Every time Rosie is challenged or criticized she almost ALWAYS throws out "your picking on me because I am gay". She did it on the "View" with Elizabeth, and has done it almost EVERY time she is challenged for her nut views.

I'm so tired of seeing the same questions over and over again in this category. For example, i'm 15, had sex last night, took a preg test this morning and it's negative. Why can't people google it or look under questions that have been asked already. Why are children so young having sex already? When people take preg tests don't they read the directions? I'm so annoyed!!

The line l1 passes through the point A with position vector i - 2j - 2k and is parallel to the vector 3i - 4j - 2k. The variable line l2 passes through the point (1 + 5 cos t)i - (1 + 5sin t)j - 14k, where 0 ≤ t ≤ 2π, and is parallel to the vector 15i + 8j - 3k. The points P and Q are on l1 and l2 respectively, and PQ is perpendicular to both l1 and l2.

Find the length of PQ in terms of t.

Oh, gosh. How on earth do I start? The cos and sin t look horribly menacing. Help'd be very much appreciated, and workings, too. My lecturer hasn't really gotten into such complicated questions, so this one came as quite a shock to me, and I've absolutely no idea how to go about answering this.

Woman dies after power company cuts her off

Photo : NZPA
Police have spoken to the family of a woman who died soon after a power company shut off power to her home oxygen machine.

Mangere woman Folole Muliaga, 44, was an early childhood teacher and mother of four children aged from five to 18.

A relative who married into Mrs Muliaga's family, Brenden Sheehan, told NZPA she had been off work since February with an illness.

Mrs Muliaga's husband Lopa, a chef's assistant, had been forced to reduce his work hours in order to care for her.

The family had been in New Zealand for six years, and were confident English speakers, Mr Sheehan said.

When a Mercury Energy representative arrived to cut the power supply, the family had explained the circumstances, and had brought the person inside the house to show the representative the oxygen machine, he said.

"They didn't (have a medical certificate) at that moment in time. They clearly could have got one had they been given an opportunity to do so."

Mr Sheehan said police had talked this morning to the family, who expected to be interviewed again later today.

Auckland law lecturer Bill Hodge said today if what the family said was true the contractor could face a manslaughter charge.

Today Inspector Bruce Bird, area commander for Counties Manukau west, said today police would investigate the death.

"We will have a look at the whole circumstances...and make a decision on what the facts tell us and review that.

It was too early early to speculate on what, if any charges, may be laid.

Mercury Energy general manager James Moulder said the company was devastated by the woman's death but would not say how much money was owed on the power bill.

"I don't talk about customer arrangements with anyone but customers."

He said the company had expressed its deep condolences to the family.

"We are incredibly remorseful.

"We are now working through just to understand exactly what did occur."

He said he had heard the suggestion the power was cut off in spite of the protestations of the family.

"We haven't verified that internally ourselves yet.

"I can't really comment on something I am not 100 percent sure on."

He said the company was still talking to contractors and getting details.

Mr Moulder said if there was an "issue", the contractor or disconnect agent should call Mercury before the power was cut off.

"We do have procedures in place to deal with medical emergencies or issues of hardship."

He said Mercury's procedures were clear.

"If the event there is a medical reason the person needs power, then the disconnect processes are quite different," Mr Moulder said.

Mr Moulder said he had offered Mr Sheehan and the family his personal condolences.

"They were received as you would expect but obviously it is an extremely trying time.

"This is an absolute tragedy. We are as devastated as anyone about what has occurred."

Although Mr Moulder would not talk about how much money was owed, it may have been only a month or two of power.

He said generally after a bill was sent, it should be paid within 21 days.

Ten to 14 days after that 21-day period a reminder notice was sent and seven to 10 days after that the next month's bill would include a "message saying that the previous month was overdue, please pay otherwise disconnection will occur.

"Seven days after that we send a final disconnect (notice) saying if you don't pay within 48 hours you power is going to be disconnected."

Mr Moulder said that meant disconnection was likely more than a month or six weeks after the initial 21-day period given to pay the bill.

"We always arrange to disconnect while people are on the premises as well. We disconnect in the morning so we can reconnect soon afterwards in the afternoon if payment has been made," he said.

Power was restored to the house about 8am today.

A spokeswoman for State Owned Enterprises Minister Trevor Mallard said he was concerned by the death.

"The minister is taking this incident extremely seriously and will be demanding accountability," she said.

"He has asked for an urgent report from the SOE."

Green Party MP Sue Bradford called for a public inquiry into the death describing the decision to cut the power as ``mercenary''.

``Is there no social responsibility requirement? No code of conduct? Listening to the company spokesperson this morning it would seem the company sees it as entirely the responsibility of the consumer to make contact, provide documentation and argue their right to be allowed to live,'' she said.

``Surely there is some flexibility to use compassion and common sense in this type of very rare situation.

The line l has equation r = 4i - 8k + λ(2i + j) and the plane ∏1 has equation r = -8i + 12j + 4k + µ(2i + j) + v(2i - k), where λ, µ, v are all real numbers. The points U and V, which vary independently are on l and on ∏1, respectively. The point W which is on the line segment UV, is such that UW = 3WV.

Find an equation of the locus of W.

The points L and M have position vectors -4i + 13j + 3k and 15j + 3k, respectively.

i) Determine if the points L and M are in the plane ∏1.
ii) Find the plane ∏2, which contains the points L and M and also the line l.
iii) Find an equation of the intersection of ∏2 with the locus of W.

Um. Help, please. Seriously, I took one look at this question, saw the ∏ and the λ and promptly blanked out. They ARE just symbols, but I've been rendered pretty much clueless. Where should I start, how should I go about working out the answers? Could someone provide working, too? Thank you so very much in advance!

One of my friends got a baby turtle from a girl that had found it (I think in her yard). We want to set him free, but we don't know where to put him (near water, etc) His shell is about the size of a half-dollar coin, with a roundish ridge down the middle. He has a short pointed tail, and kinda spiky "fingers". It's hard to tell because we don't want to handle him too much, and he's really small. His belly is yellowish. He has a bit of a pointed beak mouth, but it doesn't seem all big like a snapping turtle. His shell is not as tall as a "box turtle", but he's not super-flat either. If anybody can help me I would really appreciate it.
I would just turn him loose, but he's so tiny that I'm afraid if he's not in the right habitat he won't make it.
Any links would help too!
Thanks!

I currently work at a corporation run restaurant. I started in the kitchen and within 8 months have learned things that people there years have never learned. I'm the hardest worker and I'll be graduating college in under a year. The assistant general manager and the regional supervisor ABOVE the general manager of the restaurant are both on board with me becoming an assistant manager. However, the general manager of this restaurant is taking his time and is trying to make things seem fair because I've advanced so quickly; even though I deserve it. I've contemplated designing a written paper to my general manager voicing all of the opinions and facts that are surrounding every reason why I should be getting this promotion. Does anyone have any ideas for me? The restaurant is Vinny T's of Boston, if that helps anyone.
