The Lakeview gusher of San Joaquin Valley of California was America’s most spectacular oil gusher. On March 15 of 1910, it erupted spewing out about 9.4 million barrels of raw, crude oil over the California countryside for about 18 months. Crews rushed to contain the river of crude oil with a system of unprepared sand bag dams and dikes. Amazingly, the gusher never caught fire during its gassy, 18-month stint. Half the oil was captured a processed but the rest flowed into local rivers, agricultural lands, the air and the water table.

What was the significance of this event??

I'm sure this was the case in other eras too, but I've often seen married 1950's couples shown this way. For example, in the movies "Pleasantville" and "A Christmas Story". Why didn't a husband and wife sleep in the same bed?

I am losing the battle with my cockroaches. They have developed immunity to everything I can throw at them. I know they can't develop immunity to boric acid, but I have heard boric acid & cats do not go together. I have no desire to risk my three cats health... but what if I only put the boric acid inside the cabinets I know the cats never get into? Or even into the drawers in my kitchen? What are the boric acid/cat risks?

We all know that collision and comprehensive coverages demand high premiums these days. I also know that if your vehicle is financed and you don't provide a lender with adequate insurance or your insurance is expired or whatever, such lenders can insure the collateral themselves, EVEN AFTER a loss has occured - theft, accident, fire, etc.
My question is: Why couldn't I do the same? That is, wait for an accident to happen or your vehicle to be stolen, AND THEN purchase insurance, wait a period of time, and file a claim.
I realize that you'd have a hard time proving an accident occured while your policy was active; police probably need to make an on site report, appraisers can detect the age of the damage and other shortcomings. But what about THEFT? If your vehicle is stolen and you do not file a police report, then buy coverage, wait some time, report the theft as it just happened and then file a claim? What are your chances?
I'd appreciate pragmatic responses, w/o ethical aroma.

People are all the time talking about going to heaven. How do we get there, what are we going to do there, etc. My question is from God's point of view. Do you think God/Allah/whoever you worship actually WANTS you to be in heaven with Him? This is a sincere question. Do think He is up there saying, "Wow! I can't wait until John gets here so we can spend intimate time together" or perhaps, "I enjoyed creating Ibrahim and I want be together in eternity with Him."

My car was put into the shop two weeks ago.. first day they told me it needed new spark wires and would order parts and it would be ready the next day.. the next day they tell me I might need a new engine and that they needed to contact the dealership about something.. I called yesterday and he said they were waiting on the dealership for something and then they would let me know.. it's two weeks now. I still haven't got a clear answer on what is wrong with the car.

Is there anyway I can say nevermind and get it towed somewhere else? Or what do I do?

I have a tremendous passion for helping the unfortunate, or those unable to help themselves, (elderly, children...)I was interested in being a police officer but i decided that wasn't for me. I was working towards my AA in criminal justice but now I think i'll get it in psychology. I would like to work hands on with kids but i have no formal experience in day cares or anything like that. I've grown up with children and I love them to death. Especially infants. I think theyre so adorable. My gf and her stepmom and friends were discussing what I could do but came up with few conclusions. IDEAS? =)

It must pay reasonably well. My girlfriend is going to be a teacher and a stay at home mother for several years. I would like to take as little school as possible. Preferably a bachelor's degree.

"A threat to families and traditional marriage values"?--as some Christian Family Coalition groups have charged in the past.

The city of Bellevue up here in Washington state has finally granted same-sex couples the same rights in employment and health benefits--as granted by married couples.

http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/local/318529_bellevue05.html

I think it's a good start in the right direction. Not towards gay marriage, but to the effect that gays and lesbians should be given the same rights as married couples have.

But does this action still pose a distinct threat to family and values, I ask? Or can we get past the racist and xenophobic attitudes we've been harboring towards gays and lesbians as of late?
