There have been several female presidents/world leaders. Unfortunately, they didn't do very well! I can think of three examples. In Britain, there was PM Thatcher, the "iron lady" who was heavily conservative and pro-military. The Falklands War and her policy against the communists were her trademark. The low classes hated her. Then there was Canada's PM Kim Campbell, who didn't last more than a few months before screwing up. She was so inept in public relations that during her elections, she said you shouldn't vote for her opponent because of his ugly lip. She was referring to famously wry-lipped Jean Chretien, who beat her and was elected as PM for the next 15 years! There was also Imelda Marcos, of the Philipines, who spent millions on her shoe fetish while her country was in economic crisis and nearly got herself lynched by the lower classes revolution.

Nevertheless, I think Hilary Clinton can become the first female president due to her abilities. What do you think?

With all the negativity you see on television, especially after the Virginia Tech Incident. It is so difficult for me to even imagine what the parents are going to have to go through. How are you keeping your morale up?

I went to my bf's cousin's funeral today. He died in a car accedent Frinday the 13th, he was only 11. I've went to the water park with this boy & his family, we had the fourth of july with him, & it was just so unreal seeing him so pale. Why do they do that? They had everyone that attended pass the open casket, even the children. Does this happen everytime the body is presentable, or is it (in this case the parent's) choice?

I mean, here's god, with all eternity before him, and he's collected all the faithful souls, who are now sitting about him, staring at his face and doing nothing more than adore him.

And here are all these lost souls, people whom he supposedly loves just as much, but who exercised their free will in a way that displeased the lord, and thus he's prepared to exterminate them by pitching them into the lake of fire.

Instead of Hell and a lake of fire, he couldn't send them to a place where they could be rehabilitated? I mean, these lost souls aren't going anywhere unless god pitches them into the lake like so much firewood.

Is barbecuing these souls the most loving and compassionate thing god can do with a lost soul?

Is god so limited in imagination and compassion that even a human can do better?

1. Do you think it's a waste of time and you'd rather be at home sleeping? Or is it an event that shouldn't be missed?

2. Now imagine you don't have any friends in town. Would your answer be any different?

I am a 30 year old female, I am 5'6", I weigh 150. I count my calories and eat between 1200-1400 calories a day. I work out four days a week running two miles and walking one each day. I've been doing this for about 3 months and have only lost five pounds. I do some weight training too but not as consistently. I still have a lot of excess fat on my body. I used to weigh 140 and felt best at that weight. Why won't my body shed the weight help !!! I am getting married at the end of June to my days are counting down. Any suggestion on getting rid of stubborn fat are appreciated.
