with all this hoopla over whether he's good or not, I would just like to remind everyone that most wizards and witches are able to cast spells without saying them out loud. is it not plausible that he cast a spell to make dumbledore appear dead so that malfoy wouldn't have to do it or be seen not doing it?

this is not a question for anyone who only watches the movies. the movie version of HP have misrepresented spells on several occasions in order to play up to the movie going crowd.

It seems that every 'portable' model we look at needs to have access to a hole in the wall - which is extremely impractical for our living area. I didnt think it'd be so hard to find something like a heater but for cold air....

attack us? It is too bad that the Republican controlled Congress tied CLintons hands about Bin Laden in the mid 90's when Sudan offered him to us. Its too bad they said Bin Laden wasn't our problem and hadn't done anything. Why didnt the Republicans care about keeping Americans safe? Why did they have to focus on a ******* instead of keeping us safe?

Why is it doctors don't seem to care if someone is in agony, like childbirth. Why don't they give adequate pain relief if the mother wants it & there is no reason to withhold it.

From personal experience, they don't give a crap. And seem to get pleasure from making it worse. I don't have a low pain tolerance level & can tolerate severe pain without complaint. But when I do complain, it's agony. I don't squirm around & scream, i'm not that kind of person, however severe it was. They drove me to want to comit suicide. If only I had been left alone, no birthing partner, my daughter & I wouldn't be here now. Because I know there would have been no one to stop me & I would have done something stupid, seriously. It wouldn't have been my fault, pain can make people not in control of their actions. Why can't doctors see this? Some women can't push out a baby it doesn't matter what size the woman is, or the baby is, sometimes the woman knows it's not possible. Bloody doctors should listen!

Cave paintings have been made since the Upper Paleolithic, 40,000 years ago. The oldest cave is that of Chauvet, and is 32,000 years old. How come in the Bible, man is not depicted as using stone axes and stone tools, with flint arrow heads etc?

Also, how can one explain the fact that since after the "flood", the population had to start over, which, one would presume, was some time after adam and eve, the variations in race in humans? Why are there people of all different colours and racial bone formations, especially of the skull?

Speaking of "the flood", Was Noah commanded to take one pair of each clean animal into the Ark (Gen 6:19–20) or seven pairs (Gen 7:2–3)? Did the flood last forty days (Gen. 7:17) or a hundred and fifty days (Gen 7:24)?

Also, would all the animals, including the extinct ones, have fit in the ark? And if all the land on earth was covered, where did that enormous volume of water go? seriously! It had to go somewhere! Where is it!?

My younger sister is a PRIME example of that. She talks a lot of trash & thinks she doesn't have to suffer any consequences. She was running off @ the mouth to me this evening @ IHOP, & got mad when I made her pay for her own food.

When Nancy Pelosi went to Syria she probably violated the Logan Act by interfering in negotiations with another country. Diplomatic negotiations are part of the Executive Branch function and not that of the Legislative. In addition to playing Diplomat, a message she gave to Syria from Israel was not conveyed properly and left Israel denying what Pelosi said.
What they fail to understand is that representatives of the Bush Administration (or any President’s Administration) are allowed to conduct these kinds of meetings. once again, Diplomacy is an Executive Branch function and therefore the President or his representatives are authorized to participate in them.
Pelosi is a member of the Legislative Branch and does not belong playing Diplomat. Who is she trying to be, Condi Rice?

At a birthday gathering for my MIL, my nieces gave me a Fathers Day present. (this was the Thursday before Fathers Day).
Our adult son was present to witness this. I was pleasantly suprised by the gift, & of course I didn't expect anything for Fathers Day from my son at that moment since it was still a couple of days away.

BUT!

It's now a couple of weeks past Fathers Day, & I got NOTHING from him, or his wife. No card, present, pat-on-the-back, or phone call. NOTHING!!!

My wife, & I do lot's of good things for him & our daughter-in-law, but always end up feeling under-appreciated for it.
We don't expect much (like any parent) but is a simple acknowledgement at Fathers Day, or a B'Day too much to ask?

We taught him better than this, but now I have to wonder.

I've heard it said that people treat you the way you teach them to. But I am at a loss as to what to say, if anything.
What would you do?
