Recently, our 2003 YukonXL has been having electric seat problems. The up button goes down, and down goes up. Then the next week, the forward button sent the seat back and the back button sent the seat forward. This is just weird. Does anyone have the answer?

So how many of you like a girl to ask you out? I've always been more traditional and waited for guys to ask me but lately my dating has been below par and I'm thinking its because guys are expecting me to do the asking. So how do you feel about it? Is it too forward? Do you get a certain "expectation" from girls who ask you out?

First of all let me start off telling you that my computer is as good as garbage now that I have upgraded to Windows Vista. I'm real siked to play Halo 2 Vista on my PC, Crysis, and the highly anticipated Gears Of War PC.
First of all here are my computers specs:

Windows Vista Home Premium
2.7 GHz Intel Celeron Processor
512MB DDR SDRAM memory
Intel Extreme Graphics

And here are the requirements for what I need:

Windows Vista
2 GHz or faster processor
1 GB of system RAM
NVIDIA 6100, ATI X700, or above

Could someone point out some specific parts I could pick up at like Best Buy?

I also need a new motherboard, because the one I have isn't compatable with the new PCI Express Cards.
Can you give me links to websites (perferebly BestBuy) for the following parts that will run smoothly with Vista and cost less than $800:

Motherboard
2GB RAM
Direct X 10 Video Card

Whoever gives me the best answer will get 50 Points.(Id make 4 more ?s and pick you) Thanks a lot!

My son is employed in the construction field, and working with mechanical oils for lubricating cement blocks. I washed his clothes with Tide Liquid, but I can still smell the oil. Any other laundry detergent or other product I could use to get rid of this smell? (PS, And I know not to dry these clothes in the dryer after laundering as they would still be flammable) Thank you

To Jews and Christians (and others too), if you say Allah is the God of Islam and your God is not the same as mine, doesn't that mean that you are actually believing that there is another God? Doesn't all three monotheistic religions teach that there is only one God?

I want to go to Boston college but I am not sure if its possible for me. I have a 2.1 GPA and chances are its going to fall even more because the school refuses to help me out with my conditon. I have a learning disability and they are very reluctant to do anything about the future or my past grades. I have taken AP Euro (i got a 4 on the exam) I took AP US (grade not yet known) and I took AP English (I got a 3 on the exam). What are my chances of getting into the university? I have asked my counsler and he wont help and I have no clue about colleges since I wasn't born here (I was born in Ukraine but I am a US citizen). So what are my chances on acceptance?

One additional question to those who can answer this. How likely would it be able for me to sue the college into accepting me on the stance of discrimination against the mentally disadvantaged?

From Mexico...for simplicity of the question.
How much money does it take to come to America ?
How long does it take ?
What else if anything has to be done ?

The reason i'm posting this question, is because I constantly see people ranting about illegal immigrants...how much they hate them because they didn't use the "front door" of America. What I would like to know....how many of you actually understand what it takes to come through the front door. Do you think the front door of America is accessible to immigrants from poor countries seeking freedom ? Why or why not ?

It seems to me, people have an ill conceived notion that it's just a matter of filling out a couple forms at the US Embassy or border crossing.....

Let's get some good responses here...this is a serious question.

Bear in mind that many immigrants come from very poor areas...they live in mud huts, they do not have computers, they do not electricity, uneducated, they don't even have birth certificates

They were successful in the late 60's as "The Move"...Three key members decided to move on and formed a classical music rock orchestra, with actual Orchetra musicians. They were inspired by the "Beatles" and paved there way with 15 albums and over 40 top 40 singles. Even firing the string section later, did not bring them down and they held on tight to their dreams...because Rock-n-Roll is King?

isn't that what many religions claim their heaven will be?
Yet there was a question recently in which many (apparent) christians said they wouldn't do away with evil if they could because then there would be no good.
So, specifically, why can't there be good without evil? How does this affect your view of the afterlife?
