I "heard" that if you pay your first mortgage payment early (before interest capitalizes) you can knock down the amount of total interest paid (over the life of the loan) significantly.

Is this true?

Ok, so I just registered my bulldog puppy with the AKC and they sent me a three generation pedigree. Follow me on this, I'm a little confused myself. My dog's mother's dad (that would be my dog's granddad) is the same dog that my dog's father's granddad is (my dog's great granddad, on the other side of the family). Does that make him inbred. I mean surely the AKC wouldn't register him if he was, right?

Next year, I'm going to be a sophmore. It's been kind of rough the past few years, being teased because of my weight. This summer, I'm trying to shed a few pounds, but I'm not doing it for other people, I'm doing it for myself. The main reason boys don't notice me is because of my weight. I know there somebody out there with my name on it, but why is it taking to long? Or maybe I'm just too young to be worrying about getting a boyfriend.

(Along with flying to Ontario to see Tool in June) I'm also flying out to Marysville, CA to see Placebo in concert on July 7th. But Placebo hardly ever plays in the U.S. On the other hand, I fly out of the country two or three times a month to a concert. Does anyone else do this?

I have a phobia of men and also I do find certain women attractive. When I get hugged by another woman I really like it.
Or if they touch me I feel.......... I can't describe it, it's just a good feeling. When I say touched I don't mean sexually by the way.
nice answers only please, I'm really confussed about all this and it does frighten me.
Thanks

I have a spring attached to the throttle linkage, that must attach to the choke linkage on the other end. I can find no hole where it might attach. This is for a Murray push mower Model # 22541X92D w/ a Briggs engine. The loose end of the spring is shaped like a paper clip, approx 3/4" long, I assume it is shaped like this to let the governor to work freely. There is a loop in the governor connecting rod, could it attach there somehow? The choke does not operate at present when the throttle is moved.

I need to break up with my boyfriend. It's just not working out. I've played it out in my head and I'm afraid he is going to ask why. Other than it's just not working out, I don't want to hurt his feelings and tell him really why. Some real reasons are: He is way toooo quiet and I'm bored. His facial expressions bother me, when he smokes and drinks, he stinks, and he has no ambition. Probably nobody can help me, but it feels better to get it out.

i have been living with a circle of influential people since childhood. most of it indirectly. my granddad was one of Malaysia's successful senior judges, and my dad, he was a success himself. these put pressure on me on what am i to become in adulthood. taking my SPM this year, I'm an honor student. most people expect me to pursue engineering as it offers high paying start salary, but what I'm really interested with is construction management. i'm in a dilemma

i have been reading alot of questions, and answers. and I've noticed one thing that has me confused. maybe someone can help me with this.

if a woman gets preganant, and chooses to end the pregnancy users call her a "baby killer" and other things. i understand you have a right to your opinion, but thats not what confuses me.

if a woman who is pregnant, decides that abortion is wrong, wants to continue the pregnancy but has a limited source of income, and asks a question about public assistance some of the same users say "get off public assitance, get a job, stop using tax payers money".

now thats the confusing part. wouldnt a person who is against abortion be for public assistance when it comes to saving a baby? i really want to know because im confused.
