Have you ever had an experience (either edifying or frightening) which you *would* have interpreted as a spiritual occurrence had you been inclined to believe that spiritual occurrences are possible. This could include--just to name a few hypothetical examples--periods of paranoia (especially at night, or in a large empty building), or euphoria, or a sense of some invisible thing outside of yourself trying to interact with you. Any other experiences you can think of would of course be welcome.

We had a fridge delivered but couldnt use it right away. When we finally plugged it in the fridge didnt feel cold. Inside the fridge at the top where the air blows there was styrofoam. We pulled what we could out but it feels as if there is still some in there and the fridge doesn't get very cold. Its hard to see in where the air blows from because the hole in the top faces the back of the fridge .The freezer works fine.
Is styrofoam normally put in there? Do i need to somehow pull out the rest of it?

I'm thinking of setting up a traditional IRA account…. I know that the maximum yearly amount I can invest is 4k, however in 2008 can I continue to invest into the same IRA account, or do I have to set up a new one (and so on for years to come)

Well...I have been trying to lose some of my belly jelly and work on my abs, but I have been having problems keeping with it, i have just started working on my abs by doing 4 sets of 50 crunches, and some other crunch workouts, but lately I have been feeling like I have gained more weight, is this normal?? Also, would it help if I started walking every morning for 30 minutes with losing my jelly belly. If i do all that and eat right will I have good results in a month? I am 14 years old and 5' 4 and I weigh 135 lbs.

PLEASE HELP!

I'm probably making this harder than it actually is, but I'm not sure.

(6.98cm - 2.83cm) X 1.7 sq. cm

Do I just multiply 4.15 cm by 1.7 sq. cm or do I need to convert 4.15 to sq. cm first?

(Oberserving significant digits, would it be 7.1 sq. cm?)

Thanks for your help!

Ok I know what you're thinking.Gee Spazz what are ya up to now? Well my friends I got kinda bored & I decided to do some research on what the majority of Americans want to do about illegal immigration.And I found these polls.The majority of them say that most Americans want some sort of legalization IF illegals learn English,pay taxes,and have been here for a few years.I would have even more but I excluded any polls from Latino based sites.

Ok I know what you're gonna say next.
"You used biased polls from La Raza!!!!"
NO I got my polls from sites like Angus-Reid ,who also has polls that say most Americans want English as our official language[totally agree]

OR you'll say
"Well how come we defeated the amnesty bill? 80% of Americans hated it."
Well for starters 46% of Americans disproved of the bill & 15% of the 46 thought the bill was too harsh on illegals.Plus the bill got a lot of bad press in the news by senators that don't even know the meaning of amnesty.

Why didn't he intercede on the behalf of those little boys getting raped and molested by their pastors? Did he turn a cold eye to what was going on in his own house? Why did he let it happen?

I won't debate with you that there is a god. I'm of the opinion YOUR god is only one of many (and not exactly one of my favorites, no offense meant) but if the bible is correct-if he's perfect, then he can't screw up right?

Then who dropped the ball so badly on THIS case? Or are you guys gonna tell me the pastors were tools of the devil and your god couldn't intervene before these kids were hurt within his own consecrated temple?

Please, serious answers. For once, I'm attempting to not be anti-christian. I'd like the same respect in turn.

I do....I mean honestly...the things those 11,12,13 year olds are wearing today, and the things they are doing on the computer....and it gets me so angry when I see them flip out their cellphones. Honestly, why does and 11,12 or 13 year old need a cellphone? They are trying to act like adults when they should be enjoying their childhood. So do you think they are annoying and if so why?
