to start with, every living thing on the planet must kill some other living thing so that it may continue to stay alive, not to mention mans inhumanity to man for sport or for gain, and natural events such as earthquakes, hurricanes, volcanic eruptions etc. why would a benevolent, loving, harmonious god create such an incredibly violent and bloodthirsty world as this? this would seem to be a contradiction no?

Don't say LimeWire because it gave me a virus on my old computer -- which I had to get rid of.



I have a new laptop, but I need a good place to download music -- for free -- that has better virus protection than LimeWire. I heard that some things might have to do with your connection -- in which I have DSL. Soo, can anyone help me?

I'm trying to get a new NFL team to follow. I'm 13 and I was raised in a family where baseball is most important. My dad's family likes the Bears and Packers and my mom's family is Colts and Bengals. Normally when people ask what my team is I say Green Bay because Favre is cool but he's retiring soon and that's the only reason I like them. I live in Virginia where the Redskins have been the most followed team. The Ravens also have a small following along with the Steelers. Carolina Panthers are the second most popular team. Should I get a new team, stay with the Packers, or what?

Which of these sentences is grammatically correct (I hope at least one of them is)?

1. "There is a dozen other topics in which I am interested."
2. "There are a dozen other topics in which I am interested."

"a dozen" is singular (there's only one dozen), so it makes sense that it should be preceded by "is". But that sounds odd, because the "number of topics" is over a dozen, and so to my ear #2 sounds correct.

Anyone have a definitive answer?

BACKGROUND
A 41-year-old man presents with fever, malaise, and a 20-lb weight loss over the past 3 months. The patient also has intermittent headaches, coughing with occasional hemoptysis, and multiple chronic skin lesions. The lesions initially appeared as hyperpigmented scaly plaques on his lower back (see Image 1). They have enlarged over the last year, spreading to his arms, nose (see Images 2-3), and penis (see Image 4). The lesions are not itchy or painful. Over the last few weeks, the lesions on the patient’s nose and penis have begun to ulcerate and produce a bloody, purulent discharge.

The patient was diagnosed with HIV infection 13 years ago. He denies having any chest discomfort, shortness of breath, nausea, or diarrhea. He has not traveled recently and has not had any contact with people who were sick. He has not spent any time in environments where the risk of tuberculosis is high (eg, prison, shelters). On physical examination, the patient is afebrile with a blood pressure of 116/58 mm Hg and a heart rate of 92 bpm. His respiratory rate is 14 breaths/min, and his oxygen saturation while breathing room air is 96%.

On his nose is a crusted, indurated plaque with irregular borders and central ulceration that produces thick, blood-tinged, suppurative discharge (see Image 3). A nontender oval-shaped crusted plaque with superficial ulceration is located on his penis at the base of the glans (see Image 4). Numerous skin-colored umbilicated papules, of about 3-6 mm and with central hemorrhagic crusts, are scattered irregularly on his arms and face (see Image 2). A diffuse, hyperpigmented lichenification of the skin is noted on his back, with many small areas of superficial ulceration (see Image 1).

No retinal lesions are noted on funduscopic examination. No frank nuchal rigidity is present; however, the patient expresses moderate discomfort with neck flexion. The lungs are clear to auscultation with no rales, rhonchi, or wheezing; the cardiac examination is normal. The remainder of the physical examination yields unremarkable results.

The patient is transferred to the adjoining emergency department (ED) and, because infectious meningitis is suspected, is placed in respiratory isolation. A lumbar puncture reveals an opening pressure of 22 cm H2O. A cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) sample is sent for laboratory evaluation and shows a WBC count of 450/mm33 (0.450 X 109/L) with a mononuclear predominance, a mildly elevated protein level, and a slightly decreased glucose concentration. India ink staining reveals the presence of fungi.

What is the etiology of the patient’s symptoms? Are all of the lesions from the same disease process?

I think they both have equal drama and action, but if i'd had to choose i would say that Charmed had more drama and action,the three sisters, all used their strength and to win fights. Smallville is great also because its based on Superman and i have noticed they are bringing in new superheros, which i think is really cool.

I am a Christian. I believe in God. I don't try to convert people over and I respect people who have different faiths than mine and my husband has doubts about God. I wish he was did not, but he does and that's his business and I can't make him believe, so I don't try. So why is it that atheists will always jump down a Christian's throat trying to disprove our beliefs without just quietly going on their merry way and not believing? If you truly didn't believe in a higher power, why would you focus so much time and energy into trying to prove his non-existence to myself and other Christians? Or is it that you're trying to disprove it to yourself so you'll feel better?
