OK , the Government takes a huge tax hike on a gallon of petrol but these cartels are truely taking the p*ss. Whilst the cost per barrel of oil is going down , the prices at the pumps have sky-rocketed , it makes no sense at all to the logical & sensible person , but hey! , who are we?. They always come away with some crap about the votility of the middle east. I know the truth , this island (Britian) is known as "Treasure Island" to these global companies because we are not known to complain and just 'accept' things. This malaise comes from past generations who did as they were told without complaint ..

Before it could be proved false, Christians were absolutely positive that the sun, planets, etc. revolved around the earth. (Talk about cosmic egotism.) They knew no better and despite some more than a little resistance, have now accepted the fact that the earth is not the center of the universe.

Still, in spite of evidence to the contrary, creationists insist that god created man rather believing the evidence of the natural explanation offered by evolution/natural selection. Will they be looked by our descendents at with the same sort of disdain we look upon those who believed in geocentric model? If so, don't you sort of feel sorry for them?

My Turtle is about the size of my hand. Wich is about the size of a school calculater that the students work with. And i've tried giving it fruit, lettuce, and hot dogs, but the turtle will not eat it.
I have an aquarium that it lives in with half of it land and the other half water. I set the food in the water and on the land, but the turtle seems to not see it.

ANY IDEAS ON WHAT TO FEED THIS TURTLE! BESIDES THINGS THAT YOU BUY AT A PET STORE. LIKE THINGS INSIDE YOUR HOUSE??

OR ANY IDEAS ON HOW TO TAKE CARE OF A SNAPPING TURTLE??

[I know that if it is HD (which comes only with digital signal), it is going to look awesome on the HDTV. My question relates to non-HD signal.]

If I get digital cable, I automatically get HD when available - right? If yes, why does comcast sell a $5/month HD package? What additional benefit does that provide?

I see I have confused all my American cousins with my previous question. Again

The word Doctor means teacher in Latin - not one who practices medicine. In the UK medical graduates obtain the degree MB ChB (batchelor of medicine, surgery) and yet they use the title Dr. They do not have a doctorate. Some do - they look down microscopes for three more years, write a thesis and get an MD or PhD - fine. Yet they still use the title "Dr" when only possesing the MB ChB, and "Dr" does not mean one who practices medicine, it means teacher.

I am am an Engineer, I dont call myself "Dr" - to do so I would need to study for an EngD (Dr of engineering) or Ph.D (bye the way I have taught engineering).

So here it comes people in the UK: Why do physicians use the title Dr ??

I know I've asked this question before, but it's my favorite, and I like getting new views on it.

The more I think about it, the more I realize that my personal spirituality is more in line with songs such as "Strawberry Fields Forever" and "Breathe" than any dogma of an organized religion.

And when you get right down to it, is there any difference between reading the words written by man in the Bible and applying them to your life, or listening to the words sung by man on Dark Side of the Moon or the White Album and doing the same?

I'm not suggesting that I have alters to these musical artists or that I pray to them for guidance, more like I listen to what they have to say and think "Yeah... I can dig that."

What do you think of this? Wrong? Right? Crazy?

In closing, I'll leave you with my favorite scene from the movie Michael.

"Remember what John and Paul said."
"The Apostles?"
"No, the Beatles. All you need is love."

My fiance and I are planning this enormous wedding and my parents are paying for it all. It going to be beautiful, exactly what I dreamed about since I was a little girl. Everything is perfect, and I want my wedding party to match. My maid of honor and bridesmaids are all very pretty, and are the best man and groomsmen. We are using my cousin's son as our ring beare and he is adorable. The problem is the flower girl, it's a tradition in my fiance's family to use kids from actually inside the family, something about passing on fertility or something. I don't know. The only little girl of the appropriate age is my fiance's brother's daughter (she's seven) and she is just ugly. Not just plain, but just an ugly little girl. I don't think she can even fit in the cute dress I want her to wear. She weighs close to a hundred pounds already!!! My question is, do I really have to keep her in my wedding party? I think she is going to ruin the day! Or should I just keep her?

My boyfriend and I are taking a 'break'. I'm heartbroken, but I understand why he wants this break, and genuinely hope that by taking a break we will be able to start on a new slate, and improve our relationship.

We have been together for a bit over a year, and I truly think he is the one. I'm working hard to give him his space, but I miss him, and I want to talk it out instead of not talking at all. To make matters worse, his dog died the same day after he said he wanted a break, and now he has to handle the stress of the break and of his loss.

Has anyone had a break that ended up benefitting the relationship? Please no negative or cruel answers, I really don't need that right now.

A common argument for abortion is "A fetus is not a baby"....so when you know someone who is prego, and has a miscarriage in the first two or three months do you say "they lost the baby" or "they no longer have the group of cells in there that might be a baby" or is only a baby when you don't want to kill it?

I was told it was "by law" that 30 minutes needed to be taken out of my pay each day if I work more than 6 hours. Obviously, by law you need to take a 30 minute break for every 6 hours worked and sometimes I don't get that break but it is still being taken out of my time card every day. I work 3pm-11pm by myself....tell me, how am i supposed to be getting a break? Is it true that the managers should not even be touching my time card?? Changing hours, etc. Shouldn't we be "clocking out' for break and then clocking back in after we're done? From what I understand no one is to touch your time card or make any changes.
