saw this coming. CBS has axed Don Imus' radio show. It's over for him in the big leagues, at least for now.

What will Don Imus do next? Will he pop up on radio somewhere else? Maybe he will write a book, or go on a public speaking tour...

We are to be constantly evolving to be more like Christ every day. The changing of our hearts, renewing of our minds. Every day we are to become more like Jesus, so I guess evolution is true. At least this form of evolution.

Masonic Cemetery – Every April 5 and November 1, it is said that a beautiful woman in a black satin dress appears and lays flowers on the grave of John Edward Cameron. There are many different rumors for the connection between this ghost and Cameron, who died on November 1, 1887. At one time, twelve people gathered at Cameron's grave on November 1 to see the ghost. They were not disappointed -- at sunset, the woman appeared as always, but when two of the men tried to grab her, she flew off and vanished on a hill not far from the cemetery. The hilltop cemetery is north of the city.

AND HAS ANYONE GONE UP TO SEE THIS?
