There was a question earlier about what breakthroughs have come from Stem Cell Research.
It got the usual Religious Right" bashing.
One guy CK4829 posted a link. "Woman walks after 20 years paralyzed, due to Stem Cell Treatment".
So I went to the link http://www.redorbit.com/news/display/?id.

Surprised to find it was thru the use of UMBILICAL CORD Stem Cells!!!!! NO FETUS USED.
They go on to say most if not all treatments have come from adult stem cells, or Umbilical Cord.


So why do we need to use Fetus, when the other options work better?????

It's sad ... I try my best to write in proper english. How do we want to represent ourselves, dumb and lazy or just stupid and ignorant? You may not know it but your insulting you and your country ... try and find a job with the way some people spell on Yahoo Answers ... flipping burgers fits? Any feedback would be appreciated.

Just ordered and extra 512mb of RAM for my computer. I'm sure I have the right chip after consulting an in-store technician and my computer's website. When I add the RAM and boot the computer everything is normal and the start screen for XP is loaded. I receive a stop error (blue screen) when I attempt to log onto my user. I remove the RAM and everything is fine. Is the hardware malfunctioning or am I supposed to do something to install it?

This vaccine is controversial because it is designed to be given to girls before they become sexually active, ideally around 12-13 yrs age.
Some critics have argued that vaccinating against HPV might promote sexual promiscuity.

I have a very good friend whose mum recently sadly passed away age 42 from cervical cancer (it was a remission- she lived another 2 years before passing)- her daughter 21 is obviously at high risk too.
I think all women should have the injection- regardless of notions of promiscuity or such moral dilemmas or any medical risks for that matter. For me better- alive and sinning than dead and virgin pure.

If it were available now I'd push my friends' sister to the Doctor right now- tie her up if I had to.

What about you- what are your thoughts?

love

Her eyes stared back at me, a cornflower blue,
Porcelain skin, slick from the sweat, like morning dew.
Legs are as perfect as any long distance runner,
When you put it all together, a perfect stunner.

When we make love, it's kind of like poetry,
The rhythyn, the meter, a perfect soliloquy.
She wears me out, with her youth and pace,
There is no place I'd rather be, lost in her lace.

After a rest and some Kristal champaign,
like two virgin teens, our lust gone insane.
I'd rather be here, in her arms, us together,
Wild horses couldn't drag me away with a tether.

A woman is like something wild and free,
not to be kept in a chamber, under lock and a key.
A woman is best when she knows she has love,
By a man who will trust her, to return like a dove.

But I could be happy, never leaving this place,
Joyfully playing and flailing and kissing her face.
Nothing could bring me, any more joy than this,
As she rises in the morning, on my lips a sweet kiss.

My mom only has a few of her top row and bottom row front teeth, my Auntie always has toothaces, my other aunt has fake teeth, I have perfect teeth, I do brush them when I get to. And sometimes, I floss. But I get some occasional toothaches. When I was 8-10, I used to always go to the dentist and I've lost all my baby teeth. When I was young I ate alot of candy, but I don't no more. I don't have any more baby teeth. I'm worried of loosing a tooth and looking weird or loosing all my teeth, help please?

Do you give up? Is giving up right or wrong?

What if you are a smoker, a drinker, a drug user, a criminal, etc.? Is giving up still wrong?

1. A small company involved in a delivery business is in charge of two routes. A driver on route A travels 70 miles and a driver on route B travels 75 miles on a given day. The Driver on route A travels 5 mph slower than the driver on route B. Also the route A takes ½ an hour longer than B. How fast is each driver driving?

2. Two ferryboats leave opposite sides of a
lake at the same time. They pass each other when they are 800 meters from the nearest shore. When it reaches the oppostie side, each boat spends 30 minutes at the dock and then starts back. This time the boats pass each other when they are 400 meters from the nearest shore. Assuming that each of the boats travel at the same speed in both directions, how wide is the lake between the two ferry docks?

3. A train, an hour after starting, meets an accident which detains it one hour, after which it proceeds at 3/5 of its former rate and arrives 3 hours late. But, had an accident which happened 80 KM farther, it would have been 1.5 hours late only. Find the original rate of the train and the length of the journey.

I knew a boy at work who suddenly began to be very kind to me, even if we could rarely meet along the corridors of the office. Whenever he saw me at the phone, he always asked me if I was talking with my boy-friend; when I was absent for some days, when I came back he wanted to know where I had gone and with whom. When I once asked hime why he was so interested in my boy-fr, he remained speechless and it was very embarassing. He always looked at me with sweet eyes and a big smile, but I didn't trust him because he was aware of being handsome and he was very nice with all girls, especially the most attractive. But what I couldn't stand more was the fact that, besides paying me many compliments, he never simply asked me to have a coffee with him to try to have a "normal" conversation. So I decided to ignore him, and he in turn began to avoid me, even if when it casually happened he looked at me with a strange expression of sadness and reproach. So I returned to be nicer, but when
